Make an environmental statement and hold up your pants at the same time with this belt made from reclaimed inner-tubes. This belt features a cork interior and a rugged rubber exterior with a clip on buckle. Your purchase directly supports the Alabi Recycling co-op who works with Revy Fair Trade and is located in Santa Ana.
Alabi Recycling works with found scrap materials. Inner tubes are found tossed aside in abundance, the by vehicles that navigate the rough mountain roads whose inner-tubes need regular patching until they can't be patched. The Alabi Recycling crew will find these tubes and convert them into functional and durable accessories.
Revy Fair Trade was founded on the beliefs that all people deserve to be treated fairly, poverty should not be a death sentence, and our planet can sustain us if we care for it. Revy works with artisans in El Salvador who are among the most generous and determined people you’ll find anywhere. Emerging from a civil war, the artisans are striving to improve their daily lives and rebuild their ravaged country. Revy works with individuals and co-ops to help them earn a living wage and provide a brighter future for themselves and their children.
