Best Pouch 2024

ORIGINAL POST

I watched the "My Favorite Small EDC Pouches" video and the VERY FIRST POUCH that caught my eye (the Best Canvas Accessories Multicam Pouch V4) - made me purple with bag envy 😁

So envious that I reached out to the maker via their website and purchased the exact pouch - in the exact colorway! (Hexcam wasn't a choice when I initially reached out, but Bryan hooked me up since he said that there was enough material to make a pouch. I told him about your video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsujPu5U5ek) and told him that he's about to get an influx of people wanting that colorway 😁)

The only difference is that I opted for a purple interior to help go with the purple hexcam exterior.

I thought that it was going to be the same size as my Alpaka Utility Pouch (pictured side-by-side in the last picture), but it turns out that the BCA pouch is slightly smaller. Trying to decide what I'm going to carry in this to best take advantage of it (I'll think of something useful).

Thank you for always featuring unique bags from unique makers all over the world!!!

Peak Design Regular Size Tech Pouch Review

Posted by Kevstvm · in r/Nomads_Nation · 5 months ago

Introduction

I recently got my hands on the Peak Design Tech Pouch v2, and it’s easily the best tech pouch I’ve ever owned. Its standout feature is its impressive capacity combined with a sleek design.

Capacity & Design • Spacious Yet Compact: With a 2L capacity, this pouch can store a ton of gear. Despite its generous interior, it doesn’t feel bulky when closed—unlike many other pouches I’ve tried.

Materials & Build Quality • High-Quality Materials: The pouch is constructed from top-notch, durable materials that give it a robust feel. It’s built to withstand splashes, thanks to a coating on the zippers that helps prevent water from seeping inside. • Minor Flaw: I did notice a slight discoloration, but I suspect it’s due to storing the pouch in my TNF Recon backpack, which has a white interior.

Organization & Features • Thoughtful Organization: Multiple compartments with elastic straps make it easy to secure cables and small items, while still providing ample space for larger objects. • User-Friendly Handling: Various handles enhance its usability, especially in backpacks that open from the top. No matter how it’s stored, you can easily pull it out when needed. • Extra Feature: There’s a connection between the interior and the exterior pocket designed to let you place your phone outside while charging it with a powerbank inside. I haven’t found this particularly useful—as I prefer removing the powerbank and using it externally—but it’s a nice bonus to have.

Conclusion

Overall, the Peak Design Tech Pouch v2 feels exceptionally durable and robust. With its excellent capacity and well-thought-out organization, it’s a standout accessory for any tech enthusiast. I give it a 9.5/10.

I like the functionality and design of this pouch; however the material or coating attracts residue and always looks dirty. I have tried washing it and it comes back. Am I the only one that experiences this?

I have three: the ZF, Maxpedition Micro, and a Garage Built. I like all three but found them awkward to carry so I rarely do. Usually just throw them in a bag or leave it in the car. Might get in the mood to carry a pouch again when it gets colder and I can throw it in jacket pockets.

That’s always a thing right? If I see those video’s, what people throw in them, and when I do the same they almost burst and won’t fit in my pocket 😅 The one I’m carrying now is also a bit too thick right now, have to fine tune it a bit, but it looks promising 👍🏻 I like the fact that there’s a layer in between separating the stuff left and right, which is detachable.

Otherwise I would be carrying my ProTech Malibu in MagnaCut or Big Idea Design Lookout or something… Where are you from?

Thanks. I hear ya... I've got a dedicated pouch in the car and if I'm out for a full day or more, I'll usually travel with a small sling bag that has more robust tools and bits, more medical and convenience items, charging gear, etc...

This just lives with my wallet and knife on my tray as something I grab daily and slip into my pocket.

What is your favorite organizer/pouch?

Posted by Narhen · in r/onebag · 6 years ago

I've been struggling with backpacks with a lot of empty space versus backpacks with built in organization. I love the packs with empty space because I want to be able to use that for travelling or trips. But the built in organization is ideal for EDC. So Im thinking of compromising and using an organizer. For reference, I am looking at the CPL24.

I swear I so agree. This is especially better if you travel occasionally. I have bought and played with many pouches in the past, but nothing was more practical than Ziploc bags, and hell they are clear and basically waterproof. The cheapest pouch you could get that makes sense.

Now if you actually need organization for expensive stuff like electronics/travel essentials/camera, I would not recommend Ziploc bags, ofcourse, lol.

Just got my first pouch from them. I'm really happy with it. I couldn't decide between the micro and mini. I ended up picking up the micro and it fits all the loose stuff that was always in my pockets. I was a bit bummed I didn't realize that I could have gotten both sizes on their BOGO deal, but it's fine because I'm still really happy and I can always snag a mini later.

It's easy to say things aren't as good as other peoples work, but self-identifying the individual aspects to me is crucial for improvement (especially as so many people will highlight various things).

In general, this is pretty good, but if you want some feedback on parts I think you could focus on, then I'll be happy to list one or two things.

Recommend a better pouch

I bought this off amazon last year and many of the rings and interior loops have ripped. I would like to find something relatively close to this size but want something made with much better quality components. I would love for it to have a little more rigidity to it, and possibly a removable panel (depends on the design). What should I be looking at?

Have a look at the Maxpedition organizers. They have double thick ones that will reduce the footprint while still carrying the same amount of gear.

They are high quality and hold up well over time. Worth the money over a no-name brand.

Roughly inspired by the excellent Alpaka gear zip-pouch, but much larger, made from inferior bargain store material, and assembled by a complete noob. This was my first attempt at anything like this. I built patterns and a mock-up from plain construction paper. The front pockets for the multi tool are not deep enough and the zipper is too chunky. Should have used a coil zipper. I also wish it were lined.

Fits my minimalist wallet nicely, plus a few house keys, a AAA sized light and a mid-size multi tool. Next time I may sew a 3rd seam in the front pouch for a pocket for a pen.

Next time I'll get it perfect. Next time.

On the pocket side, if you stitched the separator before the horizontal top stitch, you could probably avoid the backstitch right because that would hold the end better? (To avoid the section with the double thick stitch)

My current favorite is from Tactical Tailor: Tactical Tailor Admin Pouch. I wrote this review on the Tactical Tailor Admin Pouch back in 2015 which includes at least one picture of how it looks in the GR1.

I've also used the OP1 from Triple Aught Design which is high quality but not my favorite... it was weird to access it when it was installed.

Edit: I think the GR1 Field Pocket is a great product but it doesn't fit the bill, for me, for Admin usage. It's really one open pocket, one zipper pocket, and one mesh pocket.

I have a GR1 Field Pocket attached to the internal MOLLE on both my GR1 bags and it’s perfect for what I need it for. Usually sunglasses, phone, wallet, some snacks, keys and stuff like that. I have an Echo field pocket as well but my phone does not fit inside so well so I use it occasionally for smaller stuff but keep the GR1 pocket installed full time. Also have a GR2 pocket that I use when I need to take my “on-call” kit with me which has a phone charger (battery) plus wall charger, a small Timbuk2 pouch with pens/pencils/misc stuff, and a set of Bluetooth headphones.

The GR1 pockets are pretty great. I like the padding and that I can attach them to the bags if needed. I got one for both kids and they use them to take snacks on trips and stuff. Just super useful and of course extremely well made.
