    Helikon-Tex Bandicoot Waist Bag - Black. Having already owned the smaller model, I decided to buy this version as well. No complaints – very good quality at a reasonable price. There's nothing to think about, it's worth buying right away.

    Very solid workmanship. The material, zippers, and clasp are flawless. The pouch is quite spacious, maybe even a bit too big for everyday use, but it will work great for trips. I appreciate the Velcro organizer and the numerous smaller pockets. I definitely recommend it.

    I own many different waist bags, but the one from Helikon definitely stands out from the rest. It sits very well on the hips, has a medium capacity that’s sufficient for the essentials, is easy to conceal, and the material is durable and sturdy. I definitely recommend it—it's one of the best hip pouches.

    A large, very spacious waist bag with a practical Velcro organizer that can be easily removed. Made from Cordura, which makes it exceptionally durable. The deep black color looks really attractive.

    The small Possum pouch (purchased in coyote color) fully matches the description; it's a well-made product, constructed from solid materials and components, well-designed, and perfectly assembled. It exudes durability, I'm sure it will last a long time! The color is identical to the photos on the website. Regarding size, its compactness is surprising while still offering enough capacity. For those who (like me) are looking for a lightweight waist bag to carry just the essentials, which you can forget about during activity. For those who need to carry more, there are more spacious models that will be better suited. The quality of Helikon-Tex is impeccable and worth much more than the Military price.

    It's worth buying for 85 PLN on sale, there's no reason to hesitate. I bought it at the regular price and I'm very satisfied. It's spacious, yet sleek and discreet. It works great during activities, running, etc.

    Carefully designed product, comfortable to wear, although I prefer the larger version – Bandicoot, which seems to have the optimal capacity-to-size ratio. For this price, it's hard to find anything that can compete with Helikon products. I definitely recommend it.

    The project is well planned, but I don't think this waist bag can compete with models costing over 400 PLN. However, at this price, it's really a solid choice. In my opinion, it's the best waist bag you can get for about 100 PLN.

    Great, spacious waist bag that is also exceptionally sturdy. It proves to be a practical and well-organized gadget for everyday use. The strap can be easily adjusted to fit your body shape. I definitely recommend it.

    The materials and workmanship are of a very high standard. At this price, and even higher, it's hard to find anything better. The bag is extremely spacious for its size. I didn't expect to like the belt loop so much – when I don't want to wear it traditionally, I thread the belt through it (which shortens it considerably), so I can hold it comfortably in my hand without anything dangling or getting in the way. The compartments and the MOLLE system are great – finally, everything is well organized in the waist bag.

    The waist bag, also known as a fanny pack, is made of durable Cordura fabric. It features several zippered pockets and a sturdy buckle. Its capacity is as much as 2.7 liters. I think it’s hard to find a better choice at this price and I highly recommend it.

    I bought this waist bag for the holidays because after many years of using the smaller version (Possum) in Wildwood color, I simply got bored with it. The new model is much bigger, and the MulticamBlack color looks more elegant and universal than Pencott Wildwood, so it will match various outfits. The large version also offers a more advanced organizer with Velcro, which is great because it helps keep everything perfectly organized. Although the dimensions differ by just a few centimeters, the product is really spacious. I recommend it—I hope it will be as durable as the previous one, which served me daily for 10 years.

    Despite its small size, it's very roomy. The quality of workmanship and materials used are top-notch – real Cordura and solid Woojin elements. I really like the pass-through on the back, which lets you tuck away the strap and carry it by hand, and if needed, you can easily pull the strap out to wear it on your hips without having to detach it or take up space inside. This is already my second one – I use the RAL 7013 model for EDC, and I got the Shadow Grey version for Osmo Pocket 3 equipment (works great). My only note is that the Shadow Grey color looks different in real life than in the photos – it’s more of a dark graphite with a hint of green and blue. Still, I’m not changing my rating, because I actually like this color a lot – even more than in the pictures. However, someone who expects the shade to look exactly like the photos might be surprised.

    Very good waist bag, the advantages are: organizer, loop for a lanyard, internal mesh pocket, strap with the right width which can be threaded through a belt loop. I recommend waiting for a promotion and buying it for less than 100 PLN.

    The waist bag performs its role well – it is spacious and functional. The material seems durable, and the pockets are convenient to use. I wear it every day and so far I am satisfied.
