A bullet-resistive or projectile-resistive insert assembly includes at least one anti-ballistic material sheet formed peripherally for receipt in a sheet-covering envelope. An exterior sheet-covering envelope assembly envelops or covers the anti-ballistic material sheet or sheets and includes anterior and posterior envelope material layers. The anterior and posterior envelope material layers are respectively received in anterior and posterior relation relative to the anti-ballistic material thereby sandwiching the same intermediate the enveloping material layers. The anti-ballistic material comprises an outer peripheral stack contour formed to match and mate with an inner peripheral envelope contour of the exterior sheet-covering envelope assembly. The anti-ballistic material includes an anterior stack section, a central stack section, and a posterior stack section. The central stack section has a central stack top-to-bottom length relatively greater in magnitude than an anterior stack top-to-bottom length and a posterior stack top-to-bottom length respectively associated with the anterior and posterior stack sections.

A holder (32) that is configured to hold a container (34). The holder is secured to a carrying article, such as a backpack (10). In some embodiments, a backpack includes a main compartment (28) including a side wall (26) and a first zippered opening (26) in the side wall. The holder is attached to the side wall, and the holder is movable between a first position and a second position. In the first position the holder is within the main compartment, and in the second position the holder extends through the first zippered opening (84) and is accessible outside of the main compartment.

The present specification relates generally to shoulder bags and more specifically to a bag strap support device and method for reducing the likelihood of a bag strap slipping off a user's shoulder. The bag strap support device includes a lower magnet, an upper magnet, and a stopper piece, extending from a top face of the upper magnet. The method of reducing the likelihood of a bag strap falling off a user's shoulder includes steps of placing a lower magnet on the user's shoulder under a clothing item worn by the user, placing an upper magnet with a stopper piece extending therefrom directly above the lower magnet such that the upper and lower magnets sandwich the clothing item, and positioning the bag's shoulder strap on the user's shoulder between the user's neck and the stopper piece.

A pouch for carrying hemostatic gauze packages securely fastens to the equipment on a utility belt such as a tourniquet holder and is easily accessible in an emergency situation. The pouch can hold up to two packages of compressed advanced clotting gauze that are removed from the pouch by a deployment ribbon.

An auxiliary weight supporting device includes a back rack, a walking-stick and a connecting rod. The back rack is configured for the user to wear and for carrying an object. The walking-stick includes a main body and a gripping part and a contacting end configured at two ends of the main body respectively. The gripping part is configured for the user to hold, and the contacting end is configured to touch the ground when the user is walking. The connecting rod has a first end connected to the main body and a second end coupled to the back rack. The walking-stick is controlled by the user to support the ground and swings back and forth in accordance with the user’s steps. The connecting rod drives the back rack to rise when the walking-stick swings backwards.

Embodiments of a strap assembly system for a golf bag are described herein. The strap assembly system can be converted between a single-strap configuration or a double-strap configuration. The strap assembly system comprises a first strap, a second strap, and a back puck. The back puck comprises first and second attachment openings for securing the first strap. The back puck further comprises first and second side openings that define a linear pathway and are configured to receive the second strap. The second strap can move freely along the linear pathway.
