COOL AND THE BAG is a French brand created in 2010. At the time, very few tote bags were distributed in France. However, in a nearby country, in Berlin, young people were using these cotton bags distributed in supermarkets to customize them and avoid using plastic bags. The idea was launched.
Cool and the bag offers cotton bags printed in France. We work in collaboration with artists, illustrators, graphic designers. We also propose our own creations in connection with the current events and our favorites.
Since the opening we are listening to our customers. We have improved the quality of our cotton (180gr/m2), which makes our tote bags the strongest bags on the market. They weigh 100g for the classic ones (while on the market you can find tote bags weighing 72g most of the time). Thanks to this, you can keep them for a very long time and they will stay like new even with time.
The weaving is done by a family business located in the Jura, in France with a 100 years old know-how. The manufacturing process is part of a sustainable development approach from the selection of the cotton to the weaving. The raw material is produced in the respect of the human being and its environment, the spinning and the weaving use a green energy: the hydroelectricity. The tote bags benefit from the Öeko-Tex guarantee (a very strict label concerning the quality of the raw materials up to the finished product).
The printing is done in Paris by a real printer, on a professional digital printer with high quality inks to keep the brightness of the colors on the long term, as on the first day.
