Start with how each bag will be carried

Write the main carry position beside each model in the range. The structured zip-top tote is listed for shoulder or hand carry, while the MG5001 and MG5003 are crossbody bags with adjustable shoulder straps. A gym duffel can use dual handles with a removable shoulder strap, and the MG8010 uses adjustable shoulder straps. These choices give the brief a clear starting point before you set sizes or pocket details.

Match the format to the product role

Use the product's intended role to decide which carry format belongs in the range. The structured tote is specified to carry a tablet, notebook, phone, wallet, and daily essentials. MG5001 is sized for a phone, small tablet, keys, wallet, and daily essentials. MG8010 is listed for a laptop, tablet, phone, headphones, mouse, camera, and other daily essentials. Keep those load lists beside the carry format so a new custom model does not inherit a strap choice without a clear reason.

Compare the attachment details behind the carry label

A carry label does not describe the full construction. MG5003 has an adjustable shoulder strap with a quick-release buckle. The boxy gym duffel has dual carry handles and a removable shoulder strap. MG8003 has a top carry handle, adjustable shoulder straps, and side storage pockets. Record the handle or strap count, adjustment method, attachment points, and any buckle or clip shown in the selected reference.

Check size and access with the carry format

Review the opening and dimensions while the bag is carried in its intended position. MG5001 is listed at 35 × 12 × 27.5 cm, MG5003 at 41 × 32 × 16 cm, and MG8010 at 31 × 14.5 × 49 cm. The structured tote is listed at 41 × 29 × 12 cm with a zip-top closure. Put the stated load into the sample, adjust the strap or handles, and check whether the opening and pockets remain easy to reach.

Keep one carry brief for the whole range

Record the model, carry format, strap or handle details, dimensions, fabric, lining, pocket layout, logo request, and sample notes in one specification. Mark which details come from a current product reference and which need confirmation in the approved sample. This makes it easier to compare the range and gives the supplier a precise list when a carry format changes during development.

Discuss a custom bag range
