Maptote is the brainchild of fashion stylist Rachel Rheingold and cartographer Michael Berick. After a trip to Europe, they were inspired to create something that reflected their love for travel, maps and design. The cotton totes are silk screened with fun schematic maps of various cites around the U.S. and can be used for carrying groceries or as a cute gift for everyday use. We love them for their green appeal and, at only $12 apiece, they are an inexpensive way to display your pride in the city of your choice. Bags can be ordered directly at www.maptote.com and custom cities are available for purchase.

I have just come across this site and have already enjoyed what I have seen and read. I just love the reusable carry bags, with their map designs, more and more people are using these usable carriers instead of the plastic bags, when doing their shopping,as people are becoming more aware of the environment concerns. Recycling has now become the new fashion and there is nothing better that having a funky bag like these to carry you goods in.
