The best windblocker for your
car |
Description
These are quality satchels; both the material and craftsmanship are high-end. These are not lower-end products made in some third world sweatshop. Rather, these are made locally with quality materials, tight stitching, heavy duty zipper, and nylon thread.

Do you need a satchel?
Short answer: Probably. By the way, in case you suspect it, I'm not pushing the
satchel for the increased business. For me, the satchels are a break-even
deal. My seamstress is the one who makes the money from them, not me!)
The satchel protects
the windblocker from scratching and abrasion for the few times per year you take
it out of your car and want to store it or set it aside. If you're going
to leave the windblocker in your call all of the time, then you don't need
one. If you're going to take the windblocker out of the car, even
occasionally such as when cleaning your car, then I'd get one.
What Type of Satchel: Cloth or Vinyl?
Short answer: Functionally equivalent, but the vinyl is nicer. Both satchels will do the same job and last the lifetime of the windblocker. The vinyl is a nicer material, and has a softer fleece liner, so it's a higher quality item. If you're tight on cash, get the cloth satchel; else, the vinyl is a nice upgrade for an extra $6.
