Hi gang,
I can't add much more value to the discussions about the changing bags.
I use a bag for over 2 years now and I use it often ouside while
photographing in the field. Never had any fogging problems, even when I
have to use it in broad daylight or direct sunlight. So, there are
definitely suitable bags for IR! I just scrutinized my bag to see if
there are any names/brands on it. The only small label I could find
mentioned 'made in Japan'. The bag has two layers and two zippers. It
looks to be made of some sort of rubberized fabric. That's all I can
tell. 
Greetings,
Jaap Los
