Bag Features

Inspired by expedition duffel bags this small storage bag originated as an exercise in sewing the U-shaped zipper. The elliptical shape and expansive top lid means clear visibility and access to the contents. With optional overlay panels for durability, U-Zip Bags are optimal for garage tools, climbing hardware, or any other heavy duty use.
