If you're looking for durable folders that hold a LOT of papers, these are an excellent choice. I've stuffed mine full of documents and carry multiples in my bag (along with spiral notebooks and other bulky/scratchy supplies and these folders not only keep the papers inside safe but are also still in "new" condition, despite the regular beating they've taken from travel and use over a 2yr span. Inside pockets easily hold letter sized paper, with business card space on the inner right pocket. The spine of the folder's almost accordion in design, which might be why they hold so many more papers without issue.
With papers in them, they open flat. Both sides stay firmly on the table. I'm not sure what it's called but inside the folders (towards the spine) there's a built-in insert with 3 metal brad-like tabs that can be lifted and put through the holes of lined paper, then flattened back down to keep them locked in place, between the folder pockets. Haven't used them yet but they seem decently made and would probably work with most flat things that fit in a 3 ring binder.
The "Contents List" on the front's incredibly useful, with enough spaces to likely be used several times, but can also be removed and replaced. That pocket's intended for cover letters and won't hold more than 2 sheets of paper (of average size & thickness) comfortably. It's very clear plastic, well attached. The different colors of the folders help with quick visual organization as well. The outside is indeed waterproof.
I truly appreciate the quality and design of these folders, enough to where I've ordered this set twice. They're worth the price and will last for a very long time. The mustache sticker & "thank you" note are a sweet little bonus too. Highly, highly recommend these folders, and Mr. Pen products in general.
