  • Both, the Anemone and the Barnacle, are small but very versatile utility pouches from Maxpedition. They would be even more versatile if Maxpedition had provided them with a belt loop on the back.

    I have just watched several of your Maxpedition reviews, and they are incredible! You have, by far, the most thorough and well thought out review videos on these products I have ever seen. Thank you so much for your great work!

    Great review! I wish the Anemone was still being made.. I have two barnacles though.. I thought an anemone was a sea creature that attaches itself to rocks that also may have barnacles attached to it as well..

  • @StefanSchmalhaus
    @StefanSchmalhaus  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @mrmonkeyman50 Thank you! Yes, melting the ends works quite well. But I've come to use the TacTies only for attaching MOLLE items permanently; for items I frequently attach and detach I prefer the SpeedClips.

  • @tetsubo57
    @tetsubo57 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    That is what we are currently using. But they 'slouch' on my wife's narrow belt. There is a lot of slop. I think the speedclips might afford a more narrow profile and hold the pouch more closely to her body.

    Great Review! Really assisted me in broadening my choice in Add-ons for my Maxpedition Monsoon Gearslinger. I am thinking about getting the "Monkey Combat Admin Pouch" for the Back. The "Hip-Flap" will have a "Double Sheath" and (thanks to you) the Anemone. But i JUST stumbled over the "Triad Admin Pouch" which sums up the last 2 and adds an extra "document" compartment.. Mutti! lol Ich hab Keine Ahnung Dr :)

    Stefan, thanks for the review. I agree about the Tac Ties - they are hopeless, awkward to use and as you say, the ends fray with use. I owned an Anemone for a while, but when I replaced my mobile phone with a Samsung Galaxy S2, it would not fit. (I had an old Nokia clamshell phone which did fit.) Does the S2 fit inside the M2 waist pouch? I think that may be the replacement.

  • @Corsair8X
    @Corsair8X 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good comparison. I really wish they had included the pen-slots on the Barnacle. That would have made it a perfect small edc pouch. I think the Anemone is just a little too bulky for too little gain so I could not use that. Really wish the Barnacle had the pen slots.

  • @troy5690
    @troy5690 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great vid. I must have compared the barnacle and anemone for about an hour before settling on the anemone. It's a great pouch, I have it attached to my fatboy but I reckon it it makes a better waist pack than the m2, the m2 is clunky in comparison.

  • @PhinehasRex

  • @vuileasbak
    @vuileasbak 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    isnt it a drawback to use the speedclips in stead of the tacties?
    i can imagine the pouch *flopping around* with the speedclips because of the fact that only one molle strap is attached to either the bag or the pouch
    in your opinion? whats the best option when you are going for max retention putting a pouch on a bag?
    thnx in advance and greetings from holland

    If you want to fix your frayed tac ties, just hold a lighter gently in the frayed area and it will melt the frayed parts and give you a stiff edge again.

    Sounds like the wannabe surgeon from the movie Hostel... im kinda scared right now... lol jk, good video, looking to check out molle pouches for transferring essentials from my edc redrock assault to an INCH pack if full shtf calls for getting out long term. My INCH is for 4 people so cant obviously be a work bag but a lot of my edc will need to go with the INCH but if I cant take both bags I want a fast incorporation of the two. Thanks for showing me some good options.

    @REB4444 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    WAYYYY over built & bulky compared to the little amount of space available to store things. That's a common issue with Maxpedition. I have the Mini & Micro pouches which are fine with space, but these would be too little for the bulk it creates. For example, if you pack the inside by using all the pockets then you can barely fit anything in the outside panels.
