I use it to store and dry the ropes I use for skiing, tubing, and kneeboarding. Keeps them manageable on the boat and I use the drawstring to hang them up with for storage and drying.The only upgrade they could make it a tab with grommet so I could hang it up by that instead.I bought these to hopefully store my frogg togg rain gear. I'm not able to fit both the top and bottom in the same bag but I can put them in separate bags. That will work!!!Nice selection of colorsIt's the perfect size for securing small medium sized items.Actual measured size of the ones delivered to me are 8 1/2 x 10 1/2. No big deal.These mesh bags are very well made with a cord lock that looks like it will hold up well.Good for laundry, vacuum accessory storage as the cord could be strung onto the vacuum..etc.Good buy!!Very well made.Should give years of service.Larger than I expected, but my fault for not measuring. I use for electronic cables and plugs. Also works in the washer and dryer for clothes that need careful care.Bought these bags to use for range balls. They have been fantastic. Each bag holds about 45 balls easily. The draw string seems strong.
