Design and features
The Picofire Pocket Pouch is a sturdy little guy, designed to withstand shocks. The 500D nylon structure, YKK zipper and the entire reinforced stitching form a waterproof, abrasion-resistant and tear-resistant pouch. Even the zipper head has a rubber sheet. This is a good build. I also like that they added a little Velcro on the front so you can customize it with your own patch.
The pouch is larger than a purse, but smaller than a special storage bag that can be put in a bag. Here are some photos of the pouch compared to my wallet for reference. Yes…I have an idea about Star Wars. do not judge me.
I found that the Roaring Fire Picofire Pocket Pouch is a bit big and can be placed in the front pocket with jeans. It works better as a substitute for wallets in jacket pockets or cargo pockets. You can store it in the bag of your choice at any time and keep these pockets unblocked.
Speaking of pockets…you will find a lot of pockets in this little guy. The zipper pocket on the front is sized to fit coins, cards or a few keys.
You will also find a matching pocket on the back. This is a great place for a work badge.
There is also a small fabric tag on the outside, which you can use to attach the pouch to a lanyard, carabiner or chain (just like children). I like to clip it to the clip on my messenger bag.
The YKK zipper wraps around the perimeter of the bag, allowing you to open it like a book, putting all these extra organizer components inside. There are many options to customize how you carry it.
The right side panel of the Roaring Fire Picofire Pocket Pouch has three card pockets, each card pocket can hold multiple cards, and a zipper mesh pocket for storing loose items. There are some coins and a thumb drive in this pocket.
There is an extra pocket behind these front pockets, which is the same height as the organizer and can hold larger flat items. I have my vaccination card here for reference. You can definitely store a small notebook here like a Field Notes notebook.
The left side of the bag contains 2 layers of elastic rings, which are used to place tools and so on. The former group is a smaller loop. I have a pocket knife, a small multi-function tool and a pen, which I attach here for reference.
You have a second set of wider loops behind the first set for something slightly larger. For example, it may be a small flashlight or other tools. This is a good addition, because you can change different tools and gadgets to meet your needs, or if you want to hide the charging cable here. There is also a long bag on the right side, which can hold more things. I hid my cash and some receipts there.
The Roaring Fire Picofire pocket bag also has a sturdy key clip that can be attached to the inside side of the bag. I don’t think those bulky remote keys will work here, but a ring with a few keys will work well. I also like that you can zip the pouch and hang the key like this:
I like the flexibility this design provides for EDC fans. All in all, I counted 3 zipper pockets, 3 card pockets, 6 elastic loops, 2 deep pockets and a key chain. There are lots of flexible spaces for playing!
I found that the Roaring Fire Picofire Pocket Pouch is a bit too bulky for use as a carry-on daily wallet, but I am a person with a front pocket. My personal favorite use case is as a replacement wallet in my messenger bag. It still has my cash, cards, and extra items such as my pocket knife, but it fits my small messenger bag so I don’t mess up my pockets. As a mini tool organizer, it is also great.
what do I like
- Difficult build
- There are many spaces and places to organize small things
- Flexible design serves many use cases
Areas for improvement
- Unless you have a big pocket (or like a big wallet), it’s a bit too thick to replace a regular wallet
Final thoughts
The Roaring Fire Picofire Pocket Pouch fits nicely into my EDC settings. I like a flexible (and easy to access) design for multiple use cases. It can handle some bigger things that your wallet can’t handle, but it won’t be so big that it becomes a burden to carry. The building is very good. You will find yourself discovering multiple ways to incorporate this little guy into your daily toolkit.
