"Over all people were surprised about the binders. They couldn’t believe how long they lasted or how sturdy they were. I even told them you put then in the washer to test them. Most of all they loved the product name. But my favorite was a woman who’s son wants to be an artist, she wanted to get him the binders go he could draw all over them and make them his traveling art. When we gave her a sample I thought she would cry she was so happy. It made my day."

Green Back to School Supplies

Back to School Supplies can be green, strong and good looking!

Green Back to School Supplies

What you want and what your kids want isn't always the same.

Naked Binder has worked to make products that are safe for your kids to use, safe for the environment, are strong and long lasting and we toss in a big piece of awesome for the kids.  We have Back to School kits that can help save you a few dollars also.

We can tell you our binders were tested to 250,000 flexes and that the hinge is guarenteed. We can even tell you about the ones we put through a dishwasher (we still use them). We can tell you all the environmental benefits.  But in the end you need to know how they work in the hands of the worlds most vicious testers of 3-ring binders - the teenager.

"My son used it all year and it is the first binder EVER to last a full year!...I have been buying him all sorts of big binders, zippered binders, etc for at least four years and nothing has every lasted more than a semester--even the big brand names. I found your site last year by searching the internet for durable binders, to see if there was a better answer. The rolled side, rings, and closing mechanism on his binder are still going strong! The corners are getting worn from being jammed into a backpack, and there is a slight groove on top where his hand must grab it all the time. He thinks it is like a comfy pair of jeans and just getting broken in! But I think it is nice to start a new school year with new supplies--especially at your great prices! And the fact that they came from recycled materials is icing on the cake!

I will place my order today!"

Our binders not only live, they thrive in the hands of teenagers. Imagine of you only had to buy one binder for the year!  It is true.  There are products out there that are well made, reasonably priced and environmentally friendly!
