Bag It, Tag It, Carry It
If you’re a fan of tool bags, DeWalt has a new offering for you: a 24-pocket closed top bag targeted at contractors. Add to that eight interior pockets, a couple of flap-covered exterior pockets, a drawstring, and a durable polyurethane and ballistic poly fabric construction, and you’ve got one slick yellow-and-black carryall.
DeWalt says a number of the external pockets are perfect for your utility knife and measuring tape, and the tape pocket includes a little grabber to hold the tape in by its clip. And its padded shoulder strap is removable in case that’s not your style.
Street pricing starts around $38.

I wish manufacturers would include a rain cover for bags like this. Some of us can’t park in the garages of our customers and we also live in Oregon where rain is simply a fact of life. I did find one similar that has a rain cover but it has one problem – it’s not yellow and black like everything (almost) in my truck. Now, I will have to see if my rain cover will fit this bag.
@Jerry, agreed!, a rain cover would be an excellent addition. Maybe something that is attached, and rollup, or at least stowable, say in a pouch between the pockets, and the bag body.
Not only would it keep out rain, but it could be useful for really dusty sites as well.
no rain cover?
How about using grey cordura on the inside so I can see my tools down there.
How about building a bag big enough to fit a DeWalt cordless 15 ga 18 volt nailer in it.
How about tone down the yellow (albeit this bag is tasteful). I feel like a dork when i put on my bumble bee stuff and look like joe home depot.
This bag is a good effort, but needs more real world functionality…..like every other bag made today.
It doesn’t need a rain cover. thats what a spare hefty bag is for.
So my truck cap is overkill?
