Check out all these great features of this unique bag:

  • It hugs your waist/hips and ergonomically shapes your body. The bag is specially designed wider on the top and narrow on the bottom, providing easy access to the items inside.
  • It has two zippered pockets, one on the front side and one on the back.
  • The front zippered pocket creates a slot behind it, which makes additional pocket with open sides for the folding paper holding board.
  • The back zippered pocket is wide enough for the phone and will keep your personal items safely.
  • The double slider zipper in front of the bag provides easier access from the middle or from any other side.
  • When in use, you can open the top zippered panel and tuck it in to get easier access to all your items. When finished, zip it all the way.
  • Mixed pockets insert has a strip of a Velcro on the bottom, which allows you to detach it when needed for reloading or just easier access to the items in it.
  • The insert pocket contains four tall narrow pockets with a pleat on the bottom for more space, one wide mesh pocket, snapped loop for a tape roll, D-ring to keep your keys, a strip of webbing with multiple loops for pens, markers, highlighters, tools, etc., and wide large pocket in the middle.
  • All these pockets make enough room to hold couple pair of gloves, tons of sterile gauze pads of different size, bandages, hand sanitizer, towelettes and more.
  • The clear vinyl pocket inside will organize your notecards, reminders, business cards and other small papers.
  • The bag itself is not flat; it’s wider on the top, so there is still some more room in between the insert and the panels of the bag, so you can stuff it with even more items!
