Time to start posting

I've been putting off this first post until I could dig up one of my oldest projects, but that seems to be putting everything I get into eternal limbo.  So today, I'll be making two posts -- the first project I backed (this post), and the most recent one I've received.



Huggy Bag

These are the elastic bags mentioned in my first post.  $30 got me three bags, two as gifts and one for my own use.  My own bag proved reasonably useful for smaller college grocery trips -- although that's not to say the bag had a small capacity.  While one of these couldn't handle a month+ worth of food (getting to the one store in Klamath Falls without a car was a hassle), the capacity was pretty much on par with the claims made by the project creator.  The bag stretches without any strain, and is strong enough to hold a pretty heavy load.  Sharp box corners and edges didn't feel like they were in danger of poking through, and for a $10 bag, this has proved pretty well worth it.

The Good:


  • Great value
    $10 isn't bad for an expandable bag
  • Great performance
    Holds as much as the image above shows, and more
  • Sturdy
    I've had it for years, and it's not broken yet
  • Compact
    Stuffs into a built-in pocket w/clip for easy carry

The Bad:

  • No more stock
    As of 2014, there isn't enough demand for a full production or retail run.
