Review on πŸŽ’ Outdoor Tactical Shoulder Crossbody Backpack by Tony Trotter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is a reliable bag for everyday carry

I'm not a climber or hiker. I just wanted something that I thought would be of a higher quality, so I went with something that was meant for vacationers and backpackers. Neither do I, so take this review with a grain of salt when buying a bag for these reasons. I needed an everyday bag for my city commute. Part of my commute is on foot and I wanted a bag that I could just slip into and that wouldn't weigh me down. Questions. The stitching looks good and the webbing is a lot thicker than I expected (in a good way). It's not like something that will randomly wear out and break in a day of heavy use. - The bracelet is very comfortable. Built-in cushioning of very good thickness, which handles the load on the shoulder well. It also has a clip for keys or whatever for easy access. - A bit fiddly to adjust the strap (it's very tight on the strap so you'll have to do some work). In this case, the adjustment can be made rigid and secure, or loosened to hang more freely. I zip it up to keep it from dangling when I have to run to the bus or train. The zipper tabs feel strong. I used to buy other bags with cheap zippers. The zippers always come loose first after daily use. They come with zip ties which are a solid piece of metal so there is little or no chance of this ever happening. - In terms of size. This is not a bag for those who will be carrying multiple large items. (Like a couple of thick textbooks). The largest compartment comfortably fits two-liter bottles, but you can squeeze in a third if positioned correctly. Two bottles and you have room for a few extra little things. Remember, the more you stuff into this large section, the more it pushes outward, making it harder to fill the bag's other compartments. It comes with several smaller sections that I use as well. All seem to me as reliable as the main part of the bag. The mobile phone holder on the shoulder strap is detachable with Velcro and a clip. You can easily take it off if you need a smoother shoulder for any reason. In general: I recommend. No real complaints. The bag is solid, especially considering the price.

  • Great price
