How to Build a Tech Pouch⌗

A tech pouch is one of the most useful accessories you can carry. It keeps all of your cables, chargers, and adapters neatly organized in one place instead of scattered across your bag or desk. Whether you’re traveling, commuting, or just keeping your workspace tidy, a good pouch saves time and frustration.

Step 1: Think About Your Needs⌗

Before filling your pouch, consider why you’re using it. A pouch for daily commuting looks different from one built for international travel.

Common essentials include:

• HDMI cable (for presentations or connecting to monitors)
• USB-C, Lightning, or Micro-USB cables
• A phone charger or laptop power brick
• Converters and dongles

If you carry a lot of gear, choose a larger pouch so everything fits without cramming.

Step 2: Bring Extras Where It Matters⌗

It’s tempting to pack just one of each cable, but think about the devices you use most often. If your laptop, phone, and tablet all rely on USB-C, don’t just bring one cable. Pack at least two so you’re not stuck if one fails or if you need to charge multiple devices.

Step 3: Choose the Right Charging Brick⌗

Instead of carrying several small power adapters, go for one high-quality charging brick with multiple ports. A single, well-designed charger saves space and weight while powering all your devices.

Step 4: Keep It Organized⌗

Don’t throw everything into one giant pouch — that just recreates the “tangled mess” problem inside a different bag. Instead:

• Use smaller organizers or zip pouches inside the main pouch.
• Separate cables from chargers and dongles.
• Wrap cables neatly with velcro ties or bands.

This way, everything has its place and is easy to grab when you need it.

Why It Matters⌗

A well-built tech pouch keeps all your essentials in one place, so you don’t waste time digging around or risk leaving something behind. When everything is packed neatly, you’ll always know where your gear is — and it won’t be spread out all over the place.
