Quick answer
For most collections, an oblong storage bag offers more versatile packing for longer items like spankers and restraints, while a cylindrical bag is better for rolled or coiled gear. Choose based on what you store most.
Shape matters: how each bag packs your gear
The main difference between the cylindrical and oblong bags is how they accommodate your items. The oblong bag's elongated shape is ideal for laying out longer tools like spankers and restraints without bending them. The cylindrical bag, with its round cross-section, suits rolled items like floggers or coiled rope, allowing them to sit naturally without creasing.
Both bags are made from high-quality velvet and close with a drawstring, so the material and closure are the same. The choice really comes down to the shape of your gear and how you like to organize it.
Travel and discretion: what to consider
If you travel with your gear, the shape of the bag affects how it fits in luggage. An oblong bag might slide into a suitcase's main compartment, while a cylindrical bag can tuck into corners or fit in a duffel's round ends. Both are discreet, with no distinguishing marks, so they won't draw attention during transit.
Think about whether you prefer to pack flat or roll your items. The oblong bag encourages flat packing, which can help maintain the shape of leather items. The cylindrical bag works well if you already roll your gear to save space.
Which bag should you choose?
- If you store mostly long, flat items: Choose the oblong bag. It lets you lay out spankers and restraints without bending them, which helps maintain their shape. Check if your longest item fits without folding.
- If you store rolled or coiled gear: Go with the cylindrical bag. It accommodates rolled floggers or rope naturally, keeping them secure and tangle-free. Consider whether rolling your gear saves space in your drawer.
- If you travel often: Think about your luggage. The oblong bag is easier to pack flat in a suitcase, while the cylindrical bag can fit into corners or duffel ends. Visualize how each shape will fit in your travel bag before deciding.
