Product description
Need a smell-proof case for your glass and gear in El Paso? The Nickel Bags Combo (20″ tall) is a padded duffle tube you can pick up the same day at any of our 10 neighborhood stores. It protects fragile pieces and keeps your kit contained.
Built to protect your breakables
This is a padded drawstring duffle tube, not a flimsy pouch. The 20-inch shell uses a patented Hempster blend, 70% hemp and 30% recycled polyester, so it shrugs off scuffs, fading, and light water. Inside, a heavily padded 100% cotton velour lining cushions glass pipes, breakables, and travel gear. A full-length side zipper opens the whole tube, and an elastic cinch-top drawstring keeps everything snug.
Smell-proof and fresh on the go
The Combo ships with a clear smell-proof poly bag, plus a bonus smaller poly bag on the hang tag. Tuck your herb or gear inside the liner and the padded tube keeps the aroma contained and private, so nothing escapes into your car, bag, or gym locker. It is odor control for freshness and courtesy, plain and simple. The sling strap makes it a grab-and-go travel case.
Three colors, stocked across El Paso
The Combo comes in Black, Brown, and Red, so pick the look you like. This 20-inch size sits above the standard Nickel Bags run of 8″, 10″, 14″, and 18″ tubes, giving you extra room for longer pieces. We keep it on the shelf at all 10 El Paso Smoke Shops locations. Check store stock online, reserve your color, and grab it the same day with a valid 21+ photo ID at the counter.

Questions & Answers
Does the tube keep the smell of what is stored inside from getting out?
It ships with a clear poly liner bag plus a bonus smaller poly bag that seal your contents, and the full-length zipper closes the padded tube over them. The Hempster shell itself is not a carbon barrier, so keep items sealed in the poly liners for the best odor containment.
How does the odor control actually work in this bag?
It relies on the sealed poly liner bags rather than an activated-carbon lining. You place contents inside the included clear poly bag, seal it, and the padded tube zips closed around it. Because there is no charcoal layer, there is nothing you need to reactivate or recharge over time.
Will a water pipe or tall glass piece fit inside the tube?
The single padded compartment is one long tube built for upright glass. Account for the heavy velour padding and the cinch-top, so a piece a bit shorter than the tube fits best with cushioning around it. It holds one piece plus small accessories, not several large pieces at once.
Is the case tough enough to protect glass if the bag gets bumped in transit?
The interior is 100% cotton velour over heavy padding that cushions fragile contents, and the outer Hempster shell of 70% hemp and 30% recycled polyester resists scuffs and abrasion. It guards against knocks and scratches while you carry it, though no padded case makes glass fully drop-proof.
Is the Hempster exterior water-resistant if I set it down outside or get caught in rain?
Yes. The patented Hempster blend is both fade-resistant and water-resistant, so light rain and damp surfaces bead off rather than soaking through quickly. Treat it as water-resistant, not waterproof, so do not submerge it or leave it sitting in standing water for long.
Can I clean the bag once the lining picks up residue or odor?
Spot clean it rather than machine washing. Use a mild detergent with cool water on the Hempster shell and the cotton velour lining, blot the area, then air dry it away from direct heat. The removable poly liner bags can also be wiped down or swapped to keep the inside fresh.
Does the outside look like a plain duffle, or does it signal what is inside?
It reads as a plain padded sling tube with no leaf graphics or loud branding announcing its purpose, so it stays discreet in Black, Brown, or Red. Nothing on the exterior advertises the contents, which is why many guests use it as an everyday gear or camera case too.
How secure is the closure, and does it lock?
It uses a full-length reinforced side zipper plus an adjustable elastic cinch-top drawstring, so contents stay enclosed from two directions. There is no built-in combination or key lock, but the overlapping zip and drawstring keep everything contained and cushioned while you move around with it.
Can I carry it hands-free while traveling?
Yes. It is built as a sling with an adjustable shoulder strap, so you can wear it across your body or over one shoulder and keep your hands free. The strap adjusts to your height and to whether you are wearing it over a jacket or a light shirt.
How do I pick the right length in the Nickel Bags line for my piece?
Match the tube to the height of your glass. This line also comes in 8 in, 10 in, 14 in, and 18 in versions, so measure your piece first and choose a tube slightly taller than it, letting the padding and cinch-top close over the top with room to cushion.
