I travel A LOT and packing chargers, hard drives, cords, and cables take up a lot of space. The tech pouch allowed me to eliminate about 4 separate pouches and freed up space in my Everyday Packpack (30L). It packed well in my carry-on bag and left me with extra space that I could use for more important items.
I like bags and I have many, some were mistakes and some were upgrades for minor trivial updates I liked. This tech pouch is the best I have used so far, I now have 2, one for my work EDC and one for my camera kit when traveling. Plenty of organisation while keeping things slim and tight, live the feel, love it's functionality and good range of neutral colors to choose from. It's they last tech pouch I'll buy.
I just bought my second tech pouch. I use my green one for computer and phone accessories, and my new black one for my camera gear. Truly excellent design, this is the best way I have found to organize all the bits.
I have ordered it as a tech pouch at first, but then I learnt there is more than one way of using it, by attaching my bag strap or belt, it comes a cross body bag or a waist bag. and because of the organized inner pockets, I can actually imagine myself using this bag for airport travels, to quickly gain access to documents and passports. I can also see me buying a another one to organize my other travel items like jewelries, health care stuff.
Please consider carrying over the hook from the Wash Pouch. It takes up very little space, but adds huge utility. So much, in fact, that I've considered switching their roles. How? Look at the tray latch on planes. There's a little slot there that will take a thin cord or - you guessed it! - a small metal hook. This allows the pouch to hand directly in front of you while the tray is up (always is for me). I use a small loop on a competitor's pouch to do this and would be happy to share a picture to show what I'm describing if you like. But the hook would be even better.
I'm a super-commuter, so I'm picky, opinionated, and don't mind investing in good travel/EDC gear. The Tech Pouch is as good a solution as I've tried. Moves seamlessly from EDC to travel, and I always know where my tech accessories live. I have to avoid the temptation to overstuff it, not that it would mind, but to keep the weight down.
Only suggestion I'd make is to move one or both sets of pen loops down, from the top flap to the side of the pouch to allow for larger and longer pens, styluses, etc. I'm curious if a little padding in the bottom two panels might encourage standing on its own and offer a bit of energetic unloading protection. Lastly, I'd like the "origami" section to curve inward at the top corners so the thickest part, in the top center, are encouraged away from the zipper.
All that having been said, it's a great pouch, and I've tried a lot of them.
Just when I thought it reached its capacity a minor rearrangement of items allowed it to compress shut. The tech pouch has become my new favorite organizer for all of my gear inside the home and out. So going out of the house and out of town has become a lot easier because all of my tech needs are ready to go. It goes without saying that I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
