Design & Functionality
Like the innovative ACME Original Workhorse, Flip & Tumble bags fold up into a tiny, attached pouch. The stretchy pouch material provides a new take on a proven design, so compacting the bag is a snap (can be done in less than 8 seconds)! This modern tote has a unique single shoulder strap design and a roomy gusset. When unfolded, the soft felt shoulder pad prevents the bag from slipping & makes carrying heavy loads even easier –reinforced stitching at the handles adds to the bag’s durability. With such gorgeous design, you’ll never go without your reusable bag.
Materials
Bag is made of durable, lightweight ripstop nylon (parachute material).
Felt shoulder pad = 100% acrylic
Stretchy pouch = 82% nylon, 18% spandex
Sustainability
Super durable and machine-washable, this bag will get countless uses – eliminating 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.

Makes me feel like a shopping Houdini!
I purchased five of these bags to complement my shopping basket and heavier canvas bags and I am SO PLEASED!! The baggers at the checkout are always surprised when I unfurl the little fruit sized pouches. They take up very little space, are strong and washable. Easy to pop in your purse for trips to any kind of store. Would definitely buy again!

I love how easy + quick it folds into a ball. I keep it in my purse for those unexpected shopping stops. I do wish it had 2 handles or a flatter bottom. It's hard to keep open + put stuff in it. That won't stop me from using it though. Overall I'm very happy with it.

Well made, engineered, practical, HOT!
Someone gave this to me for Christmas and it's my fav thing that I leave in my handbag and unfurl- so easy to use. Showed a friend and she ordered it for gift for others. Beautiful, stylish colors, compact, so easy to undo to use and put back - no folding needed.

Extremely Practical
These bags are perfect. They are small enough to fit in my purse but can hold a lot. They are deceivingly big. When you first "unroll" them, they seem small. Last weekend I went to the store and put 6 frozen dinners, 2 half gallons of milk, 6 eggs and a pound of meat all in one bag. The bag was full, but with the felt shoulder pad, it didn't hurt my arm to carry it. I would highly recommend.

Functional and well-designed
These are beautifully designed bags that stash away in the twinkle of an eye. They do emerge again crumpled, so are best used with items heavy enough to smooth them out again.

Is great product. Very convenient. Shoulder strap is so much better than smaller handles. I use for everything. This was my 2nd purchase.

love these bags
I have some of these and some of the Envirosax and I love them all. These are super easy to put back together, however I only ever put them together at home or in the car so that's not a huge deal to me. But the final product is larger than with the others that roll. It's not too bad but means I can carry 2 vs 4 envirosax in the mesh cup holder portion of my bag. They are made of super thin ripstop nylon but I think they are plenty durable. The colors are bright and fun. They hold a lot, though it's a little harder to start putting stuff in due to the fact that they only have one strap. I have been using them just as often, though, and they come in handy for my bag in case I come home with more stuff than I left with (as you do with 3 small kids!!) and great for pool/beach as well. I send the kids out with them to get the mail and they don't seem to have too much of a problem putting stuff in them. They also keep stealing the "balls" to play with. I would say the rolled up bag-ball is about the size of a baseball, maybe slightly larger.

I love this bag. I've been using canvas bags a lot, but they don't fit in my purse, so I always ended up with the on-my-way-home plastic bags. But the flip&tumble has changed everything. It's super small, rolls up nicely, and has an awesome strap that I can sling over my shoulder! I'm very happy with this bag!

Nice looking, sturdy
1 out of 1 customers found this review helpful
These bags are nice looking and quite sturdy. I like the felt patch on the shoulder strap that keeps it from slipping off. The rip-stop nylon is great because you don't have to worry about rips or tears. I just bought two more black ones to use as gift bags. I love using reusable bags as gift bags rather than buying disposable paper ones. This way the person receiving the present gets two 2 gifts instead of one! There are only 2 cons with this bag that I can see... 1. the ball it rolls up into is a bit larger than an envirosax or a chicobag so it takes up a little more room in your purse... 2. much like chicobags, the flip & tumble bags are very wrinkled when they pop out of their little ball so if that bothers you, stick with envirosax. I really appreciate the great sale price from reusablebags.com, much better deal than I would've gotten on the flip & tumble website.

Good Product
I bought 10 of these bags in various colors. Planned on just using them for the grocery store. Now we use them for much more than just bagging groceries. PROS: Well made and strong seams. Can easily carry four 2-liter soda bottles in one. The felt-like material on the shoulder strap really helps to keep the bag from slipping off your shoulder. My kids like using them as lunch sacks - different color everyday! CONS: Not that easy to put groceries into. I have to use one hand to hold the top open and the other for groceries. Needs something to hold the top open. Would be nice to have an adjustable strap to vary it's length.

Carry one with me everywhere
I love these bags, and have them in every color. I keep one in my purse at all times and they're easy to drag to the grocery store. Also good for bringing my lunch to work. People are always asking where I got them from, and grocery baggers just think they're awesome. Super durable, parachute material so you can really jam a lot of stuff in there. Best plastic bag substitute ever! The new produce bags are great too.

Fun and useful bags
3 out of 3 customers found this review helpful
I’ve been using the Acme Workhorse bags for some time. I’m a huge fan. However, I wanted to try something a little different. What I like: the colors – nice and bright; the shoulder strap – I find it easier to carry on my shoulder than in my hand, particularly if I’m at a craft fair or flea market; that it rolls into its own pocket, just like the Acme bags; they hold more than you'd think. What I’m not crazy about: the felt on the strap isn’t very helpful – maybe if it was thicker; the material is stiffer than the Acme bags - not as pleasing to touch; they are more bulky when folded than the Acme bags, so they take up more room in my handbag; they are slightly more difficult to get into their pockets than the Acme bags, I think because of the material; they are super wrinkled - your bags will look nothing like the ones featured on this page. These product images show bags that have never been rolled into their pockets. Also, the ones shown here look as though they are constructed in a way that gives it a squared off shape. This is not true. That being said, I would order them again, especially as gifts, mostly because the colors make me happy.

Rebagging
I love this little bad - the little pouch it goes into is "stretchy" fabric. Such a good idea, considering a lot of the pouches for reusable are non-stretchy and it's a chore to squeeze it all into a small pouch. Cons - one strap limits overfilling it and the lack of travel loop when it's in its pouch makes it a big more difficult to transport it. Pros - the one strap it does have is padded! That's great! Otherwise, it's a perfect bag - has all the normal conveniences for reusable bags.

Love it!
These bags are extremely easy to use - so much better than those that you have to neatly fold to get back into the case and they're small enough to keep one or two in your handbag. I gave a bunch of them as Christmas gifts.
