Linda Loudermilk Men's Collection

Updated Aug 17, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

When it comes to fashion, girls have all the fun! And in the realm of eco-fashion, until now, all a guy could hope for was organic cotton t-shirts and jeans without much style. With the launch of Loudermilk Men from the LA-based eco- extraordinaire fashionista Linda Loudermilk– "the fearless urban male who doesn't need a gas guzzler to prove himself" can go green with clothing "grounded in sharp tailoring and clean lines". "It's a mix of Saville Row inspired suitings, with t-shirts and dress shirts to mix and match". Linda says it best, "Loudermilk Men is made in the tradition of the most expensive suit you can buy. It has a very British look combined with a gothic Belgian flare. My menswear is designed for men who are not afraid to express themselves through their clothing."

SIGG Sportbottle

Updated Apr 16, 2007

70 people recommended this item

Description

There’s a big need to reduce the amount of plastic. Plastic is an oil-based product, so the production of plastic adds to the world’s carbon footprint plus the toxic byproducts are quite scary. Plastic also has “downstream” effects not known by many people. www.plasticdebris.org and www.ecologycenter.org/iptf/ are two sites to help educate the public of these side-effects of using plastic.

SIGG bottles are extrusion-pressed from a one-piece aluminum blank, which results in uniform, seamless walls. The SIGG bottle has acquired cult status. The company started in Biel, Switzerland in 1908. Since 1998, SIGG has concentrated on its core business: drinking bottles that deliver ultimate customer benefit. SIGG bottles currently enjoy 70% brand recognition in German-speaking countries and lead the European market. SIGG is the brand leader for comprehensive, high-quality drinking systems for leisure and sports use. The SIGG website has a great graphic that shows how the bottles are made. The bottles are widely available throughout the United States and other countries around the world.

LA Denim Atelier

Updated Apr 16, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

Seems like denim is the new casual hipster suit – everyone is wearing them to the office, parties and special events. There’s plenty of covering about the negative environmental and social effects by the production of jeans, from chemicals to dyes to sweatshop labor.
But if you are a denim lover, like me, you just can’t live without that urban-chic-look that a great pair of jeans gives, especially if you also love to wear boots.

My absolute favorite jeans are from Los Angeles Denim Atelier – super sexy with the much needed masculine style in fashion. Born, bred and based in Los Angeles, LA Denim Atelier’s collection is cut, sewn and washed in the heart of the USA’s denim hotspot. The jeans capture the free-spirited excitement of LA. Best place to buy the collection is at Atrium NYC in New York City where you are buy an exclusive line of LA Denim made only for Atrium.

Love someone? Reduce global warming for them with Terra Pass.

Updated Apr 16, 2007

3 people recommended this item

Description

TerraPass is the brainchild of Dr. Karl Ulrich at the University of Pennsylvania. Karl launched TerraPass in October 2004 as a way to help everyday people reduce the climate impact of their driving. It might seem there's nothing you can do about global warming. The problem is just too big. Their goals are to have one million members and offset ten billion pounds of CO2 emissions. Use TerraPass to reduce your carbon footprint to zero.
When you buy a TerraPass, your money funds renewable energy projects such as wind farms. These projects result in verified reductions in greenhouse gas pollution. And these reductions counterbalance your own emissions.
