Is the Klein 55475 worth it over a standard tool bag?

If you carry tools to and from jobs daily, the backpack format frees your hands and the 35 pockets keep small items sorted. A plain tote costs less but offers less organization and no hands-free carry.

How does it compare with the Klein Tradesman Pro 55421?

The 55475 is the 17.5-inch, 35-pocket version with about 22 liters of capacity. Larger Tradesman Pro backpacks hold more but weigh more empty, so pick based on how much you carry.

Can it hold long screwdrivers?

Yes. The tall interior pockets are sized for long screwdrivers, and the front zipper pocket takes pencils and small items.

Yes. The zippers are lockable, so you can add a small padlock to secure the main compartment.

What are the dimensions and weight?

It measures 17.5 in tall, 14.5 in wide, and 7.375 in deep, and weighs 2 kg empty. Capacity is 1,344 cu in, or about 22 liters.

The best new price seen is $89.97 at Home Depot as of November 4, 2026. Watch for trade-supply and home-center promotions around holidays.
