Hands free is good, hands restricted or carrying bags or adjusting straps is bad.

Pockets are close to your body, tend not to get lost, can be low profile.

That's a fair point, but I've never lost a bag after an incident in school where I left a trainer bag on the school bus and got the biggest bollocking of my life!!! I've learned from that so am pretty good with them now. Skean Dhude makes a good point that if I get injured the bag will probably get left. That's a great reason to have the little pouch thing that NR suggested. SOLD! I'm getting one.

I am a city dweller that lives in a semi rural area. I have always lived in the suburbs and spent most of my time surrounded by concrete. So yes, I guess I am a city slicker. I've actually not noticed the multiple pocketed tactical clothing. I'm not hugely into fashionable dress. Give me baggy jeans, a tshirt, and a hoody, and I'm good to go (unless I'm in a suit for work). My clothing is massively MMA based or gym based. So there's not much of a tactical clothing niche in that market.

In fairness, there probably is a massive amount out there that has been clearly coming into the stores, but because it's never been an item of clothing I would have a need for, I must have ignored it.

Next time I'm out and about, I'll have a look and see what is about.
