How might we redesign our current “Chossy Chalk Bag” for ease of manufacturing and improved durability?
Current design featured:
The chossy chalk bag is made partially from upcycled climbing rope and partly from ripstop nylon. Functionality dictates its form. This bag combines both materials for peak performance.
Features:
-Reinforced rim
-Fleece lining
-Elastic brush loop
-Elastic carabiner loop
-Two loops for a belt
5" diameter
7" height
Current hickups include: long production time 1.5hrs, difficult finishing seam, high wear on industrial sewing machines, occasional split along the arc of the rope and fabric.
Concept Ideation of Cossy Chalk Bag:
Looking at unique construction methods that can blend 2-3 different upcycled fabrics to complement the fabric properties.![]()
