Keep in mind that you have to go through two zippers to get to anything you keep in this zippered pocket, so less frequently-used accessories will be ideal here. Then above it is a zippered mesh pocket of a similar size that works well for even smaller accessories (SD cards, batteries, flash drives, etc.) to keep them from free-floating around. Next to this band is an elastic pouch that we’ve found to be a great size for a more minimal wallet, like the Bellroy Note Sleeve we’ve been testing. That way, you always have one handy when you need to jot something down before you forget. On one side, you have an elastic band where you can secure a full-size pen. Aer Cable Kit 2 Front Compartment Left Side Inside, you have a few different spots to store a few different types of gear. Once unzipped, this front compartment opens up fully-clamshell, so you can get gear in and out without an issue. That said, we have found this iteration’s organization to be a bit more convenient, and you might, too. If you were a fan of the original Cable Kit’s capacity then you’ll be delighted to know that the Cable Kit 2 offers a whole extra 0.1L of space! We know, it’s not much of a difference. We would’ve preferred this handle be at the top of the pouch, but it’s likely that if it were it would impede the compartment zippers-so we understand why it is where it is. You’ll just want to make sure that all the compartments are zippered when you are carrying from this handle, as it’ll be upside down and your stuff can easily fall out if not secured. It sits at the bottom and we’ve found it to be comfortable enough for grabbing the pouch out of a pack or the car and for carrying it on quicker trips. We want to point out the handle on this pouch before we get inside its multiple compartments. The subsequent noise when you’re moving or carrying the pouch around can get annoying fast, especially in a more serious environment, to give you a heads up.
One thing we will say is that while the zipper pulls are easy to grab, they’re also pretty jangly. We’re happy to report no issues with opening and closing pockets or compartments (even around corners). The YKK zippers on the Cable Kit 2 have been performing well throughout testing. It takes up a fair amount of space if you’re storing it inside your pack which is something to be aware of-but if you’re a fan of its functionality, you might not mind. The only downside here that we also experienced with Aer’s original Cable Kit is that this material does add some bulk to the pouch, both in size and weight. Basically, we’re saying you won’t have to worry about this case getting caught in a drizzle, but you’ll want to take cover in a downpour. It’s a stiff, rugged material with a water-resistant polyurethane coating that adds more to the pouch’s aesthetic than its level of protection. Like the other products in the Work Collection, this pouch is constructed with an 840D face nylon fabric and 1680D CORDURA ballistic nylon everywhere else.
AER TECH PACK REVIEW PROFESSIONAL
These subtle integrations make for a more sophisticated vibe that you’ll appreciate if you’re taking this thing out in professional settings. You’ll spot their logo on the zipper pulls as well as on a small, white-on-black tag on the side. Aer Cable Kit 2 Material and LogoĪer often opts for a more minimal approach to branding, and nothing has changed with this pouch. We’ve personally been digging it’s serious aesthetic, though your mileage may vary. At the time of this review, the Cable Kit 2 is only available in perhaps the most subtle colorway out there-Black-if you’re looking for something that’s going to blend in on your desk at home or the office. The Cable Kit 2 is part of Aer’s Work Collection which features multiple slick, functional products from daypacks, to a sling, to this pouch.
Without further ado, it’s time to get into what we think of this tech pouch after two weeks of testing! Materials & Aesthetic You can throw it in your bag or carry it on its own wherever you’re getting work done.
While this pouch can’t stream Game of Thrones, it does offer a convenient level of organization inside a strong, sturdy structure. They’re not (as far as we know), but they are making a durable, solid pouch to hold your EDT (or everyday tech). When we first heard the name “Cable Kit 2”, we had a sneaking suspicion Aer was trying to get into the 200-channel television game.
