Sun Day Tote Bag by The Jacksons

These bags are 100% jute, which is a strong plant grown locally in Bangladesh. The nature of this material means that the bags can withstand intense use and the test of time. And after a long and happy life, they can biodegrade on the compost.

Using jute is also a clever option when thinking about our carbon footprint and the climate impact of our products. Indeed, jute grows much quicker than cotton (it can be harvested every 4 to 6 months) and requires much less water. Studies suggest that jute is beneficial to the soil and air of the area, acting as a carbon sink.*

Sustainability is a long journey and we know we are miles away from perfect but choosing jute as the main material of our products, is a promising step towards a fairer, more sustainable method of production.

In a nutshell, these bags are the perfect option for a fun but mindful shopping alternative, as you can take them  to cary your holiday essentials, your everyday go-to, or for shopping and travelling. They are a joyous stylish feature for your wardrobe or even as home decor.

Why we love The Jacksons at HAVEN 

Based in London, The Jacksons create playful bags with purpose and intention. Founder Louise Jackson built a partnership in 2012 with women in Bangladesh to create handcrafted bags.

The Jacksons boutique is located in Notting Hill and since 1998, the brand has brought bright color and eclectic accessories to locals. As a former costume designer, Louise values style but is especially focused on creating sustainable and durable pieces that make a statement. The Jacksons bags start conversations, elicit laughter and bring light to the wearer. We couldn’t resist welcoming the spirit that Louise brings to customers with these bags in our Haven boutiques.
