Vincent, founder, reuseit.com™

reuseit™  Workhorse Reusable Shopping Bag, black - "Black, non-descript, portable and strong. Plus, it looks just like a black plastic bag."

Collapsible water bottles - "Totally innovative. Fill it up just like a regular bottle, fold it flat when it's empty. No more carrying around bulky bottles."

Michael - Father of our company founder Vincent Cobb reuseit.com

reuseit™ EarthTote Reusable Shopping Bag - "It's amazingly strong, totally utilitarian, stands upright and is built to last a lifetime."

Bottle Sleeve Vince's dad reuses glass beverage containers rather than investing in a reusable water bottle. To insulate and protect your glass container, we recommend a neoprene sleeve.
