Custom Leathercraft CLC Work Gear PB1543 17" Molded Base Multi-Compartment Technician's Tool Bag

This bag has it all. Plenty of pockets for keeping small hand tools organized. The zip up side pockets make it easy to find things but also keeps your tools from falling out or getting caught on things. The material is all very sturdy, it feels like this bag will survive many years of daily use. It has a nice solid base to keep the bag dry and prevent the bottom from wearing out; the zippers are heavy duty as well. I easily fit around 40 pounds of tools in this bag. I have one minor dislike - there is an excess of small pockets that can only fit something the size of a screwdriver, I would have preferred more medium and large size pockets.

My husband carries tons of tools to work everyday. This has made a difference for him. The 54 pockets were perfect for his needs. He did say he wished the side pockets were larger like his old one, but he fit everything fine lol. The biggest problem with the old bag was the soft bottom. So, this molded bottom works great! Holding his 20- 30 lbs of tools that feels like 100 is somehow easier with the hard bottom! Lol He had the largest CLC bag with 50 pockets #1539 since jan 2021. The bottom started slouching and the side zippers started failing due to the bottom giving out later the same year. He used it, despite falling over from soft bottom and weight, broken zippers, a few small tears & replaced the strap, until dec 2023 when I bought him this one. He says he already loves it just from the fact it doesn't fall over all the Time. So far so good! Its only been a month so hopfully it holds up from the daily grind of the working tech :)

Had clc bag, similar design. Used it everyday as main bag for years and it still works great. But this is the upgrade. 17” but holds as much as 19” and better organized. Rigid sides and molded bottom maintain shape which translates to better access. Outside pockets work great, although i wish there was one larger exterior pocket as opposed to many of the same size. This is ultimately irrelevant though and I understand why they didn’t. Home run with this bag.

The quality is here but the ability to store Klein or other large handle screwdrivers is not there. It has taken a lot of time to stretch the nylon to make it reasonably usable. Internal storage compartment leaves a lot to be desired when comparing against other competition on the market. I paid 110 and feel like I got ripped off a little.

Great quality bag lots of pockets lots of space
