Custom Leathercraft1537 Multi-Compartment Tool Carrier, 30 Pocket, 13 In.

Where do I begin? This is the best tool bag that I have ever owned. It is extremely well built and I love all the pockets and ways that I can organize my stuff. Also, the price is very reasonable for what you get. I bought this for work because the bag they gave me basically had one big opening for everything and about 3 pockets. I used to have to fish for the tools I need. Not anymore, I have all of my tools organized so finding what I need is a breeze. The large pocket is nice and deep and allows me to put my drill, a multi-meter kit and an entire socket wrench kit into it with space left over. The front zipper pocket is great and I have all of my tools organized very nicely. The handles are really tough and I can tell that the stitching will not be giving out anytime soon. The over the shoulder strap is very comfy and makes carrying this, when my hands are full, super easy. It has so many outside pockets, I love it. I almost went for the larger model and I am glad that I didn't, this one has more than enough space.Before you use it, I highly recommend that you get a spray can of some water repellent for boots/shoes and spray this thing down good.I ABSOLUTELY, DEFINITELY would recommend this to everyone

The bag I ordered and received (model 1537) only has a zip out organizer panel on one side. In the photos, the bag has zip out panels on both sides, which I was expecting. Amazon used photos of the larger model 1539 on the product page for model 1537, which is misleading. Since there doesn't seem to be any actual photos of the 1537 on Amazon, I've posted a few.* They also combined the reviews for both models, without indicating which model was being reviewed and most of the reviews look to be from purchasers of model 1539.Having said that, the 1537 is a great bag, very well made and the size is just right for my needs as an average homeowner. Looking at the reviews, there are quite a few people who bought a 1539 and thought it was too big for their needs, once they received it. The 1537 holds everything I'd need for most jobs and I keep less often used tools in seperate utility bags by application (plumbing, woodworking, etc.), which works out much better than having everything in a bag the size of the 1539. I also bought a DEWALT DG5103 Small Maintenance and Electrician's Pouch for electrical stuff and it fits in the main compartment, along with a drill, socket/ratchet set and organizer box for hardware, with room to spare.*Note: The photos I posted were removed by Amazon for some reason. The other photos are probably of the larger model 1539, which is misleading. Oh well, I tried. If you want to see what 1537 actually looks like, go to the manufacturer's website.

I bought this for telecom work.In the outside zippered pocket I have 2 punch tools, a 6 in 1 screwdriver, needlenose, dikes, wand, I have the toner in one of the mesh pockets, spudger, electrical tape, it has a couple little pockets for the thinner sharpies and a pair of channel locks.On the inside I have a plano style case for consumables, a small fish tape, butt-set, a bundle of cable ties and a roll of cross connect. In addition to that, today I also have a standard inter-tel phone in there as well. That makes the inside kind of full, but there's still some room left.My wand barely fits in one of the back row pockets, but it does.It seems like the stuff fits fine, It's not 'work' getting the outside zippered pocket section closed.It's not that heavy.Each aspect seems durable.I'd say it's stable when you set it down and open the side thing - I mean it's not inclined to roll over.I wish there was a bag specific for running into a business with the standard things I need to troubleshoot a phone, when I started I used a shoe box :), then I used a toolbox, then a bigger toolbox that was heavy, then a couple different styles of bags - computer and bookbag styles, then one of those little craftsman bags that are on sale all the time nowadays - until it was see-through and the pockets all had holes in the bottoms. I've spent a bunch of time looking at the random variations of toolbags at home depot and lowes, didn't buy any because most of them seem suited for electricians vs. 'service telecom', and I wanted an 'ideal'.I'm pretty happy with this.It has a little more look of 'construction' than 'technology' but it looks professional, holds my stuff well, has extra room in it in the event I need to stuff a lot in it and carry it a long way, and it's easy to see all my things in that side pocket so hopefully that will make me more inclined to notice when my toner is missing...! I think it will.

Great bag. I am working a job that requires me to be fairly mobile on the jobsite from day to day so I bought this bag since it is smaller than my normal open top bag.It would be a plus if they made this bag so that it had both sides with a zippered covered pouch area as shown in the pictures, but the opposite side only has three pockets about 4"x4". I knew this ahead of time just pointing out what would make it a better product. The 1539 has two zippered sides but is too large for my needs.I put my carry my typical go to tools on me and my secondary tools in the outside zippered area. Main section of the bag is nice and large. Drop in a hammer, square, and 4 klein zippered pouches.Well made with nice zippers. Only have had it a week, but like most tradesman who are always seeking the best bag this one is very hard to beat for the price. Compares to a Veto LC dimensionally but does not limit you to pockets that are too small and has a bulk storage area also is half the weight.
