'Flatty Works', which is made of cloth and has a texture, has appeared in 'Flatty', which allows you to see the contents of the bag at a glance and can store petanco, so I tried using it.



From June 12, 2020 (Friday), 'Flatty Works ', which has a fabric-type texture, will be released from 'Flatty ', which is super convenient because the contents of the bag can be seen at a glance in a transparent case and space can be reduced by storing petanko. At the same time, it is said that a vertical type has also appeared in the standard flatty, so I tried to check the usability of the new flatty at once.

Introducing a new type of bulky bag-in-bag 'Flatty' that can neatly organize small items in your bag! | News 2020 | File and Tepra's King Jim

The fabric type 'Flatty Works' is available in A4 size (vertical / horizontal), A5 size (vertical / horizontal), A6 size, and card size. This time, A4 size (horizontal) yellow, A5 size (horizontal) mocha, I was able to borrow A5 size (vertical) navy and card size khaki. As it is made of fabric, it has a warm atmosphere.



First, let's look at A4 size (horizontal) yellow. The size is 235 x 325 x 35 mm, the whole is cloth, but only the front is transparent vinyl.



The fabric has a rough, hemp-like texture.



I put it side by side with the standard flatty (white). At first glance, Flatty Works seems to be one size larger, but ...



Seen from the side, the size itself is the same, but you can see that Flatty Works has a larger gusset, so the lid is larger and the overall size looks larger.



Flatty Works has a wide gusset of 35 mm, while the standard Flatty is 20 mm. Since the width is almost double, Flatty Works seems to be for people who want to put a lot of things.



In addition, Flatty Works has a plain transparent vinyl part on the front, but Flatty has a logo.



The back side looks like this.



It's a little confusing, but both Flatty Works and Flatty have pockets on the back.



Also, Flatty Works was on the back instead of having no logo on the front.



When I open the lid, it looks like this. The lid is a magnet type, and the inside has a three-layer structure with partitions and pockets.



I put books and notebooks in each layer.



The innermost layer is completely separated from the front, making it a blindfold for things that you don't want to see too much. Also, there is a pocket on the partition, but the pocket is a little shallow ...



Since you can make steps as shown below, even if you stack items of similar size, it is devised so that the person who put it in the back will not be hidden.



I packed it in various ways.



When you close the lid, it looks like this.



If you put the same contents in the standard flatty, it looks like this.

The standard Flatty also has a pocket inside, but since the pocket is also a transparent material, visibility is higher than Flatty Works. However, there is nothing like a cloth pocket that acts as a blindfold, so it gives a slightly messy impression.



When you close the lid, it looks like this. Flatty Works seems to have plenty of room due to the wide gusset, but Standard Flatty looks a little cramped. However, because the width of the gusset is small, what is inside is firmly held and it becomes difficult to move, so it seems that which one to choose depends on what is inside and how to use it.



It's about this size when you hold it in your hand.



The convenience of Flatty and Flatty Works is that they can be operated even with the smartphone inside. From the movie below, you can see how the iPhone 11 is being touched from the outside of the vinyl.

When I touch the iPhone from outside 'Flatty Works', it looks like this-YouTube


However, please note that the 2nd generation 'iPhone SE' that just appeared had the drawback that the home button was extremely difficult to press.



When you put it in your bag, it looks like this. When you put small things in your bag, you tend to be in a state where small items accumulate at the bottom and you do not know what is where, and you are always looking for something to get what you need. With Flatty Works, you can see the contents of the bag at a glance, so you can check what you have left behind in an instant.



Next, let's take a look at A5 size (horizontal) mocha. The size is 192 x 261 x 35 mm, and the gusset is larger than the standard A5 flatty, so the size looks one size larger.



Looking from the side, it looks like this.



This also has a pocket on the back ...



The inside looks like this, and like the A4 size version, it has a three-layer structure with pockets.



When I put a paperback book, a smartphone, a pen, a business card case, etc., it looks like this. This is also a shallow pocket, so a step is created, and it has a structure that 'you can see what is in it while blindfolding the item appropriately and keeping it neat.'



Try closing the lid like this.



If you put the same contents in the standard flatty, it is a little squeaky.




Depending on the content, even if you put the same thing, there will be a difference in appearance.



When I take the A5 Futty Works in my hand, it looks like this. It's easy to carry like a handbag, and it seems to be convenient for storing necessary items such as passports when traveling.



In addition, A5 size Flatty Works is available in horizontal and vertical types. The vertical navy is shown on the right side below.



The back side looks like this.



The structure is the same as the horizontal type, with a three-layer structure consisting of a partition that completely hides what you put in and a pocket attached to the partition.



I put the same contents as I put in the horizontal A5 size Flatty Works. The upper part of the pocket is higher than the horizontal type.



Anyway, the point of the vertical type is that the contents can be taken out smoothly when put in a rucksack.



Even smaller, card-sized Flatty Works looks like this. The size is 85 x 115 x 35 mm.



It's small, but it has a pocket on the back.



This is also the same structure as other Flatty Works, with pockets and dividers. Since the gusset is wide, it seems to be convenient for putting cosmetic bottles etc. when traveling.



Also, a new vertical type has appeared in the standard Flatty, so I also took a look at this. The left is A4 size lavender and the right is A5 size red.



It is a common structure that there is a pocket on the back side.



Both have a narrow gusset of 20 mm.



The vertical flatty has a structure with no pockets inside for both A4 and A5 sizes. When I put various things inside, it looks like this.



I put it in my bag. If you put too small things in it, it will accumulate at the bottom and become messy, and it may be a little difficult to see depending on the shape of the bag. It seemed to be suitable for people who carry large documents and tablets.
