The Elements Tech Case Mini is a near perfect compact satchel to carry my personal belongings when I go shopping.
The 8 slots/pockets allow good organization of my stuff. The 2 elastic pockets fits my ARK Bifold Cash Wallet and Zip Coin Wallet perfectly. And the outer zippered pocket has enough space to easily contain my iPhone 15 Pro Max. I like that I don’t have to fight to get my phone out in a hurry.
The interior sports a reflective orange liner that makes it easy to find whatever I’ve stashed inside. Many of my other non-Alpaka satchels have a black or dull gray liner, and can be a challenge to locate things. I sometimes have to dump the contents when looking for black items.
I will not buy satchels without YKK zippers as they are almost always the first thing to fail. Thankfully, Alpaka understands this and uses quality zippers that should last a long time.
The one disappointment for me is the exterior. The diagonal diamond lines are faint and not very visible unfortunately.
All in all, I’ve been very impressed by this quality brand and will likely purchase more items in the coming years.
