Impressions
This is one of the pouches I bought when I visited TAD Gear's brick and mortar shop here in San Francisco for the very first time.  Honestly, I think I bought it simply because it's one of the smallest MOLLE pouches I've ever seen.  It's one of those pouches you buy first and figure out a use for later.

It's perfect for keeping one key item readily accessible, and with such a small MOLLE footprint, you can really put it almost anywhere.

The only thing I'm not crazy about is TAD Gear's hook and loop attachment system.  In this small pouch, the hook and loop runs the full length of the strap (that's not the case in TAD's larger pouches) so you have to maneuver the loop part underneath your MOLLE and then get the hook section fully underneath that.  Given the strap is so short, it's not that it's hard to do - it just feels harder than it needs to be.  And like many people, I always have the nagging feeling that the hook and loop is wearing out every time I open and close it.

But it's a convenient little pouch with a dozen possible uses (as long as you think small).
 

Never been a fan of the hook and loop attachment system, but in a pouch this small, it does the job adequately.

Good for a set of keys.

The pouch has such a small MOLLE footprint that it can be attached where few other pouches can.  This is a perfect utility pouch to mount on that single strap of MOLLE that runs down the strap of your pack (in this shot, a Gerber Evader).
