When my kids were babies a “man’s” diaper bag looked like a leather satchel.
Thing was awesome, too. The flap was attached with Velcro and was padded plastic on the inside so you could use it as a changing mat.
It held about a dozen diapers and a full pack of wipes and a change of clothes and snacks.
All the moms at the park were jealous.
Mine was Hello Kitty. All the moms were jealous.
Mine was from not REI but somebody like REI, basically industrial strength camping gear baby kit and was also awesome. Lasted through my kids, then my sister’s, and now a cousins. Like 10 kids and almost 20 years and still looks nearly new.
Rei is for me a little girl controlling large robots, with a really concerning backstory
What is this REI you speak of?
Maybe I'm just out of the loop - and hope for not being alone in it
Recreational Equipment Inc. It's a big outdoor store in the US. They have camping and hiking stuff mostly, not really fishing or hunting.
And, just like Canada's MEC it used to be a co-op, and still likes to pretend to be a co-op, but is actually a for-profit corporation these days.
Sorta. I agree, they are a for profit company now. They do still let members vote on the board of directors, which is kinda cool, but it also seems like those elections are a sham with little to no oversight these days. And you can sell your own shit back to them, which is kinda co-op adjacent at least. What I really hate is that they got rid of their classes and trips, it was a big part of what drew me into the membership in the first place.
Thank you!
I would love to have a bag kind of like those cloth knife sets: rolls out into a change pad with all the goodies
