I've heard way to many great thinking msg about the bag. I say it in REI a while ago and thought it was a brilliant idea. But some critics say it is too small. Anyone have a word to add?

I tried one on in size large.  The bag itself is very long but the actual chalk-holding component is only about the bottom half of the bag.  This means that half of the size/depth is wasted, and also that you have to reach down extra far to access the chalk, which I strongly disliked.

Instead, go with a Tufa chalk bag; it is my favorite.  Solid materials, good construction, good ergonomics, great capacity.

I have a blue one. It holds chalk. I can reach in and get chalk on my hands with this chalk bag. I am all the more prestigious for owning an Arc'teryx chalk bag. 

It's a light, small, overpriced chalk bag.
