Abstract
A compression system includes first and second channels extending along a first side of a bag. A first end of a first strap is disposed in the first channel and a second end is disposed in the second channel. The first strap has fasteners proximate each of the first channel and the second channel on the first side. Third and fourth channels extend along a second side of the bag. A first end of a second strap is disposed in the third channel and a second end is disposed in the fourth channel on the second side. The second strap has fasteners proximate each of the third channel and the fourth channel on the second side. The first and second straps are configured to compress the bag when portions of the first and second straps are pulled through the fasteners.

A compression system for a bag for carrying objects comprising, in combination:
- a bag having a first side, an opposed second side, a first end, an opposed second end, a bottom and a top;
- a first channel extending along an exterior of the first side of the bag;
- a second channel extending along an exterior of the first side of the bag and spaced from the first channel;
- a first strap having a first end portion disposed in the first channel and a second end portion disposed in the second channel, an end of the first end portion of the first strap secured to the bottom of the bag and an end of the second end portion of the first strap secured to the bottom of the bag;
- a first fastener on the first strap proximate the first channel on the first side;
- a second fastener on the first strap proximate the second channel on the first side;
- a third channel extending along the exterior of the second side of the bag;
- a fourth channel extending along the exterior of the second side of the bag and spaced from the third channel;
- a second strap having a first end portion disposed in the third channel on the second side and a second end portion disposed in the fourth channel on the second side, an end of the first end portion of the second strap secured to the bottom of the bag and an end of the second portion of the second strap secured to the bottom of the bag;
- a third fastener on the second strap proximate the third channel;
- and
- a fourth fastener on the second strap proximate the fourth channel;
- wherein the first and second straps are configured to compress the bag when a portion of the first and second end portions of the first and second straps are pulled through the fasteners.
