Design & Functionality
Ideal for grocery shopping and transporting everyday items, you can take this smart tote with you everywhere. Plus, hemp gets softer with age and resists stretching and tearing. It features an innovative dual set of handles, so you can carry it over your shoulder or by hand. Using both sets, you can easily carry several bags at once.

These bags are tough, lightweight and fold into a tiny compact size. Stash one in your purse or bag for unexpected purchases, or buy a set and store one inside another in your trunk. You’ll never forget your reusable bags again! 


Materials
Made from 5.2 oz. 55/45 hemp/cotton fabric. Hemp fabric is 4x stronger than cotton fabric of the same weight. Unlike conventionally-grown cotton, hemp has no known insect enemies and a high resistance to disease, so there is no need to use harmful pesticides in its cultivation.

Hemp products outlast their competition by many years. Not only is hemp strong, it holds its shape, which means less stretching and more durability. Better yet, hemp doesn’t wear out- it wears in. The more you use your hemp products are used, the softer they get. Learn more about hemp.

Hemp fabric is very resistant to degradation from mold, bacteria, salt water, sunlight, abrasion and chemicals. At the end of this bag's life, the organic hemp fabric is 100% biodegradable, unlike synthetic fabrics or tanned leather. Hemp is a very tough, natural material that can take the abuses of normal life, lasting much longer than conventional fabrics.

Sustainability
Super durable and machine washable, this bag will get countless uses and eliminate the need for thousands of use-and-toss bags over its lifetime. All of our reusable bags are built to last, helping you save both money and natural resources.

Hemp grocery bags

by Lawrence T - 04/2010

well made, nice looking

by Chloe O - 03/2010

I was looking for simple classic bags and found exactly that with these hemp bags. one of the reasons I chose these over others was the Dual-Handles which I have found to be unnecessary to me. The long handles get in the way and make it harder to find the smaller handles. These would be good for perhaps shopping at a farmer's market, but just from check stand to cart to car there is no need for a shoulder strap. They seem to be well made but each bag has two large tags, one sewn on either side, I think I may cut off the tags.

too many tags!

by amanda t - 02/2010

2 out of 3 customers found this review helpful

i really like the bag, but was distressed by the number of unnecessary tags- two fabric tags on the outside, one says "hemp" which is OK, i guess, and the other with an "acme bags" graphic- i hate carrying or wearing things with ANY company name on them...sorry, just won't do it. and inside, two non-biodegradeable, non-recycleable tyvek/plastic tags. yuck! totally not environmental at all. not only have i had to remove all the tags from the bags i bought (i silkscreened hundreds for a fundraiser) i thought of all the extra effort of attaching the tags in the first place. what a waste! and why do the bags look so plain and nice on the website?

These bags are amazing!

by jo k - 09/2009

These bags are amazing! I use them for everything including groceries, library books, and as pool bags. I have had my bags for over a year and they hold up great no matter how much stuff I load into them. They are comfortable to wear and easy to carry. One warning: make sure to wash them in cold water only and hang to dry. I washed a few and put them in the dryer and they shrunk up significantly (I think the instructions warn you not to do this).

I love my ACME Bags

by Debra L - 09/2009

I love my ACME Bags. They are strong and with the dual-handles, allow me to sling them over my shoulders, or just carry them by hand. I love that they are made using Fair Trade standards and with hemp.

This bag was difficult to pack at the supermarket

This bag was difficult to pack at the supermarket. The sides did not stand up well so maybe some spray starch will help.

I am very happy with these plain black tote bags

by Jennifer T - 07/2009

I am very happy with these plain black tote bags. The dual handles make them very convenient and they are sturdy and durable. I've had trouble getting my husband to "remember" the reusable bags in his trunk, but he likes and uses these.

The bag is really great

by Carolyn S - 06/2009

The bag is really great. I like the size and the double handle, but actually wish the handles were a little wider. I have to walk up a flight of 60 stairs to get to my house. So, I try to take one trip which means about four bags of groceries. This is when I realized that the long handles could be beefed up. Otherwise, nice texture, good construction and easy to screen print on!

I absolutely love mine!

I absolutely love mine! I have had mine well over a year and a half and they aren't showing the slightest bit of wear. The shoulder straps make them very versatile totes and you can really load them up.
