Tuesday arrives, BFD is in session. 🙂 SXSW is in full motion here in Austin, so the whole city is a little more electric than usual. It’s a fun energy to experience. It’s been a wonderful first few days having the website launched! Thank you everyone here for all of the encouragement!
Sincerity Inside: Tech Specs
Frequently asked question: what are the specs on these first bags? Here’s a quick bullet list of the tech specs and materials used in Sincerity Inside — I’ll also include some links to various posts I’ve done about different parts of the bag below:
- Dimensions: 10.5in x 16in x 5.5in (width, height, depth)
- Printed Fabric: Polyester, made from recycled plastic bottles. This fabric comes from a US based fabric supplier called Aurora Textile. The artwork is printed using dye-sublimation print – printed in the US (Tennessee).
- Rest of the bag: Nylon. The pockets are lined with 2-ply Taslan Nylon on one side and heavy ballistics nylon on the other. The straps and the inside of the bag also both feature a mix of ballistics nylon, more printed polyester, and a rubberized foam (laptop sleeve, back of the bag, and in the straps).
- Buckles: Chrome plated aluminum buckles.
- Rubberized Logo Patches: PVC – molded and manufactured in the US (California)
- Padded laptop sleeve inside the bag: Mesh nylon and neoprene foam. The laptop sleeve comfortably fits a 15” laptop.
- Zippers: The zippers are unusually large (#10 coil) making it easier to open and close.
- First 100 bags: we also include a high quality print of the artwork that is featured on the bag. The bag itself is a limited edition run of 100, and each one is hand-signed by the artist, Cheryl Hicks.
Here are some various past blog posts about different parts of the bag:
- The Lid
- One side of the bag
- The other side of the bag
- The FRONT
- The back
- Inside the bag (I still owe the blog some updated photos of the inside of the bag … coming soon :-))
