"Catalog Critic – Best Value" - The Wall Street Journal
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).

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.

Envirosax Product Name & Product Number
I bought two of these bags, and love them! They are very strong, and hold quite a bit. I have received compliments on the bags every time I use them. The best feature of these bags is being able to fold them and stick them in my handbag- I alwasy have one with me. I would highly recommend this item!

Big, pretty and tough
These are the best bags around. A big bag that can hold almost more than you can carry, with long handles enough handles to carry on your shoulder. It's sturdy fabric in great patterns, and they roll up into a handy package that you can carry in your pocket.

Easy and convienent
I really like this bag. It easily fits in my purse and I always have it with me. It is bigger than I expected it to be (I figured it would be fairly small if it fit in my purse) and is able to hold a lot! And the floral design is cute. I recommend this bag.

I really like the 'sax'
I really like the 'sax'. Easy to fold into a tiny bit that fits in my purse. Even when packed full- heavy weight and all- it's been comfortable/easy to carry; so far very very sturdy/well made. I've been using it almost daily now for 2 weeks. The only negative: After I purchased it on your website, I saw the exact same product at a local upscale 'bricks and mortar store' for about 1/3 lesss. wish I had saved myself a few dollars!

Saw a relative with one of these bags and immediat
Saw a relative with one of these bags and immediately ordered some for myself and as gifts. Terrific patterns/colors, very useful size for grocery shopping, large handles are well-sized for slinging the bag on your shoulder. Each bag easily holds three cardboard half-gallons of milk without threatening to rip. Fabric is durable and looks like it would be easy to toss into the washer if dirty. Bag is also well-suited for storing in the bottom of my purse (rolls up very small) and is useful for carrying numerous small purchases when running errands. I love them.

Dear Team at Reusable Bags: I have had a chance
Dear Team at Reusable Bags: I have had a chance to use all of the bags I ordered and I must tell you that I am thrilled with this product line. I love the designs, I love the spaciousness of the bag itself, I love the strength of the bags. The first time I used the bags I felt like I was doing a good thing for the environment but the best part was when the cashier asked me how many bags I was using and took 5 cents off my bill for each bag. It turns out I did a good thing for myself as well. I will be back to order more bags!! Thank you for what you do.

I love the bag and have 3 that I keep in my purse
I love the bag and have 3 that I keep in my purse or coat pockets they are light weight and strong. I've had many compliments on them from other customers or baggers. One thing I found, is the handles tend to bunch up and get uncomfortable in my hand when I walk home from the store with a few items. I'm not sure how to fix that without adding bulk or weight to the bag.

The Envirosax is awesome, especially with the roll
The Envirosax is awesome, especially with the roll and snap feature. There is no separate pouch to get lost. The Envirosax is much more compact than cotton string bags and it truly lives up to the "pop it in your purse" hype, except for me it works the other way as well. If I must carry several separate items such as my purse, lunch bag, computer, and a book or clipboard, I just whip the Envirosax out of my purse, unfold it and dump all the smaller items into it. Thus I only have one item to carry instead of several.

I have a close group of friends and we have a holi
I have a close group of friends and we have a holiday party every year. I got each person one of these Envirosax in a print that suited their personality. They were a BIG HIT! Everyone loved them. I got two for myself! My favourite thing about using these bags is the reduction of shopping bag clutter in my car and home!

We purchased 2 of these bags AND LOVE THEM !! They are small enough to fit in a pocket and roomy enouch (and strong enough) to actually carry 2 gallons of milk home from the store. The handles are comfortable and style is really nice. My wife loves them.

I gave this as a gift and the recipient loved it! Aside from the cute design, she like the lightweight, compactness for which she could keep it in her purse, and also the shoulder straps.

Very easy to stash away in a bag or pocket - light
Very easy to stash away in a bag or pocket - light weight and very compactable! Variety of designs makes it good for everyone. Washable and holds lots of stuff, so it's been great for many purposes so far.

I ordered 3 bags as gifts
I ordered 3 bags as gifts. Twice I was contacted to choose different colors or wait until after Christmas. When I finally received the three bags that I did order I took one out immediately because I was interested in seeing what the product was like. The first one I opened, the plastic snap broke off so it can not be closed when compacted. I chose not to open the other two for fear the same thing would happen before they were even given to their recipients. The bags themselves seem good but I have not tested them with stuff in them.

I've tried lots of reusable bags and Envirosax are
I've tried lots of reusable bags and Envirosax are my favourite. They hold lots of items (about 3 plastic bags worth) and can hold over 40 lbs. They're water resistant. I like the fact that they roll up in a small pouch that can be carried in a purse (so you never forget them and never lose a pouch). The bags aren't wrinkled when you unroll them (unlike some other brands) and come in lots of cute designs.

I really like how this rolls up very tiny so it's
I really like how this rolls up very tiny so it's easy to throw in your purse and serve as reminder to NOT use plastic. I pulled mine out at Old Navy the other day and I think I about gave the cashier a stroke!! She asked me about 3 times if I was sure I didn't need a bag.
