Kleider machen Leute – Taschen auch!

Clothes make the man – and so do bags!

"Clothes Make the Man" is a novella by the Swiss poet Gottfried Keller.

It is one of the best-known stories in German-language literature and tells the story of the tailor Wenzel Strapinski, who, despite his poverty, is well-dressed. In a strange city, he is mistaken for a count because of his appearance… and at the end of the story, Strapinski achieves wealth.

As is so often the case, there's a lot of truth in this story. Our appearance is part of our body language and represents an aspect of our nonverbal communication. And that includes clothing and accessories.

Many of you are aware of this and naturally adjust your jobs and projects accordingly. You dress differently for a graphic recording session in a bank than for a leisure activity with teenagers.


These two ladies look super cool, don't they? They have something in common in these pictures. Take a closer look:

Well, did you notice it?

They're both wearing our new BagUp . With it, you can show up at any graphic recording gig or as a facilitator anytime.

The BagUp is the elegant leather shoulder or belt bag for professional trainers, graphic recorders, or (visual) facilitators (but certainly also for anyone who simply finds it chic). With two different shoulder straps and a belt loop, it goes with any outfit, and you're sure to have your favorite colors with you.

With this high-quality shoulder bag, your markers and other work materials are always within easy reach. Made of elegant leather, the BagUp offers a surprising amount of storage space, perfect for business cards, key cards, or similar items. It's also particularly useful if you need to carry your (wireless) microphone accessories during a presentation. You can discreetly tuck this small black box away in your bag without ruining your outfit or interfering with your equipment.

So, start thinking about Christmas now – the BagUp will make the hearts of visualizers beat faster.
