Not since our discovery of The Kurv has a product captivated us this much. Introducing Envirosax:
To be clear, we are not affiliated with Envirosax and received no payment for this review. We simply love these stylish reusable fabric bags and wanted to share how useful and attractive they are. They’ve replaced the clunky, boxy reusable bags we used to lug around, and made bringing your own bags feel effortless and even enjoyable.
Reusable bags used to feel awkward and bulky: mismatched straps, floppy shapes, and the inevitable spill when one dropped while we carried three different bags into the store. Then a friend pulled an Envirosax from her purse at the register. It was the size of a folded phone, rolled and snapped tight, and unfolded into a roomy, attractive bag. The compact design means you can stash a few in your purse so you’ll actually have them when you need them.
She explained she buys them from Envirosax and that strangers often compliment them at checkout. The sleek fabric, comfortable straps and bold prints immediately won me over. Unlike larger reusable bags that get left in the car or at home, these roll up small enough to keep with you all the time, eliminating the “I forgot my bag” problem.
For context, our frequent forgetting of reusable bags contributes to large-scale waste:
- Approximately 380 billion plastic bags are used in the United States each year—more than 1,200 bags per person annually.
- Americans use over 10 billion paper bags each year, and about 14 million trees are cut down annually to produce paper bags.
- The United Nations Environment Programme estimates roughly 46,000 pieces of plastic litter float in every square mile of ocean.
Small changes add up. Adopting stylish reusable bags is an easy step we can all take.
At around $8.50 each, Envirosax bags are affordable given their durability and convenience. Rolled up they measure roughly 4″ by 1.5″—about the size of a cell phone—and unfold to approximately 19.5″ x 16.5″. Each bag can support up to 44 pounds. They also come in many designs and styles, so using them feels like a personal choice rather than a chore.
There are refined black patterned options for a sleek look:
Masculine designs are available for those who prefer subtler tones:
And bold, bohemian prints for anyone who likes a vibrant statement—sometimes offered with discounts.
They also offer solid colors for minimalist tastes, kid-sized bags, multi-packs for families, and organic options made from bamboo for shoppers who want a natural fiber choice. The organic bags are pricier but appeal to those seeking a different material and construction.
We chose blue and green patterns for ourselves. Since my partner and I often shop together, we split choices between styles, but those who frequently shop separately might prefer selecting a bag their partner is comfortable carrying. Even so, the bags are sturdy enough that anyone can offer to carry them when they’re full.
In short, Envirosax bags combine practicality, durability and style. They make bringing reusable bags simple and attractive, which helps reduce single-use bag waste. We’re excited to keep a few rolled up in purses and backpacks and to encourage others to do the same.
