Stash & storage
Zip lock bags are resealable plastic pouches that keep your stash fresh and your pocket odour-free. At 90 microns thick, these aren't the flimsy sandwich bags you nick from the kitchen — they're proper storage bags with a firm seal that clicks shut and stays shut. Each pack contains 100 bags in your chosen size, from tiny 40x60mm coin bags up to the 120x180mm size that'll hold a decent monthly supply.
| Size | Best for |
|---|---|
| 40 x 60mm | Single gram or a few pills — pocket-friendly |
| 55 x 65mm | 1-2 grams of herb, small crystal stash |
| 60 x 80mm | 2-3 grams, or a couple of pre-rolled filter tips and papers |
| 80 x 60mm | Same volume as 60x80, wider orientation — good for flatter items |
| 70 x 100mm | 3-5 grams comfortably, small accessories |
| 120 x 180mm | Quarter-ounce and up, larger herb portions, edibles |
If you're only storing a gram or two at a time, the 55x65mm or 60x80mm are your go-to. Buying in bulk for friends or just like having a proper stash jar alternative? The 120x180mm gives you room to breathe — and room to squeeze the air out before sealing, which is the real trick for freshness.
We've watched people pull crumbled, dried-out herb from jacket pockets, tobacco pouches, and — memorably — a sock. The problem isn't just aesthetic. Once cannabis is exposed to air, light, and warmth, the terpenes evaporate and the trichomes degrade. What was once fragrant and sticky becomes dusty and harsh within days.
A 90-micron zip lock bag won't replace a proper glass jar with a Boveda pack for long-term curing, but for daily carry and short-term storage (up to a couple of weeks), it does the job well. The near-airtight seal traps odour inside — not perfectly, mind you, but enough that a casual sniff won't give you away on the tram. Combine it with a cool, dark drawer and your herb stays noticeably fresher than it would rattling around loose in a grinder compartment.
The honest limitation: plastic isn't ideal for months-long storage. Static can pull trichomes off the bud and stick them to the bag walls. For anything longer than two weeks, we'd pick a glass stash jar instead. But for portability, portion control, and keeping different strains separated? These bags are the simplest solution that actually works.

Complete your stash setup — pair these bags with a smell-proof stash box for double-layered odour control, or grab a Boveda humidity pack to slip inside the bag for week-long freshness. If you're portioning out different strains, a set of small labels keeps things organised without the guesswork.
We've stocked these since the early days of the shop, and they remain one of those quiet essentials that people grab at checkout without thinking twice. The 60x80mm outsells every other size by a wide margin — it fits a typical coffeeshop purchase (3.5g) with just enough room to seal properly. The 40x60mm is popular with people storing concentrates or small quantities of kief.
One thing we'd flag: don't store ground herb in these. Whole buds hold their freshness far longer than pre-ground material, regardless of the container. If you must store ground weed, use it within 48 hours. After that, it tastes like cardboard no matter what you keep it in.
At 90 microns, these feel noticeably sturdier than the cheap bags you find at pound shops (those tend to be 40-50 microns). You can feel the difference when you pinch the plastic between your fingers — there's actual resistance. The zip mechanism holds up to repeated use without splitting, which matters when you're opening and closing the same bag daily.
Near enough for casual situations, but not truly smell-proof. The seal blocks most odour, and the 90-micron thickness helps more than thinner bags. For complete odour elimination, double-bag or use a dedicated smell-proof container over the top.
Yes. The zip mechanism holds up well across multiple uses. Give them a wipe inside if switching strains — residual trichomes and terpenes from the previous contents will mix with your new stash otherwise.
The 40x60mm fits a single gram snugly. If you want a bit more room to seal comfortably without crushing the bud, go for the 55x65mm instead.
Stored in a cool, dark place with minimal air inside, you'll get 1-2 weeks of good freshness. Beyond that, terpene loss becomes noticeable. For longer storage, switch to glass with a humidity control pack.
Same total area, different orientation. The 60x80mm is portrait (taller than wide), while the 80x60mm is field (wider than tall). Choose based on what you're storing — wider items suit the 80x60mm, taller or cylindrical items suit the 60x80mm.
Over time, yes. Plastic generates minor static that attracts the fine resin glands. For short-term storage (under two weeks) the loss is negligible. For long-term storage, glass is the better call.
