Going to India provided us with the opportunity to chose the right organic cotton for the product. When we first produced the bag they were 150 gram but with quite a loose weave. So the strength in the bags came from the design and a heavier thread. What we have now done is reduce the weight of the thread by using finer cotton, but at the same time increase the weave to something a lot tighter. The result is a thinner, lighter and softer bag, that retains all the design features and importantly is at least as strong as the original bag. It has also enabled us to keep the capacity of the bags the same but we can fold them into an even smaller pocket which means they are even more convenient.
