Materials

Leg bags are available in different materials. The choice of material may have an effect on how comfortable or discreet the bag is.

Helpful tips

Bags are commonly available in transparent PVC (polyvinyl chloride)
If you want a bag that doesn't rustle, look for ones made from polyethylene or PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) as they tend to make less noise when worn.
Bags with a fabric backing - may be more comfortable, reduce sweating and are less prone to rustling noise.
Rubber (latex) bags are also available but these are reusable bags only suitable for use as extra storage capacity for male and female urinals or body-worn urinals.
