This interesting take on a no flap mag pouch was designed by DownEast Inc. and is being distributed by ITW Military Products. The main idea is to hold 1, 30 round NATO magazine securely with no flaps or straps. The core design is 2 pieces of high-impact resistant polymer that are snapped together at the bottom.

The original FASTmag created a unique flapless 30 round NATO magazine holding option, but as in all things, there was room for improvement. The latest Gen2 version clearly listened to user feedback and is a dramatic improvement.

The Volta is a simple, but useful little pouch where the main idea is to hold the specialized plastic battery holders. You get one clear and one smoke BATUCA battery holders that can hold 4 CR123, AA, or AAA batteries in each holder for a total of 8. The color difference allows one to separate used and fresh batteries.
5.11 has recently entered the nylon pouch market and I'll have to say most gear snobs offhand will be unimpressed. The gear is by no means deluxe, however I want to make sure people know it is also far from crap. The sewing and quality control is excellent. If I were to give a simple quality scale there is: airsoft crap at the bottom, 5.11 nylon in the middle, and high end deluxe gear at the top. Rather than trying to reinvent the wheel, the 5.11 stradegy was to take proven simple designs and offer them affordably. I think they totally succeed and the end result is gear that is safe to use in a tactical environment, yet won't blow the budget. The general feel seems lighter duty than coated 1000D cordura, however the main material they use is still 1000D nylon based. There is no attempt at overseas manufacture secrecy and "Made in Vietnam" labels are easily visible in the pouches.

This lil guy is a solid admin design spawned as a frankenstein of the sheath pouch, barnacle, and clip-on phone holster.
MAXPEDITION New Foliage color: MCAP
Maxpedition now carries Foliage Green color options on some of their products. This way users can still look Army Strong when deployed, but doesn't have the high-profile look of ACU/UCP when integrating back with the civies. Here are some quick pictures so you can see where the tone lies on the ACU scale. It appears for at least the MCAP they use a new ACU color matched snazzy Maxpedition logo.

MAXPEDITION Wallets / ID Carriers:
DIM: 4.5" x 3"
Super streamlined wallet for those who have exactly what they need and nothing more. Inside there is a clear vinyl (diffused) area for ID and 2 slots on the other side. Typically one will be used for cards and the other for money. Money must be folded to fit. Exterior has a slot pocket on the back good for quick access to cards or money, but less secure. Good for when you want a non-bulge low-profile wallet.
DIM: 4.5" x 3" x 0.75" thick
Similar to the Micro wallet, but has more depth in the money slot pocket. Inside there is a clear vinyl (diffused) area for ID and 2 slots on the other side. The larger of the pockets can hold up to 15 business cards or a nice wad o cash. I don't have it to test, but slim cell phones like the Motorola Razr are claimed to fit in this pocket as well. Like the Micro, the exterior has a slot pocket, but the Urban also includes a webbing strap with velcro connection to secure the wallet when packed full. The Urban works well as a slim wallet, but has more room to expand when required.
