This handy hip caddy holds a phone and other items like pruning shears. It even has enough space for a pencil and note pad! Adjustable strap for a loose or snug fit. This is not just for gardening. Tailgate parties, day at the beach. It goes were you go! Hands free! And it even has a clip for keys. It's all that and a bag of chips!

This is a great item for gardening and shopping trips or anytime one wants to have their hands free! The pocket for the phone is padded to help protect it. You can swing your housekeys into the garden pocket after attaching them to the provided clip, to keep them extra safe. There is even an elastic band to hold a pen or pencil. This practicial little bag can be worn on the waist or hung on the shoulder.

Bought this almost seven years ago, and it's still in use today. Have used it for yard work and gardening, working on the car, as a general tool belt and even as an organizer while moving a couple of times. It has an adjustable waist strap, or one can just sling it over the shoulder, and there's a cinch that will keep your cell phone from falling out in the midst of a dense weed patch... as had happened once before I had this wonderful and handy accessory.

Must admit that I was skeptical about how long the plastic clasp and key ring snap would last, but they're never failed once, and unlike the "rugged steel hardware" on another product, they won't ever rust. The phone pocket is padded on the inside, protecting an expensive cell phone from being damaged by other sharp items you might be carrying. There's plenty of room for carrying garden scissors, snippers, pruners and much more in the larger pockets, and the rugged plastic mesh on the bottom of the pouch keeps various tools and implements well ventilated, eliminating moisture damage.

Hint: use it as an wearable organizer if you're moving to a new home or office. Those who have moved or relocated know what it's like to spend extra time looking for a misplaced marker or case cutter. This product has proven to be invaluable during a couple of moves, and has carried the cell phone along with small notepads, pens, box knives, a handful of permanent markers for labeling box contents, and more. The key ring snap was strong enough to hold a packing tape gun with a loop on its handle.

Kudos to Fiskars for designing such a rugged and versatile carrier, one that has outlasted many of the items that it has carried over the years.

Items I put into the pockets fell out if I bent from the waste. A tool belt or fanny pack would work better.....so I will try one of those next. SAVE YOUR MONEY!

I like this but wish it had more pockets. The big pocket could have been divided in two and would be more useful. As it is that pocket is big enough for a few tools (I use it for gardening) but they never feel secure in the pocket. The phone pocket is a good size.
It's sturdy and useful. Glad I got it.
