The Thisispaper Shop bags are produced with an expressed concern for [eco-friendly design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apex-30). The accessories are made of [vegetable tanned leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vilaasa-lifestyle) and sturdy canvas, making the products both natural and conscious of responsible manufacture.

The Thisispaper Shop label also aims to work with local community members in Warsaw, the city where the brand operates and creates its fashionable items. Given its concern with the environment, the accessories are simplistic with few embellishments aside from an imprint that reads, "What we save, saves us."

In addition to the admirable elements central to the merchandise, the knapsacks are also visually appealing with few details and basic straps. It is thus apparent that the [classic school bag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lundi-rubens-backpack) has been stripped down to its most essential parts.
