Ostin tämän sen vuoksi, että tässä on A4 karttatasku, toisin kuin vähän pienemmistä Retki-karttataskuissa, joissa karttaa joutuu taittelemaan. Kävi kuitenkin ilmi, että tästä puuttuu oikeanpuolimmaisen sisätaskun päällinen tasku, johon saisi muistivihon näppärästi siten, että se roikkuu taskusta alas. Kun karttataskun on tarkoitus olla ikään kuin toimisto, jossa vihkoon voisi tehdä nopeasti merkintöjä heti kun karttataskun avaa, tämä olisi aika kiva juttu. Tässä saa kyllä pienen vihon (esim. vedenpitävän Modestone-vihon) roikkumaan vetoketjutaskusta, mutta ei ole ihan sen taskun ajatuksen mukaista ja roikkuu sitten kynien päällä. Toivottavasti tämä puute korjataan tulevaisuudessa. Lisäksi tässä ei ole kivaa velcroa nimitarralle, kuten Retki-karttataskussa. Selkämyksen pieni kynälenkkikin olisi kiva. Tämä ei myöskään ole ihan yhtä tukeva kuin Retki-karttatasku, jolloin itse kartta on vähemmän suorana. Eli tuo iso A4-karttatasku on tässä ison ja oikeastaan ainoa plussa.

Lekan nollaviis-housujen kanssa kätevä. Tuli kokeiltua intin ja inttistoren housujenkin kanssa, mutta niissäpä ei ollut riittävän syviä taskuja (hyvänä puolena Lekan housuihin mahtuu kassitkin sisälle). Mutta asiaan. Omistan myös Retki-taskun, mutta käytän kuitenkin tätä. Tämän saa aika kevyesti auki ja sinne menee kaikki tärkeä, mitä inttihommissa tarttee. Simppeli ja toimii, ei pahaa sanottavaa.

Better then I hoped it would be. Ample space inside for stowing two extra maps, compass, whiteboard marker, pencil, notebook, ... . Ten times better then the one I used for the past twenty years.

Good quality, PAY ATTENTION TO THE SIZE ! .... A4
Completely screwed up for the maps I use. My mistake, but the large "window" on the back measures 8"X11.5"
Otherwise a nice product which will accommodate plenty of mapping implements.

I basically use it as my oversized wallet. Fits money clips, pens, car chargers etc, still fits in front pockets of most jackets such as Belgian army jacket, and German hunting jacket. Plastic holds up in low temps: have bought map cases before only to have them shatter in -20, this one seems to be holding up well.

I looked at ordering this on the back of reading a review on Kitpest.co.uk – had to wait a bit as it was out of stock so set up an email alert and twiddled my thumbs.

Received the email telling me it was back in stock and put in my order – three days later it arrived – not bad for an international order.

On first glance, it’s well made, compact without losing functionality and I do love the fact the map is on the outside and fits A4 Maps as I usually print out what I need from the OS Website.

Primarily I’ll be using this on Navigation exercises / Fieldcraft Weekends with the Army Cadet Force and the occasional DofE and Ten Tors Training, the inner slip pockets are ideal for our ‘Red Book’ and other bits of Cadet Related paperwork (accident forms etc).

Already had comments from other Instructors asking about it, hell, even my missus wants one now!
Better make sure my name is on it or it may go walkabout.

Thanks for a great piece of kit – it may not be the most ally kit you’ll ever buy (cam a map case ever be ally?) but it does what it needs to and does it well.

Keep up the good work

Cheers
Thor Elsson
