Ecogear’s Genus Backpack

June 2, 2009 By: Calley Pate5 Comments

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to have new content delivered to your inbox! I hope to see you on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. I have a lot of information on rock painting and cloth diapers in my archives if you're interested! Thanks for visiting!

Nice to see you again! Hope you're having a fabulous day! Can I help you with anything? Contact Me!

This was our first attempt at a video product review.  I think Big B had a lot of fun making it.  I had no idea how easy it would be to create a video with my digital camera and Windows Movie Maker. If only embedding it hadn’t taken me hours to figure out! But I did it, so enjoy! 

Product: Ecogear’s New Genus Backpack
Eco-aspects: PVC-free and Toxic-free materials used to make this backpack.  Made from a special material called Ecoweave.  I had no idea that most bags contain PVC in them.  Production of PVC releases dioxins (toxic chemicals) that are known to cause cancer, birth defects, and endocrine disorders.  A portion of all proceeds from the purchase of these bags will be donated to various organizations that help protect our environment.

My thoughts:  The material is very strong and the backpack could be useful for hiking, camping, biking, beach outings, a daddy diaper bag, kids school bag and so much more!  There are so many pockets on this bag, it’s great!  Two side pouches for water bottles.  An inner water-proof pocket for keys and identification.  MP3 pouch with port pocket for easy listening.  Ergo padding on shoulder straps, back and waist.  All around great bag…and eco-friendly!  What could be better?

For more information on Ecogear and their line of bags and backpacks visit www.ecogear-products.com.  Their bags retail starting at $39.99, not a bad price for this product and it’s versatility!
