There's the easy way and the better way. For Nemo, the easy way is to take all of our old manufacturing rejects and outdated samples and send them to the landfill. A better way is to make you a handsome Ditto Tote Bag. This bag is made almost entirely from repurposed NEMO tent samples and manufacturing seconds. The only virgin materials are the thread and edge binding. With the help of our local Easter Seals chapter, the tents were disassembled in our studio, then cut and sewn in New Hampshire. No two bags are alike. Some bags have details preserved from the original tent (zippers, webbing, guyout loops, velcro, screened logos, mesh, etc.) that may be useful or just decorative.
You can feel NEMO spirits !
This tote is really simple, but we can feel company spirit for saving resources of manufacturing. I have two tents of NEMO(ASASHI and ESPRI 2P), and the quality is the best. I always use this tote for carrying of my extra clothes at hot spa after trekking.
