This spacious laundry bag features a wide bottom and a wide opening at the top, which means it stands on its own as you load and unload the laundry. When not in use, the bag can be folded down flat.
The washed paraffin cotton fabric has a nice feel and texture to it, at the same time letting the bag water repellent properties. The top of the bag has an integrated piano wire wrapped inside a plastic cover, which holds the beautifully curved shape of the bag’s mouth.
Although the bag is designed for transporting laundry to the laundromat and back (coin laundries are very popular in Japan), this bag is big enough to fit grocery shopping and sturdy enough to transport pretty much anything bulky.
Bags by Bagworks Co. are durable and functional, made to be used daily for long periods of time.
