Overall, the quality of the workmanship is good, but there are a couple of issues with the example I received. The front pocket has a defective stitching, and judging by the dryness of the Cordura coating on the inside and the colour of the folds on the outside, the item is clearly not from a fresh batch. I hope this bag will serve me for a long time.

The bum bag is large, but that's exactly the size I was looking for. I needed a bag where I could fit two phones, a large wallet, a sizeable bunch of house and car keys, a registration certificate, glasses in a case, an Opinel penknife and wireless headphones, especially when I'm wearing jeans without cargo pockets. The Helikon model does its job excellently – everything fits, it's comfortable, and I have everything at hand. I previously tried three different belt pouches, but none of them worked – either there wasn't enough space or they would unfasten on their own. Helikon turned out to be the right choice. The material is very sturdy, as are the zips, buckles and strap. The blue colour looks great – I was worried about it, but unnecessarily, as it's a dark shade. I definitely recommend it.

A very nice and spacious waist bag, and it also looks good. The zips work smoothly and do not get stuck. The material is of good quality, the whole thing is made solidly and with attention to detail. It gives the impression of being durable, I hope it will serve me for a long time.

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!
