Abstract: This invention provides a bag adapted to vacuum seal an item and allow the user to see through the bag so that the item within the bag may be later identified. This is accomplished through providing a bag with two panels, a first panel and a second panel, that may be sealed along the outer edges except for at least one opening end. A portion of the interior surfaces of the two panels or the panels it self may be embossed to form air channels to remove the air within the bag. For example, the first panel may be embossed on one-half of the bag where the air channels may extend into the depth of the bag from the opening end. The second panel may be embossed on the other one-half of the bag where air channels may extend into the depth of the bag from the opening end. With this arrangement, both the first and second panels of the bag may have a portion that is embossed and the remaining portion that is transparent for identifying the content or item in the bag.
