I use these envelopes to mail calendars that I make. I like the recycled material but the paper is somewhat flimsy. I always reinforce the corners with tape so the calendars aren't dented in the mail. But overall I always buy these.
I am very big on products made in the USA. This envelopes are made in the USA and cheaper then those make in other counties. If fact I like them better.
I loved this product! It feels good to the touch but most of all is a recycled product! I will buy it again! Wonder if any of the other sizes of clasp envelopes will be offered in this mode?
Was considering the white ones that would cost three times as much. Ran into these and thought I could get more for the money and work more toward being sustainable.
These envelopes are not really meant for mailing but with light small flat items the envelope can be folded down over itself and then I tape the sides to reinforce and keep them down. This doubled thickness makes them adequate for mailing. Otherwise I think they are only good for very short-term storage of papers (the back seams open up frequently and they tear easily.) I would only recommend them if you are willing to take extra steps to use them.
