The pouch's YKK AquaGuard zippers are stiff and weather resistant, while black accents appear on the zippers, pulls, and straps. Three rear loops let the reviewer attach the wrist strap, carry the pouch horizontally or vertically, or use it without straps. During a bike ride, the reviewer found horizontal crossbody carry comfortable, stable, and better positioned on the front while leaning forward.
The reviewer found the wrist strap uncomfortable because it feels wide and stiff around the wrist during use. The front pocket fits a standard iPhone or similarly sized phone, allowing access without disturbing items in the main compartment.
