Hi Everyone, My son currently has the Minimed Paradigm pump and is being upgraded to a 640g. He usually wears a pump pouch around his waist but I'm having trouble finding a suitable one. I usually make his pouches but don't have the time at the moment and wondered where some of you may get your pouches from. I understand the pump clips onto clothing but with him being only 4.5, I would rather it be a bit more secure. Thank you :)

Hope you find something, when I looked for myself, all I could find was things mainly directed at women (underwear) and nothing specifically for kids or men. If you find something please post it on here for all to see :)
I did get a pump pouch for using abroad (it keeps your insulin and pump cool) and that was from funky pumpers.

Thank you. We don't want it hidden but i'll have a look.
Also, my son like them to be colourful but I'm sure I can ask:)

Hypos, rude people, ignorance and grey days.
Hi @pouhoboy You are replying to an old thread here so the original posters may not log in regularly, I can move your post into it's own thread if you wish ? I also use a 640g but haven't come across any leather cases for them, I wear a pump belt for mine as I prefer to keep it close to my body, I sourced this from Ebay.

Hi, I haven't come across any leather ones as of yet. I ended up just making some more for my son.
