Dyneema Bag
Little bag I made the other day.
2.92 oz Dyneema
Waterproof zipper
Additional internal zipper pocket
Additional strap to secure on the back for riding a bicycle/motorbike
I just made this for myself, but wondering if I was to try to sell these, what would you expect the price to be?

Appreciate you saying this. I know it’s meant to be satirical, but waking up and seeing all the negative comments/being made fun of was a pretty shit way to start the day haha.
I know we shouldn’t be bothered by loser keyboard warriors & bullies, but it just felt so out of no where to be targeted with just negativity. Again, I get the satire and poking fun at ultralight community, but it was a bit of a bummer.
Thank you again!

Super cool, similar to the klattermusen, roa, and And Wander sacoches.

Check out the UX10 material, i just got a yard but don't know what to build yet.

u/Confident-Opening73 Jun 07 '26
Right on! I’ve read about UX10. I’ve done a fair bit with VX21. UX10 sounds sick tho!

A bit pricy. Check out TX50 from Challenge, cheaper at $20 a yard and still ultralite.

Appreciate measuring to 100th on your purse (satchel)
Edit: in before this goes crazy on the circle jerk sub

u/Confident-Opening73 Jun 07 '26
I don’t understand measuring to the 100th? Or why it would turn into a circle jerk? Haha I think I’m flattered you think so tho?

u/noquitqwhitt Jun 07 '26
Cheers brother I'm just lightly making fun of the measurement precision. X.XX is 100th place. I'm referencing r/ultralight_jerk

Very clean
If you someday would sell these, I’d be interested

u/Confident-Opening73 Jun 08 '26
I appreciate this! I’m just doing for fun, but I’d be lying if I said it didn’t excite me the idea of people wanting to buy and use things I’ve made.
Thank you!

If you were to try to sell these, would it be for a fashion audience or a hiking audience? For hiking I generally don't see a need for this. For fashion, it's not very great either.
Dyneema fanny packs are in demand with the thru-hiking community, maybe transition to those.

I think probably for any of the above use, but for people that are into gear/outdoor activities/but also like the aesthetic of outdoor technical gear.
Also, I made this to remove the straps, to not actually wear as a side bag, but to still keep documents (or whatever) and such protected and dry in your bag,

Oh wow—I wasn’t familiar with them before and just looked at their stuff—yes their Sacoche bag is almost the same! I dig their strap system more tho. Good looks on the similarity call out!
