| 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. |

 Nice Size, But Not For Me. November 16, 2008
E. Brooks (Dallas, Texas)
Received these bags fairly quickly. They are about twice the size of regular plastic grocery bags. I shop at Kroger and experience a bit of difficulty with these bags staying on the bag rack at self-checkout as well as the baggers having difficulty as well. I still feel a little clumsy with the bags until I can get enough items in them to have them stand on their own. In addition, I keep losing the pouches and wished that somehow they were integrated with the bag. It could be the way the bag stations are designed at the store, but I ended up getting the reusable bags that are the same shape as a brown paper bag. Although they are smaller, they can stand up on their own when empty and generally more convenient for me.

BAGGU Reusable Shopping Tote - 6-Pack Even the boxboys love these bags. Washable, easily folded back into the little cases. I carry 4 in my purse at all times. The others are in my car if needed. I bought the cobalt blue. Very roomy and sturdy.

Baggu Ripstop Nylon Rules! October 13, 2008
Bag Lady (Wisconsin)
These are by far the BEST bags yet to minimize plastic bag use. I keep them in my car and one in my purse for unanticipated shopping. Since I am a little bit obsessive, the variety of colors are great for organizing your grocery store purchases. They are great for Christmas presents.
 Stylish, but seperate pouch is a hassle October 9, 2008
Russell Dicker (Seattle, WA)
The Baggu works great for what it is and is (for a bag) surprisingly stylish. I've only had mine for a few months, but I find that it holds a substantial amount and seems very durable. I have also found it comfortable to carry.
My main complaint, and something that is not clear from the pictures on Amazon is that the pouch is completely separate. The bag does not fold up into the little pouches you see. Instead you fold up the bag and insert it into the separate pouch. This isn't a huge deal, but I'm concerned that I'll lose the pouch.
