An organizer's dream. The HLT (Handy Little Thing) is a clamshell pouch with four zippered pockets, plenty of interior elastic and webbing loops (to retain cords and tools), and some clever ways to carry it. You can clip it to your Synik or other bag, to the seat pocket on the airplane, or hook your hand and thumb through it and use it as a write-in notebook holder or work-out-of tool pouch. It can be worn as an impromptu waist pack, sling bag, or cross-body bag, and it’s available in two sizes: Size 1 ( Synik 22 ) and Size 2 ( Synik 30 ).

Some of our bags — such as the Cadet , Synik, Pilot , and Co-Pilot — have built-in rolling luggage handle pass-through slots. But what do you do if your bag doesn’t have a pass-through, or you have rolling luggage with a very thick, wide handle that can’t fit through the bag’s built-in pass-through? There’s two solutions we can offer: Option #1 Use the Webbing Waist Belt On the Bag You Have This is admittedly a bit of a hack, but if you have one of our bags, you might already have what you need for it and, in that case, it’s free! 1.

We offer several comfortable shoulder straps to choose from. The Absolute Shoulder Strap has a unique, patented, internal control-stretch system that's a lifesaver when carrying a heavy bag. It's the ideal strap for those who carry hefty loads or simply want the most comfortable strap available. The Absolute Shoulder Strap combines a nonslip, ergonomically curved pad — made of soft, durable neoprene — with comfortable stretch backing to make bags feel 50% lighter and 100% more comfortable. It's adjustable from 20" to 52".

Double Organizer Pouches add two extra pockets of organization to any bag. Front pocket is clear, and the back pocket is concealed. Using a small-but-tough plastic snaphook, Double Organizer Pouches attach to any of the O-rings inside our messenger bags, backpacks, briefcases, travel bags, laptop bags, and knitting bags. If you have another bag, that's ok — just don't use the little plastic snaphook on the pouch or break it off. Double Organizer Pouches zip with a #5 YKK coil zipper with a plastic slider, which is less likely to damage sensitive electronic gizmos.

A good and strong duffel designed to pack your dog's stuff: extra leash, food, water bowl, Camp Mat and more. We started with our favorite classic duffel design, added some smart features, removed some stupid ones, and then put it all together with the best materials and stitching you can get. This is the duffel to take on road trips (for your stuff and your dog's stuff) or throw in the back of the truck filled with WCS (Worst Case Scenario) gear. And, sure, you can fly with it or take it to the gym. Webbing loops on the bottom and side for looping through our Lash Straps .

Back in the mid 1970’s, I made a firewood carrier for my father and a couple extras for friends. The design was nothing new or revolutionary, but it did its job: schlepping 3-5 firewood logs from the woodshed to the hearth. When my father passed away in 2016, I inherited the original carrier I had made all those years before. Now, over 40 years later, I use the thing almost daily in the winter months.

See our other mask designs: V5 Mask / Mask Head Strap Description Our multi-layer non-medical V6 Mask is designed to have as many interior filtration layers as practicable , while remaining cool, breathable, comfortable, and convenient to wear. In spite of its multiple layers, most folks who’ve tested this mask find it to be our most breathable, comfortable mask design yet. Why did we choose sewn-in filter layers instead of a user-inserted filter? Because the interior filter layers can be machine washed and machine dried, there’s no need for a separate, removable filter.

Think of our Cubelet as a relative of the 3D Organizer Cube . . . a close relative, as in adorable younger sibling . Clearly useful as an interior organizer (it nicely contains a laptop power brick), we’re also pretty certain some folks will also use it as an ultra-simple, über-tiny over-the-shoulder bag. Inside, it's as simple as it gets: no pockets or O-rings. Two exterior O-rings allow you to tether it inside your larger bag or pack, using one of our various colors and sizes of Key Straps .

Our spies have informed us that some of you(we shan’t name names here) were shamelessly using our Truck tote as a yoga and gym bag. Such unauthorized use is highly frowned upon. However, we decided that rather than reporting you to the Bag Police, we’d cover for you and design a tote bag even better suited to the task. Hence, we offer you Truckasana.
