The Mesh Record Tote Bag is designed for DJs who travel from place to place, carrying some records with them and therefore require something portable and safe for transporting their records.

Fear of Bending Your Records

For many DJs and record collectors, records are their prize possessions and keeping them safe from dust and warping is always top of mind. Some travel from place to place, carrying only a small number of their favourite records, awaiting for the moment that they can share their recent haul with their friends. As such they would place it in a much smaller and portable bag (like a tote bag, or backpack), not those large UDG trolley ones just to carry five to ten records.

Only to their worse nightmares, they pull out the records from their bags discovering that they have been warped because of how unsuitable the bags were for transporting them.

According to shelflife masters, Life Storage Blog: “Records that have been stored at a slant for an extended period of time can warp because of the uneven pressure that has been placed on them.”

Exercise Record Care

If you’re guilty of squeezing your records or documents into a small totebag with a narrow base, you would have then been victims of having your items bend or warped at the base.

With this in mind, we designed the Mesh Record Tote Bag to help prevent records from bending as much as possible while making it portable. The base is a foldable canvas made from a thick and durable fabric that flattens out whenever goods are placed in it. Keeping the base flat and strong helps any item you put inside the bag sit comfortably. The Mesh body also helps promote air circulation as “sealing your records can lead to the creation of a damaging micro-climate…” - Discogs. So, you want to be airing them as much as possible, and let them sit in a comfortable position, even if only for a short while.

So if you’re often walking around with records, or loads of highly protected stuff squeezed into your bags, this bag is a solution to your possible nightmares to come.
