Review on Gootium Camo Sling Bag Crossbody: Streamlined Design for Tactical Style and Hands-Free Practicality by Ashley Romero

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent organizer

The Gootium backpack is made of thick, high quality canvas and all stitching is excellent. It is well designed for easy organization of items. The muted camouflage pattern is excellent and doesn't have the flashy look that some camouflage pieces often have. The same applies to durable, aged metal fittings. However, I was forced to personalize mine. As others have pointed out, the click is indeed a weak point. Even after minor adjustments, the buckle clasp is easy to loosen with normal wear or use. I stopped relying on this and used a leather awl to sew the buckle tongue to the leather base. Of course, I have to unfasten a quality leather belt every time I need to use the top exterior pocket, but that's not essential (for me). Second, the leather is very good, but its finish is too light and doesn't fit with the overall muted look. It was a slight modification with a small stain on the skin. Third, there are 2 open pockets in the package - 1 front outside and 1 inside. I placed two antique magnets on the edge of both pouches to keep them closed under normal circumstances. Velcro fasteners are also suitable. Just a few tweaks to make it work perfectly for me. The backpack will surprise you with how much organization it can store. The wide shoulder strap is very comfortable. This is a great shoulder bag that should last for many years. Revain's delivery service was excellent! The order came within 3 days! Just unbelievable!
