A waterproof canvas bag built specifically to carry tiles, with the capacity a full set needs and almost no weight of its own.

Most bags sold as mahjong bags are handbags with a mahjong name attached. This one is the other kind: a bag whose dimensions were decided by what a tile set actually is.
That difference shows in one number, the depth. A tile set is a thick object, and a bag designed around a phone and a wallet cannot take it regardless of how wide it is.
Tiles themselves shrug off water. What does not is a wooden box, a leather rack, a cardboard tray or a paper score pad, all of which travel in the same bag.
A waterproof outer means a walk from a car in the rain does not end with a set drying on a radiator, which is how wooden components warp.
300 grams empty. A leather bag of the same capacity starts at a kilo, and when the contents are already 2 or 3 kilos of tiles, the bag's own weight is a third of the problem.
Large enough for tiles, racks and the small pieces together. Keeping the whole set in one bag is the single habit that stops sets becoming incomplete, so capacity here is not about convenience but about the set surviving.
Wipe clean, air it out after a wet trip rather than storing it damp. Do not machine wash, which strips the waterproof treatment.

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.
Large enough to take tiles, racks and the loose pieces together, because splitting them across 2 bags is how dice and wind markers get lost. This one is built for that load rather than adapted from a handbag pattern, which is the distinction that matters. If you are measuring, work from the racks: they are the longest thing in the set and they set the minimum.
It names the tiles that complete a partial run. A two and a three are finished by a one or a four; a five and a six by a four or a seven. Those completing tiles land on one, four and seven as you move up the suit, hence the name. It is the fastest way for a new player to see what a hand is actually waiting for without laying it all out.
A bag built for tiles rather than a bag with tiles printed on it. The difference shows on the first wet walk from the car: coated canvas keeps the damp out, where a printed cotton tote passes it straight through to the set. It is also the thing a player will not have bought for themselves, since most people carry their tiles in whatever the set arrived in.
Waterproofing accounts for most of it on a bag like this. Coated canvas costs several times the uncoated version, and it has to be cut and stitched in a way that does not undo the coating at every seam. Add an audience of players rather than of shoppers and there is no volume to spread that across. The alternative is a bag that reaches the tiles the first time it rains.
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.
