Anything Co. Maekake Japanese Traditional Apron
Don’t be fooled by this apron’s stunning design—it’s actually been used as a functional piece of workwear for centuries in Japan. They’re produced in Toyohashi, Aichi Prefecture (the last remaining area of production in Japan) and made from durable cotton that’ll stand up to frequent use. These aprons from Anything Co. are made on century-old Toyota shuttle looms (yes, the car company, which originally started out as a loom manufacturer). They’re colored with a rich indigo using resist-dyeing techniques, which allows the original white shade of the fabric to come through in the design and not bleed or fade over time. We love how the color fades a bit with use—typically, this is a sign in Japan of well-worn beauty. The thick belts are also colored with white and red, both considered lucky colors, and are sturdy enough to offer lower back support when tied in a traditional fashion.
Kitchen Grips 2-Piece 5-Finger Chefs Kitchen Gloves
Handling hot kitchen equipment or serving dishes has never been safer than with these heat-resistant, stain-resistant, water-repellent fingered kitchen gloves. These dishwasher-safe mitts have a nonslip grip from the raised nub surface pattern, which allows for more insulation between your hand and a hot surface. The result is a better and safer grasp, even as the mitts remain soft and flexible. Made from FLXaPrene™ material and Kevlar® stitching, their surface rejects bacteria buildup and is easy to clean in the dishwasher. Plus they are water repellent to protect hands from steam and liquid burns. These functional mitts offer high-quality workmanship that has been subjected to rigorous testing standards—no detail is overlooked.
Wet-It Dishcloths
In addition to being highly durable and effective, Wet-It Dishcloths are ridiculously easy to keep clean in a wide variety of methods: Wash them in the washing machine and dryer with the rest of your laundry; add them to the top rack of your dishwasher; soak them in a boiling pot of water; or wet the cloths then microwave for three minutes to sanitize.
CapaBunga Tote+able Market Tote
Made of sturdy natural canvas and vegan leather, this tote from CapaBunga keeps even the most fragile of groceries—eggs, glass bottles, baguettes—intact on the road. The vegan leather base sits flat so loading and stacking groceries is a breeze (and no risk of your bag tipping over), and produce will remain bruise-free. Six external pockets, sized to hold anything from a glass bottle to a crate of eggs, keep your most delicate items safe. And a little harness cinches closed around a bunch of flowers, so any excess water drips to the ground, rather than on to your other groceries. Try it for gardening or art supplies, wine, bocce, sailing or fishing gear or anything else you want to tote around town (it holds up to 35 pounds).
Serrv International Recycled Feed Bag Market Tote
These unique reusable market totes from Serrv International are handmade in Vietnam from a double layer of recycled feed bags—an incredibly sturdy material. A coconut button closure keeps the tote closed and protects groceries from the elements, and cleaning up is a snap—simply wipe the woven plastic clean with a damp cloth. Due to the one-of-a-kind nature of each bag, colors and patterns may vary from what is pictured.
RÖSLE Barbecue Leather Grilling Gloves
Made of authentic leather, these heat-safe gloves protect hands and forearms from heat, flames and sparks when grilling. They come with two layers: an outer layer made from durable 100% leather, and a soft breathable inner lining made from cotton and polyester. The separated fingers allow a full range of motion—compared to the limited movement of a regular oven mitt. Safely handle your grill, pans, skewers and baskets with the gloves’ proven heat resistance and extra-long cuffs. These gloves come in one size that fits most.
Marley's Monsters Pre-Rolled UNpaper Towels
To save money and reduce waste, switch to reusable, machine-washable UNpaper Towels made from 100% cotton. We like that the cloth is soft, with an absorbent felt-like texture that helps the cloths cling to each other for more compact storage—the towels can even be wrapped around a paper towel roll. Marley's Monsters cuts its squares a little larger than standard disposable paper towels because after a few washes, the cotton material shrinks but also becomes more absorbent. The pack also has a serged edge, which means each cloth is wrapped by one long continuous thread that is unlikely to unravel and prevents fraying. Sarah Dooley's company started in 2013 when she was pregnant with her first child, Marley. She now runs Marley's Monsters in Eugene, Oregon, along with her husband, focusing on eco-friendly household products and soft goods. Wood Paper Towel Holder NOT Included
