A harness system for a clip. The clip has a base portion and a pair of elongated members, the elongated members folded over the base portion, thereby defining a gap configured to receive portions of a harness. The elongated members are separated from one another by a longitudinal opening for accommodating a rib between the portions of the harness. A gate is securably engaged to a first one of the elongated members and rotatable between an open position in which the gate does not obstruct said longitudinal opening and a closed position in which said gate obstructs said longitudinal opening. The harness is fashioned from a strip of webbing secured to a base along its midline and edges. The webbing thereby forms two pockets, each sized to accommodate one of the elongated members of the clip.

Pack assemblies for dog walking are disclosed herein. Such assebmlies can include, for example, an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion can include a first strap and a second strap. The lower portion can include a leash assembly having a slider and a leash clip configured to be detachably coupled to a dog leash. In some embodiments, the leash clip can slide along the slider.

A dry and wet land gear holder for supporting equipment for a hunter or wildlife observation enthusiasts. The holder includes an upper and lower support members that are telescopically extensible and retractable relative one another. The lower support member has a plurality of outwardly extending legs supporting the holder in a vertical orientation. A plurality of pegs for supporting the user's gear. The holder may be configured with an accessory that is received within a top end of the holder. The accessory may include a camera mount, a sighting rest, and a horizontal support platform, which may be configured as a work surface or a seat. The legs and bottom end of the lower support member may have ground penetrating tips to secure the holder in an upright position relative a ground surface.

A quick-release attachment mechanism includes a fastener that attaches an object to a user. The fastener is disengaged by pulling on a pull-handle.

A pack having a body defining a volume for the containment of items. The body has a height, width, and depth, and, optionally, at least one body strap coupled to the pack body. An elevator system is associated with a compartment of the pack. The elevator system includes: (i) a cradle that is movable upwardly and downwardly in the compartment and which is configured with a support portion to receive an item storable in the compartment; and (ii) a coupling system that couples the cradle to a user grasp element disposed on the pack. The pulling of the grasp element lifts the cradle from a lower position in the compartment to a raised position. The raising of the cradle is sufficient to allow a stored item that is enclosable in the compartment to protrude from the compartment.

A wearable power source system is provided. The wearable power source system embodies a wearable power assembly having a wearable adapted to retain a power source, and a tool adapted to be powered by the retained power source. An electrical connection may connect the tool to the power source. A user may don the wearable power assembly, whereby a tool's power source is worn by its user, making handling the tool less of a burden. Clothing relative to the wearable power source system will be designed and become part of the user. Slacks, jackets, vest, apron, wristband, belt, hat jewelry, belly/fanny pack, and other such clothing/personal embodiment items will be designed to become part of the person and the wearable power source system.

A backpack having a modifiable display. The backpack may include an active element arranged on an outer surface of the backpack, a power supply arranged on the backpack, and a controller arranged on the backpack and in electrical communication with the power supply and the active element. In some embodiments, the active element may include one or more drivers. The one or more drivers may be coated in a sealant, such as a rubber sealant. The active element may be a flexible display configured to display, such as an LED, LCD, OLED, AM-OLED, or EPD display. In some embodiments, the backpack may be part of a self-expression kit, and the modifiable display may be removable and configured for coupling to other surfaces. In some embodiments, the backpack may be part of an advertising network having a plurality of wearable articles and a digital marketplace for advertising opportunities.

A shoulder strap clip for a shoulder bag having a first strap and a second strap. The shoulder strap clip includes a shoulder padding configured to rest on a shoulder of a user; a spring-loaded clip rigidly attached to the shoulder padding at one end and configured to extend over a top surface of the shoulder padding. The spring-loaded clip includes a first contoured slot configured to receive the first strap of the shoulder bag; and a second contoured slot configured to receive the second strap of the shoulder bag.

A tea bag holder and method of its use is provided, for storage and transport of a tea bag. The holder can be temporarily attached to a beverage container. The holder can hold a tea bag before use or enclose a used tea bag for later reuse or disposal. The holder may incorporate a permeable surface for draining moisture to a separate area of the holder or to the beverage container, which preserves the tea bag for reuse.

In one instance, an attachment device for use in attaching a hook-and-loop patch to Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment (MOLLE) includes a backing member having a central stem and a first cap and a second cap portion. The front side of the device has a hook or loop material applied to it. The first cap has a first wing and second wing. The second cap has a third wing and fourth wing. The backing material is flexible enough to allow the first cap or second cap to be compressed to go through a loop on a MOLLE and then released causing it to return to its original position. In this way, it is attached to a loop on the MOLLE and may then receive a coordinated hook or loop material on the back of a patch. Other embodiments are presented.
