Diggin Friendly Record Bags

I have discovered a very practical record bag.
It's called BackTpack.
It is like a vest with two bags on the left and right side, ergonomically constructed to allow for better comfort and posture than a backpack. The load goes onto your vertical axis and hips, rather than hanging off your shoulders like a regular backpack.
It has room to carry round 80 records on your body (perfect for gigs in bars where you cannot afford a cab).
Even if it's filled, you can still sit or kneel down and dig in crates.
It's handy for traveling (it qualifies as a "personal item" on airlines, so you can bring an additional carry-on).
You can ride a bike without it getting in your way.
Attached are some photos.

please find me a shot of a fat man wearing this contraption b/w good luck pulling chicks if you are out in public wearing that.
chicks dig dudes with babies..........records aren't quite the same HA
Would be perfect to integrate the bags and the tank into a cratedigging-overall made from breathable goretex-fiber that has integrated soft pads to protect your kneecaps while digging crates kneeling on the floor. Fold-out gloves would be nice too for winter-digs and an extendable headlight for the early bird moments on the flea. There's still a lot of work to be done but we'll get there.
Let's do this.
there should be a version that comes with a mask and a wet wipe dispenser, for the more adventurous digger.
also, a fold-out portable that hangs over your torso.
Dope! Jared, Forrest and all. RIP Big City Records. The blueprint of a diggers record shop!
