DirtBags have launched on Kickstarter - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/forthetrail/dirtbags-reusable-compostable-zip-bags-for-adventures

A project by @ForTheTrail

Your support would mean the world!!!

Do you use single-use energy gels, powder sachets or plastic ziploc bags for your adventures, races, big days out in the mountains and ultra-marathons?

DirtBags are the first, ultralight, reusable and home-compostable zip bags designed to organise and carry your fuel and essential items for long days out on the trail.

I have been working on prototypes to replace single-use energy gels and plastic ziploc bags whilst still giving you the convenience of portion control with gels/powders and the option to carry small essentials, mandatory gear and spare kit in the larger DirtBags.

You use them on an adventure, wash them and then reuse, again and again.

DirtBags have been created to stop a linear waste model, especially when single use plastics are used in sports and hobbies based on nature, this doesn't make sense.

Instead, we should be focusing on circular life cycles and a reduction in the demands on the planet.

The turning point on yesterdays 2 hour trail run on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, just a lovely couple of hours with Otter.

Spent 30 minutes filming to add to a video talking about this years releases as well as some non-documentary projects i've been working, in some cases, for over 2 years.

They won't be merch or products that you might think, these are brand new innovative creations made specifically for trail and ultra runners and they ask less of the world and question whether the industry is doing enough #forthetrail

Super excited and nervous at the same time and more updates about these coming out in the next week leading up to the video release were I explain more.
