Hey guys! I was just curious if anybody has any experience with using space bags to condense fur down. I'm moving across the country and I have just a tub full, and I really could use the space for other things.
Would keeping fur in a space bag for a week crinkle the fur horribly?
Thanks!
EDIT:
I went ahead and purchased two boxes of JUMBO spacebags. 12.99 for a jumbo and an xl. These are both jumbo bags since XL are going to be used for my clothes and doesn't matter to fursuit how that goes. DOGE FOR SCALE
First bag:

All the fur in the bag was in the blue tub + two other boxes of misc parts. There is a solid foam tail in that, a 3+ ft dragon tail with plush spikes, a few handpaws, and some extra fabric that I threw in because why not.
2nd bag:

Mostly foam this time around. an ENTIRE quadsuit foam body, Sully from Mother inc being suffocated on the bottom there, blocks of foam, a few foam heads and feetpaws from DHC (which are STURDY but they're huge!)
After Vacuum

Second bag:

It doesn't fit flat at the bottom of the tub, but I can stack the bags horizontally!
The downside is that I REALLY stuffed these, and the first one had a leak in the ziplock at the front while I was writing this, so I'm going to have to use duct tape to make sure they stay closed. :)
Wow this is my longest post aha. Hopefully this will be of use to somebody in the future. I just wanted to document my experience with space bags
