Hands-Free Bag Holder - Charcoal w/ Black Trim

Our patented product is a hands-free solution for pedestrians and commuters who carry several bags. INY® enables balance in an urban environment.

• It will keep your bags from slipping off your shoulders, free your hands to hold other things, and help you stand up with your shoulders level and balanced.
• INY® disperses the bag weight across your shoulders and sends that weight downward, through your body, into your feet and into the ground.
• INY® allows your bags to tuck comfortably under your arms, close to your body while taking very little extra space, which is especially helpful on public transport.
• INY® positions your bags by your side so you can easily reach in to retrieve items without having to remove the bag from your shoulder. Additionally you will have control and a better view of your bags which provides an added security level.

In ancient times, and even now in some parts of the world, people use a pole placed across their back and put items on each end of the pole to make carrying easier. The Merriman-Webster dictionary defines a yoke as "a frame fitted to a person's shoulders to carry a load in two equal portions." Kathleen Ullmann, the creator of INY®, modified this efficient but cumbersome product. Our product helps you feel less burdened because there is no need to use your hands to hold or adjust bags. By distributing the weight on both shoulders, you will feel more centered leading to a sense of liberation as you trudge the urban terrain.

An active city-dweller created this innovative product to improve commuting and shopping for urbanites. Our customers span a broad demographic and use INY® in various ways when traveling by foot, on public transportation, in airports, and while shopping. The main benefit is to have a comfortable, hands-free experience when carrying two or more bags.

To ensure the safety and quality of this product, Kathleen Ullmann’s company, The Point of Health, Inc. engaged the services of an independent testing laboratory before offering it to the marketplace. Such testing included vigorous static load testing of IT’S NO YOKE® and enables us to indicate that each end of the flexible pole can bear a load of 7.5 lbs. For optimum use, distribute weight as evenly as possible.

The product is a little longer than a ruler and is as thin as a slice of bread: 16" long, 4" wide, and ½" high. When folded, it easily fits in your bag. INY® weighs just under 3 ounces.

You need at least one bag on each shoulder in order to stabilize the yoke across your shoulders. It is intended for use with two (or more) bags.

INY® works best with bag straps that fit over your arm onto your shoulder as it will keep straps anchored there. Our newest product is a Handle Extender for the Yoke, HEY. It is an accessory to convert short-handled bags into longer-length handles when using INY®.

We carefully chose materials for the base and channel that are durable and easy to clean. The 100% cotton fabric base is strong and easily hand washable. After extensive use, you will need to replace the flexible pole, which is easily accessible online and in stores.
