Product Description: 
| 
| Called the "It bag of the future" by Teen Vogue, this stylish and ridiculously practical bag (sold in packages of 3 and 6) is one easy step in helping save the planet. Baggu ("bag" in Japanese) is machine washable, and folds up into it's own pouch small enough to tuck into your handbag or pocket. Made of super-tough ripstop nylon in bright, fun colors, it's the re-usable bag that's eco-chic. | | Photos courtesy of Dan Martensen. | Why Baggus are so great? You want to replace your old friends, the paper & plastic bags, with something that does their job without creating needless waste or harming the environment. Using one Baggu for one year replaces 300 to 700 disposable bags. -
One Baggu holds the contents of 2 to 3 plastic grocery bags. Six bags can hold a whole cart full of groceries. -
Baggu Bag handles are the perfect length: you can hold them in your hand, on your forearm, or over your shoulder. -
They are made from super strong rip-stop nylon (holds 25 lbs) so they are light (2 oz) and compactible. They fold into a flat 5 by 5 inch pouch that easily slips in a purse or pocket. That way they are always handy when you need them. -
Baggu bags have a nice big gusset in the bottom so they will sit flat when they are filled (good for eggs & milk.) |  | Smart Design
Baggu was designed by mother-daughter team Joan and Emily in California. They both saw the need for a better reusable bag, and after dozens of prototypes, came up with a solution that makes using reusable bags stylish, practical and easy. | | Baggu is great whether you shop on foot or drive to the store, you always need to have a bag or two that fold up small and can be carried in your purse, ready for an unexpected errand. |  |  | We use lightweight, hard working fabrics to make bags that will perform years of service in all of our daily toting tasks: groceries, pharmacy purchases, gifts, and books, and pet food, and clothes and ... All the tons of things we find ourselves accepting a disposable bag to bring home. Changing our own shopping habits is one small thing we can do to make a difference. We hope you feel good every time you use your BAGGU. | Plastic Bags & the Planet
The average family brings home 1,000 bags every year. Most of those bags end up in land fills. That really adds up - 100 billion plastic bags are sent to landfill in the US each year. In landfills, it can take up to 1000 years for a bag to decompose. Plastics don't biodegrade, they photo-degrade, breaking down into tiny toxic pieces that contaminate soil and water or harm wildlife. Every time you use your Baggu bag instead of plastic or paper you are doing something good. |

Customer Reviews
Very functional, durable, and attractive ~ and good for us!
While I am a big fan of plastic shopping bags (I know, I know, but they are so handy for the little trash cans in the bathrooms and such), these bags are terrific. Very durable, large capacity, and most definitely sturdier than plastic or paper. And they look great!
My only challenge now is to REMEMBER to grab these before I head into the store!

Handle not quite long enough
I like the bags, but the handle isn't quite long enough to hold in my hand and put over the same shoulder. I'm only 5'8", and I don't think my forearms are freakishly long. I also have a Reisenthel Eden bag, whose handle is long enough to put over my shoulder with the same hand. I wish the Baggu handle was just a bit longer.

Practical and Stylish
I'm usually asked about my bags when I take them to the grocery store because they don't look like the typical "green" bag that are pushed by the grocery stores. I like that they come in so many colors and that they are washable. They hold a lot and are very sturdy. The wide, extra long handles are good for two things: putting them over your shoulder like a true tote and to tie them closed while they are in my car to prevent the items from falling out during the ride home. These bags may be a little more pricey than the usual reusable grocery bag, but it's worth it because they can be used at any time for so many other reasons other than hauling groceries. The fact that they can fold up so small into their own little pouch means that I can carry one in my purse or car at all times for whatever may come up. I've even used them for putting wet swim suits into on the way home from the pool.

very handy
I like these bags. I bought them as end of year work gifts too. It would be nice if the pack came in different colors too or different color combinations. I do think it's little pricey too, but worth it anyway. They held up very well for me and are great to toss in a purse or travel bag.

My small contribution to Mother Earth!
Since I don't need or re-use plastic shopping bags, I figured this was something I can do for our environment. I purchased 12 of these sturdy shopping bags in sky blue and use them every time I go shopping. I keep one in my purse for small purchases and the rest in my trunk for grocery shopping. I take them out of the pouches they are in and carry them inside one bag. I use the little pouches for traveling. They are great for jewelry, etc.
These Baggu bags are strong, nice looking and hold twice as much as the plastic bags a lot of stores use. I am always asked where I got them!
