If you’re here, it means you’re the proud owner of a new pair of Vogs (congrats!), shipped in our fun and fabulous Fluevog mailer (lucky you!). That, or you’re a courier whose curiosity got the better of them. Either way, welcome to you both.

We’ve always been about putting our best foot forward (which, in Fluevogs, usually means both of them) — so it’s only fitting that our packaging get an upgrade too. But these mailers are more than just their good looks. What you have in your hands is a biodegradable, 100% compostable shipping bag. They’re cool, eco-conscious, and kind of corny (and not just for their top-notch puns and wordplay).

The compostable with the mostable

Plant-based. Reusable. Sworn protector of Fluevog shoeboxes.

Made from plant-based materials including corn starch and corn waste, and fully biodegradable plastics, these compostable mailers are stylish and sustainable. Simply toss them into your compost at home or a municipal composting program and watch them break down completely (like us rewatching Up, but a lot less awkward) in about 180 days — leaving behind nutrients for a happier earth, and good karma for a happier you.

Plus, they’re printed using water-based, non-toxic inks, which is always good. We don’t know about you, but we’re all for less toxicity in our lives, not more. These mailers also come with an extra adhesive strip so you can feel free to reuse them for a return/exchange if needed. And of course, as they’ve been entrusted with the crucial task of helping protect your precious Fluevogs on their journey to you, we’ve made sure our compostable mailers are as durable as they are pretty!

The nitty-gritty: Our compostable Fluevog mailers are made from 30% corn starch, 10-15% PLA (polyactic acid made from corn waste and other plants), and 55-60% PBAT (a durable, biodegradable polymer that decomposes without leaving behind toxic residues).
