I’ll admit that I was late to the party on the Heroclip. I’ve been burned by crowd sourcing campaigns before and so I waited until I’d heard enough feedback before trying one. The Heroclip is a gadget that features a carabiner-style clip on one end and a hook with a rubber tip on the other.
It’s fairly compact, even in the medium size, and it attaches to a bag like any other carabiner when not in use.
The rotating swivel is what makes the Heroclip unique; converting it into a hanger with a clip that can hold between 40 to 60 lbs depending on the size of clip.
You’ll see the Heroclip most used in bathroom stalls where you absolutely don’t want to set anything down on the floor if you can avoid it. As a train commuter, I’ll admit that was the use case I had in mind when I purchased it. But, I’ve actually found it to be more versatile than that.
For instance, it can hang off the hydraulic hinge of any automatic door closer ( I realize now I should have hung it off the bottom arm and not the top).
I’ve used to stage my pack at the beginning of a hike by suspending it from my vehicle’s roof rack.
And I no longer have to waste time finding a short branch in the woods to hang my pack from.
I’m still finding creative ways to use this device and as you can imagine, given the weight limit, it can hold more than just a pack. One thing is for sure. It’s quickly become a mainstay in my everyday carry.
The Heroclip comes in three sizes with the following specs:
Medium – 2 oz, 3.75″ x 3″, 60 lbs Capacity
Small – 1.1 oz, 3″ x 2.4″, 50 lbs Capacity
Mini – 0.7 oz, 2.3″ x 1.9″, 40 lbs Capacity
They retail between $19.95 and $14.95 and are available in a variety of colors directly from Heroclip on their website and a variety of other online retailers.
