A tote carries weight badly. The handles concentrate the load on a narrow strip of shoulder, and a full mahjong set with racks and a mat is a real weight: 3 to 5 kilos is normal.
A duffle distributes it and sits against the body. Over the walk from a car to a third floor flat, that is the difference between carrying a bag and enduring it.
The argument for a large bag is that a set travels as one object. Tiles in one bag, racks in another and the mat under an arm is how equipment gets left behind at whoever hosted.
One bag that holds everything is one thing to pick up at the end of the evening.
Washes, dries fast, does not hold damp against the contents. A canvas duffle looks better and takes two days to dry after a rainy walk, with the set inside it.
A duffle protects against loss and weather, not against impact. In a car boot, whatever is stacked on top presses on the tiles. If the set is valuable, a hard case inside the duffle is the arrangement that works.
Machine wash cold, inside out to protect the print. Air it out rather than storing it damp.

Nobody knows what's inside
Cowhide, suede, straw. Carry it to your friend’s place, then carry it to lunch.
Big enough to matter
Sizes that take a compact tile set, which handbags almost never do. Capacity is on the page, so it's a choice and not a gamble.
Take mahj with you
The reason your set leaves the house instead of living in a closet.
Enough for the case plus racks and a mat, which is more volume than most totes carry. This duffle is sold as large and is meant to take a full set with its accessories, but no interior measurement is published, so measure your case at its longest and thickest point and compare before ordering. Depth is the figure that catches people out, since a boxed set is a solid block rather than a flat one.
The tile count does it. A full set runs to 144 tiles plus flowers, jokers and blanks, all engraved and colour filled, and 3 to 5 kilos is normal once everything is boxed. That weight prices the case and the shipping as well. It also explains the shape of this bag: a duffle spreads 3 to 5 kilos across the body, where a tote concentrates the same load on one strip of shoulder.
If they host, they already have equipment; what they usually lack is one way to move all of it. A large printed duffle takes the set, the racks and the mat together, so nothing gets left behind at whoever hosted last. It weighs 0.45 kg empty, washes cold and dries fast, and the green dragon tile print makes it obvious whose bag it is in a hallway of coats.
It is a reading habit more than a written rule. Numbered tiles in a suit fall into the families 1 4 7, 2 5 8 and 3 6 9, so a partial run tells you which tiles complete it: holding 2 and 3 means you are waiting on 1 or 4. Players use it to judge quickly which discards are safe and which waits are still live. It applies across most variants, whichever set travels in the bag.
A mahjong set is handled more than almost anything else in the house: every tile passes through four pairs of hands, several times a game.
That is what we select for. Tiles that read clearly from the far side of the table, edges that stay clean, and a case that still closes after a few seasons of being carried around.
Sets differ in ways that only show at the table: the weight of a tile in the hand, how a crak reads from three seats away, whether the case survives the trip to a friend’s house.
When we have the figures, we publish them: tile count, tile size, weight and material. When we do not have one, we leave it out rather than guess.
