Roomy fold away bag!
Great little foldaway bag. Deceiving as to how much it can hold. Would definitely recommend.

Strong
A lovely strong packaway shopping bag. Can take a fair bit of weight and feels comfortable and safe carrying it. The fabric feels very sturdy and is waterproof and washable.,The handles are wide enough to hold without cutting into your hand and long enough to carry on your shoulder. A really good shopping bag.The ethical credentials are mostly good as the bag is made from recycled plastic bottles and the label is cardboard tied with rustic string. But I can’t seem to find anywhere whether the bag itself can be recycled or not. Hopefully it lasts many years so it’s not an issue right now.A practical and spacious bag with a great piece of National Gallery art on it. Fab. Recommended

Large, strong shopping bag with beautiful print
I have a few folded shopping bags and this one with the print of ‘The Thames Below Westminster By Claude Monet’ is definitely my favourite. It can be folded into a pouch and I keep it in my handbag all the time. It is lightweight and has a great capacity. The fabric feels strong and durable. The seams seem strong and tough. The print of Monet’s work makes it different from other cheap shoppers bags. Absolutely happy with it. I don’t just use it as a shopping bag. It is a stylish tote bag.

Stunning design and with the quality to match! Perfect
This foldable pocket tote is simply divine. It has been incredibly well made using obviously high quality components and feels super sturdy and robust. I have already thrown a fair bit of weight in this over a few different shopping trips and it easily accommodates even the heavier of loads. The whole thing folds up small enough to fit in your pocket and the imagery on the outer is stunning. Absolutely nothing to dislike about this at all and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Brilliant!

Very poor construction
Very badly seen, white cotton instead of black cotton plus raw edges definitely not up to standard of similar bags I have had before. Very disappointed indeed

Useful, quite large
I got this bag to keep in the car in case I go shopping and forget my bags. It is larger than I was expecting at 19"x16" but it doesn't have a gusset bottom. It seems made of quite a stiff thick nylon. It looks nice enough and packs into itself flat, that is the theory although like all these types of things it doesn't pack as well as it arrived. My best advice is when you unpack the back take note of how it folds so that you can get it back into it's little storage case neatly, the storage case is attached to the main body of the bag so it can't get lost.

Very aesthetically pleasing and functional
Not only does it look great, but it's also incredibly practical and eco-friendly. The bag is made from high-quality non-woven polypropylene fabric, which is strong and durable yet still lightweight. The bag folds up easily and comes with a handy carry handle, so it's easy to store and transport.I've been using this bag for my grocery shopping and it's been great. It fits plenty of items and is very spacious. I love that it is reusable and machine washable too, so I can keep it clean and hygienic.The design of this bag is very stylish and I've had many compliments on it. It features a colorful design of art from the National Gallery Collection, which makes it unique. It's an eye-catching bag that stands out in a crowd.Recommended!

About as classy as a simple plastic bag can get
This is a reasonably practical plastic bag. With a bit of care and not too much origami-style effort, it folds away nicely into a side pocket or even a jeans back pocket, then unfolds into a fairly large bag with a decent capacity.The texture and fabric may be environmentally friendly (provided you recycle it afterwards) but it’s not all that nice to the touch, with a coarse feel. It’s one of those fabrics that’s quite noisy as it gets rubbed. I’m also not totally convinced by the potential durability of it, largely thanks to the relatively thin handles, and the fact that on the bag I got, some of the stitching was less than brilliant.The design I got was Claude Monet’s “The Thames Below Westminster”, though as I write this review, that option seems to have disappeared from the designs available for some reason. It’s a design that has an interesting effect when printed on a bag- much of the detail is low down and on the edge, and when the bag is full of stuff, the rounding of the shape puts an odd emphasis on the edges. It’s not a problem at all, but it does give it an odd look that a more central design, like George Stubbs’ “Whistlejacket”, probably wouldn’t suffer from.If I’d bought this bag to show it off, then I would’ve liked the National Gallery branding to appear on the bag itself, not just the label that gets cut off- but thankfully that’s not why I got it.This is official National Gallery licensed merchandise and as such, it does suffer from both ‘brand pricing’ and ‘tourist pricing’. If all you want is a foldable shopping bag and you don’t care about the art, you’ll find one of a similar quality and durability much, much cheaper than the current ten quid asking price. But if you like shopping in style, this certainly has class.
