Do you remember that episode of Friends when Joey got a “man purse”? I tried to find it on YouTube but the copyright police have removed most episodes of the series. Well, except this clip from said episode that was dubbed into Spanish – so, enjoy, amigos!

You wouldn’t entirely be blamed for thinking of this episode when taking a look at our latest find, the CLC Electrician’s Tool Pouch with Plastic Tray. Its long shoulder strap and slim design could be mistaken for something a little less manly.

HomeFixated sponsor, FastCap, is a favorite of ours for all kinds of reasons – none of which have to do with them advertising on the site (well, that is a reason to like them, of course – but our love goes beyond the almighty dollar).
