I'm not a plastic bag by Anya Hindmarch

53 people recommended this item

Description

Kind of obnoxious how self-congratulatory this bag is about eco-consciousness, but I kind of feel that you earn the right to be smug when you go out of your way to be as green as possible, picking up the slack for others around you.

Paper Nor Plastic - Reusable Bags

9 people recommended this item

Description

This is a great play on the paper grocery bag, which I can still get at Trader Joe's and Whole Foods but still feel a little guilty for needing.

Hemp/Organic Cotton Grocery Bag

3 people recommended this item

Description

I love the understatement here, free of political sloganeering or hip references. This bag simply works and is produced with materials that address the same sensibilities as the use of the bag itself.

HERO BAGS: reusable canvas market bags

First to recommend

10 people recommended this item

Description

I loves HERO BAGS! This reusable canvas bag is a great eco-friendly replacement for a plastic bag. With the gusseted sides groceries don't get squished together and the flat bottom keeps the bag standing up in the car. The logo is fun and unisex which means my husband finally has a bag that doesn't have a cheesy store logo on it!

Bravo Green Bag

First to recommend

Description

Simple and to-the-point, this bag says just enough to make your obligatory political statement while picking up a few items at the store. The interior of the bag also features a clever green Bravo bubble.

San Francisco MapTote

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

MapTote specializes in fun, hand-drawn maps of various cities and, in the case of New York, neighborhoods. The drawings are lowbrow and refreshingly mundane, adding a nice ironic twist to a place like Los Angeles, which is rarely depicted so unglamorously.

Feministing Tote Bag

Description

I don't know much about this blog, but this logo is amazing for its ability to subvert stupidity.
