I have used the blue/red stripey bags but customs really didn't like them, told me to get proper luggage!! I now use the Bali material bags, line the bags with plastic garbage bags in case of rain or damage to bags. Superglue the side/end zip pockets so nothing can be slipped in, they are no good for anything anyway, reinforce the handles if need be by a tailor or just tie them together so that they are used together, strap some heavy duty tape around the middle. They weigh nothing at all. We use a large one each and have a smaller one for hand luggage, great for taking donations over and bringing gear back.
