An expandable sling bag has a shape and a shoulder strap that enable the sling bag to be worn across an individual's back, chest and/or abdomen, or side, under the individual's arm. The expandable sling bag includes an expandable receptacle that enables the sling bag to accommodate an oversized item, such as a portable computer, a sleeve for a portable computer, or the like, with dimension that exceed a height of the sling bag. More specifically, the expandable sling bag may include a receptacle with an opening at its top, an expandable base positionable within a bottom portion of the receptacle, and a bottom opening through which the expandable base may be extended to expand a length of the receptacle. Methods of using an expandable sling bag to carry oversized items are also disclosed.

An adjustable pouch having a front portion, rear portion, first side portion, and a second side portion that are connected to a bottom portion and collectively defines an interior space that may be configured to receive different sizes of ammunition magazines is disclosed. The front and rear portions include a plurality of straps that extend lengthwise and the first and second side portions include a plurality of channels. The plurality of straps and the plurality of channels are configured to receive an elastic member having free ends that are tied together. In operation, an individual can pull on the tied free ends of the elastic member in order to adjust the volume of the interior space to accommodate ammunition magazines of different sizes.

The present application discloses a device including a first triangular panel, a second triangular panel, a first side panel coupling the first triangular panel and the second triangular panel at a first common side of the first triangular panel and the second triangular panel, a second side panel coupling the first triangular panel and the second triangular panel at a second common side of the first triangular panel and the second triangular panel, a bottom panel coupling the first triangular panel, the second triangular panel, the first side panel, and the second side panel, and at least one shelf coupled in an interior of the first triangular panel, the second triangular panel, the first side panel, and the second side panel.

An adjustable size suitcase includes a main body having a top section, a middle section and a bottom section that define a hollow interior space. A telescopic handle extends upward from the main body and a plurality of omnidirectional wheels are positioned along the bottom end of the main body. A frame is positioned within the hollow interior space of the main body and includes an upper frame assembly, a middle frame assembly and a lower frame assembly. The upper frame assembly includes a plurality of vertical frame members that are slidingly engaged to complementary located lower vertical frame members to permit vertical movement of the upper frame assembly relative to the lower frame assembly. An actuator is mechanically linked to a plurality of latches positioned within the bottom ends of each upper vertical frame member to selectively transition the suitcase between a first, second and third size.

An improved carrying article having a collapsible external compartment 14 is disclosed. The carrying article includes a body 12 defining a main compartment 13, a pocket 16 located at the lower end of an exterior wall 18 of the main compartment, the pocket having a pocket wall 46 and a pocket opening 48. The collapsible external compartment is stored in the pocket and is movable between a first position in which the collapsible external compartment is tucked within the pocket and a second position in which the collapsible external compartment is accessible outside of the pocket. The collapsible external compartment has at least one fastener 63 configured to secure a second end of the collapsible external compartment to an external surface of the carrying article near an upper end of the body such that the collapsible external compartment when secured to the main compartment in the second position provides an external compartment.

A reconfigurable waterproof bag is defined by a plurality of material surfaces extending in three dimensions, a strap for carrying the bag, and one or plurality of strap guide(s) into which the strap is disposed and through which the strap may be moved, the strap guide extending within or without the bag from any one of the plurality of surfaces to any other one of the plurality of material surfaces in three dimensional space without limitation to define a geometry of a strap path and coupling of the strap to the bag so that the bag is reconfigurable in a plurality of different carrying modes.

A backpack including at least one shoulder strap intended for carrying the backpack by a user includes a main pocket, connected to the at least one shoulder strap and a reinforcement, the main pocket having an inner surface internally delimiting a first compartment. The backpack also includes an outer enclosure constituting a piece separate from the main pocket, and an inner surface. A fastening system for the backpack is configured so that the backpack may occupy a separation configuration in which the outer enclosure is completely separated from the main pocket and a fastening configuration in which the reinforcement is secured to all or part of an outline of the outer casing. The inner surface of the outer enclosure and the outer surface of the main pocket internally delimit therebetween, when the backpack is in the fastening configuration, a second compartment separate from the first compartment.

A duffel bag can be reversibly converted to a cross-over bag by restricting the storage volume of the bag at one end. Optionally, a carrying strap may be adjusted from a central anchor to an outer anchor to facilitate draping the carrying strap over a shoulder.

An expandable/collapsible bag that can be configured into three different sizes—small medium, and large. It is of cylindrical shape, has three interconnected chambers, a zipper running along its entire length, three handles on top, and two drawstrings. When the bag is in its large configuration, all chambers are expanded and accessible. The two side chambers can collapse inwards into the middle chamber, allowing the size of the bag to be reduced. This can be done by collapsing and pushing the material of each side chamber into chamber B past the line of their adjacent drawstrings. Once the collapsed material from each side chamber is completely inside chamber B, then, their adjacent drawstrings can be cinched or pulled tight to close the ends of the bag. This keeps the collapsed material from the side chambers inside the middle chamber and prevents the bag from expanding when in use.
