Flip & Tumble

Flip and Tumble makes cool eco-friendly reusable shopping bags that collapse to a small ball (and can therefore be easily stored in your purse). Much like the popular Baggu bags, they are made of sturdy ripstop nylon and come in a variety of colors, but they have some added design details that make me like them that much more.

The creators, Hetal Jariwala and Eva Bauer, met at Stanford's Product Design grad program. They came up with the idea for the bags after realizing that many people buy reusable bags for the market, yet often forget them at home. Since the bags are so compact, they can be kept in a purse for shopping on the fly—hopefully solving this problem.
