CLC Custom Leathercraft 1509 Zippered Professional Electricians Tool Pouch, 21 Pocket , Black

I've been using this exact bag for the last 10 years as a industrial HVAC tech and it finally gave up so i bought another one. I've tried using backpacks, buckets, tool boxes, and $350 veto bags and I always come back to this bag. It carry so nicely on your should and hip (especially going up enclosed ladders), perfect size to carry all tools you need but not so big that it gets heavy and the flat side makes it really nice to lay down on top of a unit or hang it on the side of a scissor lift or tool cart. Also a M-12 drill or impact fits great in the side pocket. The flap is great also if your ever outside in the rain. Over the ten years that I used it the the shoulder strap buckle broke, the small rope handle broke, and then finally the bottom blew out. Can't say enough about this bag, it's the best for someone that has to lug tools all over.

I bought this bag to replace my toolbag that was involuntarily relieved of and I have to say that sometimes bad things can lead to good things with this bag being a great purchase. I do a telecomm work and needed a bag that was lightweight, able to properly close as I climb a lot of ladders and would hate for a tool to fall, and big enough to fit a variety of tools. This bag does all of this well along with having good build quality for the price. While some of the materials used are on the cheaper side, I can confidently say that the important stuff like the zipper and shoulder strap are well made and will last. I probably put around 20 hours of strain on this bag a week for a work and it has held up well so far with little sights of wear. As far as the design goes, this tool bag with well thought-out with many quality of life features like a piece of Velcro to keep the bag open, a hammer loop, and a few small pockets for small accessories. The big pocket can fit a small case of fittings and other small necessities that you may have without comparising too much on space. One con I do have with this bag is the lack of padding on the shoulder strap which sometimes can become fatiguing after a while. The holsters take a while to break in as well and it might be annoying to get some of your screwdrivers in at first but everything will eventually loosen up. Overall this is a great bag for $50. I highly recommend this product for anyone who needs something lightweight toolbag that can fit a decent amount of tools.

I've had this bag for a couple of months and use it as the primary tool bag for electrical, plumbing, data, and general maintenance work as an amateur. It took a bit of time figuring out the best way to pack it so just about every tool I need for whatever I'm doing is easily accessible and the bag still zips up, but once I did I found it to be much more convenient than any other tool bag I've owned. You can get a surprising number of tools in this bag, and unlike other soft-sided bags I've used the loops are big enough for cushion-handled screwdrivers, and the outer pockets are snug enough that tools don't fall out when you lay the bag on its side. The bag is much more comfortable to wear than I expected, and I normally keep it on with the Velcro strap holding the flap open while I'm working standing up. I find it much more comfortable and convenient than either belt-worn pouches or electrician-style soft boxes. I haven't owned it long enough to evaluate its durability, but the materials are very rugged and the zipper hasn't skipped teeth even when I jammed way too many things in it. CLC didn't scrimp on construction; metal rivets and hooks are used where a lot of manufacturers would have been happy with plastic that might last three months. The stitching is top-notch, as well, and the bag feels like it was built to the level of quality I associate with high-end messenger bag manufacturers. I have three issues with the bag: I can't fit my 9" side cutters inside the bag and have it zip up (though they and a 10" crescent wrench fit nicely in the cell phone pocket); the outside pockets are too small to accommodate thicker-handled pliers like the Klein Journeyman style, so my pump pliers won't fit; and I would like to have a tape measure hook on the outside. These are pretty minor things, however, and they haven't been a problem at all.

I bought this tool pouch about 8 years ago and still use it. I'm a control systems technician and need to carry a wide assortment of hand tools, gadgets and test equipment. This pouch has a lot of little dividers and loops to help organize the screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers and what have you. The large pocket on the body side is really nice for larger things and could hold mid-sized manuals or other thin items as well as test leads, a small thin box of connectors or ??? The tape roll holder is sweet for your Scotch 33 and teflon tape. I don't use the hammer loop. I worry too much about the possibility of dropping things when I'm up on a ladder. I haven't found a reasonably sized pouch that has better organization... not that this bag is that good... just that the others are worse. The fact that I'm still using it 8 years later is a good recommendation, although I would dump it in a minute for one with better features, I haven't seen one yet that seems better... and I'm always looking. The pouch seems well made with sturdy zippers, good stitching and rugged fabric. I'll have to admit I'm pretty easy on it though. It doesn't get thrown around a lot and the zippers aren't used all that often. The small zippered pocket on the flap side should be larger or pleated, maybe with some internal dividers or velcro pockets. Mine doesn't have the see-through mesh fabric. The carrying sling gave out after a couple of years (it kept letting go at one end) and I replaced it with a strap off a high quality computer bag. The hand carrying handle is pretty good for short distances if you don't want to use the sling strap. My pouch is full to the brim and then some so closing it up with the zipper is a no go. I just have to be careful about how I wedge it into the truck box so that it doesn't spill its guts. My main gripe about these bags is that they are made of black fabric on the inside. All of the inside should be light grey or light brown in order to see all the little gismos that get lost in the dark recesses of the black bag. Go ahead, try to find that errant black allen wrench that dropped out of its holder. Good luck! I often work in underground vaults and poorly lighted places and finding all my little gadgets in this bag could be a lot easier if it wasn't black on the inside. OK, so it doesn't' show dirt -- big deal! I'd rather be able to find my stuff without having to whip out my flashlight. I haven't found the 5 star tool pouch yet. I'm still hoping someone out there is willing to ask the trades people what they really want instead of assuming they already have it all figured out.

I work on electric and water meters for a living. This type of job requires that I keep a great many tools on hand at all times. I get in and out of my truck about 40+ times per day, so, it is not the bag I want to carry to EVERY job, but is convenient for those jobs when I don't know what I'm going to need until I get to the meter. The outer flap has a velcro strap that secures underneath the bag to keep it open while you're working giving easy access to tools, especially when wearing heavy electrical rated gloves and protectors which greatly reduce the dexterity one might need to find a tool down in a bag. Everything is stored in an upright position so all the handles are right there. At other times, the outer flap zips up so that you don't have to worry about tools or other small parts flying out of the bag if you throw it on the backseat. Besides, if you use the right pocket for the right sized tool this shouldn't be a problem anyway as the pockets hold everything securely in place. Also, there is a hidden pocket under the cushion side of the bag for personal items or papers. Just lift the 1/4" flap to locate the zipper. I like to carry cheat sheets that remind me of the codes my job uses and for meter prefixes which tell me what kind of service I'm working on, what the voltage is... etc. Wallets, money, licenses, etc. can be easily carried in this functional pocket. Since it sits next to your body while wearing it, it is not useful for any tools that will be needed while working. But, if you are using the bag for storage only this pocket is pretty deep and runs the width of the bag. I am a woman, but all the guys on my job liked the bag too. The shoulder strap can be easily detached, but they liked it just fine with the strap as well. We have tool bags (that the job gave us) that just have a handle, but sometimes you don't want to put your tool bag on the ground - some yards are just nasty... this bag makes it convenient to work by slinging the bag off to the side or back of your body, leaving your arms completely free to do the job. I carry a smaller bag when I just need my barrel lock key, wire cutters, and wiggy... but, this bag is for all those other jobs that are a little more complicated. It is constructed well for rugged use. I can tell that I will never have to replace this bag! The purchase price was well worth the money... would have even paid up to $20 more for it. Very good buy if you are looking for convertible storage that can be used on the job daily as well!

This product has been perfect for my needs. There is so much room for activities! I typically just zip up the sides as one of my screwdrivers is too tall for the zipper to go across the top. Zipping up the sides has been enough to keep everything in place if the bag tips or falls down. The bottom of the bag isn't reinforced, but that isn't too much of an issue for me. I keep my jab saw in one of the pockets and try to avoid letting sharp things get out in the open space. The bag is too heavy to wear all day, but I blame that on putting too much stuff in it- not a deficiency of the product. I have been extremely happy with the layout and number of pockets. I feel like all of them can be used and they allow easy and quick access and having to move things out of the way to get access. I have had many bags in the past where I have to move a tool to get to another. That is not an issue with this bag. The bottom of the bag is surprisingly very spacious too. I don't actively use the zippered pocket on the inside of the flap, I keep a couple rarely used items in it. I don't use the hammer loop, but it could be used for a variety of things other than a hammer. I have been very happy with this purchase. If this product does eventually wear out, I would buy it again- although I hope to upgrade to a Veto bag at some point.

Great service bag. Size is just right and works as good as you expect it would. The only thing I don't like is the top flap that folds down with the zipper pouch. The pouch is so deep and tight, it's hard to dig stuff out of it. Good price for what it is

Working in a secure airport. Obviously I don't want to lug my 80 pound 75 pocket CLC bag everywhere when I'm predominantly doing underground outside of the secure area. When I have to go into the secure area, I need something light, like a toolbelt but any dropped tool can get sucked up by a jet engine. So this met all my needs. It's light, closed top, the pockets fit enough tools to choke a project manager, and it's a great value. It has the over the shoulder strap and the handle and it still zips up even with my meter bag shoved inside. I'd call it a win.

Muy buen producto lo recomiendo a.pliamente muy bonita la mochila y practica

Awesome pouch. I’m a service tech so it’s perfect for a few screwdrivers and pliers for a quick call. I like that I can throw it over my shoulder and leave my hands free for a ladder or vacuum. There is a little pouch on the inside for screws or marrettes. I also like that I can zip the whole thing up and not lose any tools If it falls over.

10/10 on quality and size. It holds all my daily tools with ease. Great buy for that price too.

Carries all you need for 90% of maintenance jobs. Saves carrying your main tool case everywhere. Quality is good and size is perfect

Très pratique et solide, n'a rien a voir à ce que l'on peut trouver dans les grands commerces. Me suffit largement pour mes outils autour de la maison. Je recommande pour tout ceux qui veulent quelque chose de pratique et solide
