Review on Sling Vanlison Petite Chest Backpacks by David Plunkett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It works best in everyday backpacks

I used it on a trip to a city known for summer visitor densities and local pickpockets who tend to hunt them down. The risk isn't necessarily greater than in any other big city, but it helps a little to put things in the zip pockets in front of you. you will get. But this front sling backpack is actually of decent quality. There are several pockets, each protected by a zipper or button, and one of the pockets is on the back of the bag so it's pressed against the body. I assume this works fine. The only thing I would like to improve is the size of the pockets; You can't take anything big and there is no suitable place for a water bottle. These are minor issues, however, and fixing them can also make the bag heavier. I've just tested it and it fits (I'm 5'7 male) and will update later after trying it on a load. Update (07/11/2019): Back from a trip, the thing worked great. She kept my wallet and money out front and in my pockets I had things like subway tickets and train tickets. It wasn't too intrusive and I could even slip my pocket guidebook inside. main department. Again, there were times I would have liked a little more room, but it's gotten a lot bigger and you'd be better off with a full backpack. I almost always carried it with me, and on one occasion it proved a deterrent against theft. We were in a coffee shop and the couple next to us placed a small wallet on the back of a chair. Just a moment passed and the thief disappeared in no time, neither of us saw anything and the wallet was stolen. It looks like a nerd, but I'd rather be a nerd with my wallet than the victim of a fashion beagle.
