This is the first new expand top design we have made based on customer's request.
Begin with:
Raymond spoke and emailed us some drafting of a pet carrier design with reference to other brand products. We initially refused to just duplicate another design. After some discussion, we were able to understand the function Raymond wanted to incorporate and came up with this design.
There are a lot of details in this design but Raymond was very pleased with it. There is one feature that needs adjustment - the bag tilts forward after sliding the telescopic handle through the lower back sleeve. We send out an adjustable strap to add another point of attachment via the two car seat strap loops to level the bag.
The amount of details in this bag is very impressive. We did underestimated the time and cost for this design. Oh well!
Harlow loves her bag
End with:
It is exactly what I had in mind!!!
Harlow loves her bag and even sleeps in it when at home. We were in NYC this weekend, and everything worked great, I love this bag.
