When I started using HSI a few years ago, I bought a cheap 'tundra' bag.
Other than it getting in you way when loading film holders, it worked
good with IR.  No light leaks at all.  Because of the 'getting in you
way' and raves on other lists for the Calumet bag, I bought one.  Works
great for normal film but leaks IR like a sieve.  Talked with Calumet
who pointed me to Photoflex who made the bag.  Talked with the bag's
designer and he said that he had heard about the problem but didn't know
any way to fix it.  So beware of Calumet/Photoflex bags for IR.

Hope this helps.
