Review on πŸ”Œ CLC Custom Leathercraft 1509: Premium Electricians Tool Pouch with Zippered 21-Pocket Design in Black by Chris Crisler

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Known lightning defect! Look at the corner part of the zipper, it doesn't make a sharp curve.

I ordered two of these 1509 inches and returned them. The zipper will not close due to a manufacturing/construction defect. I contacted CLC using the contact form on their website. a bad 1509 for another bad 1509 about Revain. When CLC finally emailed back, they stated that any 1509 ordered through Revain was defective. be new design. You can see for yourself by checking out the CLC website and comparing their 1509s to Revain models. In particular, the zipper has been repaired and the handle is different (rounded). Of course, they cost about $20 more - plus you pay for shipping. I have never experienced such a problem with Revain. It is important to note that CLC makes very strong, durable and well designed products. I work with a guy who has experience with a vintage 1509 that has been in heavy airliner service for over a decade. His bag was exposed to inclement weather, oils, liquids, and other contaminants. His bag is full and heavy, tossed about. He had absolutely no problems with the handle, zipper or any other feature of the bag. Simply put, CLC manufactures or USES to make the most of the best bags/bags/totes for our needs. I am seeking help with this issue until the CLC responds. If you need this model, I recommend making sure you get the "updated" model.
