- The bag is designed in such a way that it can be carried in several fashions:
- For starters you can hang it on your own belt using the two belt loops included in the pattern. This is in case you want to lower the bag a bit and not pass the waist belt through the upper loop that's sewn on the back of the bag which is another option that comes through this design as you may observe in some of the photos.
- You can create a waist belt which is included in the pattern and that attaches itself to the bag similarly to how the thigh belt does. A great option in case your not wearing jeans or any trousers that support wearing a belt.
- Finally you can totally omit the use of carabiners and of 4 of the 5 D-rings required for the project and just pass the belts through the loops that are sewn on the back. This is particularly useful in case you don't have access to some of the hardware that we used or if you simply have some other belts from some other projects laying around the shop.

- We used 6 oz ( 2 mm ) vegetable tanned leather for the bag and the straps but you may use whatever comes handy.
On the accessories side this is what we used:
- 6 carabiners with an inner size of at least 25 mm
- 5 D-rings with an inner size of at least 25 mm
- 2 buckles with an inner size of at least 30 mm
- 20 rivets of your own choice in size
- We used Fiebing's Pro oil dye for this job and it was 'Walnut' and 'Saddle tan' in this particular instance, in case you wish to reproduce the color of the reference model.
- You may use whatever tool you have at hand for punching out the stitching holes but should you happen to have access to a Craftool 3 mm punching chisel set, it would considerably lower the amount of work as the holes are spaced to suit using such tools. You may google ‘Tandy 88045-6’ for more information.

- The project is put together using saddle stitching so make sure you can reproduce it before buying.
