Evan Mar 20th 2021 These bags are the perfect size for keeping automotive tech manuals in your vehicle, and the small pocket on the front is also the perfect size for most owner/operator manuals, receipt wallets, notepads, or small forms. The elastic pen loops can be used for small tools, a tire pressure gage, and of course writing utensils. I have one for each of my vehicles and would recommend it for any person who likes to work on their own vehicle and maintain it by the book. I would give 5 stars except that design has one flaw. It's not possible to snap the flap shut when the bag is full, as with a two-volume tech manual set. This can be remedied by adding a second pair of snap-button studs about two inches bove the two studs already provided-that's what I do. This allows the flap to be securely closed whether the bag is partially or completely full. Also, if used frequently as a shoulder bag, the strap would be better if provided with a slip on pad like Rothco's "All-purpose Shoulder Strap with Removable Pad", or if the strap were wider like Rothco's "General Purpose Utility Strap". I think Rothco would do well to incorporate a second pair of snap studs in their next revision of this pattern so users can get the full use of the bag's volume, and I would recommend making note of the potential utility of this bag to off-roaders or vehicle fleet managers in descriptions.
