The bag is a Ricardo carry-on that came with a set. I paid $27 for it 3 or 4 years ago. It lists 1500 cubic inches and is like a smal duffel bag. With what I’m carrying it’s about 3/4 full. I bought an Op- Tech strap for $14 ( I did not want to spend more for the strap then I did for the bag). — Forest
