TANAX releases compact body bags and holster bags that are convenient for short tours

Tanax, a specialist manufacturer of motorcycle accessories, has released compact body bags and waist bags that are convenient for short tours and day trips. While carefully planned long tours are fun, spontaneous short tours and walking tours are also fun. At times like these, a large touring bag can be a nuisance, and it can also be a little unsettling to go out without anything. In response to requests for a compact bag that can hold only the essentials, they have developed a bag suitable for short tours and one-day tours. It will be on sale from October 24th.

■Half-Day Touring West

This waist bag was developed specifically for short trips with a half-day return journey. Its slim and compact design means it won’t get in the way of your riding, and it doesn’t require you to worry about your riding position. It features a three-sided storage design with a 1-liter main pocket in the center and 0.5-liter side pockets on each side. The main pocket can hold a long wallet or 500ml water bottle, while the side pockets can hold a smartphone, keys, cards, coins, and other items. This allows for smooth payment at toll booths and prevents items from falling out of your pockets.

The Half Day series is a brand that makes items for riders who, in the current age of busy riders, have limited time and need to leave home early in the morning and return home before traffic jams, so they can enjoy short tours without stress. The brand aims to offer stylish and functional designs that do not hinder the rider’s movement.

This holster bag is designed specifically for short trips and is easy to put on and take off. This innovative holster bag can be worn simply by inserting the top flap into your riding pants pocket and wrapping the belt around your thigh. It takes just three seconds to put on. It can be worn on either leg, and you can also use it as a belt holster if it’s difficult to fit your gear into your riding pants pocket or you’re worried about it falling out. The main pocket has a roll-up closure, making it safe even in sudden rain showers, and it also comes with a waterproof inner pouch. Its four-compartment design, including a waterproof compartment and easy-access pockets, allows you to quickly access what you need. It’s also MOLLE compatible, so it can be expanded, and the waterproof inner liner is available as a replacement part, allowing for extended use.

This four-way day bag can be used in four different ways to suit your style. Attach the belts to your waist and legs to turn it into a regular leg holster. Use the belt loops on the back to turn it into a waist holster. Extend the waist belt and wear it as a sash to turn it into a sacoche. Attach the optional magnet to turn it into a tank bag, making it a 4-way holster bag. The capacity increases from the standard 2.8 liters to 4.6 liters when the zipper is opened, increasing the capacity to the same level as a tank bag. It’s also compatible with MOLLE products, so it can be expanded even further. Equipped with two front pockets, it’s easy to organize and quickly access what you need.
