If they're really intent on keeping that spy pocket, they need to just make a new bag that's exactly the same, but completely replace the phone pocket with just a pocket, w/top zip. Literally just another pocket... Almost perfect Vertx. ALMOST. Also, add the same buckle as from the long walk fanny pack. Or just use a Fidlock.
I’m stoked / irritated. I do really love my SOCP, but the front pocket was always a total joke. 😤I have a regular sized iPhone 14 Pro, and it will NOT fit in there with a slim case on. For how big the bag is, it’s really annoying. It’s so much wasted space. The zipper seems like a great improvement, but did they increase the size of the pocket at all? . There are a few seamstress / tailors around. I might honestly take this video to them and see if they could stick a zipper in my old SOCP for me. 😂 Excellent review & video! Thanks for actually going thru the pockets clearly & so we can actually see them & doing a great comparison. I feel like most review videos these days are done in caves with no lighting and they pick the darkest color bag so you can’t see shit. 🙄😐
I agree that you could’ve used the front pocket for more than a phone, however, the zipper actually makes it a legitimate pocket, which in my opinion is way better!
Just got this bag and really like it except for the phone carrier pocket. The middle compartment is great for keys, wallet, knife and small Tourniquet. CCW compartment fits extra mag and shield with holosun. Thinking about just cutting front pocket off as it feels too bulky front to back.
@@kuraku5712 I would have to reach out to Vertx…. I do cold water or warm water for all my clothes and if I needed to wash this I would just throw it in and hope for the best 😂 But joking aside, I usually spot treat with a wet cloth and haven’t had to wash the whole thing… not sure I would do that myself I would just spot treat or hand wash in the sink.
@@thewisebuyguy Thanks for the advice! I think I’ll go with spot treating and hand washing in the sink like you mentioned. Seems like the safest option!
I have not spent the money to get my hands on one of those for a comparison or contrast. I thought about sending both of them a message to see if they would sponsor me a bag… 😂

Great review. Thanks for the comparison and contrast!

Would have been nice if they put buckle on front/side on new one

I just got the od and black one!
Love that pack
Tbf you could use the front pocket for more than just a phone in the old version as well, but the zipper on the new does seem like a big improvement.

Great video. Thanks for sharing. God Bless!

Just cut the phone pocket off and the bag looks so much better. The Vertx logo is now visible and it’s not as thick now.
Very informative. Good video. Thanks.
Hello, do you have any advice and instructions for washing, such as the temperature, etc.?

Good video; Thank you!
Nice information thank you
Hey nice video.Try Helikon-tex rat ccw waist pack.
Thanks - is this bag black? Looks like a grey/green which I can’t see on the Vertx website
This one is not black. The first video I made used the black bag, this one is the smoke grey.
@@thewisebuyguy thanks, must be my location (Australia) showing limited options
great review, what pepper spray is that?
POM :)
@@thewisebuyguy thanks!
What about sheepdog or field craft survival Fanny packs?
