We were blown away by the quality & style of Envirosax reusable shopping bags. They’re lightweight, portable, waterproof and surprisingly roomy - bag volume is bigger than other ultra-compacts we offer and each holds about double what you can fit in a standard plastic grocery bag. Plus, they look fantastic! What better way to spread the message of environmental sustainability than with a beautiful, eco-friendly product that you'll love using? Furthermore, they’re produced by a company fully committed to the environment (more on this below).
Dimensions
Individual bag size: 17.70" x 15.75"
Individual rolled up bag size: 4" x 1.5" diameter
Design & Functionality
Envirosax are for the environmentally-conscious consumer who wants a practical, stylish option to plastic and paper bags. Design features include double-fabric handle for comfort, reinforced seams for added strength, and long handles for carrying over the shoulder. We appreciate the well thought-out details like care instructions printed onto the bag and patterns that extend from the bag body onto the handles.
Each Envirosax Graphic Series bag rolls up into a tiny, compact package so it’s easy to always have one with you - small enough to stow into a glove compartment or a handbag. To use, unsnap its closure tab and unroll. The bag expands to hold the equivalent of two grocery plastic bags. To stow, simply fold the bag into thirds, roll up (like a sleeping bag), wrap tabs and snap together. An added benefit of rolling the bag is that it smoothes out fabric creases and wrinkles, keeping it looking like new. Use the pouch included to conveniently and neatly stow all 5 bags (pouch snaps shut to secure the bags, and includes a handy loop).
Materials
Made of durable, waterproof, lightweight polyester, built for toughness and extra strength. Concerned about polyester? Envirosax decided on this fabric for its strength, durability and because it could be printed with colors and patterns that would not fade. Polyester is also highly compressible, allowing the bag to be rolled up into a compact size so that it's always easy to have one with you. The fabric has a soft, silky handle & resists abrasion well. The inks and dyes used in the printing of the graphic series bags are eco-friendly and NO carcinogenic chemicals are used. The printing process ensures that the bags will not fade when washed. Envirosax also produces an Organic Series of reusable shopping bags made from natural fibers like bamboo, hemp and linen.
Sustainability
Envirosax grocery bags are made to last and designed to be reused over and over again. Using them can help eliminate thousands of throwaway bags over the course of their lifetime. As with other Ultra-Compact shopping bags we carry, these innovative bags compress down to a tiny size for easy storage and portability so you’re more likely to have them with you.
As a company, Envirosax is committed in keeping up to date with sustainable practices around the world, and annually an Envirosax team member attends the International Conferences on Environmental, Cultural, Economic and Social Sustainability. Check out their website for informative sustainability education resources. Envirosax will even take back old bags and recycle them into stuffing and filler in mattresses, car seats, lounge suites and chairs.

Very cute and very big
These bags are very sizable --- had one in my diaper bag for the inevitable purchase, and it ended up being too big to hang off my Mommy Hook (from the stroller handle -- we have an Xplory, so it's a high handle). Definitely rates very high on the cute meter. Now that I know it's on the large side for the stroller, I've put the bag in my shopping bag rotation --- it will definitely be put to good use.

A great bag to buy

This is a very sturdy bag. Although it is listed as a child's bag, I bought it for me because I love pink. This is slightly smaller than the adult version. It is also very sturdy and it rolls up into a small parcel. I would definately recommend this

This bag was bought by me, Molly, and sent to Emily. She says she loves it. Her little girl loves pink, and Emily thought the bag was precious. As far as getting use out of the bag, she loves the size for running errands.

I ordered these cute Piggy In The Middle bags for myself because pink is my favorite color. I'm so happy with them! They hold a lot of stuff and I love that they roll right up. The other day I was at my corner store and I told the store clerk I have my own bags and when I rolled one out she was really impressed. I told her right away about your website and she couldn't wait to get off work so she could order some.

This bag is just adorable
This bag is just adorable. The design is so smart. It is also larger than expected (just slightly smaller than the "adult" version), which is wonderful. I keep it in my purse for use whenever I need a bag at a store or just carrying around jackets, etc. Highly recommended.

This sack is adorable!
This sack is adorable! We gave it to my 6 y/o daughter for Christmas and she loved it. Now she has an Envirosax bag just like mom. This "piggy" bag is sized slightly smaller, so my daughter can carry it without it dragging on the ground. We used it for transporting new toys on Christmas day. The perfect multi-purpose bag!

These bags are so cute
These bags are so cute. I get tons of compliments on them. My daughter will actually carry her own stuff using this bag! I bought several and will use them to put Christmas gifts in for my nieces and nephews, so not only do they get a reusable bag but I'm not wasting paper on wrapping!

Very cute bag!
Very cute bag! My six year old daughter uses it for carting books. I did find rolling it up and snapping to be cumbersome. (However, I'm spoiled on that front by the Acme bags). The color is fabulous and the bag is sturdy.

The kids love this bag
The kids love this bag. It lets them have their own shopping bag just like Mommy has and it gives me an opportunity to teach them about taking care of the environment, using less plastic and preserving our resources.

I have 3 of these bags in different colors/pattern
I have 3 of these bags in different colors/patterns and love all of them. They are very sturdy, and hold a lot of items. One bag I use as sort of a baby bag (bag to take to grandma's house, with cloth diapers, clothes, etc.), another I use as a Farmer's Market bag, and the third as a general shopping bag. I would highly recommend them!

I baby-sit my 21 month Granddaughter and thought this bag would come in handy toting her toys and such around. This bag is indispensable and adorable too! My Granddaughter loves to look at it and Grandma just loves to use it. I imagine I will have to get one for her also when she is a bit older, Grandma doesn’t want to give hers up! It is lightweight yet carries a lot as well as being handy to use.

The bags are great! My boyfriend gave them to me as a gift. They are great for shopping. I was able to get groceries from 3 bags into each one of them. Talk about being green :)

My 4 year old loves this bag
My 4 year old loves this bag. We take it to the library, when we go shopping and have packed it for car trips. It's strong enough for several hardback books, and is comfortable to carry thanks to the longer shoulder strap. We also love the two-sided pig design. It's a fun and durable bag--highly recommend it!
