Video Transcription

there's a parakeet got here we sold a ton of compressor gear bags on our website and now I'm introducing a new bag some of you who watch a lot of our videos and stuff like that may have may have seen me use this a time or two on a couple videos although I didn't really talk about it too much but this is our this our new compressor gear bag of fact it's so different we're calling it a multi-purpose gear bag and this thing right here it's a beast yeah there's a lot of stuff you can do it do with this thing let me show you a little bit about what you can do with this bag alright so so as you can see I've now turned this multi-purpose gear bag into a backpack now I don't compare this to some high range backpack or whatever something like that but we're turning a bag that's normally used for other purposes into potentially something that can be used to to pack with and I've and I've packed like I say I've backpacked around and through my gear into here and taken off and it's been very comfortable and cozy work to work the job for me but I could I can adjust my shoulder straps right here so I can tighten it up loosen it up or whatever and so it's it's designed to be very simple not to have a lot of bells and whistles but to have the essential things enables you to carry all your essential gear whatever you need to wherever you need it's a lot easier to throw this on your back and carry it off then to have a bag that you know you might have to carry with your hands this way this thing's on my back so I got hands-free if I'm having a scramble of a rock throw up some kind of a trail or whatever and I need my hands for balance sort of maneuver through things my hands are free and my essential gear is on my back just like all of our other gear bags or compressor gear bags this gear bag will also compress a lot a lot of things such as blankets and sleeping bags and stuff like that you can compress them down to half or less than half of the original thickness and what I've got in here is actually something that's going to be subject of another discussion so I can i can use this bag like an extra large compressor gear bag this is 24 inches at its normal capacity but you can take this thing up to 26 or 27 inches tall 10 inches 10 half inches diameter and so you got 20 20 100 cubic inches or what were in this bag so here's what we here's here's what we got here something else going on here okay I can unclip these straps right here I can take this Molly panel and I can clip it in clip it in just like this using the same straps you're using for compression and we can still we can still do some compression with it the Molly panel is primarily intended to to allow you to fill the bag up with things and then take other things that have Molly attachment and put it onto here and attach something else to the bag as well so that way you can customize it so so that's pretty cool because that allows you to carry some extra stuff outside the pack here and and it works very nice now I've used this on hikes and camps and stuff like that I've shoved my blanket my blanket that I normally use shoved it in there I've shoved my cookware food all that kind of thing in here and just and then just use this to all my gear around so now whether it's in a prepper type situation or whatever it might be you know you get stranded somewhere you thought you're going to stay there turns out you got to hike out or something like that this is in your vehicle or whatever you throw your essential gear in here you throw this thing on your takeoff and you and your hike on out so it's a compressor bag that can do many other things

you

now you might might want to know well how I'm doing all that well this thing has something else we can do as well we could actually we can actually leave this clip the end these straps here we can leave these straps clipped in and then we got have another buckle right here we can clip another strap into the buckle just like that now we bring this strap down here to the bottom clip it in there on an extra buckle in the bottom I'm not going to show it right here it's just a quickie little deal but all these straps are they can be woven back in here and clip them in here out of those out of the way but anyway so this right here becomes shoulder straps so and one other thing i like is i really like the fact that essentially other than the molly panels that sort of thing it's one big bag so you're not rummaging through a bunch of different pockets to try to remember where did I put this or what I put that and also a lot of times you get too compartmentalized in some type of pack setups it's so compartmentalized sometimes you need a big space just to hold one item but you can't because it's broken up into little compartments this being one big open bag you just organized as you want to and what i do i put the soft items like I'll stuff my blanket or whatever or clothing or something in here against the side that my backpack is going to be again you know my packs that be but against my back the harder items or whatever I put them on the outside that way I have built-in cushioning without having to do any other kind of cushioning at all its built-in by the way I pack the pack but you know there might be some times you want to do this bag up and you may not be able to fill it all the way so here's here's another way that's easier than you don't want to just compress empty space here that's a little more cumbersome so what we do here is a snap right there we take and we pull this thing over a few times nowhere whatever you need to get down to where you need to be clip that buckle right there now now you see I've got I've got this thing collapsed down smaller without without just flat out I just flat out putting the using a compressor straps that's a much neater way to take up a bunch of empty space so anyway this is just a little intro into into this deal we're going to show you lots and lots of things we've got several people out there who have these who are also testing them in the new configuration here and so really excited to introduce this and it will go along with our gear being trying to be multi-purpose multifunction and to be simple and straightforward so perry peacock with wilderness innovation with our new multi-purpose gear bag or you could call it our extra large compressor compressor gear bag but it does so much more that we kind of give it a new name have fun in the outdoors enjoy your time out you know you simple gear use something that works for you perhaps this perhaps this will work for you maybe not but you know it kind of depends on your needs but I think you might find this will work very very well for your situation have a great day
