Does anyone know where you can buy them online? I did check the archive, someone mentioned Lakeland, but it seems they're no longer stocked

Not quite the same but i do have a jute bag from the royal horticultural society gardens which i use for shopping, its very good. very strong.

GG, the reason I want a string one is so I can carry it around at the bottom of my handbag, in case I pass a supermarket

I have a black one I bought in Superdrug for 99p - it folds up in manner of kagoul into a zip pocket at the front - it's weeny when folded.

I've searched in vain for them since though

Now, those are nice. WWB, can you put the strap over your shoulder, or is it too short? I want a shoulder strap ideally.

No, the straps are too short to go over your shoulders, they're hand-held.

WigWamBam · 30/09/2005 14:06

There's a string shoulder-bag here .

Manufactum do some cool ones too, but no shoulder straps.. steel thread!
