GEAR AID HEROCLIP Carabiner Gear Clip and Hook (Mini) for Travel

The HeroClip is one of those clever little tools that quickly becomes indispensable. It’s a hybrid carabiner and hook that swivels 360°, making it incredibly versatile for everyday use. Whether I’m hanging my bag off a café table, organizing gear in the car, or keeping my toiletry kit off a damp bathroom counter, the HeroClip handles it all with ease.What I love most is how compact and lightweight it is, yet it supports a surprising amount of weight, depending on the size. The rubber tip on the hook adds extra grip, and the swivel mechanism feels smooth and secure. It’s available in multiple sizes and colors, so you can pick one that fits your needs and style. I love the mini for everyday use.It’s a bit pricier than a standard carabiner, but the added functionality makes it well worth it. If you’re someone who values smart design and practical solutions, the HeroClip is a game-changer. You won’t regret buying this!

I bought several of these well-made and sturdy clips in 3 sizes. and I highly recommend them.TINY - Probably most useful to hang a bag on a relatively small-diameter stroller handle or bar -- but the hook opening might be too small to hang a bag securely from some table tops. If a table top is less than 1" thick it should work OK.The item I received is still a bit stiff to open or twist; maybe further use will loosen it a bit.Overall height: 2.25". Hook opening: ~1". Rated to hang up to 40 lbs.SMALL - Works very well for restaurant tables, the top of a room door, a clothes bar, etc.I bought 3 of this size; no problems opening or adjusting them. They clip easily on a backpack, computer bag, etc. Perfect for my use and for gifts.Overall height: 3". Hook opening is ~1.5". Rated to hang up to 50 lbs.MEDIUM - I haven’t used it yet but I bought it for a larger bag (medium-large dufflel).Overall height: 3.75" Hook opening is ~1.75". Rated to hang up to 60 lbs.NOTES -1. The opening measurements above are NOT for the silver, spring-loaded "gate" on the hook -- i.e., the part that's used to secure the carabiner part onto a bag handle or ring. The opening measurements given are for the part that is used to hook (or grab) onto a table top, door top, horizontal bar, etc., once the hook is extended from the carabiner part.This is important because the hook (when extended) has a semi-circular opening. To use it on a restaurant table, for example, ideally the hook opening needs to be able to go over AND under the table's edge, at least by a small amount, so that the bag’s weight is mostly directly under the hook. In my tests the small and medium size hooks worked great for table tops (even >1" thick), standard door tops, shower curtain rod, etc. On the other hand, the tiny size hook slid off a 1.5" table top when holding a light purse because the hanging force on the hook was in an slight offset direction – and even after some careful adjustments the hook’s contact tip with the table top was only about a quarter inch from the edge (and easy to nudge off it).Hence you might want to get the largest size for your prospective uses.2. This is just a little suggestion about opening and closing the hook, not a criticism: The instructions that came with the hook might not be clear to everyone. (They weren’t for me at first.)To open and extend the hook: You have to first hold open the silver gate to be able to rotate the hook part sideways (i.e., not upward) a bit away from the carabiner part. Once away from its stored position it can then be unfolded upward (and around, even to ~270 degrees) and optionally rotated on its other axis to suit your needs. Very flexible in terms of configuration.To close the hook to store it on the carabiner part: You have to keep it slightly offset (i.e., not in the same plane as the carabiner) when folding it back to its original configuration, or you won't be able to fold it fully. Then hold open the silver gate a bit while rotating the hook back into its snug storage place, Then release the gate to secure the hook in place.This is easier to do than describe. You'll see this more clearly if you pay close attention the first time you open the hook and then close it again once or twice.

The Gear Aid Hero Clip carabiner is a fantastic addition to my outdoor and travel gear! It's incredibly versatile and easy to use. I love how it can be clipped onto my backpack, keeping my essentials within reach. The design is sturdy yet lightweight, making it perfect for hiking, camping, and travel. Plus, the ability to hang it almost anywhere is a game-changer.Overall, I highly recommend the Hero Clip for anyone looking to simplify their travel and outdoor adventures.

I purchased these for my handbag so I don't put it on the floor when I'm at restaurants. Unfortunately it was too small for the thick table tops that some restaurants have. So I purchased one size up and that seems to work better, I added the smaller to my backpack to hang additional items. The product is well made and very sturdy. A little over priced but it's such good quality it makes up for. It has many uses I'm pleased with it. The only negative is you have to maneuver it to fit on small D rings first you open swing the outside and fit just the inside then you rotate the outside to close it. A few extra steps that's why I gave it 4 stars

I love these clips. I’d been using a small size one for a couple years now. Finally got around to buying another one, and this time I went with the mini size. It may seem gimmicky but they really are valuable when you least expect it. I use them to hang bags in vehicles or even off the edge of restaurant tables or off the back of a chair. I’ve had to use it to hang my backpack in an airport bathroom. As an everyday carry item, I like to use these on whatever bag I’m using that day, typically a crossbody sling.

This mini size is awesome. Versatile and well made. Perfect for EDC.

My favorite clip bag. Easy to use , works great

The media could not be loaded. I will update this more as I go. And when I say "as I go" I literally mean it as I go!If there was a product for everyone this has to be one product I feel like everyone can use. Do the appropriate research though cause I do believe there is a matter of one size does not fit all. For sizing, it's like the Goldilocks and the Three bears. I have bought the mini and the large yet both are underwhelming and overwhelming. The large is definitely to big for a backpack but I will support the weight of everything I carry. The mini is too small for my heavy jacket but is appropriate for my Every Day Carry sling bag but not my backpack carrying my laptop and other essentials.Now I will say if I read more into the description or title on the products cause they point out the suggested use I would definitely had the appropriate size. Other than that they work! Sturdy strong and efficient! It's worth mentioning getting them if you would like to keep anything off a contaminated floor. To keep away from throwing out my back just by hanging the things I need to carry onto a ledge or so. More to come!
