Muc-OffUnisex's Essentials Case

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This pouch holds my Pixel 9a, keys, credit card, electrolyte tablets perfectly. I could fit a little more in it but I don't have a need for anything else in the pouch. I have had it for a few weeks now and it is well constructed and helps keep me organized. I really like it. It's not large enough to also carry a tube, tools and my small battery pump but I did not purchase it for that purpose. I have another larger pouch to carry these.I think that the Pixel 9a is about the largest phone that would fit in this pouch. There is not much extra space.It has been sweat proof. I have not ridden in the rain with it (yet).Update: I am still happy with this pouch but it is not waterproof. When I ride in the rain or am sweating heavily during a hot and humid ride, the items in the pouch get moist. If you need to keep your things dry, you should look elsewhere.

Good size case and fits well in all rear jersey pockets. Has been holding up well. I use it to store my pump, C02s and extra SRAM battery.I also have two of the LeadOut Ride wallets, which are similar in size but more expensive. The LeadOut wallets are a bit sleeker on the outside, with smoother material; in my opinion, they look nicer. The good thing about this wallet is that since the material is rougher, it is not as prone to launch out of your jersey pocket, like the Lead Out wallet.I use the LeadOut wallet every day use, and this is specifically just for rides.

I don’t use this for a phone— it is a pain to have a phone in a zip case when you may want to snap a pic or check a map. I use this for tools instead of a saddle bag. As such it should fit typical repair tools including a tpu tube. Instead I have to strap the tube outside to the molle loop; this is okay but not ideal. Making the depth around 2” would vastly improve options and it would still fit fine in a jersey.

The media could not be loaded. I have had this product for years and can't live without it. I love to cycle and had been looking for a cycling case to keep all of the accessories I carry on a standard bike ride that would consolidate everything and keep it not only in a safe place but also one that was waterproof and repel water.After a lot of research and talking to friends I chose the Muc-Off Unisex's Essentials Case and it has never failed me. It has two pockets inside, one with a zipper, that I use to store my money, credit cards, replacement inner tubes and much more. Besides the fact that is is completely water proof I love that it is very compact, it can stretch if you are struggling to fit everything in there and it fits perfectly in the rear pocket of all of the cycling jerseys that I own.I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a durable, waterproof and easy to store cycling case. I would not change a thing.

I use the Muc Off case to hold a flat kit, which includes a 25mm tube, levers, one 16g CO2 cartridge, an inflator valve/chuck and a mini tool (as shown in the pic). I could fit a 28mm tube if I swapped out the mini tool for a smaller, more compact tool. The Muc Off case is nearly the same as the Rapha large Essentials Case, both being listed with the same dimensions (but $10 cheaper than Rapha, without any color options). The Muc Off case may only appear slightly bigger in the pics because it is unzipped, but I feel that the Rapha large Essentials Case may be 0.5mm wider, which could be because the Rapha is stretched/broken in from season-long use. This case also could be used to hold an iPhone XS (5.8" screen) with a slim case, ID, credit cards, cash, house key and a small pocket knife. I actually have a second Rapha case for this purpose, and this Muc Off case would serve the same purpose very well. A much larger phone or a significantly bulkier case would not fit. The case then fits nicely in the back pocket of my cycling jersey. I recommend a water resistant case such as these because sweat, nutrition can be easily wiped away after your ride.

I recently purchased the Muc-Off Rainproof Essentials Case with the expectation that it would serve as a reliable cycling wallet for my Samsung S23 Ultra (dimensions 6.43 x 3.07 x 0.35 inches). Unfortunately, my experience with this product has been quite disappointing, leading me to rate it only 2 stars.Misleading DimensionsThe primary reason for my dissatisfaction is the misleading dimensions advertised. The product description and photograph indicated dimensions of 10x7x2 inches, which seemed more than adequate for my phone. However, upon receiving the case, I discovered that the actual dimensions are significantly smaller, measuring only 6.40x4x1 inches. This discrepancy means that my Samsung S23 Ultra does not fit inside the case, rendering it useless for my intended purpose.Design and Build QualityDespite the size issue, the case itself is well constructed. The materials used feel durable, and the zipper operates smoothly. The rainproof feature is a nice touch, providing some peace of mind for those unexpected showers. The internal compartments are thoughtfully designed to hold various bike tools and small accessories, but the main compartment's size limitation overshadows these positives.Practicality and UsabilityFor cyclists looking to store smaller phones or other essentials, this case might still be a viable option. It fits snugly into a jersey pocket or bike bag, and the rainproof feature works as advertised. However, for anyone with a larger phone like the Samsung S23 Ultra, this product falls short. The inaccurate size description is a significant oversight that affects the overall usability of the case.ConclusionIn summary, while the Muc-Off Rainproof Essentials Case has some commendable features, the misleading dimensions are a deal-breaker for me. If you have a smaller phone or only need to carry bike tools, this case might work for you. However, if you own a larger phone, I would recommend looking for an alternative that accurately fits your device. The disappointment of not being able to use the case for its intended purpose is why I can only give it 2 stars.
