I stopped using the Sawyer bags years ago and just use the Cnoc Vecto bags. Much more durable, compact, and you can pick different colors for clean and dirty bags if you want. So it's available out there, just not offered by Sawyer.

Razco has one similar to what you describe

The problem with the Razco is for those of us that are equipped with a Keg instead of a 6-Pack, that it gets in the way of the keg and is rather uncomfortable.

A HPG Original or SAR Kit Bag that was another 1" in width and 1/2" in height. It is the best piece of outdoor gear I've every owned--bar none. Just wish they had a slightly larger version.

A layout blind or cover or SOMETHING that matches a cut beanfield and not stick out like a sore thumb for waterfowl season. Or just some kind of mirror that can be used to match exactly your surroundings for layout blinds that can be seen from above.

C'mon, Harry Potter can have an invisibility cloak, can't some tech company make something like this?!?

Motion field decoys that don't break the bank, aren't $150 for one decoy and don't run on AA batteries that only last for 30 min.

Some kind of kite system that can fly in the air like a goose/duck that's on a pulley or reel system that can be "reeled in" to mimic a goose landing. And then somehow shoot back up in the air after geese pass. Something with a button that you click the button and the decoy is reeled in. Then reset and shot back in the air for the next flock.

Or a decoy that flies and can be on a remote, or programed to fly and then glide in to a specific spot to mimic live geese/ducks. Because they're all monkey-see-monkey-do.

For me, that wrap-around strap they add for more retention is the PITA with their setup. Bugs having to fuss with that when suiting-up.

I like the speed of the draw, but that extra strap just bugs when in the field.

Switched over to Marsupial's Gen2 with their own under-hanging holster setup now, that doesn't require that strap. It's not a kydex, but truthfully? Not much slower at all. So win-win in my book. And it fits a variety of pistols so another win-win.

They need to make something like these VAPUR Water Bag/Bottles.. but offer one that's tougher skinned and verified to be Buckthorn-proof! (Heavy Duty Puncture Resistance)

I'm sure there exists materials to do it now.

A small enough and lightweight enough Metal Detector so that you can bring it with you when Bow Hunting!

To aid in arrow retrieval after a miss. (And yes, I know there are Bluetooth'd knocks now)

Yeah, for hunting on the ground for turkeys or deer. But for laying out in a cut beanfield with geese flying directly overhead, they won't do anything.

If there was some way to angle a mirror of the ground upwards towards the sky, and use that as a cover, now THAT would be something.

Take a picture of the ground, have it printed on a blanky, and lay under it. Actually don't, I'm going to make those and sell them and get rich. But I'll sell you one for only $300.
