If you are the type of person who goes to the grocery store to get a can of Spam and comes back with a dozen eggs, a six pack of Moxie, a loaf of Red Hen Bread, 2 bonus cans of Spam, a pound of sub par coffee, and a small pumpkin, then you need this bag. It’s huge.The Fifth Season Vortex Sack fits in the big Wald 139 basket and or the 139 half racer basket. It’s tall and wide and deep. Also works well for chronic over packers on short tours. It will easily fit a light sleeping bag, small tent, and some food. 

Like all Fifth Season bags, the Vortex Sack is sewn from waxed cotton. The finishing bits are cotton webbing, waxed cotton cordage and made in Vermont wooden toggles. And of course, the bag is sewn in the US. In this case the US means Middlebury Vermont, in a one woman workshop.
