Tote bags may be easy to come by these days—who among us doesn’t have a bag of bags languishing in a closet somewhere? But a quality tote that you actually want to use day in and day out is harder to find. Baggu’s line of reusable bags puts those cheaply made freebies collecting dust at the back of your closet to shame.
Baggu’s totes are practically indestructible (with normal use), incredibly spacious, and stylish enough to accompany you to the office, the grocery store, and everywhere in between. Whether you’re looking for a canvas bag you can sling across your body or a sturdy nylon bag you can wipe down between uses, Baggu offers tons of great options, so you’ll never take home a shoddy free bag again.
Convenient to carry, this reusable tote is surprisingly durable and can hold up to 50 pounds. You can wipe it clean or throw it in the wash after unloading your groceries, and it packs down into a tiny carrying case.
This durable tote has a 40-inch adjustable strap and top handles, so there are multiple carrying options. However, due to its thin canvas material, you may feel—and get poked by—the contents.
The Baby Baggu takes everything we love about the Standard Baggu and shrinks it down, so it’s easier for small kids to use. This simple-to-clean little bag can hold up to 50 pounds and comes in a range of fun and funky patterns.

We recommend three types of Baggu totes: the Baggu Duck Bag, a canvas bag with two top handles and an adjustable cross-body strap; the Standard Baggu, a vinyl tote meant to replace plastic grocery bags; and the Baby Baggu, a smaller version of the Standard Baggu that measures 18 inches by 10 inches and is 4 inches deep. Baggu totes are so beloved by so many staffers that Wirecutter has even created customized Duck Bags printed with our logo as company swag.
Though these bags differ slightly from one another, they share standout attributes that keep us beholden to Baggu:
