Smallest Good quality Binoculars

[yukonC]

I am looking for a very small set of binoculars that will fit in the waist belt pouch of my Kuiu pack. I currently have the vortex vanquish which are small just slightly to big to be functional on the move in the pouch. I am a turkey hunter so light and small is ideal.

My Leica compacts fit easily with room to spare. I'd think Zeiss compacts would fit the same.

Try out the maven b3 8x30, try their demo program if you don't like them you can just send them back

If money is not a concern...

zeiss victory compacts (the new version). Awesome glass, gives up nothing to 8x32 until you get into pretty low light.

I just picked up the Maven B3 8x30’s...Excellent glass for the money.

If money is a concern, Zeiss 8x30 BT from several years ago

I appreciate all of the responses this far but I believe all of them are bigger than the vanquish I am using now. And well lower the price the better....

I bought my kids some vortex 8x28s and man they are clear. I don't know if they are small enough for your use but they are great for the price.

I need more binos like I need another hole in my head, but you got my attention. Which do you have?

I use the Zeiss Victory 10 x 25's on my sheep hunts. I carry them in a waist belt pouch on my Barneys Pack, or in my pant pockets, depending on circumstances.

Do you need 10x?

The Leica 8x20s are teeny. When folded they should easily be much smaller than the vortex. The dims shown on the leicas is typical all the way open, not folded. There are some older zeiss 8xs that are also very small. Forget the name - NOT the single hinge version.

Vortex solo monocular is always an option.

The Swaro CL line has impressive optics...I love my 10x30 CL Companions.

Maven also has the c2 7x28 or 10x28 that are very similar in weight as yours for 200 dollars but I've never used any of the c line binos

The Vortex 8x32's fit in my Medium general purpose pouch pretty easily. Their 8x28's fit well too. As stated above their monoculars work good too. Cheap to replace.

Maven B3s are just slightly bigger than what you're using right now (although about 3 or 4 oz heavier but still a very light optic).

The image quality will blow the Vanquish out of the water though at a $500 price point. I haven't ever heard somebody say they don't punch way outside their weight class.

I have had a pair of Swarovski 8x30s for almost two decades now and they are still crystal clear. They fit in my hand when folded closed, and they fit in the chest pocket of every vest and jacket I’ve ever had. Buy once, cry once.

Zeiss SF10X32s would be perfect. I have a pair of 10X25 CL Pockets and they are very nice.

Those SF 32's are quite large, bigger than some 42mm binoculars. Owned a pair for a short while, they wouldn't fit in most backpack hip pockets that I've seen. The Zeiss Victory 25 pockets however as someone mentioned get excellent reviews and are much smaller.
