Vertx Everyday Fanny Pack vs. SOPC Fanny Pack

In this video I review the Lena Every Day Carry Fanny pack from Vertx and compare it to the Vertx SOCP Fanny pack.

    In case people wonder, Glock 19 with TLR-1 in a kydex holster fits perfectly in the Every Day fanny. A glock 17 with TLR-1 fits, but the grip is a little harder to get out.

    @@Mrderekcf I tested a Glock 17 with a TLR-1 and it does fit, however it was definitely tighter than the 19. The draw will be more obstructed by the zipper and the bag, but it does fit. I don't have an optic to test that. With the Glock 17 I had to adjust the angle to get the grip to fully fit inside the bag.

    Just from a security standpoint, having the buckle on the front aught to be a 5 star feature. Buckle on the back is a great way for someone to be able to pop it off you and run.

    Great video. I’ve watched it a few times. I was using the SOCP fanny. Found it to be not always convenient. Just a little on the large size. As a result of this video ordered the Every Day Fanny Pack. Holds everything I need for daily bopping around. It is with me 95% of the time. Has become pretty much a man purse. Haha! I don’t miss the few extra (unecessary) items that I have no room for. Love this bag! Thanks for the great video!

Pairing this up with the 945 industries kydex velcro holster should be a winner. I think the 945 industries QAPS bag is a little tight on the front pocket for an iPhone 15 Pro.

    So glad I ran into your channel when I did! So in your opinion, what fanny pack bag would you recommend for me: I will carry a Glock 19 with a rmr and X300, multi tool/kņive ,chapstick, fruit snacks and (maybe) the smallest oc spray I can find. I want to keep it minimal and use it more as an emergency use bag rather than a high use bag. Thank you!

    Because you have the X300, you are going to need the SOPC. I do not think it would fit in the Everyday Pack. If you look at how my G19 fits, it’s just barely there and I only have the TLR, the X300 sticks out another inch or two right? If so, won’t fit. Plus if your using more as an emergency bag, I don’t know that I would try and cram it all in the small one, get the bigger one, have a little extra space where it’s not over full and bursting the zippers 😉 plus if you wanted to throw in a TQ or another snack you can 😉

    @@christianpratt9728 you might be able to pull that off… If you want, my honest opinion, I would see if Amazon has both of them with free returns, figure out which one’s gonna fit your frame better (you’re a good 50 pounds lighter than I am, so jealous lol). Depending on how much they cost from Amazon, you could either then return both of them and purchase the one that fit your frame better from another supplier, who does not cost as much, or if they were fairly priced keep the one that you wanted and just return the other. I think my only concern is that X300. I have a TLR one, but I did not try it in the long walks pack. I just don’t think from what I recall that it is going to fit.

    I have both of those 😂 just haven’t had time to review them compared to the fanny pack. I typically dislike sling bags because when I’m getting in and out of the car, you have to take it on and off, or when your going places it’s inconvenient to sit with it. Fanny packs are nice cause they just stay on all the time.
