Which one is thicker?

Is there a material that is a bit thicker than ultrasuede light?

Pig suede. Jerab has used it before. Never tested this material myself.

Maybe the material that Lotus uses in his line of Elemental Footbags.

Ultrasuede Soft.

I think Microsuede may feel thicker, but I believe that they'll fall apart when used with a shot-type filler.

and plus microsuede is woven on the back and it stretches, but its really really soft and easily accessible. but i wouldn't recommend it for 32's, it makes great 4's though.

I'll one-up you by making 12 & 14 sand bags.

I just need to find some microsuede around my area.

Microsuede works for a bag with any number of panels, as long as it's filled with sand

I have use microsuede for 32s with lead shot, and it's the most stally thing ever, and as long as the shot is small enough you will be fine. My first couple microsuede bags I used BBs an it wrecked them in no time, but when i switched to #9 lead they were fine.

Joanne Fabrics has a huge selection of microsuede, and it's super cheap, like $2/yd
