Update - we found the price → go.nomadsnation.com/aer-slim-...
Aer has done it again, they have just launched a new tech pouch and it's their slimmest one yet, with a 1.5-liter capacity. Unlike most tech pouches which are meant to live inside your bag, this one doesn't look out of place being carried on its own, be it on campus or in the office.
Its capacity may seem small on paper, but the Cordura ballistic nylon has enough flexibility to allow this pouch to be packed with an impressive amount of gear.
**********
Get the Aer Slim Pouch if…
✅ You don't carry a bunch of tech gear
✅ You are a minimalist
✅ You're sick of losing your gear in your bag

DO NOT get the Aer Slim Pouch if…
❌ You carry more gear (photography gear, Bluetooth mouse, a laptop charger, larger power banks, and so forth.) The Aer Slim Pouch is not going to fit all of that gear. We suggest looking for a larger alternative. Check out the links below... 👇🏼
→ Peak Design Tech Pouch → Larger and great for photographers

Aer has a cult-like following and with good reason, their products strike a great balance between minimalism and usability. Their products are simple to use and are made of extremely strong materials, for example, Cordura ballistic nylon and YKK zippers. Their products don't cost an arm and a leg and will last a very, very long time.

Do you want to help me build a game-changing backpack? 👉🏼 nomadsnation.com/building-a-backpack
I just received it and packed it with my electronic essentials. Basically, I really dig the build quality and the internal layout. I put a microfiber cloth in the small zipper area, some chargers, dongles and cables in the main area, and a pen behind the Aer logo.
A few points I want to add to your review:
- I actually like that the flap is not super flush as it makes accessing it easier, but it still doesn't open itself if I don't want to.
- Even though the zips are really smooth, it requires two and sometimes three pulls in order to fully open, as they always get stuck in the final "turn".
I'm really happy that I made an order, and as always, Aer did not disappoint.
Great points Tom, and I agree - the lack of flush-ness has grown on me. Aer nailed it again!
Solid video as always! I peeped that you had the lil blue colored timer joint going as you went through each section of the review. Nice touch!
Already have the Peak Design tech pouch but ima go ahead and get the Aer one too haha
Thanks so much Damion!
Great review! Very informative and through walk through. 👍🏻
Thanks so much Anthony!
This is my choice for a tech pouch. I like to carry a handful of pens and pencils to bullet journal and that exterior pouch fits my utensils perfectly. This lets me combine my pen/pencil pouch and my old tech pouch. Love it!
Thanks for the comment Trevor! And I agree, this is my fav tech pouch and is a crucial part of my EDC
You are one of my favourite channels for reviews - informative and entertaining IMO. I love your 'best bags' videos as it's not a top 5, but a best recommendation for minimal, travel, business, etc. Wondering if you can do the same for pouches - best for home office on the road, minimal, photographer, etc. something like that. Also, love that you are doing other EDC gear aside from packs and slings - I'd like to see some on dopp/toiletry kits - that's another thing you can drop a fair amount of money on surprisingly. Just some thoughts - keep up the great content!
Thanks so much Jeff!!! We are actually working on diversifying our content even more - we just shot a Bellroy Pouch review (will be live soon) , and I have a ton of tech/toiletry/dopp kits to review. Stay posted and thanks so much for your support ♥️
I bought it. Stoked! Do I need it? No but I like everything are does.
I told myself I won't buy any more pouches. But then I watched this review...
Story of my life haha
I have the larger AER cable kit x-pack edition and I love it! However I think this is perfect to use with AER bags since I can use the bag’s internal organization for larger things like my laptop charger, mouse and other bulky items and the smaller things I carry can be in this pouch. Love the videos man, keep it up!
Thanks Mitchell and totally agree! Aer's bags have enough organization for the bulkier items, so this is the perfect solution for smaller tidbits of gear :)
Ordered, and used your link, thanks for the review
You the man Chris! Thanks so much :)
Found this channel the other day. Very informative and entertaining videos. Used your link to buy this one pouch, went a little nuts and bought two more pouches. 🤣 Can't wait to get them!
Thanks so much!
4:37 I saw several videos about this pouch and yours was the first one to give such a detailed and crisp display of its interior, thanks!
Glad to help mate!
@@Nomads.Nation Ordered one for myself too, although I already have the mini and xxl versions of Thule's Subterra Powershuttle. But those are respectively too small and too large, so I will have a great mid-size EDC pouch too. thx
@@rlfstr Sounds like you are fully covered now! Let me know what you think of the Aer Slim Pouch once you get it. I've been using mine everyday and I truly think it's fantastic :)
@@Nomads.Nation My favorite tech pouch for sure! Just the exact amount of space I need, and I love how it always stands up effortlessly. In fact I like the tech pouch so much that I decided to get the Tech Sling 2 too. Your glowing review of the Tech Sling 2 helped seal the deal for me as well.
Still using this pouch every day more than a year later. Definitely the best tech pouch for my needs. It fits my power bank, mouse, USB hub, some cables, charger, e-reader and external SSD drive perfectly, there is a little pocket or sleeve for each item, it always stands up, opens up really nicely, and isn't too bulky like my Thule tech pouch which is really boxy. Great materials and design.
100% agreed. A year later this is still my tech pouch of choice
Most underrated gear you tuber in YT!
Thanks so much Naiem! We've got some huge announcements coming in the next few months - be sure to subscribe!
I have two AER slim tech pouches. One for my tech and other for my toilets (use as wash pouch). For people like me who like minimalist and do not travel around things don’t use, it is the perfect pouch!
agreed! one of my all-time faves
Ordered! Thanks for pointing out the pen loop! That's something I never knew i needed thanks to the peak design tech pouch but as you said, it's too big for everyday. I'm just curious, what city are your exterior shots in? I can't tell.
Glad to help! We are based in the beautiful city of Hong Kong 🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰
Dammm you guys are quick! Just got an email from Aer that they have a new pouch and several minutes later I see this review
BTW, I just bought this in black with your affiliate link 💪
edit: congrats for hitting 3k!
Thanks so much Tom! And let us know what you think about the Tech Pouch once it arrives :)
@@Nomads.Nation Just received it. Posted my thoughts on it in a separate comment
This is a good video.
Thanks so much!
good review - that loop could have been on the other end so that your maneuver to hold pouch / loop with one hand and open with the other would work for a righty (vs. how you had to do it lefty, which most people won't do). Would have added to the pouch, but that would mean reversing the zipper, and in that case the zipper would be backwards as most people would expect it to open from left to right. So it seems the zipper won out in that decision. keep up the great reviews.
Thanks for the comment Dave! Interesting take on the loop, but I guess your right - the zipper won that fight 💪
Excellent review. Any major differences between xpac and black?
I've actually never reviewed an X PAC from Aer before so I don't know. Hoping someone in the community can help
To solve the AER jingle get wire cutters and toss them. Find zipper pulls you like. Paracord cobra pulls are quiet and make no noise!
Paracord cobra pills are the next level of being a backpack-nerd and I can’t wait to start making my own 💪🏽 thanks Danny!
Loved the video! Your sound may be compressed.
Thank you so much! Yes we had some sound difficulties with this one :(
I'm glad that 7" fits...saw that smirk btw :)
😏
Hahahaha
Pls make a review on nomatic navigator travel bag
Working on it! Hopefully in the next few week :)
Today ... Sept 2023 what is the best tech pouch in your opinion? I just bought the Aer city Pack based on your video and want to pair a great pouch with it... Great content appreciate the videos!
There is no best, it totally depends on how much tech gear you carry and more importantly - what - tech gear you carry. For me tho the Alpaka Vertex Pouch is killing it for me. I got an early sample, it’s currently on Kickstarter, and we’ll be publishing our review in around 8 hours. Aside from that, Bellroy Desk Caddy and Evergoods CAP2
AER also has a larger tech pouch I bought in New X-pac version.... love it
me want!
@@Nomads.Nation went a little nuts on x-pac: but can never have too many small bags and in 🍊 and black, right? BTW, Impressed you read back on past comments and still comment👏
@@mkphilly I feelz you on that orange and black - it's not even fair tbh. And I do respond to every comment on this channel - sometimes it just takes me a while to get to them 😂
I still prefer my Sterkmann tech pouch (you can see it as a PD tech pouch clone but it added functionality) but awesome video nonetheless!
Thanks Goncalo!
Hi, nice detailed shots! But I´m not sure if my big ass power-supply unit (Lenovo, 6.3*2.9*3.2 inch) and mouse (Logitech MX Master 2.5*3.3*1.9 inch) fits. What do you think? Would be great if you could check
Thanks Konfu! Unfortunately I won’t be able to check that for you - maybe reach out to Aer and ask them, their customer service is usually very responsive :)
Love it...hope to buy 1 soon...Mr Aaron I always watch your videos and subscribe, however, I need your help in choosing the right bag for me, I'm planning to travel from Philippines to Canada to take my MBA course and I need your advice in choosing the right backpack and pouches for travel, college and business all in one...really appreciate your response to this...I'm amazed how you do bag reviews....👍👍
That seems like a tough one- one bag for every day carry for a year/two PLUS being big enough to bring a significant amount of clothes. Hmm. personally i would use a suitcase for my clothes and an EDC for living there. I think the closest one bag solution would be the peak design travel pack, because it can compress down to 35 L but tis still going to be a bit of a pain in the ass for every day carry... Aaron, what do you think?
@@theonlyTavetski thank you for the reply Sir and for the advice...however I am not a photographer 😁 though am a fan of Peak Design as well...you'all nailed it when it comes to bag reviews that's what I love about you guys...so please help me...Thanks a bunch 😁😊
Thanks for the love Brenda! I think that this depends on how much stuff you are bringing. If you can get away with a large backpack, then the Tortuga Outbreaker might be a great option, but if you are packing a TON, then a suitcase might be better. I don't think you'll find a perfect pack that will be able to help you move across the world as well as be an EDC. Maybe just focus on getting a cheap suitcase to get your shit to Canada, then get an AWESOME EDC for your daily life. What do you think?
The Black Ember forge might be a good choice if you are going to try all in one - it expands - but I agree with Aaron as well, might be better suited with just a good suitcase, and a good EDC pack in the 25L range ... for weekly travel I typically just have a roller packed with packing cubes, and then my Boundary Errant as my EDC there (although I'm starting to get into slings :) )
@@Nomads.Nation hhmm...that's a good one...I really appreciate all of your help guys...I will keep on watching your channel and always excited with new reviews 👍👍 more power!
This video convinced me to make a purchase decision. This Aer slim pouch is good enough to hold 2 plus phone size, AirPod, slim wallet, tissue.
love this pouch, hope you like it!
@@Nomads.Nation I just pulled purchase trigger. The Xpac will be useful especially it’s raining season amid high temperatures due to crazy humidity level.
@@sglatitude nice! be sure to let us know what you think about it after testing for a few weeks
optimal pouch
100%
How do you like this compared to the bellroy classic?
This wins 💪🏻
Can you tell me if a pair of Bose qc35s fit ?
Sorry dude, never owned a pair, I recommend reaching out to Aer - they'll get you sorted :)
Will the main compartment hold an iPad Mini?
I don't own one so can't say for sure - reach out to Aer they'll get you sorted :)
can only buy this product from amazon
I would like to get a link
I don’t have one - is it not for sale on their site right now ?
Would the Logitech MX master 3 mouse fit comfortably in the pouch?
Ah not sure. I’d recommend reaching out to Aer to be certain - they’ll get you sorted 💪🏾
I got the same mouse but I seldom bring it out. It surely fits but it depends on what comfortably means. I have the same pouch and mouse if you have some kind of platform I can just send you the photo like how it fits in
@@wilsonlyt5765 Could you do this for me? I`m trying to find some edc small tech pouch. It's too difficult to find something small that still supports a full-size mouse.
Hi! I couldn't decide between the Aer slim pouch versus the Wandrd medium tech pouch. Can you help me? Thanks in advance. Not going to use it for travel. For everyday use only.
Love both but the Aer Slim is my all time fav
@@Nomads.Nation thank you.😊
@@dontheogre5230 glad to help!
@@Nomads.Nation one more question, I'm sorry. Is the Aer cable kit 2 really that big or bulk for everyday use like going to mall? Im just having second thoughts with the slim pouch coz it might be too small carrying it around the mall? Thank you.
@@dontheogre5230 depends what you carry dude. But at the end of the day it’s not HUGE, I just prefer something smaller
Will an MX master 3s fit in there?
not sure, we recommend reaching out to Aer. Be sure to let us know what they say!
Lol that Aer zipper jingle is the main reason I haven't bought any of their products. #FirstWorldProblem
Such a first world problem 😂 but tbh I don't think it's that bad, especially on this pouch
Bro what's the name of the small tablet in the video?
It's a Lenovo t8, and I was wrong in the video, its's a 8" screen and a 9.5" tablet, measuring 8.25 inches X 4.8"
Will a kindle paperwhite fit?
it should, but maybe best to double check with Aer. Please let us know what they say!
is this pouch available in the UK?? cant find it anywhere...
Hmmmm... Aer should ship worldwide - have you checked their website?
@@Nomads.Nation yes I have but shipping to the uk always seems to have randomly added sums ha! I'll drop them a message and see if they can fix a cost.
Great review but who are you talking to when you aren’t looking at the camera??🤔
Thanks! That's our camera and editor Tav :)
Link ("Updated link - get the best price here") is broken. :(
Really? Just tested it an it worked for me - try again maybe ?
Will a laptop charging brick fit in this pouch?
Not sure, never used one before. Let me know if you find out!
I don’t like how it kind of leans forward. It can balance and stand upright depending on load out, but it still leans forward.
a little lean for sure, but imo it's fine as long as it stands up
Between this one and the Bellroy Tech?
Bellroy Tech is great but I’ll take this one all day
The transitions were kinda distracting
Thanks for the input!
Your audio seems messed up.
Yea not our best audio on this review - sorry!
Great video! Buying off your link. Found this from your other review: ruclips.net/video/4quL0IT_ccQ/видео.html Been looking for something to carry charger, mouse and cables while traveling, so many choices, so glad to find a great fit here!
Thanks so much James and glad we could help you find what you were looking for!!
No good too slim
Depends on what gear you carry - it’s perfect for me!
Honestly, your videos would be more watchable if you stopped trying to be funny, and would lose the extreme closeups of your face and weird angles.
Focus on the product rather than trying to clown.
lol
I disagree, that's his personality and what makes him unique. If you don't like it then watch somebody else...
