Innovative Bags from around the world!

As you know, we love talking about bags over here. After all, they are pretty important to us. Did you know that most families will only buy boxed cereal? Inside every box is a BAG of cereal! If you think about it, that’s just double packaging. We’re trying to get people to give our cereal bags a chance and help give our planet a well deserved break. Sure, boxes are recyclable, but just think about all of the unnecessary energy and resources that are used to make them in the first place! And, recycling uses valuable resources too.

This got us thinking, are there any other bags out there that are trying to change how people think? What about bags that are just plain interesting, innovative, or simply pretty cool? Bags can be all of these things, while being more earth friendly. Here are a few snazzy bags that caught our attention:

• Clever Little Bag

  This clever little bag was launched back in 2010, but it is still a very cool concept that we had to share. Puma® decided to find ways to reduce packaging and decided to tackle the shoe box! Great video and statistics on how this bag is a better package than the shoebox.
• Sustainable Design and the Plastic Bag Shoes

  What happens when top students from Jerusalem’s Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design decide to work on sustainable product designs? Plastic bag shoes, of course! The artist who produced the shoes calls plastic bags “the perfect raw material.” Perhaps some Frosted Mini Spooners®’ boots are in order.
• The Hobo Lantern
  Just in case you need a bag AND a lamp at the same time.

So tell us. What is YOUR favorite bag?
