These days, tote bags are easy to find – who doesn’t have one in their closet? However, it’s hard to find a quality tote bag that you’ll actually want to use day after day. Baggu’s range of reusable shopping bags will put those cheap souvenirs gathering dust in the back of your closet to shame.
Baggu bags are virtually indestructible with normal use, very roomy, and stylish enough to take to the office, the grocery store, and just about anywhere. Whether you’re looking for a canvas bag to wear over your shoulder or a durable nylon bag to wipe down after each use, Baggu offers a huge selection of quality options so you’ll never buy a cheap, low-quality bag again.
This reusable bag is easy to carry, surprisingly durable, and can hold up to 50 pounds. Once you’ve unloaded your groceries, you can wipe them down or machine wash them, then pack them into a small suitcase.
This durable tote features a 40-inch adjustable shoulder strap and a top handle for a variety of carrying options. However, the thin canvas material may allow you to feel the contents of the bag or even get a prick.
The Baby Baggu takes everything we love about the standard Baggu and makes it smaller and more convenient for little ones to use. This bag is easy to clean and holds up to 50 pounds. It comes in a variety of fun patterns.
We recommend three Baggu bags: the Baggu Zip Duck Bag, a canvas bag with two top handles and an adjustable cross-body strap; the Standard Baggu, a vinyl bag designed to replace plastic shopping bags; and the Baby Baggu, a smaller version of the Standard Baggu that measures 18 inches by 10 inches and is 4 inches thick. Baggu bags are so popular with employees that Wirecutter even made Duck Bags with our logo as corporate gifts.
While these bags are slightly different from each other, they all share some common hallmarks that make us prefer Baggu:
