Urban Admin Pouch Helikon-Tex - Amazing pouch organisation

[@geanhitchcock1170]

i have had one since last year and its awesome the fact you can take out the medic insert for a edc pocket carry was a bonus. pencott all the way for me.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Hi Gean, I'm steadily working my way through the camo types. I think you've inspired me to make sure my next gear purchase is in Pencott. Have a great weekend

I know I'm late to the party but thanks for your excellent detailed demonstration of the pouches features. My hobby is photography & I like looking at original ways to adapt non-camera bags for unobtrusive street shooting which led me to Helikon Tex & purchasing their Essential Kit Bag 2 weeks ago. So impressed with the quality I looked at their other products & focussed in on the Admin Pouch & your video. Didn't hesitate & it arrived today, just perfect. The key solution/use for me that I spotted was being able to Molle it to the back of Essential Kit Bag, thus allowing me to carry all the little tech essentials that support a day out shooting while keeping the profile minimal. Also got the Mini Med Pouch which can be swapped into the Admin Pouch in place of the removable wallet section allowing me to easier fit thicker items like batteries. This is an absolute killer solution for my needs especially as it's so comfortable to carry and naturally hugs close to my body. Subscribed and will need to work through your other Helikon Tex videos to see if I'm missing any practical add-on opportunities to what I now have. Cheers 👍

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Hi Robin. There's no such thing as late to the party my friend 🤘 Thank you for the kind feedback. I can honestly say I've been impressed with everything I've tried from Helikon so far. They've got some great designers there making so world class gear. Sounds like a nice set up you're creating. I work in medcomms and have to attend conferences and symposia with AV crews so a decent pack with molle expandability is amazing I hope you enjoy the rest of my content. Thanks for the sub. All my best fella

[@MokuNui808]

Thank the gods you did this review! You're the only one that is in english! 😆. I was hoping they had it in shadow grey but alas no luck 😆! But the Kryptek Highlander...nice!! They should definitely sell the insert separately! It makes for a great pocket organizer!!!

[@MoorlanderEDC]

I'm hoping Helikon-Tex will send me one of everything to make some more English content. I completely get why a lot is in Polish as they're a Polish company... I only know the swear words in Polish. Fingers crossed for the separate insert sales 👍

[@troysnyder8174]

This is so sweet. Going to buy two just for the insert for my 5.11 covert 18 2.0 , bot inserts going side by side and keep both pouches one for trama pouch and other as a fire bag... Wicked review....👍👍👍👍👍

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Hi Troy, It's great to here to enjoyed my content. The inserts are 100% the hero of this content over the overall package. I'd love to hear your thoughts when they arrive my friend. Have a great week

[@florianzufuessen]

That's again a great video and a brilliant pouch. I have one for 3 years now an the insert is the best. You are right, if they sell it indepently i would buy some more. Best greetings from southern Germany.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Hi Florian. I hope you're good and safe. Thank you for the kind words... Hopefully this might give Helikon the nudge they need to sell them separately. Fingers crossed 🤞

[@florianzufuessen]

@@MoorlanderEDC Yeah Family and me are good and safe, hope you are also good and safe. Fingers crossed.

[@elizabeththompson4424]

might pair well with the Bandicoot Waist Pack as an add-on pouch yeah, that insert panel would make a good IFAK there's the Outback Line Pouch which is the same size but without all the loops & inserts inside & with MOLLE on the front

[@DarkFire515]

That looks like an amazingly versatile admin or medical pouch. Definitely going to pick one of those up.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

[@DarkFire515]

@@MoorlanderEDC Definitely! Having a small pile of the inserts would be super useful. Have a medical insert - instant IFAK pouch. Have a tool insert - instant tools pouch. The possibilities would be nearly endless.

[@KillBoyPowerHead77]

I’ve just bought this pouch. It looks great. Cheers!

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Hi HD, That's great to hear buddy. The combination with the pouch and the inner is awesome. Have a great week buddy

[@carlenian]

I have bought it just a couple of days ago. Two observations: first - any item longer than 10 cm fixed in the loops will make the insert almost impossible to close on velcro, second - when the organizational capacity of both the pouch and the insert are used fully, the whole thing becomes quite bulky and items don´t get pulled out easily. Despite that, it has been still a good buy for me.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Hi Carlenian. That's very true and something I forgot to mention in the content. You can either have the pouch full of stuff or the insert full of stuff. When they're both full it's very bulky and can be hard to close dependent on how full you make it. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the insert to be sold separately. Thank you for commenting. Have a great weekend

I'm waiting for the Coyote color to come back in stock and will be buying one of these.

You did an excellent job of going through this whole thing. Thanks again.

[@MCplicki]

How much space would it occupy in the EDC compact sling bag? Would love to use this as a small IFAK pouch but I still need a bit of space on the side and not fill up the whole main compartment.

[@highlanderes]

Looks great. Unfortunately I strongly prefer a grab handle on top and that excludes a lot of great quality pouches.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Aaaaah... Highlander... We meet at last. Although my Mother is a Moorlander, she was born a Highlander of the Clan Ross 😁 on the pouch side, I 100% agree, every pouch should have a top grab handle. It's such and easy win for manufacturers. Stay well my friend 🤜🤛

[@fafhrdkreig4739]

Great video I have been planning on getting one to use a minimal survival kit for my battle belt.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

[@TomSP9TL]

This is an awesome review! I like the size of the pouch itself. Not too small, not to large. I've looked at this pouch when I was purchasing Sere pouch. The problem with pouches and bags of similar sort is that I think there isn't a universal one. Sere could have been slightly larger, just 1-2cm extra. The problem with a standard pouch is that it is not designed to carry with a short jacket. This is where Sere pouch comes in handy with the lower belt loop mount. In another words, you would need to have 2-3 pouches, depending on how you dress up. The admin pouch perfect for when not wearing a jacket, just a t-shirt or a shirt, but it may be less comfortable when sitting in a car. I hate to move all my things everytime from one pouch to another. For me, the admin pouch would be great if it has just one extra large pocket inside. I don't care about the insert here. Maybe one day I will give it a go with the Admin pouch. Sere pouch won't fit the mini med kit, unless I take my wallet out, but that's not an option. If only the Admin pouch had an extra carry system, i.e. with a shoulder strap, this way I could carry it on top of a jacker or overcoat. This would make the pouch suit my needs.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Have you watched my Leader and Admin pouch content from Tasmanian Tiger? They're similar but are landscape rather than portrait, and fit on a belt better with a short jacket as they're not as tall. They might be a good middle ground for you. Hope that helps

[@TomSP9TL]

@@MoorlanderEDC I will have a look at them. Thnx.

[@jack.charlesc4750]

If that pouch had 2 d ring on each side and maybe just maybe a shoulder sling Eastpak the one would be obsolete ...... And helicon would make more money for sure .... a lot more on just this little bag

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Jack, I 100% agree with you. For the extra pennies it would cost companies to add two D rings, it's crazy. I've got several pouches that I'd kill to have as a smaller shoulder bag to take with me. Modularity is key and two simple D ring could triple the potential of a of a Pouch. Maybe we should starting making them... we could be millionaires by this time next year 😀 Have a great weekend my friend

I've used two black key ring loops with a different Helikon bag. Attached those to molle straps and added a shoulder strap. Works like a charm.

[@itsmedravfrom1987]

great detailed video. do you know if this would fit a knipex 150mm instead of the 125mm pliers?

Nice review and a very well thought out pouch. Impressive.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

My Mart, I hope you're doing well my friend. Yes, this a strange pouch as the insides are more valuable than the pouch itself. Fingers crossed we've got HT's attention and they'll sell the insides separately. Have a great weekend

Love that pouch! A couple of D rings to attach a shoulder strap would be a bonus. Whats the device you've got in the inner pouch that was sitting next to the plier grips, the thing with the "red circle"? Cheers

[@MoorlanderEDC]

100% agree. I feel every pouch should D rings for straps. There loads of pouches I've had that would make epic small shoulder bags. The red ring is the Slice Folding Knife. I did a piece of content on their ceramic knives a few months back. Hope you're having a great week buddy

[@prb9013]

@@MoorlanderEDC Thanks! 👍

[@Mart687]

I want to make a suggestion. I got a roll of hook and loop/velcro from a friend who did computer network installation. They use it to bundle cables. 2cm wide with hook on 1 side and loop on the other and there's like 10 meters on a roll. It's very strong and versatile and you can use it over and over. Cut strips of whatever length you need. 3 strips of 25 cm together is also 60 and just as strong. For example, my binoculars/ steiner safari 10x26 pouch has a loop to attach it to your belt. But i don't want stuff on my belt cause i wear a backpack. And i don't want the binoculars hanging around my neck all day. Easy access yes please. I would use some strips of velcro to attach it to a shoulder strap. Google for: cable organiser Velcro. It's not really expensive but this might just be the solution you are looking for.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

@@Mart687 hi Mart, love this idea my friend. I've seen smaller velcro ties, however not the larger ones. I'll Google and definitely think how I can use this in some content in the future 👍

[@Mart687]

@@MoorlanderEDC These strips of velcro are probably as strong as the biggest tyraps rated for 25kg. This also works very well with my Tasmanian Tiger Modular 45+ backpack with velco loops all around on the inside. If i don't want the bino pouch on my shoulder strap of the backpack anymore because it starts raining or whatever, I can turn these velcro strips around with the hooks outside and stick the pouch inside anywhere on a side and put the rain cover on my pack. You can bundle stuff with it. You can attach stuff on the outside of your backpack with it. It's a very versatile product and re-use it over and over. I would say it's a product between tyraps and paracord. For hiking and camping and daily life very useful. 👍

I wonder how it would work with a wallet, keys etc. I think I might give it a go one more time, i.e. test it with the things I carry everyday.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

Hey Thomas, I can't see a reason why it wouldn't work other than it's size. It's more of an off body carry even with the insert. Although larger cargo pant pockets would fix that. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with buddy
