What do you guys recommend? I have used the leather one, from Baileys for years. Never had a problem. Just wondering if there is another I should try... Thanks!

Let me see if I read this right, you own one that has paid for itself, and never had any issues with it, and you want to try another?
I am confused
you could put them in your scooby doo lunch box and use a well worn shoe lace for a shoulder strap .... sweet lol jk i dont recall seeing a vast selection of wedge pouches in any catalogs ,hows your sewing skills ... time to build a better wedge trap ???
I got the ABH007 Multi Pocket Nylon Wedge Holster ($10) from Baileys.
It's sewn poorly. The nylon material is cheap/flimsy and has no support for holding longer tools (ie stiffer material would be better).
The loop that your belt goes thru isn't adjustable and I had to remove the buckle on my Labonville's to get it to thread on because the loop is too small to just put the buckle/belt thru.
IMHO it's not worth $3 much less three times that.
I don't know which one to recommend, but I do know one not to recommend.
I'd like to find one from stiffer leather or cordura that would actually have some structure to it, hold a few 8's/10" wedges and a scrench. May have to make one.

The shop ordered me this one, not sure where they got it, but it was cheap and works well. The spot the tape is on didn't work for me, too low. Other than that, I like it. Don't really even notice it - Hope you all had a good week, enjoy the weekend - Sam

Last I knew, Bob's can make you whatever you want. . . Besides what they have listed. Their leather work is pretty dang tight, and pretty good prices.
Word tell was, you could make a drawing and send/email it to them with dimensions, and they'd make it up for ya.
Or send them a posterboard template. . .
Bob's Leather - Tool belts, pouches and accessories
I lived in a set of bags for many years, and it's easy to separate the wheat from the chaff pretty dang quick.
+1, my cheapo BucketBoss cordura bags have been used for all of 2 months and are already starting to get that fuzzy knap at the corners
Remind me to show you my Occidental Cordura's sometime. . . Held together with subfloor adhesive, wire and caulk!
They've served me well for many years though.
IMHO, nothing beats good leather bags, and the only reason I went with fabric, was they were cheaper at the time.
No reason to bust out 2 hundy on new leather bags now, with the building industry in the dumps.
