Versatile Crossbody Bags

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Bolstr Bag Has Lots of Pockets and Slots for All Your Guy Stuff

— August 27, 2014 — Fashion
The Bolstr bag, designed by Cleveland, Ohio native Jay Yoo, is a thin bag that features pockets for all the things that guys carry, from smartphones to laptops to wallets to sunglasses.

This everyday carry bag is designed to carry those items in addition to cameras, headphones, external batteries, notebooks, pens, pocketknives and other guy stuff. The thoughtfully designed backpack contains a plethora of pockets that make life a lot easier for guys on the go. Despite its slim, compact design, the bag still has enough capacity to store a 16-ounce water bottle.

Yoo describes the Bolstr bag's design philosophy as "less-is-more", pointing out that most men would rather not have to "lug around an oversized laptop bag, strap on a fanny pack, or carry some funky man purse, just to accommodate a few more every day carry items".
