Carry History :: The WWII Jerrycan
…wo cans that were next to each other with one hand. Thus, allowing them to carry four filled Jerrycans at once. If they weren’t so buff, they could still carry four empty cans without any problem. Full or empty, it would have been impossible for one soldier to carry four flimsies – the Jerrycan allowed for both.

Aer Travel Sling 2 Review
…stly, the Aer Travel Sling 2 features two external lash straps, which is a carry-over feature from the original design. I imagine it would be useful if one was carrying something like an umbrella or a tightly rolled jacket, but I personally found little use for them; they felt a bit vestigial to me and I would have preferred if they were removable. They do mostly stay out of the way, which is appreciated. But for a company so focused on clean and…

The size of the LGD is flexible enough that it can carry smaller items, such as your daily carry essentials, or even larger items like water bottles, a light jacket or even your camera.

But I do suggest keeping things on the slimmer side for this particular area. The exterior zipper pocket is anot…
Cumulus Singapore | Carry Retailers

It’s in give-away bags for companies and conferences. Those terrible cheap things with “Jim’s Franchisee Conference 2010 Las Vegas” poorly embroidered on a patch at the front. That’s pretty sad. The next biggest area is in really boring derivative styles for terrible department stores and…
