YAK PAK

With more than 3 million U.S. billboards a year sent to landfills, New York-based bag purveyor Yak Pak partnered with TerraCycle to create eco-friendly Billboard Bags. Each bag is made from a different cut of a billboard, so no two are the same.

The collection includes totes, messenger bags, backpacks, laptop sleeves, and wallets. Best Buy and Urban Outfitters stores sell most Yak Pak pieces for less than $35.
