Made from a lightweight polyester, they have reinforced seams in order to carry the weight of two plastic shopping bags.<\/p>\n<p>The most striking feature (besides that they roll up really small) is the sheer number of cool designs they come in. The picture is of the one I&#8217;ve got, Mikado #5; however they have many designs in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.envirosax.com\/pages\/products.php?icat=1\">Graphic Series<\/a> (Mikado, Retro Graphic, Monochromatic, Flora, Amazonia, and Retro Kitchen). They also have a big Kids range (as in a big range, not a range for big kids&#8230;). My favorite being the <a href=\"http:\/\/usa.envirosax.com\/pages\/products.php?icat=25\">Dogasaurus<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->If you prefer your bags plain, they have the <a href=\"http:\/\/usa.envirosax.com\/pages\/products.php?icat=27\">Greengrocer<\/a> series of bags that are all one color. Finally, the <a href=\"http:\/\/usa.envirosax.com\/pages\/products.php?icat=5\">Organic<\/a> series has bags made of Bamboo\/linen, just linen or hemp.<\/p>\n<p>At the moment they&#8217;re including a free 3-4 minute shower timer with every order. Cool bags, and their brochures are made on recycled paper with soy-based ink &#8211; I always like that too. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.envirosax.com\/\">Check them out<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Read more about Reusable Shopping Bags:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/ecolocalizer.com\/2008\/03\/16\/nordstrom-bags-go-green\/\">Nordstrom Bags Go Green<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/amystodghill.greenoptions.com\/2007\/07\/23\/daily-tip-just-say-no-to-the-plastic-bag\/\">Daily Tip: Just Say &#8220;No&#8221; to the Plastic Bag<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/planetsave.com\/blog\/2008\/02\/16\/more-cities-and-stores-banning-plastic-bags\/\">More Cities and Stores Banning Plastic Bags<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Editor&#8217;s note: OK, most of us probably don&#8217;t really consider shopping bags an accessory.
