What a 6 pack … Reusable Footprint Bags

October 29th, 2010

New stock has arrived (finally!) and we are so excited to see the launch of the 6-pack at last.  It was like Christmas come early for Hanny and I as we unpacked boxes to see the yummy colours.  The 4-packs are ever so slightly more compact, which makes them even better for handbags.  The hot pink version is really cute and the large footprint on the bags looks so stunning in teal.
There is even a cheeky “my 6-pack” version in ferrari red – maybe a great Christmas present for those guys out there?!!

Watch this space to witness the launch …

Our photo shoot for the new stock is planned for this weekend. We have sourced a fantastic local female photographer, Lisa Dalton – who like us, juggles young children and work.  Her ideas were really creative and we can’t wait to see how the new products will look in action.
Check out her website Lisa Dalton .

Footprint Bag launches “Supermarket” version

September 20th, 2010

September 2010

In our effort to bring Footprint Bag to the nation, we are pleased to say that there is now an ASDA ‘supermarket’ version of our 6-pack shopping bag pack. This is currently only available to all you lucky Yorkshire ASDA shoppers but watch this space …

We are so pleased that the nice people at ASDA love our product and recognize the difference it can make. In view of the disappointing supermarket results as reported in the Daily Mail recently (plastic bag reduction targets have been missed by supermarkets for the second year running) it is ever more important to convert shoppers to the benefits of the Footprint Bag.

For all you sitting on the fence out there (!) these include:

1.No need to change your shopping habits – you reach for a plastic bag, so reach for a Footprint Bag hanging from your trolley instead! (a favourite of my co-founder, Hanny)

2. A size for everyone and all the packs fit in a glove compartment or most handbags – so never forgotten!

3. They are strong and last indefinitely.

4. You are doing your bit for the environment.

5. Last but not least, they look rather good in your trolley!

Have a look at the Daily Mail article “50 million plastic bag rise” to see why Footprint Bag were keen to address this problem.

Mum’s the Boss - Footprint Bag Review

May 4th, 2010

Product Review: Footprint Bags

Posted By MUM’S THE BOSS on 4th MAY 2010

Footprint Bag 4 Bag multipack“Footprint Bags are an ingenious product range created by two environmentally-aware young mums, Hanny and Claire. When Hepden Bridge in Yorkshire, near where they lived, decided to become a plastic bag free town this sparked an idea, and 3 years later a fabulous and practical product – the reusable shopping bag pack. I still get excited at the anticipation that comes with expecting a parcel – especially a product for review. However, this time when the postman knocked with my parcel – a sleek and shiny black jiffy envelope – even my husband was intrigued. Inside the lovely packaging continued – wrapped in black tissue was my new 4 bag footprint bag pack. Smaller than I had anticipated, the pouch is secured with Velcro and contains 4 reusable bags – and the really clever part – a trolley coin attached to the handle so when you are shopping it hangs discreetly off the back of the trolley.

The reason for getting the smaller of the 2 was I was thinking about ‘going in to town’ trip, or to keep in the glove box of the car so when I stop to pick up some essentials on the way home I always have bags. Normally dreading the supermarket I had a lighter than usual step as I set out to road test the bags. Firstly – massively less bulky to carry than the hessian/cotton/plastic bag for life ensemble I usually cart in with me – and just hang neatly off trolley or sit discreetly in corner.

Then came the real test – would they hold enough? In fact they are a great size – larger than a carrier bag – but not so large you can’t then lift them up! The shape is great and very flexible, and the handles are wide and strong. Even the checkout commented on what a great idea and how neat they were. Carrying the bags from the car up the garden path revealed another advantage –the material the bags are made of means that the handles don’t cut into your flesh – even when heavily laden – result! One of the best and most practical products I have used this year – real thumbs up. I just need an 8 pack one now for the weekly shop – 4 just aren’t enough.”
