Review on πŸŽ’ Optimized Shoulder Accessory Pouch by Chrome Industries by Richie Kotun

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Might be perfect but not for me

Just got it and decided to return it immediately. The quality is very good and it looks like it's quite versatile, but trying to attach it to a backpack shoulder strap or even Chrome Vale 2.0 (using the accessory's patented attachment point) didn't work. The velcro straps are too far apart for the bag to be securely attached to anything. In addition, despite the two belt loops, you can only use the upper one. The bottom one isn't wide enough for the velcro to get out of the way, or you'll end up with flapping velcro wings if you choose to use the bottom loop. It just seems like a meaningless piece of cloth. I wanted to love it, but it doesn't quite fit my purpose. 4 stars for Chrome's excellent build quality. I deduct 1 star for the somewhat clumsy performance. I suspect there's a reason none of the Chrome product images/examples show the velcro on the back in action.

Pros
  • Inner mesh organizer pocket
Cons
  • High price
