From Gear Chaos to Organization Calm - Mauhoso Packing Cubes Review


Kit Bags or Pack Bags are designed to help organize and store different types of gear, equipment, clothing, and other items in a compact and efficient way. This can include things like outdoor gear, tools, clothing, food, and more.

Kit Bags are just one example of what separates experienced backpackers and campers from newbies - an experienced backpacker for example will be able to locate an item quickly whereas a newb will stash their gear all over the place and will likely forget where they put it.

Pro's Will Carry this With Them on Every Trip, Newb's Won't


When stepping foot into the outdoors, very few things are more comforting and crucial than the ability to make fire. Fire provides warmth, light, a means to cook food, a means for sterilizing water and importantly, hope. 

With that being said, starting a fire in less-than-ideal conditions like after a heavy rain, during a harsh winter storm or during a sudden downpour, can be a daunting and difficult task. 

That's where the vitally important fire kit comes into play.

Never heard of a fire kit before?  

No worries, in this episode I am going to go over every single aspect concerning them and will be assisting you with building your own.

Numbat Review 

Price : Retail price is $65 – which is $10 more expensive than it was 3 years ago.  These go for $77 on Amazon. You may find a seller who is trying to rip people off on these too, for an example, there is one seller trying to unload these for $120 which is crazy high.  Don’t get ripped off.

Weight : 17.28oz

Dimensions :

7.68 X 11 X 2.36 in

Colors : 9 Color Options - This is the Shadow Gray version - there are green variations , red, camo, black and so on.

Materials : 500D Cordura - YKK zippers
Elastic Pockets 

Review Pros :

Excellent quality – top notch materials 

Excellent zipper pulls 

The chest rig is very adaptable – lots of pockets and is user adjustable 

Wearing : Some people like to carry the Numbat higher up on the chest, I find that I prefer it a little lower - about mid-Chest level as I’m able to vent heat from the upper chest - This helps with staying a bit cooler in warm conditions.  

Can be used easily with backpacks and doesn’t interfere with the way that the pack carries and I have tested this out with dozens of different packs.

Comfortable

Easy to use, easy to open and easy to access

Easy to put on and take off – TIP : undo one buckle and throw it over your shoulder and then buckle it in.  I’ve seen people try to put it on in other ways – do it any other way and it can be awkward.

Capacity is very good - Can hold a lot - Great size, not too bulky.

Two front stretchy pockets

Weather Resistance 

Speaking of which, the Numbat offers Excellent water resistance.

Excellent solution for Concealed Carry 

You can easily attach to the pack and even to the straps - you have MOLLE on the front cent and bottom - I’ll admit that I have never felt the need to do that.

Because the pack is thin, it can be worn under a jacket if that is what you want to do.  I don’t wear it that way myself but I know some who do.

Opens in the form of a tray

The main compartment has a velcro loop back panel to attach your own pouches or dividers

Shock cord on the bottom so you can attach addition items such as a rolled up poncho - you may not use this feature often, I haven’t but it’s nice to have that attachment point.

Strap keepers on all for points.

Buckles at each corner so you can easily put it on or take it off no matter what your dominant side is

Excellent price 

Cons : 

This is my only Real Con - Sweat 

Smaller Con 1 - Laser Cut Molle 

Smaller Con 2 - Can take some work to adjust to go over larger jackets/layers

Smaller Con 3 - Map Sleeve 

Small Con 4 - Not the best for running 

Small Con 4 - The straps are not the longest

They Select the Color for You? - Granite Gear ZippSack - Ultralight Pouc...


This is a review of the Granite Gear ZippSack which is an Ultralight Zippered Pouch which is both inexpensive and incredibly useful.

While it has many pros, there are a few oddities present especially when it comes to how Granite Gear offers this bag.

This is an Agenda Free Review and it begins now!

Granite Gear ZippSack - Ultralight Food Bag Review

Agenda Free Link : https://www.granitegear.com/zippsack.html

What it is : “A more convenient stuff sack. They zip wide open for easy access to all your stuff. We make them in four sizes that are perfectly suited for your clothing and other miscellaneous gear.”

Sizes - Weights - Dimensions - Prices
8L - 2.8oz - 11x7x6" - $18
12L - 3.4oz - 13x8x7" - $19
18L - 3.8oz - 15x9x8" - $21
25L - 4.3oz - 15x9x8" - $23

This is the 12L bag, I paid $13 for it during a sale.

Colors :
I’ll be honest, I don’t know for certain what colors that are available and that’s because you don’t get to choose the color when ordering this product. This might be a dealbreaker for many….

There is a green, blue, and blue….these I have seen but there could be other colors.

Materials :
210D Nylon
No Name Zippers

From the Company :
Square shape fits and stacks great in your pack
Zippered opening allows faster access and security when closed
Large haul loops for grabbing and hanging
Assorted colors for color coding your gear, They come in Blue, Red.
Designed for years of use and abuse. Accept no substitutes!

Versions :
There is a lighter weight version available called the Air Zippsack - it was only available in purpose and is more expensive.

How I use it :
While you could use these bags for all sorts of purposes, when I saw this on the GG web site it stood out to me as an excellent ultralight food storage bag and I was right, that has been a great use for it.

Review Pros
:
Very good quality
Good materials - durable
Very good price
12L size is excellent for a multi day adventure - easily holds 3 days worth of meals, snacks and coffee. Plus trash and a bear hang kit.
Grab handles at both ends
Zipper is smooth and there is a good zipper pull BUT….

Review Cons :
Going to the cons, there is a flap that goes over the zipper and you will find that it gets in the way of opening and closing this bag. The solution is to fold the flap back when you plan to access this bag; that will allow for the zip to be used without any issues.

The Biggest con is that you can’t select the color which is really, really weird and this applies to any site where you can purchase these bags. I have no idea why GG does this as they really are shooting themselves in the foot here; the site doesn’t even show green an option…what if I received a purple bag….that just wouldn’t work for me.

It’s a gamble….what color are you going to get if you order one?

Who knows.

Summary :
Ultimately I like this bag, for the purpose that I use it for it rocks!
Throw all of your food and snacks in here, include a bag for trash and you are good to go.

If needed, you can also add a liner to keep everything dry during a good rain event, plus a bear hang kit and there is plenty of space left over.

These can make excellent gear storage bags, clothing bags, fire kits and so on. You can also use this for storage when bike packing,

These bags are inexpensive, can be used for a number of different purposes - I gambled on this and the color is ok….I can live with it especially when you consider that I paid only $13 for this bag during a sale.

Tasmanian Tiger 3 Piece Mesh Pocket Set Kit Bags

Agenda Free Link : https://tasmaniantigerusa.com/product.php?id=30

Price : $16

Materials :
YKK zippers
Bug Beater Mesh
T-Cover Tex - that is a lightweight waterproof polyester that is usually used with stuff bags and rain covers
Plastic clips

Sizes :
Sm: 3.75 x 5.75in | 9.5 x 14.5cm
Md: 9.5 x 7.5in | 24 x 19cm
Lg: 13.5 x 9.5in | 34.5 x 24cm

Weights : 2.8oz for the 3 bags
Sm: 0.7oz | 20g
Md: 0.9oz | 25g
Lg: 1.25oz | 35g

Review Pros :

Very good quality

Excellent materials

Very fair price

Colored coded zippers so you can easily identify the bags and their contents.

Incredibly lightweight

Have been very durable so far with my testing - after roughly 4 months of use

Clips on each bag

Bags are see through so you can see the contents

Smooth zippers

Versatile - I’ve used these pouches for all sort of purposes including hiking, backpacking, photography and even biking.

The bottoms of the bags feature gussets so it is possible that they stand up; it depends on what you pack in the bags though whether or not that is possible though.

Great for organizing your gear

Review Cons :
No zipper pulls

Because these are mesh bags one will need to be gentler with these than with some other bags. Speaking of which, TT makes other pouches who are stronger and I will be reviewing those soon.

Summary :

For the money, these Pouches from TT offer a really good ratio of quality, durability, and versatility.

TT is a company that I am beginning to explore and while testing these I have been testing some other gear bags and even a backpack.

So far I am very impressed with what I’m seeing here and everything that I have heard from my viewers has been very positive.

Going back to the bags, there are plenty of storage bag options on the market today, I have reviewed many and these are just as good in many ways...these are also less expensive than many that I have reviewed

Thumbs up

Best Chest Rig for the Money? Helikon-Tex Numbat Chest Pack



Support TOGR with Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TOGR

Today I'm reviewing the Helikon-Tex Numbat Chest Pack;
is it the best Chest Rig on the Market Today?

….

Agenda Free Link : https://www.helikon-tex.com/en_usd/tb-nmb-cd-chest-pack-numbat.html

Price : Retail price is $65 – That’s what I paid on Amazon.  When I looked at the cost last night, I couldn’t find them for this price as the sellers there were offering these for $75 plus shipping.  $55.25 on the Helikon-Tex web site.

Weight : 17.28oz

Dimensions :

19.5 X 28 X 6 cm / 7.68 X 11 X 2.36 in

Colors : Numerous Colors – 9 variations (Shadow Gray)

Part of the Helikon-Tex Bushcraft Line;

FEATURES

Made of 500D Cordura® - YKK zippers

Two elastic pockets on front

Made of laminate, compatible with MOLLE/PALS mounting points on front and bottom

Elastic cord on bottom

Internal organizer

Internal velour panel, compatible with VIS

Detachable organizer with map pocket

Up to 90 degree opening angle

Minimalistic, comfortable harness with mesh panel on back

Back covered with 3d mesh

Pros :

Excellent quality – top notch materials

Excellent zipper pulls – easily opens

Very adaptable – lots of pockets and is user adjustable

Can be used easily with backpacks

Comfortable - The shoulder harness is excellent with no issues with rubbing or even moving around and causing issues.

Easy to use and open

Easy to put on and take off – TIP : undo one buckle and throw it over your shoulder and then buckle it in.  I’ve seen people try to put it on in other ways – talk about awkward.

Can hold a lot - Great size, not too bulky.

Two front stretchy pockets

Impressively water resistant

Excellent solution for Concealed Carry

You can easily attach to the pack and even to the straps

Opens in the form of a tray

The main compartment has a velcro loop back panel to attach your own pouches or dividers

Stretchy material allows for additional stuffing.

Shock cord on the bottom so you can attach addition items such as a rolled up poncho

Middle of the road design – it doesn’t scream tactical which can be a good thing as you can carry this in town or on the trail.

Strap keepers on all for points.

Buckles at each corner so you can easily put it on or take it off no matter what your dominate side is

Cons :

Map sleeve (aka admin pouch) took me a while to remove; it is nice that the carrier is included but I tend not to need it often so I have taken it out.  My preference would be simply stow it in side without attaching it so you can take it out and view it as needed.

With the map sleeve is fairly small for serious navigation but does feature lots of pockets – can be locked to the back of the rig

Will you sweat while wearing this?  Yes!  You do have ventilated padding on the back of the pouch but if you are pushing hard enough, there will be some moisture build up.

Features laser cut MOLLE; I’m not the biggest fan as I like strap based more.  Yes this looks more modern but it’s not as ridged which can be a negative.  It certainly doesn’t feel as robust as traditional MOLLE

Can take some work to adjust to go over larger jackets/layers

Summary :

I purchased this numerous months ago and I have no problem recommending it to those who are interested in such a carry system.  It’s a high quality, versatile system which you can easily adapt to your needs.

This chest rig is excellent for just about any sort of outdoor adventure that you are to go out on; hiking, backpacking, fishing, kayaking, law enforcement, military, Motocross, etc; whatever you do, it'll work for you.

I personally use this rig in all sorts of situations; it’s great for a day hike with all of the smaller items that you need quick access to –

I often wear this for filming purposes as I can throw batteries, lens cleaning kits, my GoPro and even a small tripod.

For Bushcraft, it’s excellent; you can mount a knife to the straps, throw in your gloves, add a saw, ferro rod, compass, flashlight and so on.

This is an excellent alternative to a Hill People Chest rig and in fact, I personally like it better than my Hill People setup and it is less expensive.

Modular Sleep System Molle II Sleep System Carrier




This channel is Agenda Free and is fully supported by the viewers.
Support TOGR with Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TOGR

Want to Attach the Modular Sleep System to any backpack?  This is the Molle II Sleep System Carrier and it makes that possible!



Link : eBay and just about any military surplus provider; they are very common.

Price : Around $25 is very common

Weight : 1.4lbs

NSN : 8465-01-465-2124

Measurements : 15” x10” x 9" Approx. 1500 Cubic Inches (25.5L)

Materials : water-resistant Cordura nylon

Made by SDS

Versions : Can be found in multiple camo patterns including woodland which you see here.

Compatible : Works with the MOLLE II system as well as other military packs such as the Alice pack.

Features D-Rings so you can attached a shoulder strap to if you desire to carry it.

Was designed to fit the MSS; You will have to compress the hell out of it but it will in fact fit.



I see online that the term Molle II seems to confused people as they think that this means that it is Molle/pals compatible which it is not.  It was designed to fit with the Molle II rucksack.

Wht I like about this is that you can strap this to just about anything with a little ingenuity.  Molle II, Alice, ILBE, Eberlestock pack and so on.  Something to keep in mind is that it doesn’t have to be pretty, it just has to work.  I’ve seen some rig up their packs so that they have two of these attached for when there is a need to carry large amounts of gear.

Big enough for just about anything; large sleep systems or even combination of shelter and sleep system.  Hammock and sleeping bag, tent and bag, tarp and bag

I often hear complaints when it comes to attaching these to backpacks because you have to remove the buckles; that is par for the course so if you wish to use this system, you will likely have to do remove the buckles, feed the strap and then reattach.  It’s not that big of a deal.

Osprey Packs UL Packing Cube Set - Kit Bag Review



This channel is Agenda Free and is fully supported by the viewers.
Support TOGR with Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TOGR

Today Luke is reviewing the Osprey Packs UL Packing Cube Set!



Link : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06VVVMYC6

Weight : 2.3oz for all three bags

Price : $38

Colors : Shadow Grey which has a hint of green to it and a neon green which they call electric lime

In most cases you will see these bags being used with traveling and while they work great for that purpose, they also work exceptionally well for hiking, backpacking, and so on.

40D Nylon Ripstop
YKK zippers

Created with travel and off road adventure in mind, the Ultralight Packing Cube Set from Osprey are designed to keep adventure packing simple. Created with a rectangular shape for efficient packing, zippered top access pockets and webbed grab handles, the pack set is ready for your next adventure. – Weight of all three bags :

Size small: 1 Litre/15g
Medium: 2L/20g
large: 5L/30g

Kit bags are a great way to keep your gear organized within your backpack; you can have a power kit, fire kit, clothing bag and so on.


Cons :

The only real con for these bags is the cost; $38

that’s Kifaru pricing but the quality is good, the warranty is the best in the busy and these bags are very unfunctional without adding any real weight to your pack.

The Osprey web site continues with the theme of odd and inaccurate information.  For this product the site didn’t include any product specs, and it claimed that a selling point was that the zippers secure the contents.  Yeah osprey, I guess the zippers do secure the contents….thanks for letting us know.

Vanquest FTIM 6x9 Gen 2 Maximizer - Review



This channel is Agenda Free and is fully supported by the viewers.
Support TOGR with Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TOGR

Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/theoutdoorgearreview/

Today Luke is reviewing the Vanquest FTIM 6x9 Gen 2 Maximizer.
Good? Bad? Worth the cost?
Find out now!

Also, what was that noise at the end of the video?



Link : https://www.vanquest.com/ftim-6x9-gen-2-fast-totally-integrated-maximizer/
Cost : $35
Weight : 6.5oz
Size : 6x9

Colors : Black, Coyote, Gray (red on the way in march)

FTIM 6X9 (Gen-2) New Features: (1) 29 elastic webbing slots; (2) Gear shelf bottom to support vertical items; (3) Hypalon zipper pull tabs and Spartan zipper pulls; (4) 500-D CORDURA coated with Durable Water Repellent (DWR); (5) Movable/removable 2 position key fob.

The re-designed Fast Totally Integrated Maximizer™ FTIM-6X9 (Gen-2) is an evolved organizer that offers lightning-fast pull-down access and gear-taming organization. It is a hybrid of our signature PPM/EDCM Maximizer™ organizers, and the popular FATPack medical pouches.

We enhanced the zipper function to be as smooth as possible, include two Spartan Zipper Pulls, redesigned the front slip pocket to be easier to access and updated the front hook and loop field to seamlessly flow with the bag. The back MOLLE attachment now uses less nylon webbing for weight savings without losing any compatibility to MOLLE/PALS webbing.

With maximizer staggered/offset elastic loops, 2 included anchor wraps, two internal large slip pockets, two 1” paracord attachment loops with keeper, and 29 vertical and horizontal elastic loops, every slot/pocket in the FTIM is designed to keep every piece of EDC gear the perfect spot! The main compartment bottom shelf also helps retain small gear and prevents accidental drops.

A sturdy grab handle and user-selectable FASTab system lets you quickly unzip the #8 YKK lockable zippers.With one instinctive pull, the FTIM's contents are at the ready. Loop ID panel, exterior slip pocket, and MOLLE/PALS side panels allow expansion of gear carried.

You can attach the pouch onto any MOLLE/PALS surface with MOLLE Sticks (#99MS5X4*); or convert it for hook-and-loop attachment using the MOHL-Air adapter panel (#017700*); or use our 1" UNIVERSAL STRAP (#012001*) to carry it around your shoulder.

Net Weight: 6.5 oz | 184 gram

Internal Dimension: 9” (H) x 6.5” (W) x 2” (D)

One external and two internal storage pockets with 29 elastic webbing slots

Staggered and off-set stitching on elastic webbing reduces unusable space

Grab handle eases hand carry and removing from pockets

Internal 5.5” keychain fob and 1” paracord attachment loop

1.75” (H) x 3” (W) ID/Morale patch loop panel on front

MOLLE/PALS webbing on sides / rear for modular attachment

Compatible with MOLLE Sticks and MOHL Adapter Panel for loop panel attachment

Materials: 500-D Military grade Cordura® fabric with DWR (Durable Water Repellent) for all weather performance.

Subdued Hi-visibility, lightweight & moisture resistant 210-D Ripstop nylon interior.

Durable & abrasion resistant RC-Class locking YKK® #8 zippers, reversed for protection.

Spartan zipper pulls and Hypalon zipper tabs for easy closure

High tensile strength nylon webbings and binding tapes

Finished with high tensile strength bonded nylon thread

Pros :

Excellent quality

Improved zippers – easier to run

Tons of potential organizing.

Will blow your mind when it comes to how much these can hold.

Versatile – I have friend who takes this pouch and connects another pouch with PALS connections and weaves them together and it’s a great way to have a unified system of organizing.

Cons :

Still require MOLLE Sticks to attach to MOLLE and PALS which require an additional $14. I’ve personally never cared for those and would prefer traditional connections. The good news is that the pouch if desired to be carried on the outside can be attached via grimlocs and they work very well.

Expensive – plan and simple but the quality justifies the price and is in-line with similar products
