- Quikflip is a hoodie that converts into a drawstring backpack, as seen on Shark Tank. Today I decided to try out the "Hero Hoodie" model myself.

#quikflip #hoodie #sharktank
That intro synced up ridiculously well. Nice work!
It took a few tries to get it right!
Whoever does your editing is doing a bang up job
Honestly, just having a hoodie that I can carry as a backpack when I’m not wearing it is worth the price. I hate having to carry my hoodie in my hands or around my waist
Dude, that opening was the sickest shit. You are the most trustworthy, down to earth reviewer. Me and my fiance bought a purple mattress on your recommendation and it was the greatest purchase. Live on, handsome review man.
Much appreciate Steven!
@@BrainScramblies 😂
I bought the countertop dishwasher based on James review-and I love it!
Same! We love our purple mattress and wouldn't have even looked at it in the store if it weren't for this chanel
You impress too easily. Cloning is one of the oldest effects in cinematography.
It's a cool concept and you really can only put small items that already fit in your pocket because if you suddenly need it to become a hoodie again, you have to carry the items you put in there. But cool way to store the hoodie when you don't want to carry it around folded.
I think it's perfect for music festivals, because you don't bring too much and if you get a little chilly you can flip it out
@@ThePeacePlant exactly
theres still a pocket along ur back when u wear it u can prob leave small things in there
I’m wondering were you leave you’re extra stuff that you put in te backpack when you use it as a hoodie.
I was thinking the exact same thing.... Maybe only use it as an "either/or", ie don't plan on switching it's use halfway thru.
Lol good point but maybe it’s just meant so you don’t have to carry or tie around your waist.
They are called hands they are pretty cheap most places
Don't carry more in the backpack than what can fit in your pockets/ pockets of the hoodie.
This was my question also.
You should wear it onto the plane as a hoodie, and take a carry-on and a personal item. Then convert it to a backpack before you walk off, and watch them squirm at the fact that you got a carry-on and _two_ personal items on the plane somehow
I found that if I take a travel pillow case and fold up a small blanket into it I can stuff the pillow case with stuff and sneak a 2nd carry on since you're allowed a "pillow"
I think it's great, when it's cold in the morning and it becomes warmer throughout the day you can take it off and wear it as a backpack
What if your really cold and need to put on the sweater, but you have a lot of stuff in the backpack already?
@@emil9718 Just bring along a plastic grocery bag to put the items in when you need to convert it back into a hoodie.
@@emil9718 it's actually a hoodie-backpack, not a backpack-hoodie, so it has a little bit different use (i mean that main thing about it is a hoodie, not a backpack). It's also pretty good when you are going somewhere like a shopping center or something like that and you know it's pretty warm there, so you'll need to get it off and do something with it - you can just wear it as a backpack and forget about it, maybe even put some stuff that you bought in there (in a bag, of course, since you'll need to get it off later when you wanna wear hoodie)
@@88Timur88Bahmudov88 I guess normally we would just tie that around our waist...
@@ladylindakaye1 Yeah, that's what the guy would do on Survivorman
This would actually be pretty good for travel. You could throw your frequently used items in it and when you get to a hotel or something, take them all out and you'll ha e a hoodie for the trip. There's pretty limited uses but some of them are pretty cool.
Alternatively, you could have a draw string bag that could easily fit in your pocket. If it’s too warm, you can tie the hoodie around your waist. At no time do you need to worry about taking thing in and out of the bag. Also, it would be cheaper.
@@annelevin1935 Tying the hoodie around your waist is EXACTLY the problem people are trying to avoid..way to miss the point! 🙄On the waist they slide, they fall, they're bulky, and things can fall out of the pockets. I have four of these hoodies and I can never go back to "regular" sweatshirts.
I have been using my Quikflip for over a year and a half. It is by far my favorite hood. Excellent product that works exactly as advertised. Oh and you do NOT have to turn it inside out to convert it. You just take it off and reach in the pocket and pull it through. So easy and well designed.
That editing was fire!
Indeed! I thought it would only be the thumbnail. 🔥🔥
Yeah, that was pretty skilful.
Obvious con: when you put stuff in the backpack, you don’t have a hoodie anymore. I like to have a hoodie in my backpack instead 🤣
Yup, I feel like you get half of use from this item, instead of double use.
My thought the whole time. Leave the house with a backpack and then it gets colder than expected and you NEED your hoodie....what are you going to do with all the stuff in the bag?
@@harcormor Put a small bakpack inside the bakpack then
@@harcormor ideally you would be smart and have another bag or only have in there a few items you can transfer to your pockets.
@@crystald3655 that obviously doesn’t make any sense...So I have to carry a hoodie inside of a bag with another bag....OR just carry one bag with a hoodie in it for if I need it...this product couldn’t be anymore pointless in my eyes. But that’s just me and my opinion, not throwing any hate at all and I wouldn’t judge anyone for using it. They just won’t be getting my money.
James, has anyone told you your modest demeanour makes you such a cool dude? Keep up the good content!
Dang, i remember when this channel only had 30k subscribers, and i was so surprised how underrated it was. Same awesome content
I never knew that james was that good at editing
I'm not... it's only good if you don't look too closely :)
This sounds perfect for me when I visit Vegas. I can use it as a backpack during the day and then a jacket in the evening.
OK, that intro alone deserves a thumbs up. 👍
You know it's a good product when you have to really think about negative feedback. Great review.
I think the point of this item is to store your hoody and maybe stuff you had in your pockets. I don’t think the backpack is for taking extra stuff. It’s just for the hoody so you don’t have to carry it if you get warm.
Exactly, people are really misunderstanding, it's not for carrying textbooks
I'm in love with that breeze that was blowing in your back yard ☺️. That back pack made you look like you was ready for school.
This would be great for camping or hiking. The water you have is a good choice, imo.
Stumbled onto the chill-o-matic last summer and have gone down the freakin’ reviews rabbit hole ever since. love the vids. Great delivery, great humor. Thanks for the channel...
Love LOVE the quality of your videos. Editing, reviewing, set - everything is perfect. Love your channel
yes... i will buy this to dodge cops when they are looking for a guy with a hoodie ...while im have a backpack with a t shirt
Great review! Always looking forward to these!
Been watching you for a long time. I love the evolution of your channel through the years!!
I'm really glad it worked! I can see this being useful for warm day/cool nights, bringing snacks but will definitely finish the snacks before evening kind of trips!
I love the new editing tricks! Looks GREAT!
James, I live here in Southern California, and all of your summer videos need to arrive soon, I can relate very much to every time you mention those high temps.
They are coming soon!
I like how you separate the practical from the harebrained.
Nice product; my concern is putting heavier items in the backpack will result in stretching out your jacket.
I've got one. I love it. It's incredibly well made, which I appreciate. Maybe a bit steep in price, but it's been worth the cost in my opinion.
Looks good! Thanks for the honest review!
Another great video! Hope your shoulder feels better soon. The jacket/bag looks good on you- safe travels. 😉
The video quality just keeps getting better and better! Hey James, keep up the great work.
PS: would love another mail time!
Makes my morning every time you upload, thank you!
1:38 Rockin' the "Unabomber" look. Also, on the Amazon page, they have a video showing off the conversion. They guy showing it off doesn't pull the hoodie inside out before converting it to a backpack.
Yeah, no need to flip it inside out: www.quikflipapparel.com/pages/support-how-to-flip
The idea, and how it's made is kinda dope!
Your editing for the videos has been awesome lately
Thank you for always uploading great and frequent content you have been such a blessing 🙏 I hope you have a great week
It's nice to see you get genuinely excited for a product! I wouldn't be surprised if you were jaded after trying so many products that are misses.
I love this hoodie!!!!! Owned it for years!
Always love your videos great work awesome thanks for all the help deciding on buying some of this stuff 👍😃
Love this! Great idea!
First time I saw that duplicate edit on your videos. Well done, great video. I always enjoy watching your reviews 🙌🏻
This is one of the few ASOT type items I'd consider buying. Even at $55, if it's well-made then I'm good with that. I've seen t-shirts even back in the 90s that sold for $70+, so... yeah.
Go for a hike or something in the morning and it's chilly. Wear it with your waters, phone, etc in your pockets, and then when it and/or you warm up then you can carry it on your back with the same stuff in it. No need to tie it around your waist or anything like that.
At the same time, I have a backpack/cooler combo that allows me to carry ice, drinks, sandwiches, etc, and all that and when I shed my fleece I can stick it in an outside storage area as well as my phone, charger/battery packs, etc.
Bottom line: I'll stick with what I have as it's been working for 10+ years and still holding up, but I can definitely see a use for this.
Oh wow, that intro was quite nice. Love the new video edits. It's lit 🔥
Pretty good idea. Whenever I go on a plane I have to worry about fitting my hoodie in to my luggage. With this I could use it as a laptop bag and then a hoodie when I arrive.
Looks handy, and could also serve as a sort of pillow when travelling, especially with a couple of other clothes items stuffed in there.
I used to have a windbreaker that converted from a fanny pack/small bag back in the 80s when I was a kid. It worked well and was easy to transport.
Awesome product. Practical, functional and versatile. Got a thumbs up from me. Good job.😌👍
I love my Quikflip pull over! It's great!
That intro was legit. I love your videos.
Loved seeing two of you James haha
Definitely getting this! Amazing thank you!
It bothers me that "tactical green" is actually grey, lol!
Edit: Nevermind, when it was brought indoors for the backback demonstration, I could then see it was a slight green :)
It is an army/forest green: www.quikflipapparel.com/collections/unisex-hero-hoodie-classic/products/hero-hoodie-classic-tactical-green
"There's a golf course over there? Huh." - Has nothing to do with the review, but I'm glad it was included - Gave me a laugh.
Thanks. This will make a great Christmas present.
love the intro, great review like always too
Man its great seeing your channel grow. Been here since around 40k and the wife and i still make purchases based on ur unbiased reviews no questions asked lol. Stay honest thank u
very impressed with the intro. Your getting really good at editing and production👍
This looks like pretty kool product...will defiantly consider buying this.
One Con I can think of is when you have a bag full of stuff and it gets cold. You would need a second bag stored in the first bag for something like that. Packable duffles could work well. But do you need both?
That is a valid concern.
@@Freakinreviews You don't always want to carry a backpack. Think of this as a hoodie that you don't have to tie around your waist, instead of a backpack that converts into a hoodie.
Now that was an intro. Glad to see the twins/alter egos back lmao
Very well done review!👍
I bought the hoodie lite one, not the classic, pretty recently, and it was a very good purchase. Wearing it like a normal hoodie or drawstring backpack is fine, but then sometimes you come into the issue of needing both the hoodie and the backpack at the same time. So, I also bring a separate drawstring backpack when I wear this. The backpack is durable but very thin and can easily fit inside the quikflip in backpack form, without taking so much space so you can still put all your other stuff inside.
I love your videos. Can't wait for others. I always check you out before I buy products
Howdy Mr. White! It's been so awesome to watch you review the quik flip. I commend you sir on your camera work because that was pretty terrific as well. I do have a quick flip & almost returned it. It doesn't work great when you're at 7000 ft elevation with 25 mph winds. The good news is, I found out I'm moving back to VA yet sadly leaving AZ behind. The better news, I can keep this convertible marvel & take it fishing with me because it does turn into a backpack! LOL
I'm now waiting on your review of moving boxes & which will be the most durable since I have the Extraordinary Eight coming with me. Plus all of their food, treats, toys, crates Etc. I look forward to what you have to say + any advice you have to give. Please give Bailey & the kitty a love rub from my fur babies to your fur babies. We are all looking forward to your next review.👍
Perfect for amusement parks. Use it as a hoodie when you go through security so you don't have to do bag checks. Once inside convert it to a backpack to hold your stuff. If it gets chilly later convert it back to a hoodie.
Then where does your stuff go?
@@joshuaewalker The pockets of the hoodie.
Great intro! Nice honest review. I may get one. Agree it should be about $40.
I had a windbreaker that converted to a fanny pack in elementary school, but it wasn’t intended to hold anything else. I like this idea!
That intro was pretty smooth, loved it
Now that's a product that is truly useful!! I would buy it!
Do it! You won't regret it: www.quikflipapparel.com/
This will be great for when it is hot in the day but chilly at night. Plus there’s gotta be a way for us that are handy with a sewing machine that can make this with our favorite hoodies already.
This will become your favorite hoodi!
Am I seeing double! 😂 Very nice editing my friend
The way you explained it made it easier for me to figure it out
Thanks , I've never even considered wrapping a gift in a walmart hoodie...That's GENIUS!! Living in a coastal town on L Michigan , it's almost always important to have a sweat shirt or hoodie near the coast (with in 5 blocks or so) but suddenly it's way too warm 6-7 blocks out that's a nice idea rather than taking off the hoodie and having to carry it.
Thanks for the video mate. I might get one now👍
I can think of one really good use case: It's a little below a comfortable temperature for a walk/run, so you wear the jacket. Then as you get warmed up you need to take your jacket off. Instead of going back to the car or wrapping the jacket around your waist you can carry it on your back. Admittedly a bit niche but I'd find it useful there.
I've had one for a month now. Was great while on vacation
I think having two would be Ideal. Extra hoodie for your friend and a bag!
I bought one shortly after seeing it on Shark Tank and I love it!!! Great idea. Great product
That was really cool how you did the entrance
I've seen the ads for this. It's not my kinda thing, more of a edc backpack guy, but it seems well made, easy to use, and convenient for weather changes or the off chance you'll need to carry a few things.
I agree, other than the $, it's a pretty good product.
I've been waiting for this!
This reminds me of my old beach towel that converted into a bag!
I see it as a hoodie in the morning and back pack in the afternoon . With a bonus option to accumulate things as your out. But mostly so as your not stuck carrying it though out the day. Probably great for out walking, jogging or hiking.
saw this ad on YT about that hoodie not gonna cap it’s a great idea 😂
I guess my question is when would you need this? If it's cold and you need to carry stuff you have to sacrifice warmth, and if you're carrying stuff you need to be able to drop that stuff off to get your hoody back. With the wasted space in bag mode you might as well have a dedicated bag with a dedicated hoody inside of it and enjoy the benefits of having both simultaneously.
I subscribed because you're straightforward about all of it.
I bought one for my son for Christmas last year. They’re pretty cool.
I’m a sucker for cozy items, and for items that double as storage. Of course I had to buy one.
Zippers on the pockets and maybe one of those big pockets with a zipper on the back like on some running wind breakers would be a great way of organizing stuff in it when in hoodie AND in backpack mode
Loved the intro! hahahaha
Get well soon, cause that can be hurtful that kind of injury!
This was made for movie theaters. Sneak in snacks in the backpack, and wear the hoodie inside the chilly theater.
Seems like a well made hooded sweatshirt, that's a big plus. I'm not really sold in the drawstring backpack conversion though. As an alternate way to carry a hoodie around it's a neat idea, but as a true backpack it does not seem practical.
Anything one might put in the backpack suddenly needs to be carried by hand once you have switched back to a hoodie, so we can't truly use the backpack mode as a backpack. And drawstrings are not a good option for carrying much of anything in a backpack, over time the drawstrings will dig into your shoulders and the more you need to carry the quicker that will happen.
I like it, I might pick one up.
Seems pretty cool! 55 is steep! Around that price, you can start getting pretty nice bags. Two birds, one stone though!!
One issue I see is that. if you had it in bag mode full of stuff, but then wanted a jacket. You can't really use the jacket without sacrificing your bag, meaning you need another way to carry your stuff.
Tentacle green 🤔
Genius product idea, hoodie in the morning, backpack afternoon. No more tying the sleeves around your waist
