New Products! Rickshaw Messenger Bags, Sleeves, and Folios!
Zazzle, our print on demand partner, has partnered with Rickshaw Bag Works! What does this mean? Well, it means that you can now get really cool, custom design messenger bags, laptop & iPad sleeves, and folio planners that you can personalize with your own images and text if you want.
And, these great products are made in the US! The fabric is printed at Zazzle in San Francisco and then it is cut and sewn by hand at Rickshaw just down the street.
But, Rickshaw has been making these by hand for a while now. So, what does Zazzle offer in the mix?
Well, Zazzle has access to thousands of artists and designers (like us here at Wasootch). These artists and designers create unique custom designs and they have already created thousands of fantastic designs already! That means you can get a look that is truly, uniquely YOU and support quality made in the USA products at the same time!
Both Zazzle and Rickshaw are great US job creators… printing from Zazzle and production from Rickshaw, not to mention all the other jobs that are needed to support these, including shipping, web development, purchasing, and accounting just to name a few! So, it’s easy to buy American!
And, that’s not all. You can even create your own messenger bag, sleeve, and/or folio from scratch using your own imagination. How cool is that?
So, what exactly are these new products? First, let’s talk about messenger bags.
