ProCase Travel Electronic Organizer Cord Pouch Review

The ProCase Travel Electronic Organizer Cord Pouch has a lengthy name, but to sum it up, you can think of it simply as a tech burrito. It’s soft-structured, like a tortilla, with many varying pockets you can fill with ingredients like memory cards, thumb drives, cables, adapters, and dongles.

Unfortunately, the analogy falls apart once you realize that not every tech accessory is as small as the ingredients of a burrito. You can’t mince, slice, or dice a wall charger, for example, and that can lead to a misshapen pouch once you try to wrap up and close it. Deal-breaker? You can find out in the review below.

External Components

Don’t be fooled by the big header above; the outside of the ProCase Travel Electronic Organizer Cord Pouch is as simple as it gets. You won’t find anything fancy like a handle, loops, extra pockets, or a water bottle pocket (and why would you?). Instead, it’s just this very subtle heathered gray nylon fabric. ProCase says it’s heavy-duty, durable, and water-resistant, though these are properties of nylon we’ve already come to expect.

As for accents, you get a tastefully applied ProCase logo on the corner. And yes, you can argue that the piping along the edges counts as trim. However, for the most part, the ProCase Travel Electronic Organizer Cord Pouch is simple, and we like it that way.

The only real external feature here is the stretchy paracord holding the whole pouch together. It’s threaded through two metal grommets to anchor it to the front of the pouch and encircles the burrito-like roll. A toggle cinch lets you tighten or loosen the paracord as needed depending on how packed it is—this part is crucial as you’ll see how varied the pockets are inside.

Inside The Pouch

Once the ProCase Travel Electronic Organizer Cord Pouch is unrolled, you’ll see pretty much every kind of pocket you’d want in a tech kit. There are four sections, each with a designated type of pocket.

The outer sections have zippered pockets to store the tiniest of your accessories. Think of really small ones, like microSD cards, or ones you simply should not lose, like an Apple AirTag or a bunch of SIM cards. Our only nitpick is that the right zippered pocket’s lone zipper hangs past the edge of the pouch. It’s not a huge deal, but it can snag on loose clothing in a tightly-packed bag. Otherwise, the pockets have a modest but sufficient volume, and the unbranded zippers have worked flawlessly throughout testing, so there are no complaints in that department either.

Next are the elasticated liner pockets on the right. Both are surprisingly roomy enough to fit something as chunky as the SnapWireless PowerBase Go, so you can realistically fit even a MacBook charger if you want to. We also like how both pockets face inward because their contents won’t just spill out of the sides if they’re shaken loose.

Last but not least are the three pairs of elastic loops and three corresponding pockets at their ends. The loops are each designed to fit thin cables like USB connectors or a pair of wired earphones. It’s a bit tedious to get individual cables through both loops. We found the trick is to put the cable in one loop, then insert its loose end into the other loop.

The tiny pockets at the ends are slots for thumb drives and dongles. Yes, there’s plenty of room for tiny accessories like those in the zippered pockets. However, these slots let you find them quickly without sorting through other items.

Unfortunately, you can’t fit something as beefy as a C13 or C14 AC power cord. It’s disheartening, given that this pouch has “cord” in its name, but there you have it. Even if it had big enough pockets to accommodate thick cords like that, you really want to minimize bulk with the ProCase Travel Electronic Organizer Cord Pouch.

Perhaps it’s down to personal preference, but the pouch already struggles to close neatly with the fully packed-out kit shown above that includes the SnapWireless PowerBase Go.. On the other hand, the paracord closure ensures that the pouch stays closed, no matter how much you pack or how bulky your gear is. Sure, you may not be able to fold the four sections on top of each other, but it’s better than not being able to close it at all.

One caveat with the ProCase Travel Electronic Organizer Cord Pouch is its large footprint when open. It takes up a ton of space when you lay it on the table. In contrast, a tech pouch like the Bellroy Desk Caddy or Aer Slim Pouch uses much less real estate. On the other hand, it lays all of your tech accessories neatly once it’s rolled out, so you’ll spend less time hunting for the right adapter when the time comes.
