The Pandora Carryall. Built By You, For You.
Bad Wolf Outfitters is set to revolutionize the art of device storage and transportation with their latest project, The Pandora Carryall.
Asheville – September 18, 2013— As inspired, tech-savvy professionals, the Bad Wolf Outfitters team knows what’s up when it comes to tech needs. It’s no longer enough to have the newest iPhone or Samsung Galaxy, to have the lightest laptop or highest-definition tablet. What good is all your high-tech gear when it runs out of battery life, or when you lose the bag that carries it all?
“The idea for The Pandora was born out of an almost annoyance. We were tired of buying things that were cool but not nearly as cool as they could be. We are both from a paramedic background so we are big on multi-functional things – that is, if it doesn’t have at least 2 uses it not worth carrying. Joey is a bike messenger now and I’m a geek/yogi – all of which share common ground in the venn-diagram of needing a bag like The Pandora Carryall.”
-Ryan Dawson, The Pandora Carryall Co-Creator
Because Sometimes, Your Backup Needs a Backup:
Here’s where The Pandora Carryall, the flagship project of Bad Wolf Outfitters, comes in. For every possible daily obstacle, The Pandora Carryall comes equipped with a highly technological (and covert) solution. To prevent unexpected power downs, our carryall comes equipped with a back-up battery and a solar panel to revive fading electronics. USB ports and a complimentary thumb drive store back-up data and connect to your gadgets to prevent loss of important work. An audio jack hooks up to speakers and can be activated via Bluetooth for impromptu office parties or an after-work dance session. A screen installed inside the bag gives the user information on battery life and data storage, and a dongle on the bag lets the owner locate it from their smartphone, in case its location is forgotten after a long night of networking.
“All of the options in this bag are for surviving in our modern world. Whether it be hiking, climbing, biking, or even something as simple carrying what is required of you at your job. This bag is born of necessity, and I hope it fills all the needs of people who need such a thing in their lives.”
– Joey DeLoachers, The Pandora Carryall Founder
Functionality Meets Form:
The Pandora Carryall is also miles ahead of its competitors in function and design. One of the current prototypes features military-grade Cordura Fabric, making it hardy enough for even the most adventurous professional. Depending on a person’s travel needs, it will double as a messenger bag and backpack, switching forms conveniently with a convertible strap. A Velcro compartment designed for phones will stick to the inside of the bag, so phones stay put. Exceptional organization is facilitated by specialized pockets and webbing. The satchel locks for security and even comes standard with a secret compartment.
Design It Before You Buy It:
Because The Pandora Carryall is still in the prototypical phase of production, Bad Wolf Outfitters is offering backers an opportunity no other crowd funding campaign has given–the chance to not only fund The Pandora Carryall, a vanguard in device transportation, but to customize their ideal carryall.
“We cannot stress enough how much we want feedback from backers and potential users in order to make The Pandora Carryall the highest quality and most ideal “smart” satchel.”
-Rebecca Chappell, The Pandora Carryall Project Manager
