good vacuum bags - cube shaped storage?

Does anyone have recommendation for vacuum bags that really work for shrinking the volume, and are also quite sturdy?

In particular, I want some that are sort of cube shaped - ie., shrink down to a cube shape, so that I can put it in storage boxes (i.e., around 30cmx30cm after it's been vacuumed - it can be taller as my boxes aren't actually cubes). It's a bit hard to tell from measurements online what size they might shrink down to when full, or how sturdy they are.

I want to store lots of old clothes, coats, pillows and linens and things, and the cupboard isn't that big, and i have very little other space!

I only have a handheld vacuum but it has a hose on the end so I'm assuming that it would work for this!

Lakeland do some decent ones that shrink down into an outer cube-shaped bag that you zip closed to stop them re-inflating. They're not cheap, but they're the only ones I've found that don't just let all the air back in. You can get them on Amazon as well as the Lakeland site

thank you, that sounds good. I hadn't thought about them reinflating! I guess I was thinking how pillows etc from amazon come vacuum packed but of course those are permanently sealed.
