Personalized bag

Abstract

The present disclosure describes products and methods for customizing carrying bags that allows users to express their individuality. The products and methods provide for users to periodically modify and update their carrying bag by easily attaching, moving, removing, or adding one or more patches or pieces of art. The products and methods include constructing sections of a carrying bag of hook-and-loop material and constructing patches or other pieces of art from corresponding hook-and-loop material to facilitate securing such patches to the carrying bag. Once secured, the patches can be easily removed from the bag, moved to a different section of the bag, or other patches can be added to change the customization and personalization over time.

We claim: 
     
         1 . A system for customizing a carrying bag, comprising:
 a carrying bag, wherein at least one section of the carrying bag is constructed from hook-and-loop material; and   one or more patches where each patch includes a substrate constructed from hook-and-loop material.   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claims 1 , wherein the carrying bag is construed from loop material and the substrate of the patches is constructed from hook material. 
     
     
         3 . The system of  claims 1 , wherein the carrying bag is construed from hook material and the substrate of the patches is constructed from loop material. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claims 1 , wherein a front panel of the carrying bag is at least partially constructed from hook-and-loop material. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 4 , wherein the front panel includes an upper panel and a lower panel. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 5 , wherein the upper panel and lower panel are constructed from a hook-and-loop material. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 1  wherein a back panel of the carry bag is constructed from hook-and-loop material. 
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 1  wherein a back panel of the carry bag is constructed from hook-and-loop material. 
     
     
         9 . The system of  claims 1 , wherein the hook-and-loop material is a heavy brushed polymer material. 
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 9 , wherein the heavy brushed polymer material is a blend of polyester and one of spandex, lycra, or elastane. 
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the ratio of the blend is ninety percent or more polyester to ten percent or less of spandex, lycra, or elastane.
