| 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. |

 Great bag but October 30, 2008
S. Murphy
These are wonderful bags and I love them, we use them for other things, not just groceries, like book bags, bags for the kids to tote their toys around in, they are very versitile.On the down side, these have separate storage sacks that are hard to keep track of, other bags have storage sacks attached on to the bag which is more convenient. Other than that, these are wonderful bags, and they can hold much more than traditional plastic bags, also the handles are nice and long so you can tie them if you need to keep items securly inside while transporting.
 So incredibly useful September 17, 2008
Elizabeth Robertson (Edinburgh, Scotland, UK)
I absolutely love these. I purchased a set of 3 before I moved to Edinburgh from the States. I use them constantly to bring home my shopping because I use public transport. They are roomy, strong, and weigh almost nothing. I always make sure I have 1 or 2 tucked in my purse, in case I need to run to the shop on my way home. I carry a small purse, but they take up very little room.
The only thing I would change is that the bags each have a carry case, which is great, but they are small and might easily be lost. I always try to toss the carry case into the bag when I open it up to use, but some sort of pouch which the bag could fold into itself might have been better.
Nevertheless, an excellent product, much easier to carry with you than the re-usable shopping bags that grocers are selling. Definitely a good purchase for anyone with a concern for the environment, I never need a plastic carrier bag now!
Easy To Be "Green" September 13, 2008
Trish (Mount Pleasant, South Carolina USA)
These bags are wonderful! They are strong and very well made! I carry them with me to every store I go to. They fold up small and flat and don't wrinkle easily like another bag I have used in the past. I would highly recommend them! Another plus is the wide selection of colors they come in! Baggu bags make it very easy to go green!
Simple solution to waste and clutter; August 21, 2008
R. Werner (Horton, OR USA)
I don't buy the simplistic paper or plastic argument (both are wasteful). I bought these bags because I like the idea of not having to dispose of anything when I bring home my shopping. Simple as that. Nice idea and well made. Just got to develop the habit of bringing them along.
Baggu August 18, 2008
J Durand (Carver MN)
A very good product. I carry 2 in my purse at all times. It saves from bringing home yet more bags from the store. They are very durable yet weigh nothing. They hold a lot and come in very handy.
