What the heck! When did they stop including the loops on the sides? I have a hard time imagining my Sackville ShopSack without them. I use them to clip the bag to my Wald basket or I use the clips with a strap from a lap top bag so I can sling it over my shoulder, which is very handy when we're at the shore and I've got my hands full with other beach stuff. I suppose there's a good reason (i.e. cost cutting), but without the loops they go down a couple notches in desirability. To me, the loops were what differentiated it form other bags which happened to fit into the Wald basket.
