I use the alpaka tech case max just because it was heavily discounted ๐
EDC bro’s just discovered toiletry bags.
Can you possibly do a best toiletry bag list next ?
I’m having trouble relating to the desk caddy concept. Once I take my laptop and phone charger, and mouse, out of my tech pouch, I’m done. What are people taking in and out of a pouch such that they need it sitting open on their desk?
I had a bag smart tech pouch that I would use for travel or vacations. Itโs too big for a weekend or overnight trip, so I like the Tomtoc 1l for being simple

I use the CAP 2 every single day and it’s so enjoyable to interact with. If you are on the fence, just get it.
Great video as always…….it’s so true tech pouches are the toughest. I am with you I am not crazy about tech bags that are also slings……I am looking for a new tech pouch. I am switching to over the ear headphones and I know I will never find one that will hold them because I don’t want a huge tech pouch. I am leaning to bellboy, orbit key or tomtoc. I bet you could create the best tech pouch out there….
Iโm interested to see the new Bellroy lite pouches that just dropped
I’m looking for something that can be better than ziploc bags and a few simple MUJI/similar pouches if I want to be fancy but can’t find anything. I’m also not sure if electronics like cables and chargers really need padding, feels like they are sturdy enough to not break. But I do prioritize weight and volume reduction over easiness of access, that’s might be the reason.
I read that thumbnail wrong…..
Can any other fit same on-ear headphones? That’s actually good future when moving to office daily.
Evergoods and Peak Designs, I use the most.
Never heard of a "tech pouch". I was expecting Faraday bags.
Can the orbitkey tech pouch fit inside the alpaka flight sling 1L?
Impressive video, Aaron @ Nomads Nation. Looking forward to your next upload! I smashed that thumbs up button on your content. Keep up the fantastic work. Your insights on the versatility of tech pouches are really valuableโhow do you think the trend towards minimalist designs will impact the functionality of these products in the future?
Great summary, thanks. I originally used the Peak Design Tech Pouch, but it was unnecessarily large for my needs, so I switched to the AER Slim Pouch X-PAC with an orange interior for better visibility, and I love him.
I picked up the Alpaka Elements Mini. Not huge but big enough for my stuff. Well, the 26000 mAh battery does kind of push it, getting all the stuff in there… but that’s more of a sometimes-carry than always-carry anyway. It’s a solid case, in the smaller end.
I think the Orbitkey Tech 2-in-1 Pouch deserves more attentionโit seems like a solid mid-range option that balances simplicity and organization well, unlike the more complex Sympl brand. One thing you didnโt mention is that the inner pouch stands on its own and is magnetic, which is a pretty cool feature. Also, I noticed you didnโt cover the price and color options like you did for the other pouches.
AER Slim Pouch is perfect. Hold more than expected. And neatly.
Unrelated: I’m on my first trip with my new Belroy Lite Travel bag (30L) that I bought after watching your review and comparison. I’m loving it so far. Thanks!
For me, Evergoods and Aer. Simpl is only for too many gadgets and a bit bulky.
How does the modern dayfarer dayfer with bulkier items like chargers?
Would love to see you review the Step 22 Tenkile tech pouch. It’s like Evergoods CAP 2 & Nomatic Peter Mckinnon Sling 5L had a baby… but at accessible price point
I have the CAP 2 and love it! But I use it as a travel caddy (watch, phone, Airpods, keys, cables, EDC). It is a very versatile, well-made, and organized piece of gear. Thanks for your detailed and well-informed reviews.
The Evergoods one is my favorite.
Please fix the time codes. Mous, orbitkey, mous
I like the ones that you suggested, but Iโm not sure if both are either one of them actually can hold the iPad mini. Because thatโs what I need. I need something to hold an iPad mini and I believe thatโs under 90 inches.
There are so many choices for tech pouches out there; I imagine it had to be hard to narrow it down to just 11; great video as always Aaron! – Justin @ Vanquest Team
i know the CAP2 is currently out of stock but will be back this month, does anyone know if it will fit an iPad mini?
Still missing in your tests crdbags pouches .
Thatโs a pity that the ever good cap you present is the limited edition . Actually Iโd only get this color option if it was available , not for the reed but for the visibility and stealth
That’s a bucketful of (tech) pouches!
I usually don’t do them since I always gravitate towards the cute/quirky pouches or MUJI ones but I do like to see/watch what the ‘best of the best’ do look like
