Great effort to support the environment. I’ll buy one to support this. 👍🏼

This is the best thing I have ever seen! I love your entrepreneurial spirit while making the world a better place! I am so impressed!

Awesome idea! I love the belts and dog collars. I would totally wear a bracelet also also. ✌💜

Nice feel good story, thank you 😁

Tips on pulling out the core?? I tried on an old rope of mine and it is too tight!

[@SomeKidFromBritain]

I like the idea

[@wonder4ful]

[@tedmoy]

I'm going to buy one just because...
