Cut, folded and sewn by hand

The same tote you carry groceries in: heavy, water resistant, and printed with artwork that Trader Joe's retires every season.

How each one is made

A tote gives up a handful of wallets. The best printed panels become the front; the rest becomes the lining.

Customer experiences

1 of 1No two wallets are alike.

Every wallet is cut from a different part of the tote, so the print on yours lands differently than anyone else's. Take it up the mountain, down the trail, or across the country. It's the only one like it.

Frequently asked

Is it actually made from a Trader Joe's bag?

Yes. Every wallet starts as a new Trader Joe's reusable tote. We cut, fold and sew it by hand into a slim wallet. Bagiste isn't affiliated with Trader Joe's. We just love the artwork.

Will mine look exactly like the photo?

Close, but not identical. Each wallet is cut from a different spot on the bag, so the artwork sits a little differently. That's the point. Yours is the only one like it.

How much does it hold?

Comfortably six cards, folded bills, a key, and a few coins. It's meant for the days you don't want to carry a full wallet.

Can I wash it?

Wipe it down with a damp cloth. The tote fabric is water resistant and dries fast. Skip the washing machine, since it can crease the print.

How fast does it ship?

Orders go out within two business days by USPS, free. Most U.S. orders arrive in 3 to 5 days.

Can I return it?

Yes, within 30 days if it's unused. Email us and we'll send instructions.
