I've been using this pouch for about seven years. Previously, I had three from other companies and decided to try something new. A big advantage is its capacity. The hidden pocket next to the body is very convenient and fits quite a few small items. The main compartment is excellently organised – the organiser allows you to keep things tidy, and the removable, Velcro-fastened tool compartment is particularly practical. Finally, the multitool and penknife have their own place. The zipped mesh in the main compartment is also useful, although it is a bit tight. The front pocket works great for the most essential items. I also rate the quality of the zips highly – they are very sturdy and noticeable. The downside (although for some it might be a plus) is that it opens widely – because of this, when I pull out, for example, tissues and have a heavy phone next to them, the phone might fall out. Fortunately, it's well secured. I really like the option of easily attaching your own belt – then I don't need several different belts and can have everything together on one. I work with dogs, so the Molly system allows me to attach a treat pouch without unnecessary hassle. Plus for the Velcro at the front – I can personalise the pouch without piercing the material. And finally – the colour is great, perfect!
