By way of background, pockets in clothing provide a convenient and accessible place to store essential items like keys, wallets, phones, and more. Having these items easily accessible makes daily tasks like running errands or commuting much more manageable. Pockets also provide comfort and security of such items. However, many clothing including women dresses, yoga pants, leggings, skirts, swimwear, and more do not have pockets. The problem of not having pockets in clothing can cause several inconveniences for individuals. One of the primary issues is the difficulty of carrying a cell phone, which has become an essential item in modern society. Without pockets, individuals may have to hold their phone in one hand, leaving them with only one free hand to move or do other tasks. This can be particularly frustrating if they need to use their other hand for carrying bags or opening doors.
Additionally, not having pockets can result in leaving phones and other essential items behind, as individuals may be hesitant to carry them in one hand and risk dropping or losing them. This can lead to missed important phone calls, texts, emails, or other notifications, which can have serious consequences, such as missing a job offer or urgent message.
Some individuals carry big and bulky bags or backpacks which is a hassle. Such bags weigh individuals down and cause discomfort or strain on their shoulders or back. Moreover, finding items within a bag can be time-consuming and frustrating, especially if the bag is filled with numerous items. Sifting through a bag can be particularly challenging when individuals are in a hurry or in a crowded public space. Individuals desire a compact and easy-to-use pocket device that functions as a pocket for cell phones and other small personal items.
Therefore, there exists a long felt need in the art for a convenient storage pocket bag for storing cell phones and other small personal items. There is also a long felt need in the art for a pouch and strap bag device that enables users to transport their cell phone without having to hold it in an individual's hand. Additionally, there is a long felt need in the art for a pocket style pouch bag designed to easily store cell phones for easy accessibility. Moreover, there is a long felt need in the art for a pouch and strap bag device that obviates use of bulky bags and backpacks for storing cell phones. Further, there is a long felt need in the art for a phone pocket bag that enables users to wear clothing without pockets while able to transport their cell phone in the pocket bag. Furthermore, there is a long felt need in the art for a compact storage bag that obviates sifting through items and saves time to access items. Finally, there is a long felt need in the art for a compact, lightweight, and customized bag that offers a convenient way to carry a cell phone without having to carry it or carry around a purse/backpack.
The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a pouch and strap bag device for storing a cell phone and other small personal items securely with easy accessibility. The device is lightweight and compact and features a storage bag body having a height and a width, the height exceeding the width, an adjustable crossbody shoulder strap attached to the bag body through a pair of hooks, the bag body has a storage space therein for storing a cell phone and other personal items, the storage space has a plurality of zippers for storing items, a top opening on the bag body with a fastener for protecting the items stored therein from weather elements, and an integrated wireless charger pocket connected to and stored inside the bag body for receiving and charging a cell phone wirelessly.
