I've always been a Ziploc bag guy, myself. Thin, light weight, waterproof, inexpensive. The only drawback I can think of is that by the time I get the phone out it has already gone to voicemail and I need to call back.
Lately I've seen a bunch of 'road wallets' and jersey pocket bags on the market. Syncros...Sticky Pods...those recycled inner tube things...Blackburn's VIP series...Timbuk2...a bunch of hipster and home-sewn brands...LeZyne...Cannondale...Genuine Innovations...BM Works...it seems like everyone and his brother-in-law is selling their version of a ride wallet, jersey stash bag or whatever the cool kids are calling it this week. There's even some stupid Caleefornya outfit palming off some uber classy high-end hipster leather jersey wallet...yeah, that will hold up well to rain, sweat and Phil Wood lubricants.
Are they any improvement over the reliable old kitchen freezer grade Ziploc baggie?
So what are you using? Benefits? Pro's and con's? I'm carrying the phone, a 6.3" long mini-pump, a few dead presidents, the car keys and a small Park Tool mini-tool in the jersey pocket.
And before anyone brings it up, to Hell with Rule #31 and people that follow 'the rules'.
