[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I usually carry something handmade I bought at a fair trade store or similar. I don’t really care what that says about me.[/quote]

My last purse was a handmade fair trade one and it ended up being awful.  The interior lining was not tightly fitted enough to the purse so that little things would get caught in the wrinkles of the lining and I would think I had lost whatever it was.  And the natural dye ran when it got wet and everything in my purse ended up sort of ruined.  I was sad because it was cute but I had to trash it which didn’t end up being very environmental of me.  My replacement purse was from a smaller artisan leather works type place so I’m hoping not made by sweatshop labor but someplace with better quality control.  
It does always surprise me that that these places that charge many hundred or thousands for a bag can’t guarantee that they meet fair labor standards.  Would it really cut into their bottom line to pay the worker sewing the bag a little more?  Maybe some of them do, but I never see that information in a way that is easy to discover.  [/quote]
