    What does it look and feel like?
    Like a supermarket carrier, this is a vest carrier bag which refers to the vest shaped appearance of the bag. It's manufactured from a high density polythene which means it's scrunchy and thin to touch, just like a supermarket carrier. And just like a supermarket carrier, these bags are primarily designed for function over form. It's rare that you would find this type of bag in high end boutiques but you'll be sure to find them in the vast majority of high street stores. This is a particularly large type of vest carrier bag that is best suited to retailers selling particularly large goods, see common uses below.
    What's it used for?
    This is a very large, strong vest carrier, perfect for big and bulky goods, either boxed or unboxed. Typically used for toys, footwear (in particular wellingtons and riding boots), bulky bedding and cushions, larger items of clothing (winter jackets for example), wedding hats and dried flowers.
    What do the dimensions mean?
    405mm x 635mm x 735mm (16in x 25in x 29in) means:
    • the bag width is 405mm (16in) but expands outwards to 635mm (25in) when the gusset is fully opened
    • the bag length is 735mm (29in)
    Still confused? Take a look at the diagram below:
    • A = 405mm (16in)
    • B = 635mm (25in)
    • C = 735mm (29in)
