Side by Side Comparison of: Richards Homewares vs Wowlife

I just love these shoe bags. This is my third time to buy them. I use them for my shower shoes/flip flops at the gym, tennis shoes that I keep in my backpack, work shoes in my gym bag, and I keep a couple in my suitcase for traveling. I'm buying another set now to keep in my camping gear for my spare shoes or it stuff gets wet/muddy, it won't mess up the rest of the stuff in my pack. And my shoe pairs fit perfectly in them (women's size 8). I LOVE these things!

Good deal, very durable, took a while to get shipped but It's totally worth it. These bags may also have other uses because they are very resistant.

I really love these!! I use them every time I travel. I will say they are quite small, especially for my women's size 6 (men's size 3) feet. It is hard to get 2 running shoes in at the same time. I got 3 in a pack for the same price as the 5 pack now. If worse comes to worse you can always use 1 bag for each shoe. They also work well for carrying other things - like dirty clothes after the weekend, small trinkets for vacation that might get lost otherwise,

I don't know why I didn't think of this before. I use this not only when I'm travelling, but also when camping. (I guess I'm travelling then too, huh?, never mind then.) Great for Portland, Oregon's rainy weather. Just bring extra pair of shoes to wear and put your muddy shoes in these bags so the rest of your clothes won't get muddy as well. The nylon fabric is a must because that is what makes it waterproof. Also, you can set up a whole outfit on a hanger, then put the shoes you want to wear with that particular outfit, then hang this as well on the hanger, and voila! you're set for tomorrow! I'm telling you, great for OCDs like me!

These shoe bags are perfect. $6-7 for a set of THREE, you can't beat it - Amazon Prime.They fit a mens size 12 shoe just perfectly... anything larger i'm not sure of...Simple draw string - they could add one of those plastic draw string spring clamps, but then again they work perfectly just the way they are.for the money and amazon prime free shipping - there's nothing that will come close !!!!

Each bag is fine for holding two dress or athletic shoes. One thing to mention is the bags aren't cloth. They are more like umbrella or vinyl raincoat material. Pretty thin but that's all you need for the suitcase.

Perfect fit for my husbands business shoes for when he travels. Great quality and great size.

These work great to put y wet water aerobics shoes in and I use them when I travel so my clothes don't get dirty from my shoes!

Handy item, helps organize/keep small items together. Quality seems good, so far. I will update this review if issues arise, but so far, so good.

Light duty bags, that are ideal for protecting your shoes and protecting your clothing from your shoes in a suit case.Ha, and I even used one bag to store my jumper cables in my car..

WYSIWYG. Doesn't seem durable, but it is cheap, and it works as long as you don't break it. I had issues with my shoes rubbing against my cloths and marking them while in a suitcase. This solves that problem.

PERFECT! Used for all my shoes size 6 women, 9 men, but for my son's 12 size shoe had to use 2 bags. Still great for travelling. You can also use for anything else you want. I used it also to take snacks on the plane. Convenient and easy to find in the carry on. Very versatile! Already put away for our next trip. Definitely very handy, and better than using supermarket plastic bags.

good product. just note you have to tie the string to keep it closes. Some drawstring bags tighten and stay tight but this one does not.

I needed these for when I travel to help keep them contained without using the original boxes, which can take up a lot of room. Because I am a shoe fanatic, I can't bring myself to put them in grocery bags. As soon as I got them I was able to put my size 11.5 high tops I happened to be wearing in them but it was a tight fit (as you can see in the pictures). The drawstrings seem pretty flimsy, but all in all they should be okay.

For some reason I thought the material of these bags would have been a waterproof nylon-like material (a more slippery/shiny fabric if that makes sense). However, they're more like a lightweight polypropylene (yes, I googled that word haha)...the same fabric that a lot of reusable grocery bags are made of. These bags do the job though. I wear a size 7-7.5 in women's shoes and these bags fit my shoes with room to spare. I've already used them on my mini vacays and they definitely help me stay organized and keep my shoes separate from my other belongings. Hope this review is helpful!

I use these nylon bags to carry my shoes (size 11) and they fit perfectly. However, the bag is not big enough for carrying boots or chukka boots. Material is water-resistant and has drawstring at top. I am a road warrior and travel for work so these bags have seen heavy use over past year. For less than $2/bag, it looks way classier than cheap grocery bags.However, taking away a star due to somewhat flimsy stitching. I use cedar shoe trees in my shoes when traveling and the added weight of shoe+shoetree finally ripped a few stitches in one of the bags. Though the fabric was easily re-stitchable.

I travel a ton and always bring heels and stack them in my suitcase. This was a perfect addition to my travel needs. I wear size 5.5 and managed to fit 2 pairs of platform heels in each bag, the only thing that would make this better is if it was transparent (asking a bit much I know) or if there was a clasp of some sort to close the bag, but since I squeezed 2 pairs of shoes that might have been part of the problem. You can still scrunch it down though and it will close pretty well. Def helps me stay organized better!

I think these bags will work for me. I just wish they were clear instead of brown to make them more security friendly. I don't think the product really needs a toggle because you can always knot the string, I guess that option is also less security friendly, but better than the shoes falling out. I can't really comment regarding size because I wear a size 6 and don't travel with really high heels, over 2-3". I am happy with this purchase overall.

Nice and large, as advertised.

Worked well for several months. After a while, the seam on the side of the bag began to rip slightly. For the price and material of this item, I can't really blame it.

not much to say they do what are advertised to do and are durable. Note this review is written a year after buying them.

Package arrived early. Works well if you're not looking for something really heavy.

Great bags for an inexpensive need...using these for garbage bags in my car and they work great!! What more could you ask for, washable garbage bags for cheap!

Great size for M10 or under.The size is ok for a M11.Slightly undersized if you are a M12, and don't plan on using it for shows any larger.The weight and feel are not necessarily tactically pleasing, but definitely enough to get the job done.For the price, probably a 4.4/5 but just not enough to round up to the 5.

Needs to be bigger and needs to be able to tie the bag.

This is a very cheaply made product. The seam stitches are large and the edges are starting to unravel because there was no protective stitching on the edges to contain the raveling fabric. The bags are starting to get holes as a result and the strings from the unraveling are annoying. Would not buy this product again.

These would have been awesome 100 years ago when foot binding was still legal, but in the 21st century they could surely find a few extra centimeters to makes the product more relevant.If you have a small foot - its a great product to have and travel with, if you have a size 10 like me its still good but just annoying as its a tight fit that makes it much more time consuming that it needs to be and is such an easy issue to address..

This size of the bag could be a little larger. Purchased this as a add-on sale. Didn't think about shoe size and bag size. Size 12 business dress shoes don't fit all the way. The bag could have been just a little bigger!

I went on a travel organization binge and bought these, the Ebags brand packing cubes, and the Eagle Creek pac-it-sacs. I was not impressed with these shoe bags. The quality is fine, for a mini drawstring bag, but it does previous little to help with packing, or to keep the shoes from scuffing one another (since you just throw the pair in the bag) and it's frustrating that you have to open the bag to see what shoes are contained within the bag. My previous method of reusing plastic grocery bags worked just as well, if not better, than this system.

This shoe bag would be good for shoes smaller than size 10 mens I think. I wear size 10.5 or 11 and I can't close the opening. The length measures more like 14.5 inches, but I think I would need about 17 inch length to close it well. The width is a bit of a squeeze for my shoes and requires extra work w/ both hands to get them in. I think this is best for ladies shoes and smaller mens shoes. To be fair, I've looked around and most shoe bags are about this big, and some even run smaller. I think price-wise it is not bad and it can be used to store other goods too. I'm using a carry sack (about $5.50 from local dept. store) for my golf shoes now, which is so much easier to put it in and take it out of. On Amazon, carry sacks costs a fair bit more.

Nothing amazing about these bags. I put my shoes in them and then lay them in my suitcase. They do the job. They are cheap. Nice to get so many. Nothing spectacular to look at.

Very cheap.. not as sold as i thought they would be (have no clue how "water proof" these could possibly be).

Good overall basic protection for "shoe bag." Rips easy though, seems on side of bag easily tore after putting size 8 shoes (which were there in already).

they rip easy

Crunchy! Thought it was brown. Looks black. OK. Serves the purpose.

Okay but a little tight for mens dress shoes.

Material is too stiff.

The good: these are light weight and generously sized.The bad: they are flimsy and not particularly well made.However, they do the work.

Bought two sets of these over a year and a half ago, kept one and gave one as a gift. Needed more so order another set, which took over a month to arrive from China. Bag material and string closure are not the same quality as the original sets I bought nor do they look like the photo and description of product. Not even sure if these will hold up after first use. Very disappointed I bought these!

Bag is too small for both shoes….not as expected...disappointing!

This is a review of the Travel Shoe Bag. Sadly, one of these has already broken on the drawstring lock, which appeared to be made of cheaper plastic. Thus, I am no longer able to secure the draw string closed, which allows the shoes to fall out of the bag. The bag material appears to be made well enough. It does not cost that much, yet still disappointed that it no longer stays closed. A 2.4 out of 5.0 stars.

Will do the job but made of extremely cheap paper-like material that will rip in a heartbeat. I ripped mine already. Don't expect a lot of use out of these. You get what you pay for I guess. It does the job of protecting my clothes in my suitcase from my shoes, but I don't expect to get more than one or two uses out of them.

Bags tear WAY too easily...they're okay, but ultimately cheap. cheap. cheap. I've seen dust covers with better quality.

Color very different than shown.

Ripped after 1st use. Very thin and paper like material.

Not good quality, one of the 2 bags already ripped after 1st use

I thought the material would be smoother and lighter weight. Rough fabric, heavy.

It is of a poorly made material and is NOT odour repellent. One of the few regretful purchase I had.

Not as description, cheap, not water-repellent nylon at all!!!!

Bag was flimsy and wasn't big enough to hold my size 11.5 wide (USA) dress shoes. When I tried to close the bag, it ripped easily when the mouth closed around the heels of my shoes. Good thing I only spent $1 on this bag!

DO NOT BUY!. Bags ripped the moment then went in. I didn't stuff them in, I just gently placed them in and the seams (on two) ripped. Don't waste your money. Surprised Amazon even allows this seller.

These are cheaply and poorly made. The older nylon bags were excellent and lasted a long time.These feel slightly better than paper. After very little use, they're all falling apart.Like I said: paper.

OK, I get it, these are not a lot of money, but they came directly from China...OK...and one of them tore immediately when I took them out of the bag. I don't even know if I got what I paid for here...which wasn't much. Will not buy again.

I wear size 12 shoes. I can't even put them in this bag. I can barely get it to cinch up around 1 shoe, because it's not long enough. It's too narrow to even get two shows in. If your shoes are smaller, the bag itself seems worth the money. But if your shoes are mens size 10 or bigger, don't bother with these.

These bags are not nylon! I do not think they are even waterproof. Had I seen in person would never have purchased. The material is like those cheap bags you purchase at store for groceries.

We have had these about 8 mos now and both have ripped - get the job done but rip easy.

Not nylon...Not woven fabric...junk

This was my second order of this product in 30 days. The first order came in exactly as described. My second order the bags were some kind of crap material. Definitely not high quality waterproof nylon. What a ripoff! Hook you on the first shipment. Send junk when you click reorder.

I ordered this product to help me in packing for a long trip. I was disappointed because it was poorly made. I guess you get what your pay for. Details below...Pros:-Large sized, would definitely fit my husband's big shoes.Cons:-Very poorly constructed. The draw string was coming apart in threads on most of the bags. The fabric of the bag was also coming apart by the upper seam. I had to return them. I'm quite disappointed that there seems to be no quality checking by the manufactures.

first one tore within 3 days
