Shoppers rush to buy £15 viral Uniqlo bag that fits everything from jam tarts to books

Shoppers have been rushing to Uniqlo to buy a deceptively spacious ‘Mary Poppins’ bag that fits in SO much stuff. The £14.90 accessory has gone viral on TikTok - and there are so many colours to choose from.

The Uniqlo mini round shoulder bag has featured in dozens of TikTok videos, racking up millions of views in a matter of weeks thanks to its Tardis-like abilities to hold all of your essentials and more.

The bag measures only 28cm by 17cm, with a 10cm depth, but fashion fans have been showing off what fits inside by pulling out paperback books, epipens and packets of jam tarts, like a magician pulling a rabbit from a hat.

One Tiktokker, Jess Elle King said: “You know everyone talks about these Uniqlo bags and how much fits in them? I truly think I’ve outdone myself tonight, so I’m going to show you exactly what I managed to squeeze in here.”

Following a trip to Sainsbury’s to stock up on snacks, Jess began to pull out the entire contents of her bag - and the products just kept coming.

Inside her Uniqlo bag was a mini deodorant, big bag of Hula Hoops, a whole packet of sic jam tarts, a packet of mini rolls, a can of Starbucks double shot espresso, her card holder, medication, Airpods, Vaseline, keys, earplugs, Polo mints and not one, but two lipglosses.

Another video from user @Jennifer.grst saw over 1.1million views, with the creator stuffing the bag with a passport, keys, purse, sunglasses, Airpods, a hairclip and a full bottle of water.

And it doesn’t end there, Myn’s Life revealed the contents of her Uniqlo bag on the video sharing app, placing in her purse, a film camera, a hair tie, hand sanitiser, a lip gloss, keys, sunglasses, portable charger, Airpods and phone, adding that you can fit in ‘so much more’, describing it as the ‘perfect every day and travel bag’.

Meanwhile, TikTokker Imogen, said: “I’m just about to leave and I have my Uniqlo bag and I have been putting stuff in my bag for the last hour whenever I thought I might need it tonight.”

Inside the bag was a roll on deodorant, two debit cards, a wallet, FIVE lipsticks, two lip pencils, a mini nail polish, lip balm and, the star of the show, a paperback book!

The bag really does seem to fit ‘everything’ inside, with allergy sufferer Caitlin stowing away an Epipen among her Vaseline, a packet of biscuits, her wallet, keys, phone charger, a hair clip, camera, perfume and a full size pair of headphones.

Uniqlo describe the £15 cross-body accessory as ‘A perfect fit for active wear,’ with ‘convenient inner pockets with plenty of storage.’

The fabric is sprayed with a water-repellent agent, and is a ‘convenient size that fits your smartphone and wallet’ - to say the least!

The bag comes with an adjustable strap so that you can wear it over the shoulder or across the body, coming in a selection of colours like pink, cream, blue and black. You can shop the viral Uniqlo bag here, and opt for a free collection from Manchester’s Market Street store.
