I ask because my partner does handcrafted leather work and I want him to make me a carry bag for a few throws!
I think I most like the style of an old YYF bag Ive seen out of stock online. Messenger shape with 8 individual yoyo pockets under the flap, and the larger pocket for extras. But probably something a lot smaller for me.
If you could build your ideal yoyo carry device what would it be?
A CW hole for every yoyo hole would be my dream. But that’s foam related.
Pocket dimension bag. But irl I wouldn’t mind snagging a ZGRT pack
I really love the ZGRT backpack even though I wish it was a tad larger. That’s really the only complaint is it’s just a bit smaller than my needs for a trip. Would be nice if I could slide a 17 inch laptop in there with a charger and peripherals
I personally prefer a satchel style bag. Preferably leather with a snap that can also hold a laptop or document ls if needed but has a foam insert and compartment for yo-yos. This would also be a big bag probably that could fit at least a 14 if not 17 inch laptop if desired.
It’s probably not as small as you’d like, but I’d recreate the original Yomega High Performance bag. It’s a great EDC bag with a focus on Yoyos. It holds 24 throws, and has plenty of room for accessories.
I’d probably modify it so it’s more of a backpack rather than a messenger bag.
The ZGRT bag is my current EDC. I do love it and i agree it could be larger. I was able to fit my large tablet in it though, which is nice.
2-3 yo-yos in a fashionable and well secured case with enough loose storage to fit a DSLR body and 1 lens would be my ideal bag. The Unknown sling does this well but would love to see another take at this layout. Another example is the Fanny Pack by beyond
Ah didn’t think about Fanny pack. That’s another format I wouldn’t mind trying at some point.
I don’t really have big ideas for the ideal yoyo case but, I’ve always thought it would be cool to have a yoyo case with a large loop field on the front to add velcro patches to it to personalize it.
A nice slightly fashion-conscious leather holder, one that wouldn’t look out of place clipped onto a bag. The one thing I’d want that isn’t on any leather holder available though would just be some kind of extra clip or way to secure a counterweight to it.
It feels like there’s never any good way to secure a counterweight with a yoyo holder, they’re always gonna be awkwardly tucked into the holder loop, or just left dangling and potentially unwind the string.
Cool idea, I really like what ZGRT did with the KnuckleYo bag.
Isn’t there iron on hook and loop if so any bag can get a patch field. Haven’t looked into it but it’s a thought I’ve had.
I don’t know if you live by a leather shop but I had one near me put together a holster for me on the spot. I showed them the yo-yos and what I wanted and it costed me, like, $15.
I did black leather with silver snaps/belt clip and it looks good on my belt loop or on my school bag. With mine you notice the yo-yo more than the strap which I like. I keep a responsive in my pocket and an unresponsive on my belt.
One is none and two is one!
I actually have two holsters already, and honestly I’m not even sure what a good design to secure a counterweight would even be. I just put the knot loop over the clasp on the holder and it works, but looks kinda funky.
I’m also trying to figure that out. Just made a holster and love counterweghts. Has nobody come up with a solution for the counter weight?
These can also hang from a belt loop. An underrated design for bringing along a few.
