The reusable bags in the UK certainly do fit in your pocket (when correctly folded up)

In a pocket on your bulky winter jacket? Sure.

In your jeans pocket? Not unless you want to look... well let's just say that bulging pockets on your butt, or on the front of your pant, are not a good look... not to mention not being particularly comfortable.

Can you please link me to something I can buy? I've never found something both small enough when folded to be pocketable and big enough when expanded to be useful.

Not recommending this specific one, just an example of the category: https://www.amazon.com/Reusable-Shopping-Eco-Friendly-Waterp...

Search term was "pocket shopping bag"

The normal bags from a UK supermarket fit just fine in my back pocket, smaller than the wallet I used to carry around
