Jueachy Drop Leg Bag for Men Tactical Metal Detecting Thigh Pack with Water Bottle Pouch

I spend lots of time in the garage, as well as hiking, taking photos, and occasionally I go metal detecting so thought a drop leg bag might come in handy. After some research I settled on the Jueachy Multifunctional Drop Leg Waist Bag.I ordered the Coyote Tan which turned out to be more green than tan, which I am fine with. First impressions is the bag has a quality feel to it and looks exactly as it does in the seller's pictures. The nylon material was thick with nice stitching and the straps look good and appear heavy duty. The Velcro used on some of the pockets also appears to be stitched on well and functions as it should.The drop leg bag is also a lot more comfortable to wear than I imagined. I am 5'10" with a 33" waist and the drop leg fits perfectly once the straps are adjusted. Note: I adjusted the removable leg strap all the way out for it to fit me. This strap may not fit someone with larger sized legs, but simple strap like this are easily found, made, or it can simply be removed.As for functionality, normally I wear a shop apron when building things in the garage. However as the apron (w/ tools, supplies) hangs in the front along these items get in the way often. With the drop leg bag the items I am carrying are off to the side so no tools are in the way and I am still able to access my front pockets.And with the drop leg bag hanging on the side I no longer have to take off my tool apron to take a restroom break. And when you’re an old man like me taking frequent breaks that makes life just a little bit nicer.Another nice feature about this bag is the detachable water bottle carrier that is attached using a clip. The pouch is the exact right size for a standard 16.9 oz water bottle and has a draw sting pouch and pull over clasping cover to hold the water bottle in place. The cover for the water bottle has a relief in it so you can keep the water bottle in the pouch and still drink from it.There is also a strap with a snap on the back of the water bottle pouch that you can use to secure it to the main belt on the side opposite the pack for better weight distribution. Or you can remove and use the water bottle holder all by itself.As I mentioned earlier one of my many hobbies is metal detecting. To be honest I didn't even think that I would use this bag for detecting, but after reading some positive comments I tried it on the drop leg bag and it works great for this purpose! I can get a good swing of the detector with no interference and my supplies and storage compartments for treasures (and trash) are easily accessible. I can also easily bend down to dig and the bag does not get in my way.Overall I am very happy with my Jueachy Multifunctional Drop Leg Waist Bag. I didn't feel it necessary to include a lot of close up pictures of the bag with this review as the seller did a pretty good with descriptive pictures. I will leave you with the empty weight and some measurements of the 8 pockets, nylon straps, and water bottle holder. (The measurements are approximate as some pockets extend or are not symmetrical.Empty Weight: 1 lb 6.4 ozMeasurements: (Height - Width - Depth)• Main Compartment - H: 8" W: 6" D: 4"• Main Flap Compartment - H: 5 3/4" W: 7" D: 1/4"• Front Zippered Compartment - H: 6" W: 4" D: 1"• Front Open Pooch - H: 5 1/2 " W: 3 1/2" D: 1/2"• Larger Side Compartment - H: 4" W: 3 1/2" D: 1 3/4"• Smaller Side Compartment - H: 4" W: 3" D: 1 1/4"• Top Sunglasses Compartment - H: 2" W: 6" D: 2"• Water Bottle Holder - H: 6 1/2" W: 2 3/4" D: 2"• Main Belt Strap: 1 1/2"• Leg Strap: 1”• Various Other Straps: 3/4"

The bag is cool, and is surprisingly comfortable. Very grateful for the hip pad. It looks great and has many pockets for a bunch of little things. Perfect slots for keys, wallet, phone, glasses, snacks, etc. The water bottle holder can hold a little Gatorade bottle perfectly and be cinched from the top to help insulate the bottle a bit. Will try other sizes in the future, but definitely cannot be much wider than your average disposable plastic water bottle. For taller ones there is a hole at the top flap for the lid top to poke through, or for the cinch catch to sit neatly. Materials feel durable for quick, sharp accidents, but would certainly fray quickly if rubbed against rough surfaces often. Love that the main compartment has a cinched top as well, will be great for more active hikes and climbing. So far, looks good. Will add additions if anything comes up after more use.For those who are having problems with the leg strap, I did as well. The strap length cinch (between the buckles) needs to be pulled as far as you can get it to fully extend the strap. Takes a bit of tugging but will eventually budge, but at full length it is much harder to adjust. After a bit of walking, the leg strap feels like it may cause rubbing if worn with shorts vs heavier work pants for an extended time, even with skin covered (though this strap is not required and can be removed easily, the bag does not move much even then).

I bought this to bring with me, when my son and I go on Trail Life (a Christian version of Boyscouts) campouts. With my son being around 9 years old, I end up being the pack mule, carrying water bottles, snacks, coats, sunscreen, that really cool stick he found and just has to bring home. The first trip or two I tried to carry everything in my pockets, but quickly gave up trying to do that. This pack is great as it is not as bulky as a backpack, but still has space to carry everything we need. I will say the water bottle holder that comes with it is pretty useless, as it is to small for most reusable water-bottles, but would be about the right size for a disposable plastic water-bottle. I think it will also work well to carry a firearm for solo backpacking trips, as it will keep the firearm hidden and out of sight, but still relatively easily accessible.

This was purchased mainly for metal detecting, the bonus is a perfect side pocket for a pinpionter. It's got pockets galore. The main pocket has a nylon cinch bag top to keep the elements out. Lots of adjustment room and the thing is comfortable. Great having a leg strap so it doesn't bob around when moving. Better than expected quality of fabric, stitching, nylon straps and quick release buckles. I would have paid more knowing the quality, but I found it as a Black Friday deal to boot. Highly recommend this.
