Hang Sack
Connectable sacoche
With a wide variety of pouches available today, such as sacoches and fanny packs, yet another new option has emerged: the "Hang System," a mechanism sure to appeal to gear enthusiasts.
This fun pouch offers a different kind of use compared to the " Wrap Sack " sacoche proposed by "OGAWAND".
Hang it up or take it down
At first glance, the "Hang Sack" looks like an ordinary, simple small pouch. However, it is actually an item full of ingenious features typical of "OGAWAND." The Velcro-fastened opening is a flap type, and when you flip it up, another layer of Velcro is revealed. This part has Velcro on both sides and employs "OGAWAND's" original "Hang System" mechanism, which allows it to connect to the opening of the "pad sleeve" (the part for storing the back pad) inside the backpack. The attachment method is also very simple: just stick the Velcro together and "sandwich and hang."
While hiking in the mountains, it's best to store essential items like your wallet and car keys—things you absolutely cannot afford to lose—inside your backpack. However, these are also items you want to be able to quickly access when needed. The "Hang Sack" is a unique pouch that can be used as an inner pocket during your hike, and then quickly retrieved and used as a shoulder bag after descending or arriving at a mountain hut.
Opens easily, closes snugly
The feel of using it as a sacoche is also unique. The Velcro-type opening opens completely in one go by pulling the center part back and forth. It requires less effort to open and close than zipper types that you pull from side to side, and it has the advantage of being less likely to get stuck or malfunction due to jamming. The opening is always facing upwards, so it is easy to see the contents when looking in from above, and when closing it, you just need to lightly press down from above, which helps prevent you from forgetting to close it.
The side loops also have a unique feature. These loops are for attaching the shoulder strap, but the base of the loops starts from both the outside and inside of the pouch. This allows you to store not only the shoulder strap but also items attached to the loops inside without having to remove them. Straps and other items tend to get caught on various things when packed inside a backpack, making packing difficult, but with these loops, you can tuck everything away so nothing sticks out, reducing that kind of stress.
The shoulder strap is made of supple grosgrain tape with a width of 20 mm. When used as a sacoche, it has a light and comfortable fit that conforms to the body, and when used as an inner pocket, it slides smoothly inside and does not get in the way. The main body size is 23 cm wide x 14 cm high, with a gusset (depth) of about 3 cm at the bottom. Sacoches are convenient, so it's easy to end up putting a lot of things in them, but as a result they can become heavy, causing shoulder pain or hindering walking. The "Hang Sack" was carefully designed to be neither too big nor too small.
The colors currently available include "Spectra" and "X-Pac," which are used in OGAWAND backpacks, as well as the uniquely distinctive "Lite Skin" and the cutting-edge "Ultra" series (more to be added periodically). You can match the color to your backpack, use a slightly different color, or even switch them out depending on the situation, such as for hiking, resting, or fishing. The "Hang System" is also used in the inner pocket of the "Mountain Bag" from Yama-Omoi Bag , so you can enjoy switching them out as well.
