Review on Sling Vanlison Petite Chest Backpacks by Amy Cook

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice for the price. Essentials Cooler Bag and/or Essentials

First, the webbing/belt itself has the durable quality of the seat belt. I'm rather a fat guy but the strap/sling is really generous. It took a few stray threads and some TLC to cut with a lighter - but not too bad. He has good balance in sling mode. It usually stays in place and distributes weight comfortably. It offers good access when you fold it forward to access the pockets. The material/construction of the bag seems pretty solid for the price. The zippers are of pretty good quality and the pull tabs are quite decent. As for sizing, it's definitely a slim fit. The main compartment shrinks a bit with all my stuff in my pockets. However, there are still some potential places. This is definitely a short hop bag. (I sewed a velcro - usually it's just a label)

Pros
  • It's OK!
Cons
