So I've decided to finally buy an actual pin bag...but I want the biggest since the collection I am planning to put in it will have a lot of pins, and I want them all to fit for now x) So can anyone tell me what the biggest possible pin bag is? Like the sizes in inches of it
 
I know that Captianjacksgirl, has been making her own bags out of luggage Garment bags. If you want maybe ask if she could make one for you. She helped me make one and its Pink and has Alice Patches and 10 pages 12"x10" each. She does a really good job.
 
There are some padded zipping large 3 ring binders in stores like staples. Some are even double sided.

The biggest "standard" bags you will see for pins are not big enough for most "entire collections" but they usually do have 5 pages, both sides useable, average size of pages run about 10x8? I don't know exact measurements off the top of my head. you can fit lots of pins in them.
 
I think the largest bag is like 9 x 12 with 8 - 10 pages. My cast member bag is pretty big.

I'm also gonna start making my own bags :D So much more cost effective then whatever disney sells them for.
 
YES! We were also wondering where to get bigger pin bags. We find that the Disney ones are far too small (and with only 5 pages). Does anyone know where to get bigger ones / more pages? And if people have been making them, can someone post like a how-to? We don't want to keep buying and buying pin bags, so we'd like a fairly good sized one.
 
I found this one on the bay. Search Pin Traders Pro Bag. Here is part of the description:

This is the ultimate bag for pin traders & collectors and is the
largest bag we have available.​
This bag holds approximately 1500 pins.​
Bag Size: 16-1/2" w x 12" h x 4" thick.


​
I have also found it by googling Pin Trader Pro Bag. They are a bit pricey at around $90.​

They came out with a bag quite a while ago that you could put on your back like a backpack or use a strap handle on. We have one and it is the biggest one I know of by Disney. Personally I like the ones that have a pin bag with a large open compartment. The compartment is big enough to put another bag in. This is the backpack one I was talking about.

I remember seeing that one on ebay. But 90$ is too much for a pin bag...haha I'll say that and them go buy a pin for 100$....
 
I have a Pin Pros bag that has 6 pages. It is 17" x 13". It is actually too heavy for me to carry around in the park any more so I downsized. I sewed in a fleece flap on the back to protect the back page because I also put pins on the pocket in there. It is available if anybody is interested please pm me. I also have a slightly smaller version of the same bag 14" x 11" and six pages. It is a little easier to carry but not much. I have went to a disney pirates bag as my primary and then a smaller one to hold the better stuff.
 
hello everyone yes its true i have been making custom pin bags for my self and littlebreadandbutterflies i can not post photos of mine which is 25in wide by 16 in long and 7 in deep with 10 fleece pages clear plastic over each page all pages are secured with rivots i personally did myself i have taken mine to the podm releases and i had my podm in it but everyone noticed the pins more than the bag so if intrested pleases let me know pirces very on cutomization thank you so much if you have a personal email i can send ppics then but i do not know how to post them
