It fits DSLR and more!

I've found the perfect sling! I can mount a Canon 5D Mark III DSLR with a 24-105 lens along with a 430EXII flash and a Canon M3 mirrorless camera with a 18-55mm lens as you can see in the picture. Overall a great bag!

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

Near Perfect - Messenger Bags

This bag is near perfect. I wish it was just 1 inch taller and 1 inch longer with adjustable clips for a rolled up jacket or water bottle and I wouldn't use any other bag. I use it for the gym, for cycling, for edc and as a camera bag for city photography. A Sony a7 III with a 24-70 lens and an iPad Pro will hardly fit in this bag. Just an inch more space would make it absolutely perfect.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Doubt

That's a hard SOB!

I bought this shoulder bag/backpack/person for a trip to Canada with my son. I needed somewhere to put my Nintendo Switch, some Nintendo Switch accessories, a small pack of butt wipes, a small pack of regular wipes, a phone, keys, a wallet, and lip balm. You probably shouldn't do this, I let my child sit on it when it got tired of walking. I wore this 40 lb nose piece for about 6 hours. The bag is amazing. It was worth it. only con belt bucket. It looks really cool but a friend feels the need…

Pros
  • Excellent overall
Cons
  • Not bad

Best 3 bag I've ever owned

Wow. just wow. This bag is worth something for the belt buckle connection alone. The bag itself is very high quality and holds everything you need. Yes, it technically fits a 12.9-inch iPad Pro, but you kind of have to make an effort and it stretches the pocket. That's why I don't use this case for my 12.9 inch iPad. So if you want one of these for an iPad or similar tablet, make sure it's 11 inches or smaller and you'll be fine. This is the best everyday bag I have ever bought in my life. so…

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • Obsolete

Very uncomfortable

It's confusing because many reviews say this bag is "comfortable". I've been trying this for a few days, tweaking things here and there and wondering why it remains so terribly uncomfortable. I thought maybe I'm just doing it wrong and will eventually find a secret way to wear this piece that doesn't pull your shirt in a million directions. nope This is not user error, just the design is not convenient. Aside from being uncomfortable, all the heavy metal parts make this bag LOUD. Every time you

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Transparency

Great looking holdall but not strong enough

This holdall is unique in that it has the seat belt buckle as a key feature. It's a little heavy considering the buckle is metal, but I knew it would be before I bought it. Overall, the sling is well made and looks very good. The only thing I would have liked about this bag is that it was made a bit wider and a bit taller. This would make this pocket size perfect for me to carry a mirrorless camera, charge my battery, wallet, keys and small items. After about a month of daily use, I noticed the

Good quality, not big.

This is a BIG all round shoulder bag for an urban environment. Although I probably own somewhere in the region of 20-30 different backpacks, bags, etc. This chrome bracelet is just the ticket. It's incredibly comfortable, stays in place, doesn't slip or rub, and is easy to adjust, take off and put on. The seat belt buckle is great and allows you to quickly remove it without tangling your hair or snagging your helmet. The compartments are large enough for small to medium sized laptops, with a…

  • Nice
Cons
  • Good but not great
