Questions about Maxpedition Cap Compact Admin Pouch

Can someone post some pictures of the inside? Possibly along with a review explaining how it’s laid out.

Answer: Maxpedition web site has good pictures of inside and outside from all angles.

Has anyone thrown a j frame into this puppy yet?

Answer: No

Is this waterproof?

Answer: No. Not waterproof, water resistant. If you submerge it, whatever is inside is getting wet.

Is the front design (squares) useful for something ? Or just for "the looks" ?

Answer: The squares are access for Molle connection either to something larger or to attach something externally. The squares proper are just access to feed through straps for attachment.

Answer: The front is 2 wide x 3 tall of molle webbing. You can attach another small pouch or item to it. The black squares are the fabric underneath showing through.

Answer: Both, I use this as a LEO and use the front squares that your referring to keeps pens

What material are the d-rings? Would it be best to buy a shoulder strap with metal or plastic clips/hooks to go with this pouch?

Answer: The D-rings are made of plastic. Recommend plastic hardware on a shoulder strap for this pouch.

Answer: Plastic..and plastic.

Answer: They are a polymer or plastic. I have a 1" wide shoulder strap with plastic hooks for mine. Works great!

Answer: The D rings are plastic

Anybody tried attaching the cap to the veldspar? if so, how did it workout?

Brite green bags

Would laptop power supply fit with cords?

Answer: This truly depends on the size of your power supply. The main compartment will fit something about 1" thick (and 3.5" wide x 5" tall) with no problem. If the cord (with prongs) can be folded (like many PC laptop power supplies), it should fit fine. A Mac Powerbook brick will fit no problem, however I do not believe the longer AC extension would fit (due to the cable's thickness which makes it hard to wrap in tight figure eight.)

Answer: It depends on the size of your power supply. We were able to fit a 4 inch long power brick and cord in the CAP pouch without a problem, however, some of the larger bricks might not fit.

Answer: Not unless it's a small power supply. The brick I have for mine certainly doesn't fit.

Product reviews of Maxpedition Cap Compact Admin Pouch

Richard Seligson : eh

does not open wide enough.

MGK : Great little gear bag for daily outings

Great little gear bag for daily outings, I use the two inch carry strap and this turns into a very compact little cross body sling.
...however the zippers will bind if a solid object is put anywhere near the sides. A wider offset between zipper and immediate storage would probably solve this but only a minor nuisance.

Alalyani : Search for long time and this CAP What i want

I think it is the best EDC pouch

c0c0timb0 : Maxpedition è una garanzia.

Ottimo in tutto. Peccato per i semi anellini di plastica che si posizionano di 90 gradi di lato quando tiri per aprire la cerniera. Materiale comunque eccellente.

CK : Five Stars

Great durable product as usual.

Sean C : Five Stars

Very nice. I would for sure purchase again.

Decamandan : but I'd certainly made of high quality materials and excellent construction.

This pouch was a bit smaller than I was expecting, but I'd certainly made of high quality materials and excellent construction.

R. L. Starkey : Small, but spacious enough.

I bought it as a small pack to take hunting, specifically to clip to my tree stand to carry things like grunt calls, battery pack, spare flash light, spare knife, small emergency supplies, etc. For that purpose it's great. Once hunting season is over it'll probably take over light duty first aid.

Gabriel L. : Gabriel

Muy bueno este coche, personalmente lo he usado para utillaje multimedia y conectores, todo cabe, es acolchado y muy robusto

CK : Five Stars

Great durable product as usual.

Victor M. : Genial! Gran capacidad!

Es una bolsa con bastante capacidad, ahora es parte de mi EDC. Cabe hasta la batería de emergencia, realmente la recomiendo. El material es de la mejor calidad.

MGK : Great little gear bag for daily outings

John : I was worried the molle on the front panel would be weak or of poor quality but was much stronger than anticipated

Very well built. I use this as an AEMT supply kit in my bunker pants. I was worried the molle on the front panel would be weak or of poor quality but was much stronger than anticipated.

CK : Five Stars

Great durable product as usual.

MGK : Great little gear bag for daily outings

giovanni : comodissima ed utilissima

consigliatissima per chi come me ha sempre qualcosa tra chiavi e cellulari etc da portare con se e non vuole troppo ingombro. attaccata alla cinta con gli attacchi molle è super comoda, non da fastidio e da facile accesso al contenuto

RYANsTOYS : Another great offering from Maxpedition

Absolutely the best construction. Maxpedition upped their game with the design.

ttony : Good , water resistant

Can't fit a camera lens

Olivier : Excellente Sacoche

Achetée en solde, livraison ultra rapide.
La sacoche respire la qualité, est plutôt compacte, je m'en sert tout les jours pour mes papiers, clef etc...
le système molle est pratique si on souhaite l'attacher a un sac.
Attention par contre, la sacoche est livré sans la sangle si on veut la porter en bandoulière, on peut acheter celle de Maxpeditions (15-20€) ou comme moi la récupérer sur une autre sacoche

Kentucky Jack : you know how good their stuff is

It's Maxpedition......you know how good their stuff is.

boris : Top quality

Amazing

Amazon Customer : Perfect for those upside-down moments

Bought another to replace my 4 yr old CAP.
Only to find that the pocket on the front compartment was sewn on the wrong way!
Perfect for holding items in when you're upside down bungy jumping perhaps.
What happened Maxpedition?
Where is the inspection QC?
You used to make quality equipment but a LOT has changed.
This only affirms others' reviews on your recent products and assures that this will be the last maxpedition I will ever buy..

magil : zipper blown on delivery

Going back to amazon. Zipper blown on delivery - it will not close / self-heal. I don't think the quality of this new line from Maxpedition is anywhere close to the "legacy" line they still make. Folks, there is a reason it's called "legacy" - it's because it works and this high-tech, lightweight new AGR line doesn't.

bella : Excelente Calidad

El tamaño indicado como indican en la descripción, muy buena calidad sin ningúna falla de fabric

Carlos M : Tough pouch

Very nice and compact design. Robust as usual Maxpedition products. Highly recommended.

Amazon Customer : Perfect for those upside-down moments

MarshChristopher : Amazing like my colossus

Amazing like my colossus. However when purchasing, do not forget to buy a shoulder strap. As it is not included

Rafael : Excelente calidad

Muy satisfecho producto de muy alta calidad.

TechMan : It's Maxpedition.....Nuff said

It's Maxpedition! They know how to make these kinds of things. Do yourself a favor, and check it out!!!

c0c0timb0 : Maxpedition è una garanzia.

Donald R. Poling : Goo but not great. Still delivers better than any other company out there.

First off, I have been buying Maxpedition for over 10 years so if you are like me and expecting the same tank like build of their old stock, this isn't it.
The design, considering this is their first foray into "Tacticool" verses "Tactical", they did a better job than most in the overall design and function but their is a few things that could use improving.

THE GOOD:
Nice low profile, I use this everyday as an EDC on my belt and it sits very close to your body.
Higher quality than any other waist pack on the market.
Decent zippers and smartly organized interior.
Does not scream TACTICAL.
Only has two pockets which minimizes having to fumble through multiple openings.
Molle clips included with bag are awesome. Easy on easy off and almost as sturdy as Malice clips.
Molle webbing on the back is complete unlike their other waistpacks they make that had a big space in the middle which minimizes function.
Can set gap in molle straps just large enough for your belt which minimizes vertical shifting since web platform is solid all the way down.

THE BAD:
Nylon is not as heavy a weave as their earlier gen stuff which gives it less form when empty and floppier on opening.
Zipper pulls are horrible, they get intertwined when bouncing around on your waist, I replace mine with paracord pulls.
Zippers are very close together which minimizes tactile memory so you have to look what you are opening.
Both compartments are zippered. Would have preferred a flapped front pocket (like the M-5) for easier access to cell phone.
Side D-rings interfere with zipper function, I cut mine off.
Handle is too close which makes it useless when you fill the bag, I cut mine off.

All in all this is a nice bag but if you are used to the old heavy nylon they used to produce, you will not like this bag. It is what it is, a very compact, lightweight minimalist EDC bag that sits nice and close to your body. With a few modifications, I learned to like it more than I initially did.
I like it, but I don't love it. Old school heavier nylon and less bells and whistles like the carry handle and it would be perfect.

Victor M. : Genial! Gran capacidad!

Es una bolsa con bastante capacidad, ahora es parte de mi EDC. Cabe hasta la batería de emergencia, realmente la recomiendo. El material es de la mejor calidad.

Erich Swoboda : Great product that they stand behind

I like that my replacement came this time with the Mollie straps. The defective one had missing straps that i could never get sent to me.

Nunya : Really disappointed

Maxpedition quality control should have really picked up on this before it even reached a retailer. Missed nearly an inch of stitching on the seam.

I'm finding myself needing to carry more stuff daily as I get older, so decided to get myself a man bag. Splashed out on one of these as it looks cool, and Maxpeditions reputation for quality is second to none. Not in this case.

Sadly it's easier for me to have this repaired than go through the hassle of returning it.

I'd have been a very happy customer, the bag is just what I needed, but I feel I have a factory second at full price.

Mike benjamin : This is wonderful I love this little pouch and I know you ...

This is wonderful I love this little pouch and I know you will too if you love quality you to will love this one.

Yeoh Wei Yee : Great EDC pouch

One of the great EDC pouches. Double ups as my simple first aid items as well as my tools.

bella : Excelente Calidad

El tamaño indicado como indican en la descripción, muy buena calidad sin ningúna falla de fabric

Ulises : Calidad

Excelente producto, la calidad que tiene en la construcción y materiales se ve que las hacen para aguantar.

RooKies : Very Good Admin Pouch

Excellent additional pouch to go along with any Maxpedition backpack

Rachel & Jay : Surprisingly roomy

I’m surprised how much stuff I was able to fit in this. My only wish is that they had medic red color available.

Victor M. : Genial! Gran capacidad!

Es una bolsa con bastante capacidad, ahora es parte de mi EDC. Cabe hasta la batería de emergencia, realmente la recomiendo. El material es de la mejor calidad.

mattpearson : The best EDC pouch you will ever own...

I was already a big fan of Maxpedition pouches. From what they now call the 'legacy range', I have a couple of the larger beefy ones to keep stuff together in my vehicle and an EDC one in black which I have used for years and has kept all of my essentials in one place. Two reasons for this, firstly because they are easy to get to and you know where they are, and secondly because you can move them from bag a to bag b, in seconds, rather than having to unpack and repack bags. The legacy series are great, tough and almost indestructible and with great water proofing. Inside organisation works really well with elastic loops and pockets to get your stuff under control.

But I decided to upgrade to the CAP as this is part of the Maxpedition AGR (advanced gear range) and I wanted to see what all of the fuss was about. I didn't honestly think that Maxpedition could make anything but very small improvements to their existing pouches, but I was very wrong about that. The CAP is streets ahead of its older version in so many ways. Let's look at my top 2.

1: Organisation.
The CAP has two compartments, so two sets of dual zippers. The pouch does not open fully in clamshell style as the original does, but the two compartments immediately gives you even more options for organisation. I didn't think I would need two compartments on my EDC pouch until I had them, and now I am a convert. In terms of space, I am not sure how Maxpedition did it, but all of the stuff from my legacy pouch went into the CAP and then there was room to spare. Given they are almost identical in height and width, and the depth of the full CAP was the same as the legacy one (I measured it), I was not sure how this was possible. But it fits more stuff and than it a big bonus. My current kit is shown in the photos above (minus a few items like a torch which is on charge) and you can see that the pouch seems about half empty. Maxpedition are using a new light coloured fabric inside which genuinely does make it easier to see your stuff, particularly in low light situations.

2: Looks
The looks of the original EDC pouch were functional. I never really worried about aesthetics and function trumps fancy design any day. But the new CAP looks sleeker and just more polished than the old one. The use of two new materials on the CAP does it with the 500d ripstop nylon giving it a nice sleek look and the ATLAS system (a laser cut PALS system) on the front of the bag looking great too. Here is where Maxpedition have tweaked their original design and made some excellent improvements. The old pouches had a very shallow mesh pocket on the front, maybe enough to keep a pack of tissues or a cloth, but not much else. Then there was a square of velcro for a morale patch. Both of these were not that useful to be honest, so the sleek look of the ATLAS system won me over. I didn't plan on using the PALS to attach anything on the outside of the pouch, although I can see that I might attach two pouches together and then pass a strap through the D rings (another new addition) to make a small carrying pack. The CAP comes with the maxpedition tacties included which is an excellent move on their part as you have everything you need to attach it to another bag. The zip pulls are now moulded plastic rather than paracord loops, and that is also a great addition as your finger just fits in really easily. The zips are YKK and get smoother with use (they are stiff to start with) and are very strong so you can apply force to open the bag if you are in a hurry without fear of breaking them.

This is not a cheap pouch, I think Maxpedition make the most expensive stuff in this 'edc pouch' category, but the cost is well worth it. If you are going to put stuff in this you use everyday then the ease of use and the time you will save not looking for 'lost' stuff will justify the cost. The other thing is that this will last and last and last, so you only have to buy it once and it is not going to let you down. Maxpedition build quality is the best and the price reflects it.
