Rollacrit

From the minds that brought you the original Bag of Holding, and Rollacrit’s Messenger Bag of Holding comes the new and improved version. This is the Con Bag of Holding.

Rollacrit is back with another Kickstarter to resurrect the original Con Bag of Holding for the modern convention goer. After countless years of testing, gathering feedback, and waiting for fashion technology to catch up with our vision, we’re ready to introduce you to the new Con Bag of Holding. It’s bigger, tougher, expandable, and ready for long days on the convention floor. The classic patch-friendly front returns, along with new front elastic straps that make it easy to carry a hoodie, jacket, or other convention essentials.

The front display area can be customized with optional accessories, including an ita display panel that helps protect your favorite pins, merit badges, patches, and keychains while you're navigating crowded convention halls. 

That’s right! We’ve found a way to protect your pins AND show them off. (See what we mean by fashion technology?)

Measuring at around 13.5” inches tall and 11.5” inches wide, this bag has a deep 4” inch base that gives it a solid feel. This bag is made for navigating cons with ease. Durable, compact, and perfect for carrying all your con treasures.

Features Built for You

With 18 dedicated storage areas, there's a place for everything. Carry more, show more. Expand from 20L to 22L, stash extra layers under the front bungee, and display your Merit Badges on the classic hook-and-loop panel.

Features include dual mesh side pockets for drinks, playmats, or poster tubes, a charging pass-through pocket with cable grommet, customizable elastic MOLLE organization, luggage handle pass-through for travel, and of course... a secret pocket waiting to be discovered.

We’ve reinforced the entire build of this bag to make it tougher, sturdier, and ready for heavier hauls.

With added structural support around the top handle, it stays solid even when you’re carrying a full day’s worth of loot. The mesh drink pocket has been expanded and strengthened to fit larger bottles more securely, giving you better hydration options on the go. Throughout the design, we’ve upgraded stress points and material layering for improved durability, and the outer shell now uses water‑resistant materials to help protect your gear from rain, spills, and whatever elemental surprises your adventure throws at you.

Each Con Bag of Holding is handmade, crafted with care and precision. 

With the kind of detailing these bags require, we couldn’t leave it up to machinery. That also makes this bag feel more like a true piece of one-of-a-kind adventuring gear.

This bag is sized to travel smoothly.

This bag has a slim footprint and sits securely on top of most rolling carry‑ons and is easy to maneuver through busy terminals. 

For TSA and airline sizing, what matters most is the under‑seat footprint, not the height, so when you lay the bag on its side, the compact base fits within the typical personal‑item guidelines used by most major airlines. 

Customizations

Show off your collection your way. With the optional Ita Conversion Kit, swap the front panel for a clear display window and showcase your favorite pins and patches.

The optional, reversible insert features a pin and patch display on one side and a dedicated keychain organizer on the other, giving you the perfect way to carry, protect, and display what you love.

Boring straps deserve to be banished to the Forgotten Realm, because you deserve better than dull gear that barely holds up. Our straps come in bold, eye‑catching prints and are crafted from durable nylon seatbelt material, giving them serious strength. They’re designed to be comfortable, dependable, and stylish enough to upgrade every carry.
