A folding container assembly has a soft-sided wall structure that is collapsible from either a fully expanded condition or from a partially expanded condition, wherein the container assembly defines an interior chamber for storing articles, into a carry pouch format wherein the container assembly is folded down on itself such that the interior chamber of the container assembly is not accessible for use. Accordingly, the folding container assembly has a first configuration wherein the container assembly defines a first interior cavity having a first interior volume for storing articles, a second configuration wherein the container assembly defines a second interior cavity having a second interior volume, wherein the second interior volume is less than the first interior volume, and a third configuration wherein the container assembly is folded down on itself into a compact form such that the interior cavity or chamber is not accessible for use.

A carrying case for storing folding chairs, tents, and outdoor equipment. The carrying case includes a sidewall between a first end having an opening and a closed second end forming an interior volume. A collar is positioned at the first end and includes a channel that is coaxially aligned with the opening of the first end such that the equipment enters the interior volume through the channel of the collar and the opening. The collar further comprises a distal end having a first diameter that tapers to a smaller second diameter at a proximal end. In a foot recess embodiment, a foot recess forms a compartment on the sidewall that is adapted to receive a foot or toe of a user. In a foot flange embodiment, the carrying case includes a flange that extends about the second end that is adapted to receive a foot or toe of a user.

Products, processes, and kits are provided for compressing, containing, and carrying goods, particularly soft goods. Cinchable carrying bags are reconfigurable between and open, substantially flat configuration and the present disclosure relates to cinchable carrying bags, cases, or luggage. In particular, present disclosure relates to portable, soft-sided or textile bags configured for reducing the volume or footprint of a load of goods, such as soft goods, contained therein. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to reconfigurable bag templates configured for receiving a load of goods while in an open or substantially flat configuration, wrapping around the load of goods into a folded configuration, reducing the volume or footprint of the goods in a cinched configuration, and securing or containing the cinched goods in a closed configuration.

Systems and methods are involved with but are not limited to a first side and a second side and a first wall extending between the first side and the second side, the first wall including a first semirigid board with a first bowed configuration and a first flat configuration. In addition to the foregoing, other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text forming a part of the present disclosure.

A collapsible leakproof container comprises an orifice ring defining a mouth of the container, a lid that detachably seals with the orifice ring, a flexible body coupled to the orifice ring, the flexible body having at least an outer layer a waterproof barrier layer disposed inside the outer layer and sealed to the orifice ring, and a puncture resistant layer disposed between the waterproof layer and an interior of the flexible body. Such a container is helpful for transporting fragile vessels such as wine while travelling.

A mat may be transitioned into at least three different operational configurations: (1) a substantially flat work surface configuration, for using the mat as a work or play surface; (2) a funnel like collection configuration, for facilizing collection and/or clean-up of articles upon a top of the mat; and (3) a folded configuration, for storage of the mat. The mat may have a removably sealable trapdoor for emptying of articles collected above the trapdoor. The trapdoor may be utilized in the funnel like collection configuration. Straps and/or handles may be used to transition from the substantially flat work surface configuration to the funnel like collection configuration.

A handbag includes first and second side panels. The first side panel includes oppositely disposed first and second outer sidewalls. A first zipper arrangement of a first profile is coupled to the first outer sidewall. A second zipper arrangement of the first profile is coupled to the second outer sidewall. The second side panel includes oppositely disposed first and second outer sidewalls. A first zipper arrangement of a second profile coupled to the first outer sidewall of the second side panel member. A second zipper arrangement of the second profile coupled to the second outer sidewall of the second side panel member. The zipper arrangements of the first profile can engage with each of the zipper arrangements of the second profile. A compartment is formed by one of the outer sidewalls of the first and second side panels.

A utility bag system having a body that includes a first shell. The utility bag system can include a utility extension having a second shell. The utility bag system can include a fastener arranged to removably attach the utility extension to the body. The body can include at least one of a body portion, a lid portion, and a storage unit.
