I picked up a couple of items from John at Original S.O.E. Gear today and wanted to give them a quick review. First item is a pouch for my Garmin 60CSx GPS. From the web site; http://www.originalsoegear.com/index.html they are made to fit any model gps just let them know when you order. Very well put together pouch. Double and triple stitching all over, the material is not too thick like some of the generic pouches you see at all the tactical stores, you know the one's where the material won't even flex. I requested a fastex buckle and it has enough room on the strap to pad the inside or store something slightly larger. When closed it is very secure. The pocket on the outside is long enough for two double AA batteries and of course four CR123's fit. The inside has an insert for an additional data card. You can also request different types of attachment as in molle or belt pass through. I am very pleased with this.

The second item was a multi-tool pouch. Made just as well as the GPS pouch. Once again I requested a fastex buckle. When asking other dealers about a pouch like this I was told just use a pistol mag pouch. I tried it and the multi-tool always wiggled out. This one was made for the multi-tool, it will not fall out. I would like to thank John for these two items. He was great to deal with.
