†Yet we called the customer service line twice and never spoke with a live person (once, we stayed on hold for 30 minutes before giving up and ending the call).
Leatherology allows only a 30-day return window and only for unused gear, which isn’t ideal for a product that costs $85 to $180. But the leather was too soft, and it was easy to scratch and scuff during normal use.
#MICROSEVEN SMARTTHINGS ZIP#
We liked that both bags have zip pockets, and the clamshell design was ideal for finding small items hiding at the bottom of the bag. Both sizes were great for splitting the storage of our tech gear and personal hygiene items. The Leatherology Clamshell Makeup Bag is sold in two sizes (medium and large) or as a set. But the zipper broke during testing, making the bag virtually impossible to use.
#MICROSEVEN SMARTTHINGS FULL#
It’s small enough to carry with one hand, and is flexible and durable enough to cram full with gear without fear of it tearing. The Chiceco Handy Makeup Pouch offers better privacy than our pick from The Container Store because it’s made of 100D Oxford nylon and not micro mesh. And the padded chamber absorbed leaking water, which means that it could retain the stinky odors of other spilled liquids over time. But the main compartment isn’t big enough to carry most of the accessories on our list. The top is a traditional makeup bag, and the bottom unzips horizontally to store brushes, tablet pens, and skinny cable cords. The BUBM cord and cosmetic organizer is a two-way makeup and brush bag that’s convertible to store tech gear as well. It’s also not waterproof, so a spilled soda or leaking lotion bottle would damage its contents. But it couldn’t hold our bulkier items without permanently deforming the polyester bag. The Muji Double Fastener Case (medium) was great for storing the small gear on our list. We also found that the larger bags (13¾ by 10½ inches and 11 by 8¼ inches) are so big that they’re as bad as just leaving things loose in your backpack or purse to begin with. But in our tests, the seams weren’t stitched cleanly and the bags leaked water. The five bags in the Modern Bethel Travel Pouch Set are covered in vinyl, so they’re waterproof. The zippers also stuck and some broke during our tests. But the bags weren’t big enough to hold more than a single bulky item, such as a laptop charger. We liked the fun floral patterns and traditional pencil pouch shape.
The IPOW BD02 pencil pouches are sold in a set of four. Many of us also prefer pouches that are transparent because we don’t like guessing what’s stored in each bag in the set. The canvas was rougher than our panelists preferred, and most staffers found the dark colors unattractive. The trio of pouches are made of canvas, so they’re tough, and sharp nails and needle-nose pliers won’t damage them. The Custom Leathercraft 3 Multi-Purpose Clip-on Zippered Bags are better suited for your home toolbox than an everyday gadget bag.
