What it is used for
The Han Pouch is designed as an auxiliary hand pouch for everyday use on film sets, photo shoots or special effects workshops. Its flat profile and transparent panel make it the ideal solution for organising and locating materials without wasting time. Common uses:
- Storing brushes, spatulas and small makeup tools during a shoot
- Carrying the actor's personal effects (documents, phone, accessories) separately and in a controlled way
- Organising tubes, ampoules and quick-replenishment products on set
- Use as an auxiliary pouch alongside a professional makeup trolley to keep essentials always at hand
- Storing small accessories in a prosthetics or special effects workshop
How to use it
- Choose the size based on the volume of material you need to carry: the Small (24×16×2.5 cm) for strictly essential items; the Large (30×16×2.5 cm) if you need more capacity.
- Distribute items taking advantage of the transparent panel — place in that area the items you need to locate immediately.
- Close the fastening properly to make full use of the waterproof resistance of the exterior Cordura®.
- Combine it with a Samas Mua 04 belt bag or a Samas Mua 05 bag to build a complete, modular carrying system.
- For cleaning, wipe the Cordura® exterior with a damp cloth. Do not submerge in water or use solvents on the transparent panel.
Usage tips
Make the most of the transparent panel
Place in the transparent area the items you consult or use most frequently: this way you can identify them without opening the pouch or disrupting the contents. It is especially useful on set, where every second counts.
Flat profile for tight spaces
At just 2.5 cm deep, the Han Pouch fits easily in a trolley drawer, hung from a handle or on top of a makeup table without taking up lateral space. Don't leave it behind even when working in locations with limited space.
Cordura® maintenance
1000-denier Cordura® is tough, but periodic cleaning with a slightly damp cloth keeps it looking good and extends its service life. Avoid folding it sharply over the transparent panel to preserve the integrity of the transparent fabric in the long term.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the small and large size?
The only difference is in length: the Small measures 24 cm long and the Large 30 cm. The height (16 cm) and depth (2.5 cm) are identical in both cases. Choose the Small if you prioritise discretion and lightness, and the Large if you need to carry more items at once.
Is it truly waterproof?
The 1000-denier Cordura® exterior of the Han Pouch is waterproof, protecting it against splashes and the usual damp conditions found on set or in the workshop. It is not designed for submersion in water.
What does handmade in Italy mean?
Samas manufactures its bags by hand in Italy, which means stricter quality control over stitching, fastenings and finishes compared to industrial mass production. That is why they offer a 2-year warranty on the product.
How do I clean the transparent panel?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid solvents, high-concentration alcohol or abrasive products, as these can damage the transparent fabric and reduce its clarity over time.
Can it be combined with other accessories from the same brand?
Yes. The Han Pouch is designed to work as an auxiliary pouch within a modular system. You can complement it with the Trolley Samas MUA 02, the Samas Mua 04 belt bag or the Samas Mua 05 bag to cover all transport needs on a shoot or professional session.
Is it suitable for professional use on set or only for personal use?
It is designed specifically for the professional environment: film and television makeup artists, special effects crews and photographers use it as a quick-access pouch during work. The materials and handcrafted manufacturing are geared towards intensive use.
How long does the warranty last?
The Han Pouch includes a 2-year manufacturer's warranty covering manufacturing defects in stitching, fastenings and materials.
