FAMI Deployment Tactical Waist Pack

The quality of this fanny pack, locking buckles, materials, and zippers are definity of lower quality than similiar fanny packs that cost 2 or 3 times more. The design of this pack is exceptionally well thought out with the main pocket of good size, a front flatter pocket, and 2 side pockets that are very useful. The overall usage I consider to be very versatile and functional. I gave this pack 5 stars because for the cost of less than a fast food meal, I now have a quality fanny pack that will not be subjected to a harsh environment or rigorous usage. I expect this pack to last up to 10 years of use for me. Overall, a very useful product at a very low cost.

Nice tactical waist bag. I used this on a heavy battle belt. It fits great on it and holds up well.

Everything about this is cheap. Cheap materials, cheap quality control, cheap zippers. But then again, it's priced cheaply too. It can't take abuse or harsh use, but it can still work just fine as a low-cost bag for attaching to your bike, organizing stuff in your car, and even going on light hikes. Don't pack it to bursting, and it won't burst. You could spend $50+ on a really good, durable, battle-ready pack. But sometimes, you don't need that. You just need a cheap, light-weight, light-duty pack. And that's what this is for. It's worth buying in my opinion, as long as you don't expect more of it than it can do.

I love this bag. Not 1000D, but still well tough enough for most uses. Perfect size for easy storage. Very versatile, you can put anything in it you like. Great price for what you get. Very lightweight, but still tough. It doesn't come with a shoulder strap, but one can easily be added. This bag can also be added to a tactical backpack.

I bought this pack a few years ago, and recently have begun using it as a front pack or handlebar bag for my bicycle! The amount of loops and fixture points on it makes it very easy to securely mount to my handlebars, and through the use of a few extra velcro straps, the bag is held very securely in place, even on bumpy roads. The internal organization is great for holding my phone, keys, wallet, and even some not so compact tools. While some purpose built bike packing bags of a similar function can run upwards of $75, this $15 pack makes an exceptional and unique handlebar bag. The 4 compartments allow for very easy organization, while the multitude of rear fixture points allow for easy mounting to the handlebars. The bag is low enough to have a stem mounted bike computer/phone mount run on top of, and the main compartment zipper is far enough forward to not be obstructed when one of these units is in place. This feels like a purpose built bike packing bag, but for a fraction of the cost! Amazing!

I finally started using this bag after my last one started to fall apart (after a few years). This one lasted 2 weeks before one of the side pouch zippers broke. Not cool bro. I couldn't return the bag because I waited too long before I started using the bag.

I like the smaller size and all the options. The bag seems well made with good zippers.

I've been testing this bag in lieu of a backpack on mountain bike rides - It's been working great! It carries a hydration bladder (with some persuasion), my keys and wallet, and various trailside repair tools. However, on literally the third ride with it, one of the straps is already halfway ripped off. I expected this, and it's still a good bag! If I need to buy a bag for whatever reason, I usually go for the cheap ones on Amazon. They usually have similar materials and designs to bags that are double or triple the prices. I do know, that while they may look identical, I'm getting something that's probably going to fall apart when any amount of stress is placed on it. If you're planning on not stuffing this bag with heavy things and bouncing it around violently, you'll probably be fine and it won't start falling apart. However, if you plan to use this bag for outdoor recreation - Invest in an awl. I'm now going to pivot this review into an advertisement for sewing awls. If you're like me and like cheaping out on bags, you're going to want to invest in a sewing awl. You do NOT need to know how to sew and you do NOT need to be crafty to use one! The most popular one is the Speedy Stitcher but there are tons of others. If you take 5 minutes to learn how to use it (Youtube), you can repair and strengthen seams and straps that are falling apart. Inevitably, you're going to cheap out on a bag, have a strap start falling off, and then either ask for a replacement, or throw it away and never buy a cheap bag again. Either way - what a waste of a bag! With an awl, you can instead take a few minutes to stitch some super durable thread to repair that strap, and end up using that bag for years.
