A Quest for Quality and Fresh Perspectives
As DJs, we’re passionate about our craft. But let’s face it: the quality and design of existing DJ bags often leave much to be desired. That’s why I embarked on a mission—to revolutionize the way we transport our gear. It became clear that progress required more than just copying what already existed; we needed innovation, fresh thinking, and a touch of rebellion.
Breaking Free from Tradition
Say goodbye to the mundane three-sided opening design. We’ve torn up the rulebook and birthed the Hybrid Design. It’s not just a tweak; it’s a complete overhaul. Here’s how we did it:
Identifying the Failures:
Zips and Pulls: Why settle for flimsy cosmetic zips and pulls that aren't even suitable for a jacket? And don’t get me started on zip tensioners—they seem to be mythical creatures.
Padding and Lining: Some bags out there barely offer any protection. It’s like wrapping your gear in a tissue.
Materials Mismatch: Inferior materials that don’t match the importance of the equipment they cradle.
One-Size-Fits-None: Generic bags designed to accommodate everything but fitting nothing perfectly.
The Ingredients for Success:
Industrial Zips, Pulls, and Tensioners: No compromises here. Our bags boast heavy-duty zips and tensioners that mean business.
Handmade by DJs, for DJs: We’re not just designers; we’re part of the community. Our bags understand your needs.
British Craftsmanship: Each bag is born in the UK, using top-tier materials—the kind that laughs at wear and tear.
Full Lining and Padding: Your gear deserves the royal treatment. Our bags provide it.
Fully re-designed from the ground up!
The Hybrid Zip Solution: This is where the magic happens.
It All Goes Out Of The Window At 1AM!
We had to address how we as DJs use each bag, how we store, pack and move each item and apart from poor quality materials and design, what was causing the 3 sided DJ Booth Bags to fail so often.... and I'm afraid to say it's US!
All bets are off when packing up at 1am. I'm sure everybody is careful when loading the car and transporting their equipment to the gig but we all know (and I include myself in this) that is all goes out of the window when we are trying to pack up and get home. The main issue with DJ Booth bags that open on 3 sides, is that you literally throw the Booth and/or Shelf in and there is only so many times you can do this before the bag fails.
The Hybrid Solution
Picture this: a zip that doesn’t just run across the top but wraps around each corner, stopping some distance down each side of the bag. The result? A wide-mouthed bag that lies flat. Here’s how it works:
Easy Loading: Lay the bag flat, lay your booth flat, slide one side in, then the other. Lift the bag, and voilà—the rest of your booth or shelf falls neatly into place.
Seconds Well Spent: Sure, it takes a couple of extra seconds to pack initially. But after a few gigs, you won’t even notice. What you will notice is a bag that outlasts the competition.
But What About the Classic 3-Sided Bags?
Yes, we still offer 3-sided opening bags and they will last longer than other products on the market. But here’s the secret: you don’t need them and you don't need to break the bank. Trust me, open your mind, and explore our Hybrid range at www.djbags.co.uk. These bags have been my companions for 18 months including a rigorous test phase and there are literally still no marks and no regrets.
Upgrade your DJ Booth Bags. Go Hybrid.
