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.

Matthews Water Repellant Sandbag Reviews
Great Sand Bags
These are worth the extra money if you find yourself working in rain or drizzle. These are tough bags.
High Quality
Built to last and do not leak! Always quality gear from Matthews!
Tops
These bags are tops. Fabric bags slip on slippery floors while these stay put. Their traffic safety color is scoffed upon by some, but I think they make it less likely that someone will trip over them. I put one under my knees when I have to get down for a low angle shot. I've owned 4 of them for over 10 years and they have never leaked a grain. Just wash them off with soap and water every couple years and they keep on working great.
Every ENG crew needs four.
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.
