Subaru sells reusable shopping bags made of airbag scraps
Airbags are woven out of a special nylon that has to be flame resistant and impervious to gases. They're designed to last a long time as well, since they have to remain functional through many heating cycles in a car interior for years, possibly decades. If you've ever left a typical polypropylene shopping bag in your hot car for too long and had it disintegrate in your hands, scattering plastic dust everywhere, you know those so called eco-bags aren't really that eco friendly.
Due to their soft material, the airbag bags can fold down into a very compact square as and come with an elastic band to hold the folded square together. That's helpful for storage, as anyone with a trunkful of canvas shopping bags can attest to.blue or the pinkish-red of the STI performance brand. They're also designed to have an opening large enough hold a standard Japanese cypress tub and onsen towel, two items necessary when visiting one of country's many hot springs.
