Replica fifteenth century pouch.

A pouch is a small bag that is typically attached to a belt. Pouches come in many different designs and can be made from a diverse range of materials: leather, fabrics (such as brocade, wool), grasses (woven).

Pouches in the Manesse Codex (14th century)

Pouches in the SCA

Pouches may be used to store items such as your authorisation card, gold, keys or food (for when you get bored during court).

Concealed pouches may also be hidden in a woman's skirts.

Fabric sunglasses cases or any other drawstring bag, often work as a pouch until you make/obtain a more period pouch.
