What doe these weigh per bag once filled with sand?

I filled each side with 9 pounds of sand for a total of 18 pounds per bag. I sincerely doubt you will get much more sand in there than that. I also chose to use a Hefty 1 gallon freezer bag on each side for a "liner" to hold the sand, which will hopefully reduce the likelihood of the sand leaking out and also keep it dry when used outside during inclimate weather.

What kind of polyester material is this? Cordura? 1680D, 600D, etc

Don’t know they are very heavy duty made well used them a lot never lose sand

Can these be used for exercising ?

I bought them for that express purpose: Exercise. Right now i have a 5-lb neoprene-coated barbell in each pocket. Each bag has two pockets, like a saddlebag. Each pocket is double-zippered, and seems sturdy enough for anything without sharp edges. I wouldn’t swing wildly, and will let you know if anything goes haywire! Definitely you could load each double-zippered pocket with gravel, up to 10-12 lbs total. I like the idea that I can pack these empty for travel and just load some “whatever” in them for workouts on the road. Why not some full soup cans? Just don’t windmill them or you might end up with a lawsuit! I might even try to locate some heavy-duty sealable bags to insert in each pocket, to fill with water. I’ll let you know if there’s a deluge.

Are these bags graded for outdoor use?

I've used them outdoors before but never in a muddy place. There canvas is pretty good but the zippers aren't great. I had 1 (and almost 2) zippers pull off the teeth so Inwas down one before I started.
