The alternative is to reuse the cotton bag that you already have for other purposes.
Anecdotally, I use a backpack that I acquired in grade school 20 years ago. I use the same backpack as a day bag for many other types of trips. The zippers fell off track at one point and I had it repaired. It can also carry 20lbs or 40L of food (and on the shoulders instead of the hand) pretty easily.
But also, bags made from hemp instead of cotton. Especially if the leaves are used for other purposes and you're using the stalks.
