Monarch Pouch Review: I own two of these Monarch pouches and find them to be wonderful! Like all Battle Lake products, they are tough as nails and made of the highest quality materials. The Monarch pouch is the perfect organization pouch to go into another bag to hold smaller items (phone, iPod, flashlight, knife, etc). I carry one in my Maplewood Day Pack along with an Accessory Pocket (holding checkbook, Moleskin and pen). You cannot go wrong with Battle Lake products, and especially the Monarch Pouch.
