Minimalissimo

I love the vibrant colored sleeves by reWrap. The sleeves are created according to the Cradle to Cradle principle. This means: 100% reusable materials, 100% renewable energy and 100% social production. The sleeves are made of felt (98%) and yarn (2%) and are fully biodegradable. To avoid unnecessary use of materials for the label, the logo is stamped into the sleeve, a nice detail. By time the logo will slowly fade. The makers expected the use time to be 5 years and after use your sleeve will turn into compost rather than waste.

The sleeves – available for laptop, Macbook, iPad and iPhone – are sewn together in a small Amsterdam located workshop that provides employment to people with a handicap.

    Good stuff. Not as nice as the leather ones that were posted here before, but more practical and less costly.

    completely agree with the comments already made. especially the “take away the logo”. if this product didn’t have the logo stamped on it, it’d be a real winner in my book.

    It says the logo will fade away and seriously I see enought reasons to buy one already. Thanks for sharing!

    Really like this. Very well designed. Perhaps the logo could have been stamped on the inside instead, but it wouldn’t stop me purchasing this sleeve.

    I question the “take the logo away” comments.
    I think product like this is so simple that it needs logo.
    Otherwise, how do they differentiate themselves from copy-cats?
    They probably take great pride in their products, why can’t they put their name on it? I almost feel it is arrogant to say that logo should be eliminated.
    But I do agree that placement should be somewhere more discreet.

    Back to the “logo” issue/topic…I completely understand where Tg is coming from & to some level, I agree. As long as the logo is in a discreet place or if they have a logo without the name/letters (i.e. just some cool emblem/design) then I’d be okay with that. However as far as the comment: “otherwise, how do they differentiate themselves from copy-cats”… well, if they came out with a product that was completely logo free…that would be different from others because pretty much all other products/companies have logos. It’d actually be a refreshing change to see no logo (for me). My personal preference would still be to have a small tag on the inside part of the product or non at all, but that’s just my preference. I don’t think most people care about logos/names on products the way us “Minimalissimo” viewers do, so I’m sure that “reWrap” wouldn’t even think twice about this logo discussion we’re having.

    We appreciate all the comments and can say that we have spent considerable time debating whether and how to place a logo on our sleeves. We decided to stamp the logo on the sleeves in such a way that it is present, but in a very subtle way. In this case we don’t have to waste extra materials and can keep our sleeves minimalistic, since we are great proponents of minimalistic design as well!

    work very similar to that of milanese boys of Pijama (www.pijama.it)

    reminds me of The Satchel by Fabrix (www.fabrixcases.com) minus the leather parts. Very minimal.
