Go Dash Dot - The Only Bag You'll Ever Need!

GO DASH DOT – THE ONLY BAG YOU’LL EVER NEED

THE PERFECT LIFESTYLE BAG FOR DAY TO NIGHT…

ON THE GO…

New York, NY – January 2019 - Hannah Fastov, the founder, CEO and creative director of Go Dash Dot has always had a flair for fashion, fitness, and living a healthy lifestyle. (www.godashdot.com). While she was living and working in Manhattan for 4 years, Hannah was tired of lugging several bags on the subway to accommodate her needs throughout the day. She carried a purse, gym bag, and briefcase.  Despite her valiant effort to find the perfect bag that served all her needs, she was at a loss. She needed a bag to hold her dirty laundry from the gym, deodorant, shoes, snacks, lap top, wallet and cell phone. AND, she wanted it to be fashion forward. Hence her first design, the Infinity bag was born.

After a rough morning of getting a strap of one of the three bags hanging from her shoulder stuck in the subway turn style, and dropping her lunch onto the floor, she knew it was time to take action. 

The Infinity bag, and all subsequent bag designs, are designed from a survey of active, on-the-go women to ensure the bag truly fits the needs of consumers. All bags include a separate compartment for shoes or yoga mat, and a zipper that can release the bottom panel for a deeper bag when there are no shoes or mat to tote and more room is needed.   The bag also features a snap in-snap out pouch that can double as a cross body bag or belt bag with the additional adjustable strap included with every bag. There is also a detachable, machine washable laundry pouch, padded laptop section, water bottle holder, and lots of interior and exterior pockets. For a quick trip to the store or an evening out after work, the cross body bag is lightweight and attractive, the perfect fashion accessory for the woman on the GO!

IT'S ALL IN THE NAME

We take our name from the language of Morse Code. Morse Code itself is universal and easily translatable, as is any one of our bags. We selected the sequence - - . - - - for our name, which signifies the word GO. To us, the word GO represents moving forward, doing it all, and having it all. The world is ours for the taking, all we need to do is get GOing!
