Why Reusable Waterproof Bags Are the Stylish, Sustainable Swap You’ll Love

Say goodbye to single-use plastic—forever.
At SOAKED, we believe that fashion should feel good and do good. That’s why we’ve launched our reusable waterproof shopper bags: the perfect blend of sustainability, style, and everyday practicality. Whether you’re heading to the supermarket, the gym, or a weekend away, these bags are designed to carry it all—while keeping our planet in mind.
The Plastic Problem (And Why It’s Urgent)
Each year, over 5 trillion plastic bags are used worldwide—most for just a few minutes. According to The United Nations Environment Programme, only 9% of plastic waste ever produced has been recycled, while the rest ends up in landfills or the environment. In the UK alone, the average person uses around 150 plastic bags per year.
Plastic bags take up to 1,000 years to decompose, and in the process, they pollute our oceans, harm marine life, and contribute to microplastic contamination in our food systems.
Choosing reusable alternatives is one of the simplest, most effective ways to reduce your environmental impact.
The SOAKED Solution: Reusable Waterproof Shopper Bags
Our reusable shopper bags are made from durable, rip-resistant water-resistant materials that stand up to everyday use. Each bag folds neatly into its own pouch, so you can toss it into your everyday bag or pocket, or even attach it to your keys with a handy key loop. And when the rain starts to pour? These bags won’t soak through—because, let’s face it, you’ve got enough to carry without also juggling soggy shopping.
