alot of people like crushed panne better, but then alot of people like facile.

I prefer facile. The material feels better and stalls better for me, and the sand doesnt leak like it does from my crushed panne one. also, the crushed panne ones are regular lint magnets and they are grey with it in no time.

So my advice would be to go with the facile.

wait.

I have 2 of each kind. Both of my crushed panne ones i like better than both my facile. The ONE facile one i have played with, i have used a lot. Just for letting kids use at school. It has lost 3 times as much sand as the panne one that i use MORE than the facile.

I dont like ANY sandbags, but if i had to choose, i would go with the panne.

I have a facile and the guy I shred wtih uses the crushed panne and we switch up a lot. I like the facile because I think the fabric is a lot sturdier and when it fully breaks in it stalls about just as well. His also leaked quite a bit and became super floppy, like bad floppy. Mine hasn't leaked a grain of sand yet. I think the facile prepares you more for a 32 panel anyway just because it's facile, it's smaller and you can get familiar with breaking a bag in. That's my experience anyway.

Well, both bags are made the same way. The facile fabric is more dense and probably doesn't leak as much as the crushed panne. But the crushed bags are softer and more shredable right when you get them. I personally last stitch every crushed panne bag. The facile one's that Mestas makes are glued shut which doesn't feel as nice in the hand. I have shredded both kinds a lot. I go with the crushed panne. I even use them to compete.

so I would say that the facile has a little longer life and is good for hacking especially. It reminds me of a dirtbag.

The crushed panne I would recommend for indoor shredding. It keeps it clean and it lasts a lot longer. When all the "fuzz" has worn off the crushed panne bags are PERFECT.

Facile= 3 out of 5

Crushed Panne= 4.6 out of 5
