Environmentally friendly, fashionable, timeless and summery, this is the classic basket bag. Whether for shopping, for that picnicin the park or for leisurely strolling along the Mediterranean, a high-quality basket bag is an ecological and charming companion for all occasions.

Just pick up a basket

Although the term basket bag may imply uniformity, there are many different materials and weaves. Also Bin bags Made of plastic are no longer a rarity and even if they are not a comparison to the classic straw basket, but they offer some advantages.
Plastic, for example, can be woven a little wider because the material is not bound to the width of the blades. Also, nothing needs to be colored here, as would be the case with straw. As a result, bright colors are possible. A basket bag made of plastic can also be easily cleaned with water and a little washing-up liquid and elastic PE tapes offer a tear-proof bag in basket look.
But comparable to a basket bag made of real straw (usually corn straw or palm leaves) is of course not comparable. Because real, hand-woven Bin bags always radiate the touch of summeriness, appear Mediterranean and are as light as natural.
If you ride a lot of bicycles, you should also pay attention to the size of the basket bag. Finally, the bag should also in the Bicycle basketfit.

Handles, Molds and Lining – Buyers have a choice

The form factor of Bin bags is divided into three categories: clear, box-shaped Bin bags are the simplest variant, some fashionable variants rejuvenate to the ground. This offers less storage space in the bag, but baguettes, cucumbers or celery stems so fall away when carrying forward and back, so squandering the lack of space inside. Also Bin bags with fixer form are available, this is more robust and densely woven, so that the bag also retains a certain rigid shape. So it is not quite as easy to stow as soft basket bags, but something more resistant.
Although dyeing basket bags made of real straw are no longer a rarity, light and dark shades of brown dominate as natural colors. Anyone who decides to buy a basket bag will, in most cases, proudly display the natural material anyway. More elaborate basket models are even provided at the corners with leather patches to prevent the natural wear.
The handles also adapt to these, because whether they are braided or made of leather, naturalness and load-bearing capacity are important. The handles should also be well riveted or woven. Tear them off, so they tear up the weave pattern usually the same.
Buyers should check with the basket bag necessarily whether they prefer to carry the bag in the hand or shoulders. Of course, there are also bags with two handle variants.
While the body of many wicker bags is woven exclusively from straw, some pockets offer an additional inner lining. This prevents sand or dirt from penetrating into the wicker material, but is a bit more expensive during basic cleaning. For a lining provides a (safe) space for the purse at the weekly market. Thus, the shopping basket can confidently replace the purse.
For very thin straw bags or bags of woven paper buyers should be careful in the care: these can often not be washed. Brushing against soiling only helps here; that is often incompatible with reality.

I like what fits in the end

Basket bags are available for many occasions. These can be a light and natural substitute for the handbag, the perfect fashionable addition to the straw hat on the beach or filled with fresh vegetables at the weekly market. With many fashionable cuts and in timeless variations basket bags are the easy alternative to fabric or leather.
