Recycled tyre mock-croc handbag

mock%20croc2.jpgIf there was a category for 'things that look really inethical but are actually green as freshly-cut grass' this 'uptown bag' would be somewhere near the top.

The very realistic crocodile effect is made by taking old tyre inner-tubs that would otherwise sit around in landfills, and cleaned up using an environmentally friendly process. They are then shaped to look all croc-like, and finished with a faux-leather trim, open interior pocket, smooth zip fastening and a even a fabulous interior lighting system -- the latest must-have bag accessory. Yours for $210 at the Groovy Mind. [Via Ecofriend]
