Really useful little bag, July 14, 2007
This review is from: Kiva Key Chain Tote (Apparel)
I took this bag with me on a recent trip to Italy. I used it every day and found it really indispensable, so much so that I bought another when I came home. In Italy the grocery stores charge for nags, or give you a discount for bringing your own...so the bag paid for itself on my first trip!
It is small and the fabric is thin, as others have noted; but you would be surprised at how strong it is, and how much it holds.
When the bag is stowed in its' pocket it's around 1 1/2 x 3 inches, and weighs practically nothing. It is ideal for travel, when you find yourself carrying all kinds of things, and space and weight mean a lot more.
I know I will want to have one with me whenever I travel, or go to a farmers' market, or flea market...I can think of lots of occasions where it would be useful (which is why I want 2).

Great foldable bag for shopping, December 10, 2007
This review is from: Kiva Key Chain Tote (Apparel)
I really like this bag and I own four of them. This is a collapsible bag that folds down into a pocket about half the size of a fist. My wife and I keep them in our cars in case we buy something and want to use reusable bags. As a result, we almost never use disposable plastic bags anymore. For normal grocery shopping we use canvas bags but for quick shopping trips they are great!
The material is very thin but very strong. It has to be thin to fold-up very small. After years of use I have not teared or punctured a bag. I imagine this is possible if something sharp and poky were carried in it but most bags would have the same issue. (I haven't yet ripped them after many trips to Home Depot.) The handles are strong. The bag material is still high quality when comparing bags purchased years ago and now.
There is little form to the bag and zero padding since it is so thin. Folding it up is easy. Either stuff or fold it into the pocket and zip. After unfolding the bag it will have a wrinkled appearance like in the product picture.
I use the bags all of the time and plan to buy them for family for an eco-friendly gift. (I just wish Amazon carried them in black.)
