Very good chest-rig. I am delighted. The size perfectly meets my expectations and can hold really a lot of things, even the larger map pouch from Wisport fits without any problem. The base price is, in my opinion, too high, so it's better to hunt for discounts.

The chest bag is really high quality. The workmanship is solid, and the carrying comfort remains at a high level even for a long time. There is enough space in the bag for all the small items you want to keep handy. The Molle surface on the front is particularly useful – it allows you to easily attach additional accessories. I personally added a Helikon pouch for a radio, and the whole setup works perfectly and looks very aesthetically pleasing.

The product is made from high-quality materials (Cordura, durable zippers), and thanks to the MOLLE system, you can easily attach additional equipment. Wearing it is comfortable even together with a backpack, as the straps do not get in the way. Additionally, it can be worn as a waist bag, which is very practical. It's also worth mentioning the RAL 7013 color :-).

The bag is truly a great purchase – solidly made, durable, and very practical. It has the perfect capacity for the essentials, and thanks to its compact size, it fits well against the body and doesn’t get in the way when worn. The color and pattern look great, and the whole product feels well-thought-out and functional. It performs flawlessly in use – I definitely recommend it!

The bag is very good, however, it has a few drawbacks: The front flap makes it difficult to access the front pocket, which makes retrieving items very inconvenient. It's only comfortable to store small, flexible things there, like latex gloves, which are easy to put in and take out. The inner zipper would be more practical if it were positioned higher – currently, if the items in the pocket are taller than the compartments below the zipper, the zipper gets stuck. Because of this, I keep this pocket open and only place equipment inside that does not stick out above the line of the zipper, so it is easy to access. At first, I planned to keep various small items there, but this can make it harder to use the opposite pockets, so it's best to use this space for just one thin item, such as a smartphone, document, or money. I would like to see two paracord loops on opposite sides of the back wall (the one with the Velcro) so I could attach carabiners – similar to how it's done in the Helikon-Tex Possum, but in this case, two loops closer to the ends, taking into account the rectangular shape of the bag. This would make better use of the dead space on the sides, which is now wasted, as opposed to the middle, where every centimeter is valuable.

The bag would be great if not for one flaw – it is very, very "thin." Putting anything thicker than a power bank inside causes it to bulge. The advantages are comfort, molle on the front, drawstring on the bottom, removable map pouch (reversible removal, no need to cut anything), comfort, the straps don't loosen on their own, and a Velcro panel inside. It would be nice if Helikon released an improved version that could fit a bit more without looking like it’s about to burst.

A very practical bag. Especially during quick hikes, when you don't want to waste time taking handy little items out of your backpack. It goes perfectly with the Raccoon Mk2 backpack.

This is already my second chest bag in color RAL 7013 from Helikon. The buckle closure works great, allowing for quick putting on and taking off. The bag seems to be solidly made. I definitely recommend this product.

Chest bag in Coyote shade from Helikon. The very comfortable fastening system with a buckle allows for quick and easy putting on and taking off. The bag gives the impression of being a high-quality product!

Mega cool bag. Additionally, it comes with a strap to wear it like a waist bag. The quality looks great. For me, it's fantastic. I recommend the product and the seller. Shipping as always was express.

This is my first bag of this type and wow. I am very satisfied. Absolutely fantastic. You can have various small items, a knife, a flashlight, or a smartphone hidden somewhere in your backpack or pockets, but here it's just perfect. Everything is here, right at hand. You can keep some extra things in your pockets, and the basic items in this bag. I am very satisfied. And the quality, as always with Helikon, is top notch.

A new version of the proven Numbat chest pack design, with the option to use it as a proper quiver. Great product for travel, EDC, or isolating the most necessary items from your backpack. The only drawback may be, although it doesn't have to be, that when the pouch is overfilled, it can be harder to get something out of the front zipped pocket. It's a 2-in-1 product, well made, at an appropriate price, and if the promotion is still on, it's almost for free. Nothing to do but get it!

A nice new version of the previously well-known chest bag model from Helikon, but bigger. This one works just as well as its predecessor, which means excellently.

Handy bag, everything is within reach and it nicely balances a loaded backpack. High quality of workmanship and materials. My first experience with a bag worn this way, and I've come to really like it.
