This is about a nylon sack to carry stuff in.

Lowe's hardware store has a new product that they are calling a cinch bag.

It looks like a practical thing to throw in your car for a road trip.

It is a rugged nylon sack with a small zipper compartment on the outside to
put your headlamp, and 2 open kangaroo pouches, one for a candy bar, and
the other for  small LED flashlight.  There is a small pouch outside with
Velcro lid to store a sandwich.  On the back is a zippered flat pouch for
maps, photos, flat things.

Inside is enough room for helmet and gloves, or instead something else like
knee pads, or a sweater.  Top does not close but has a drawstring, that
also serves as the shoulder straps.

Ideal use would be for a very short ridgewalking trip.

Brand is AWP, and is in the rack with the nylon tool bags.

It comes with webbing handles.

You could almost call it a purse for cavers.

It has a strap for car key-ring, or small carabiner.

It could be modified for more rugged uses, but already has a grommet drain
hole.

It cost $ 19.40 plus tax

See AWP HP Cinch Bag #0552604

This product meets the unofficial LSA ( Locklear Seal of Approval )

A Caver Purse, indeed. I bought a packet of 3 sizes of these work kit bags not 
long ago from Lowe's. Although not much of a neatness freak this may help 
organize my life as they look to be very handy. The zippers are industrial but 
muddy cave ready, not sure. However, as I said they look handy, for travel, 
anything..Preston
