A tool pouch includes an internal tool receiving portion and an external tool receiving portion such that the internal tool receiving portion is insertable into the user pocket to provide a protective tool holder within the user pocket and the external tool receiving portion is positioned outside of the user pocket for receiving tools. The internal tool receiving portion has first and second internal members which are generally planar elements that are attached to each other to form an internal tool receiving cavity. The external tool receiving portion has first and second external members which are generally planar elements that are attached to each other to form a second tool receiving cavity. The internal and external tool receiving portions are connected at a bail. Any part of the internal or external tool receiving portions may be substantially formed from a multi-layered piece of material. An underlying stiffening element may be used to strengthen any portion of the tool pouch. Reinforcing tape is stitched along the sides and ends. A belt loop or slots may be added on a surface adjacent the user.
