I got these to use in place of Christmas stockings for the teens and adults at or family holiday gathering. They were a hit. The bags are slightly larger than I expected, but that's not bad. The quality is incredible for this kind of bag. The prints are clear and attractive.They do not close at the top (I didn't expect them to). They are great for shopping or anytime you need to throw something in a bag. They would easily hold a change of clothes or a usual shopping bag of groceries or various items.The quality is such that they are a little bulkier than expected, especially if you use similar bags. They are just a little bigger that a business envelope folded in half and just over about 1/4 inch thick.I highly recommend these bags! There is something for nearly everyone in the prints and I'm not worried about them falling apart with multiple uses or carrying typical grocery loads.
