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.

It looks great. It gives the impression of being good quality, time will tell how long it lasts (I hope for a long time). The number of compartments suits me perfectly. The size is ideal for me, and the zippers work without any problems.

Great waist bag. I was able to fit everything I needed: wallet, phone, knife, pepper spray, flashlight, tactical cards, powerbank, headphones, and a few other things. Very solidly made, with a well-thought-out design. It is really comfortable and handy.

A practical and handy waist bag works perfectly for everyday use. It's quite large, so I can easily fit everything I want to always have at hand. Made of durable material, it doesn't get damaged, the zippers work smoothly, and the price is very affordable. I am very satisfied with the purchase.

This is already my second pouch. I bought another, very similar one, because the previous one after several years of use at work started to break and wore out. The new one differs mainly in that it has a strap fastener on the other side and a different label. Other than that, it's very spacious, practical, and convenient.

A beautifully presented waist bag – crafted with attention to detail and the perfect size. It will definitely be useful during short trips to the city or bike rides. I especially appreciate the practical arrangement of pockets inside. I definitely recommend it!

I finally got this kidney bag – it will be useful for my EDC set, for now to switch with my bag, and also as a pouch for my backpack. I have a little more in the waist, but luckily the strap covers up to 122 cm under the belly. Typical Helikon quality – it's worth supporting a Polish brand.

I wonder what has changed over time at Helikon, because the zippers on this waist bag work very poorly and offer minimal resistance when used. This is already the fourth waist bag from this brand that I own, so I have a comparison.

The waist bag is very functional, carefully sewn, and well designed. It easily fits all the essentials and is comfortable to wear. The zippers open smoothly, and the fabric seems exceptionally durable. It works perfectly both for everyday use and during trips.

Great size of the Helikon waist bag for people who don't need to carry a lot of EDC items — that's a plus, because packing less makes the whole thing lighter, which will appeal to minimalism enthusiasts. It's good that the strap can be hidden inside and that there's a discreet pocket where you can hide a wallet.
