Ethical & Fair Trade Accessories

Electronic Accessories

I wish I could say that below you could find shopping links for ethical electronics. Unfortunately, to date,

I have been unable to find any such thing. (Go to our "Electronic Sweatshops" page to learn more.) But the good news is for the electronics you already own, there are many options for ethically-made and fair trade messenger bags, tablet sleeves, cell phone holders, laptop cases and more. And, in contrast to the electronics industry and their sweatshops, these products were produced with love and care shown to the artisans who made them.

(NOTES: Prices and availability may change without notice. If you buy through some of these links, a small amount will come back to help support our mission.)
