Product Sourcing:
When it comes to sourcing a product for review, I will usually either purchase and item personally or reach out to a supplier requesting a sample for review. Many suppliers are supportive if they are confident in their product, appreciating the value of greater exposure.
I am sometimes sent a product by a supplier which I may include if the product fits planned content and I believe will be of interest to you, my audience. The product needs to be worthy of a review and I always make it clear to the supplier that they cannot influence or be involved in the content in any way. It is not in my interest to review inferior or poor quality products and therefore as you might expect many product offers are politely declined.
Any sponsored videos (paid for reviews) are clearly stated as such so there can be no misunderstanding.
Sometimes a supplier will provide a link to the product or the supplier which I am happy to include in the description. Sometimes I will be provided with an affiliate link so I can earn a commission on sales and this helps to support channel costs but never at the expense of an honest review. There is no cost to you and in some cases discounts can be obtained via the link or via an included code.
If a product I have reviewed is available from Amazon I will often include an Amazon link in the description. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. If you purchase a product or service with the links that I provide I may receive a small commission. There is no additional charge to you.
Replying to Comments:
I really appreciate the feedback in the comments - I find it a source of knowledge and inspiration - so thank you to all of you who take the time to contribute. This is not just for me as the creator, it is a valuable source of information for all readers of the comments. I have recently found that if I continue to respond to all the comments as the number of videos builds, it takes significant time away from being able to produce new content which would be very counter productive! So my aim is to read everything I can and reply when I can, after each video goes live for the first few hours at least, and beyond that when possible. I'll see how that works out 😊

The notification for this video appeared whilst I was showing the Mrs something on my phone, her eyes rolled big-time 🤣
She’s going to hate me 🤣
Ha! Can totally relate 😂
😂
Same here bless them 😂
I am a Mrs. and I love your videos. I’m making a EDCs for our family’s upcoming vacay and these videos are so helpful. But even when I’m not, they are enjoyable!
Great to hear - I am so pleased they are helpful for you
Great overview and comparison!
I really appreciate you showing how the same kit fits in each pouch. No one else takes the time to do that 👍🏼
Yes, thank you, it was a really useful exercise I think
It’s always a bit of a puzzle finding the right pouch for a particular need and that’s the excuse I have for having a variety of pouches lying around. I tend to buy them on sale knowing that they’ll come in handy at some point. A very useful part of this review is the Maxpedition size comparison at the start - I can never remember which size is which. I’m a fan of that blaze orange interior too - it’s surprising how much easier it is to find things on a bright background. Good review Jon, thanks.
Good stuff. thanks for the feedback.
always a puzzle...
I ended up with an extra pouch that I just had to put something in
couldn't leave it laying around empty, got turned into a survival kit, not an EDC
it was the OneTigris Dragon Snail 2, with the map insert
instead of a map it got a mini-first-aid kit
settled on the OneTigris Blade for EDC
As Jon said you rally need a dedicated first-aid kit for travels
I have never seen a video on this subject even remotely as thorough and helpful as this. Great job Jon, your channel has quickly become one of my favorite stops on RUclips. Keep it up!
Wow, thanks! great to hear and appreciated
Seeing the differences between these pouches makes it much easier to understand why you prefer the Maxpedition. While their smaller models are perfect for your purposes, I'll need one of the slightly larger Maxpeditions. Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble of switching all that stuff into the different pouches. It was the deciding factor for me.
For el-cheepo alternatives, small digital camera pouches are useful for packing and carrying a few items in the pocket. There are lots on the web. Not the same standard as the above, but useful just the same. Thanks for the enjoyable and informative vids.
Very true I was at a thrift store and saw an old camera bag and realized that could do a similar job 😂
Watched dozens of pouch videos. Not one moved contents into the pouches. That was extremely helpful in making a decision. Thanks you.
I like my Maxpedition pouches very much and are very handy for all my EDC needs. I also recently bought one of their minimalist wallets that has been working perfectly.
What I like about this channel the most is, unlike so many others, not being told "you need this" or "you must have that" etc.
Yes, we all have different wants and needs. I change pouches and content according to where I'm going.
I've just added a spanker elite small tool pouch to the ever increasing collection 😂
The wynex admin/medic pouch is also excellent value and useful.
Just in my opinion!
A very helpful video (as nearly all of your EDC-videos). The video length is perfect for explaining even small details. Thank you so much for your time in taking these useful videos!
A few months ago I gave in to the my primal need of organizing stuff in packs, and got into pouches. First was a tool pouch with a generic Chinese pouch, then an EDC pouch with Alpaka Hub Pouch, and lately a tech pouch with Evergoods' CAP2L.
The CAP2L is incredible and I am pretty sure that you would also love it if you need something like it.
I use cap2l for my cables and power banks. Perfect!
I don't own the CAP2L but I have followed it and will include it in a future tech pouch round up - looks very good if not too big
@@JonGadget
Great! Looking forward to it.
Lots of its size is due to its rigidity, which I personally appreciate. I don't like floppy pouches
Ive been searching for a vid like this, and now Jon drops the perfect one!
Great 👍
Just got my mini in khaki and EDC in black very happy now to to catch up on the items to grab and this is the best channel for it thanks
Thank you for solidifying my decision to go with the various maxpedition pouches that I own.
no problem 😊
I have several maxpedition clones as you describe; very happy with them. The one I use to frequently carry my phone on my belt has held up very well after years of use.
good to hear 👍
I never saw the benefit of pouches until I started getting into EDC and they are so useful to keep things organised, especially if you switch between different bags or just need something to grab and go and of course having multiple kits. I actually use the small sized pouches for my pockets, got some from Osprey, one being in red, which is almost perfect for a personal first aid kit.
Exactly! 👍😁
Always thorough; great info. I love bags, pouches, storage solutions of all kinds. This stuff appeals to a very specific part of my brain.
How about an “action video” of how you actually carry your kits out in the world?
Would love to see your EDC in everyday use.
Great overview Jon, thank you it was a great source of information for me in making purchasing decisions
I recently got the Alpaka Hub Pouch and Zip Pouch Pro. I always find these pouches are just a little too big for what I need (I try to get the most compact gear possible). The Hub pouch is smaller than the Maxpedition Mini pouch at 4.7" * 3.5". On one side it has two elasticated loops and three on the other so it's possible to get your gear to interlock. The Zip Pouch Pro is great if you want a combination of wallet and pouch.
Thanks Jon, another useful review which convinces me I was right to go for the maxpedition mini which I got a few weeks ago on your recommendation. I absolutely love it. ❤
great to hear 👍
Great video. I appreciate your insight and research on these pouches. I have often bought gear without giving it much thought, but after having tried several pouches, I have to agree that the Maxpedition option is better than some of my previous choices and is one that I'm moving to. I have used pouches that do not lay flat, and it's not easy to see what is in it. Being able to see and find things quickly is important. I never thought that I could find inspiration in pouches, but you have managed to succeed in that!
Was just shopping for a pouch last night. Thanks for the video. Maxpedition it is.
great
I like the maxpedition but i also like the alpaka too…great comparisons…your very On point and precise…and show us the ins and outs of the workings and i love that!!!
This was 7 months ago but the title just gets me. u earn urself a subscriber mate
Great review as I was looking for a pouch to carry. This helps a lot with my decision. Thank you for the videos.
Just bought a left right pouch for electric needs after one of your videos. Thanks
def good value
Love the humor 😂
Can never see enough pouch vids! Keep em coming!
😁👍
And here I am, perfectly happy with my cheap Solognac pouch (about the same size as the Maxpedition Mini).
I found that I combined items from your mini travel and your mini kit for hiking. I found that the items i picked fit in the Maxpedition mini but it was really full and the zipper kept getting caught on the Hydroblu filter. So all that being said I got a bigger Maxpedition pouch so it is not more or less like the shape of a football. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you.
The thing about pouches is that different pouches meet different needs. I like how you transferred the contents of your kit into different pouches for comparison and obviously the Maxpedition was the best fit. However, I have put together a “take along office” kit using the Alpaka pouch you showed and it fits the need perfectly (in a way none of my Maxpedition pouches can).
So, like another commenter, I keep a variety of pouches on hand (different sizes and layouts) so I can find the right one to fit my need when I’m putting together a new kit.
Yes, definitely. This is why I wanted to focus on the kits i carry for this comparison.
You're the most calming and mature EDC man out there. It's like listening to a wise teacher and I like that you do actual budget budget videos too :)
Edit: I am also obsessed with your background decor
Saludos,really enjoy your reviews and living in the tropics and being a camper I learn a lot,great video.
Glad you like them!
I have been looking for a good pouch for few days and concluded on the maxpedition style after watching some of your older videos and others . Thanks for great content , it almost feels like you spying on me 😂.
You're welcome 😁
In my Maxpedition micro i keep everything, keys, wallet (+ Swiss card,Lifesystems tick card), headphones, mask, Victorinox farmex x, Fenix e12 v2, zippo, knipex cobra xs and i love it!😍
Perfect 👍
Now that was an interesting exercise. My conclusion, as Jon pointed out in a previous video, keeping your space/weight within a particular limit (size of a Maxpedition Mini), makes for a systematic decision process of what’s necessary or not. I was amazed at how well the Maxpedition performed, even against larger pouches. Brilliant video Jon.
Thanks for the feedback - I was surprised too. Being able to make most use of the space is the key.
I am a huge pouch fan. When I started using pouches I would buy a pouch and try to fit what I thought would fit and find out the pouch didn't work for that particular need. So I had to rethink my strategy...I started laying out the items; EDC, fire kit, FAK, etc., and find a pouch for them depending on the internal guts. It took several pouches but soon got very good at buying various pouches for my needs. My conclusion was Maxpedition, 5.11, and Vanquest. I store these pouches and grab them as to the type of situation. Each one is filled with the various items. They attach to the outside of my main pack(s) and free up the inside of the pack for larger items. I have also attached them to the carrier hanging on the back of the seat in my Jeep.
Jon - you are the master !
Great video- thanks
😊
For me, the tactile feel of Vanquest pouches is preferred over Maxpedition. Every Alpaka pouch I've bought has ended up being too small/cramped for my gear and doesn't function well. I actually have a knock off version of a basic Maxpedition pouch that's used for work EDC storage and it's killer! I actually enjoy knowing it's cheap and only serving as utility. But that's a personal thing regarding how I feel using/abusing my gear. 👍
Thank you for the video run through. It was insightful, helpful, and entertaining!
Brilliant vid as usual Jon. You're absolutely right about the PPM Slim, I got a PPM Husky from Germany (live on UK, couldn't find it here). It is a fraction deeper than the PPM Slim compares very favourably to the Max' Mini but has additional elastic loops inside. All the best.
a great option 👍
Great video thanks!
Another very informative video. I’ve accumulated a storage tub of pouches over the years as my needs and organizing skills have evolved. Where I am now is simple open layout pouches, with few, if any, loops or pockets. I find that just gives me so much more flexibility. I can use other small stand alone bags or pockets inside a larger pouch when necessary. This also gives me a degree of modularity. Like my repair kit and backup hygiene kit. I can carry these modular kits in my car kit normally, but easily transfer them to my carry-on for a flight. One use case for a very simple pouch is a Topo mini for EDC. I seldom carry a bag, so the Topo fits beautifully in one of the yoke pockets on my Vertx jeans or trousers.
Thanks for the feedback Doug - yes I use the mini Topo too for my lightweight urban kit - when it gets very small it's hard to find organisation that works
I'm stuggling myself with either just throwing stuff in small mesh zippered pouches (pencil cases?), or using a dedicated gadgets pouch with elastics and all that stuff... I enjoy my Hynes Eagle Travel Electronics Organizer, but am I taking more dead weight with me, then? I bought the Tomtoc 7L sling bag and I think it's pretty neat, but organizing the stuff inside the main compartment is the new challenge :) haha!
great video as per usual Jon. I'm personally a big fan of the ZeroFeud compact utility pouch for a wallet solution. it's 3”x4.5” and fits very easily into the pocket and allows me to carry things like a fisher space bullet pen, lighter, SAK and even a dude wipe in addition to my cash and cards.
looks interesting - thanks for sharing 👍
I have one in my car . Had it for years and still great condition . I’m looking for a new one so I can put my vessel screwdriver and bit set in .
Thanks John
Zip lock bags often do a good job, water tight, replace as needed, air can be sucked out and sealed. Not for everything, but works for many things.
thank you for you content. I like your very clear English to understand. greetings from Germany 🤜 🤛
Guten Tag Germany
Great video as always!
You definitely should try the Barbibal organizer pouch. They are custom made to order. Whatever you want inside, extra pockets, 2nd row of elastic band etc. Only drawback I waited over a month to get mine to the UK.
Not heard of these! Thanks for sharing - will check them out.
I love my Badlands Everything Pocket pouch for my basic needs local wilderness pouch, and I also use alot of Burton waist packs and smaller backpacks for smaller items. I HIGHLY SUGGEST both of those brands. I also use Badlands Ox and 511 Rush 72 for outdoor trips, though the 511 gear is heavy despite being indestructable.
I have ordered a Maxpedition mini and Skinny, and they are on the way. I will comment when I get some use from those.
Thanks for sharing! I'll have a look.
Good insights
i love your reviews!
Thank you!
Love the kit videos!
More to come!
Long time watcher, first time commenter. Have you ever tried the Maxpedition Neatfreak? I keep all my gear in it and throw it in my work backpack . Then if I'm heading out for lunch and don't want to take all my work gear or a big bag, I just grab the neatfreak out. I also pack the removable carry strap into the bag when not using it as a standalone bag. It's like a hybrid bag/pouch, absolutely loving it. Loving your work too.
Great video, I can't wait for the next one
Thank you
I wish one of these companies made a Maxpedition style pouch in the size of 4" by 3" just the size to fit credit cards and easily fits in a pocket.
Love to see a comparison of pocket/ wallet sized pouches too. As well as sling bag options if you have more to recommend besides the Belroy
Good idea re wallet pouches - also will no doubt do a sling bag round up at some point this year too
Very good presentation 👍 Thought I was thinking too much about multi tools, kits, being prepared... Etc until...................I see what others are up to 😄
we are not alone! 😊
I’m a big fan of those pouches and combine them with Tasmanian Tiger molle adaptors and the Maxpedition TacTie’s to attach them to hook and loop panels in backpacks so they keep in place
great to know thanks for sharing
On the strength of your previous review of the Maxpedition mini I bought one and keep a tubeless tyre repair kit in it on my motorcycle, there’s room for more stuff and easily stored on the bike.
Good to know
My beefy is full
Impressive amount of stuff fits in this pouch
Good stuff thanks
No problem 👍
Difficult to find the best one, it is probably a personal choice depending how many items you want to carry and the way you want them displayed. I have the mini and it is a good starter for many different usage. It is a lot easier when they open flat, you are right.
Absolutely - and why I decided too focus on my particular kit use case
Very nice to see what else is out there. I carry the Leatherman bit kit in the PAL’s webbing of the Vanquest PPM Slim which gives additional room inside. Though I appreciate the staggered slots of the Vanquest I resist the urge to fill every slot and look at them as optional positions. I’m trying to avoid the fill every space temptation which then leads me to buying a bigger pouch which I will then again fill. I try to fill a pouch which will lay flat in a cargo pocket rather than in a pile at the bottom. I have to be conscience of weight as well or I feel lopsided and get dirty looks from my chiropractor. I’m hoping to work my way down to a Maxpedition Micro but that may be too over ambitious of me.
Great feedback - agree avoid temptation to fill every slot - nice if it works but not essential
Great review Jon. Two things that are very difficult to beat, Maxpedition and YKK.
😊
thing about Maxpedition is that you need to buy extra straps for MOLLE atachment
I've also in the past had a mis-stitched Maxpedition Bag which soured me on that brand
I currently use a OneTigris Blade, opens flat
so far it is working well & holds quite a bit
I would also like to say:
EDC pouches are a huge deal here in North America, but you by far have the more explanatory videos on this topic, and from the UK.
Very well done Sir.
That's very kind of you to say - thank you 😊
Jon, first of all i love Your videos and Your approach to the topic! Ive became a maniac in terms of finding proper pouches for multiple purposes, my main EDC contains mostly tools and materials that i find useful in various situations. For me Helikon-Tex admin pouch worked the best since it has removable insert which is extremely clever and allows to have extended capacity of the pouch ( i would say that i can fit two times more items in the pouch than in standard maxpedition) without loosing ability to have everything organised, and in the known places. So please take a look on this helikon piece of gear, i think in term of bigger EDC pouch its product worth concideration! cheers!
I have an EDC pouch that's ultra small and I just carry a notebook, flashlight, screwdriver, and a pencil. it doubles as my wallet so it's doubly useful for me
although it's less of a pouch and more of a tactical pen protector. it's made by viperade. it's just thick enough to get the essentials in there.
There's a nice Maxpedition-inspired brand in Ukraine, called CaseIt. They're making their pouches in Kharkiv, with YKK zippers (even one zipper pocket inside in bigger model), Cordura fabric, and superb sewing. They have few unique design decisions and I don't like to call them a "Maxpedition copy", but a competitor 😁 For example, they place elasticated loops vertically on the right side (in bigger model), which helps placing bulkier items.
I recently got an Alpaka Admin pouch, for better sporran organization.
Try the EDCM Vanquest pouches, they have 2 models PPM and EDCM. Each have configuration of internal bands. Really love their products
will check them out - thanks
I have the Solognac S (X Access pouch), its olive green, cheap (less than 10€) but solid quality.
Not available in UK?
I do love a coincidence I’ve had the Onetigris admin pouch in my Amazon basket for 3 days.
Excellent video, I like how you move your contents from pouch to pouch. Subscribed !
Thanks for the kind words and sub and welcome to the channel 👍
I've got the Alpaka Utility Pouch and agree it's a little awkward but I use it for my design gear which works well. One thing I've noticed though and I need to get in touch with Alpaka about it is the elastic loses its elasticity over time, not great. Also inside the big pouch on the non zipped side there's a hidden pen loop which I discovered by accident.
Thank you Jon for a great overview. I've been carrying a Maxpedition micro pouch in my pocket for years and can speak to the cost efficiency of paying a bit more for something that will last much longer.
Great to hear 👍
Another "vote" for the Micro. Being an old school Ranger, and retired peace officer, both professions often require one carries what they need. "Ounces became pounds" as time progresses. Now, in my 70's, I try to carry less, but found it was not smart with everything stuffed into many pockets. Thus, I use the Micro with convenience and confidence. A great little pouch that carries much.
Thanks for sharing - good to know
Bro, you respond to pretty much every comment, nice, i really appreciate that, thanks, keep makeing the grate videos
I try - but I can't get to every comment - thanks for the feedback 👍
Nice
No surprise Vanquest did something similar as they were founded by ex Maxpedition guys. I have some Vanquest gear and it is superb quality. I'm also a big fan of 5.11 and I have a great small 5.11 pouch, but my favourite is my Maxpedition EDC which I use as a travel pouch. Superb quality, great design and looks, and affordable. Where pouches are concerned you can't beat Maxpedition.
Thanks for sharing - good to know
I have a Maxpedition Micro and love it. It's bloody awesome, but.......I wish they also made one even smaller. Minimalist carry.
Nice idea - worth mentioning Alpaka make some great small pouches
I'm never carrying something with the word 'nutsac' on it
🤣🤣🤣
Sir, you know how to ignite our good-vibe neurons. Well done as usual.
Thank you 👍
I use the Nitecore NPP10. Which I actually carry on my person, it's about the max size for something that is pocketable. A budget option really, but I've yet to find something better. I only carry things I'm likely to need, which is why I carry a much smaller pouch.
thanks for the sharing Mark 👍
Big fan of the Manhattan Portage Atlas. Pricey but well designed and constructed
Quite large and pricey as you say but nicely done!
Right. I combine tech and travel items in this when I travel, therefore the size. Thanks for your excellent content.
Definitely my favourite Jon Gadget thumbnail so far 😃👍
Great to hear
I've been saying to myself for a while (since the Mrs couldn't give two hoots) that the Maxpedition pouches are a little bit magic. I've tried the Vanquest Slim and wasn't able to get the contents of my Maxpedition Micro to fit in it, let alone the Mini.
Having said that, if you'd consider doing a giveaway of that Alpaka pouch, I wouldn't hesitate to enter 😉
FYI - I don't recommend the $30 - VIPERADE VE10 Tool Pouch, EDC Pocket Organizer. It does not hold anything of width and basically zips up into a ball. Very mileading considering all of the pockets inside and outside of the pouch - minimal flex.
👍 thanks for sharing
You kill everyone’s wallets John 😂
Excellent job per your usual creative conversation style of content & when you are talking about a product that you like, safe to say that I'm not sure who would want to interrupt the Gadget Guy!!!
The biggest problem I had was to keep track of most of my items , especially the times when I desperately needed them . Such a terrible feeling and I can't tell you how many times I've heard " did you find it " 🤬 until I lost my mind from living my life in auto pilot !!! Thankfully nowadays my simple mind has been trained , I met someone that had her life together and she showed me how to do the same....Eventually I was going to get my shit together 🦕
Make the bed , make your own meals & make routines . The clutter that I grew up with has been purged 🔥 Now the only thing that matters is the things that matter so I take care of them and I am sure glad to be able to see the items I'm going to be needing...Simple minds can be trained and I think it is deserving of a mention that I love my THULE pouches & packs that always have their place in my North Face Borealis 28 L backpack.
I love the Thule organizers. I have multiples because they are so versatile!
Thanks for sharing - great to hear about your experience - and Thule recommendation 👍
Great video
Thanks!
Thanks Jon. Another fantastic review. 🎉
I’m somewhat surprised that nearly all comments (as of my writing) agree with you and the Maxpedition. I also have the Vanguard. For my use, the Vanguard wins! I like the offsetting loops, the loop on the lower end and orange background. While both are fine products, in the end, I believe the choice Vanguard vs. Maxpedition really depends on what fits better with your EDC gear.
Cheers. 👍🏻
I think you meant to say Vanquest? Yes, a lot depends on specific use-case 👍
@@JonGadget Correct. VanQUEST not Vanguard. 🫢
Great review @JonGadget Did you ever considered the Tasmanian Tiger TAC POUCH 5?
Maxpedition micro here, from your advice;-)
Can be warn in a coat pocket, backpack etc. And i was baffled how much i could put in that when your layout is good. 28 items so far.
Great feedback - Micro is great
@@JonGadget anytime!
Half the bag is filled with stuff i got from your channel lol :-)
Here's my dilemma with EDC packs. I see the packs, the various sizes, great reviews, etc. I see loads of stuff carried in, for instance, a Maxpedition Mini. I get said pack, can't fit as much stuff in it, and it's still way too stuffed and thick (and heavy/bouncy) to pocket carry, even in cargo pants. As much as I like the convenience of a singular grab-and-go bag, I'm coming to realize that distributing my carry around my pockets - while not as quick to load up when leaving the house - will work better.
Nixon Bandit 2 bag for chest carry.
Great content, Jon. I would be curious to hear your thoughts on the AGR series of Maxpedition pouches.
I love my EDC tool kit but when the police find my zip ties and my duct tape, they spend ages trying to find the balaclava! Tut tut. Like I'd keep that in the same kit hehe
I will always be a little puzzled by wanting to keep a flashlight on a Keychain, or in a pocket. (Also keeping a knife on your person.)
I have them, just not necessarily on my person. I keep them in a bag/pouch, and/or at my desk (aka workspace).
[I do have a small pen knife that I keep on my person, that does come in handy from time to time.]
Came across your videos and love them. They’re so relaxing to watch and gives me loads of ideas , although I think we have different ideas of affordable 😂 but I think you’d put together an awesome motorcycle EDC if you could 😊
😂 I’ve had a few bikes but not anymore 🙁
@@JonGadget aww that's a shame you'd make an epic kit! I've been watching your videos because I plan on motorcycle camping and I wanted some ideas ☺️
I want that Elpaca please it looks like the one I’ll be needing on my fishing trip. Thanks
