Matthews Sandbags come in a variety of shapes and weights. They are used for securing the bases of light stands and set walls. Many have handles, for hanging on hooks or risers. Some have two wings, to allow draping over light stand legs.
Most are cordura nylon, some are vinyl covered and waterproof.
Some models of sandbags are shipped empty, for convenience and economy. They can be filled with sand, or any type of weight you provide, and emptied for storage, or transport.

If you're reading this you probably already know Matthews makes great, pro-level gear. I've been seeing and using the standard-issue orange Matthews sandbags forever, but in the rain those are not so great... this is the solution. The wipe off and look great.

Would there be a reason I wouldn't want water repellent sand bags? The nonwater repellent sand bags are only $2 cheaper... wish I could get the water repellent ones in black but other than that is there any other reasoning?
If you will always be working away from water, such as in a studio environment, then the non-water repellent sand bags would be fine. However, it doesn't hurt that extra sense of security in case the bags happen to get wet,

What would you sugg3est to hild each bag for outside travel. Canvas bag?
You can use the Impact Milk Crate (Full-Size) or the Impact CC-210 Cable Crate with Lid (Black, 40L) or possibly the Impact LKB-4C Light Kit Bag (Black) for moving to a location, or if you mean to hang it from a stand, you can use a canvas bag, or the existing straps can hang from a J-hook on a mafer clamp or super clamp.
