Frequently Asked Questions
The Small Pouch measures 8″ wide × 6.5″ tall with a 1.5″ gusset, making it a versatile middle size option in the Splash-Proof® lineup. It's roomy enough for a wet bikini, a daily makeup kit, or a phone-and-wallet combo and still flat enough to slip into a beach tote or carry on its own.
The Small Pouch is made from our Splash-Proof® material that’s the next best thing to waterproof. It's water-resistant, not fully waterproof. It protects against splashes, light rain, wet swimsuits, and spills, but the zipper and seams aren't watertight, so we don't recommend submerging it. For a pouch designed to handle wet bathing suits, beach essentials, or carry-on toiletries, Splash-Proof® has you covered.
Yes! The Small Pouch was originally designed exactly for this purpose back in 2014. Toss in a damp swimsuit, zip it up and the Splash-Proof® material keeps moisture from leaking onto your dry clothes, beach towel, or the rest of your bag.
Yes! The Small Pouch is a lightweight alternative for traditional clutch and many customers use it for weddings, date nights, and beach bars. Measuring 8 inches wide, it can fit a phone, lipstick, cards, cash, and a hotel key. Spilled drink on a night out? The Splash-Proof® material wipes clean and keeps your belongings protected.
Our Splash-Proof® pouches are designed to be easy to clean. Wipe down with a damp cloth, hand wash with mild soap in the sink, or toss it in the washing machine on the delicate cycle. Always lay flat to dry, no dry cleaning or tumble drying needed.
The Small Pouch is the most versatile size in our lineup. It will fit a wet bikini or one-piece swimsuit, a TSA 3-1-1 set of travel liquids, a full daily makeup kit (foundation, mascara, lip products, small brush), a phone plus charger and AirPods, or a passport with travel cards and currency.
The Mini Pouch (6″ × 3.75″) is wallet-sized designed for cards, cash, ID, lip balm, and earbuds inside another bag. The small pouch (8″ × 6.5″ × 1.5″) is clutch-sized designed to carry on its own as a wet bikini bag or evening clutch. Choose the Mini for in-bag organization; choose the small as a standalone pouch.
The Mid Pouch (11″ × 8.5″) is significantly larger and is designed for toiletry kits, tech gear, gym clothes, or beach essentials. The Small Pouch (8″ × 6.5″ × 1.5″) is the original clutch-sized pouch designed for wet bikinis, daily makeup, or a phone-and-wallet combo. Most ALOHA Collection fans own both: Small Pouch for wet bikinis and nights out, Mid Pouch for travel or gear organization.
Our Small Pouches start at $36, and prices of special-edition and collaboration prints vary.

How to Use Your Small Pouch?
A million Ways To Use a Small Pouch
The Small Pouch is ALOHA Collection’s most versatile size for good reason. Here's how real customers use theirs:
As a Wet Bikini Bag: What the Small Pouch was originally made for. Zip up a damp swimsuit after the beach, pool, surf session, or swim lesson. The Splash-Proof® material keeps your wet belongings separated from the dry stuff in your tote.
As a Clutch for a Night Out: At 8 inches wide, the Small Pouch is the perfect size to use as a clutch. Holds phone, lipstick, cards, cash, and a hotel key and wipes clean if a glass of wine spills.
As a Daily Makeup Pouch: Fits a curated set of cosmetics: foundation, mascara, blush, two lipsticks, and a small brush. The water-resistant material keeps any broken powders, pencils and liquids from leaking out—and is easy to clean off.
As a Tech & Travel Organizer: Holds a phone, charging cable, AirPods, a passport, and travel cards. Perfect for the seat-back pocket on a flight and protects your tech from spills.
As a Kids' Snack & Essentials Bag: Pack snacks, wipes, a pacifier, or a teether. The wipe-clean material makes it easy to clean off juice spills and surprise messes, and works as a reusable storage bag inside any diaper bag.
As a Sunscreen + Beach Essentials Bag: Throw in your sunscreen, SPF lip balm, sunglasses, hair ties, a small comb. Keep everything together inside your beach tote and sand out of your stuff.
As a Cosmetics + Toiletries Carry-On Pouch: Fits a TSA 3-1-1 set of travel-size liquids with room to spare. The Splash-Proof® material means a leaky shampoo doesn't ruin your luggage.
As an Everyday Crossbody Insert: Drop the Small Pouch into a larger ALOHA Collection tote, Weekender, or Backpack and pull just the pouch out when you don't need the bigger bag.
