Convatec has discontinued the pouch that I've been using for the past decade or so. They've replaced the Active Life line with the Esteem, and they are just not as good. My main problem is the filter does not let any air out of the pouch, I use a closed one piece so that's sort of a big problem. I'm a police officer (wearing a vest and gun belt can be tough with an ostomy) and was so grateful when I discovered the Active Life pouches because they have been working perfectly all these years. Any suggestions on an alternative, a one piece that won't leak but will filter air out, is what I need. Thanks!
