Small but lightweight

I knew it was going to be a small backpack, but it is SMALL. Unfortunately I can’t even fit a bottle of water in the side pocket. The bottle does fit inside the bag though. I just wanted this to carry small odds and ends while walking through parks and trails, which this will do! I’m bummed about not being able to fit a water bottle in the outside pocket but otherwise happy with it. It’s super lightweight, I hardly feel it on when I’m wearing it.

Pros
  • Zipper closure
Cons
  • May not be able to hold a DSLR camera

The zippers feel a little cheap like after too much use they will no longer connect. Some of the zippers came with the zipper itself fully closed but the grip part in the middle of the zipper which was confusing. It's a great bag for a little hike or travel, which is what I planned it for.

Pros
  • A specially designed small zipper pocket on the shoulder strap for keys,cards; Side pouch for sunscreen spray or umbrella.
Cons
  • May not accommodate all necessary hiking gear

Lots of bang for your buck. I have a similar bag made by kavu that was at least $30 more. This one is pretty functional and has plenty of room for basic things. I store my checkbook size wallet, sunglasses case, phone, keys and chapstick. It also had a zipped pocket on the strap so that if the bag is on your back, you have easy access to your phone or other small items.The only unexpected thing with this bag is I think it's designed for lefties. It goes over the opposite shoulder than what I'm…

Pros
  • Backpacks, Bags & Accessories
Cons
  • The shoulder strap may not be adjustable enough

Perfect day bay/EDC, can fit Stormlight Archives inside

I got the medium bag. I’ve had it for 3 days, and I can’t think of a fault. The larger pocket is big enough for a couple of novels. Seems durable, and large enough for daily EDC type carry. I’m the sort of guy who loves bags, and is always carrying a bag or a backpack with me, and I absolutely love this for my always-carry bag! Not quite big enough for school books or clothes, but perfect for a reader/writer or EDC

Pros
  • Camping & Hiking
Cons
  • May not fit all necessary items for a full day trip

Medium size perfect except for bottle holder

I thought if I got the medium size that the water bottle holder would be bigger.Still too small for our reusable water bottles. They fit, but it’s a great struggle to get them in. Way too difficult for a kid.A regular plastic water bottle fits fine.Shown on 6, 3, and 8 year old —- good on 6 and 8, too big for 3.

Pros
  • The chest sling design makes it easy to access your belongings without having to take the bag off completely
Cons
  • Not suitable for carrying musical instruments

Great bag.but small!

Although I am not use the bag because it is a Christmas gift and I have already wrapped it, I looked at the bag and saw that the size was quite small but if you’re looking for an easy travel bag it works for that it is water Resistant and became true to color. Overall this is a good brand to buy. If my sister tells me otherwise I will take down my review!

Pros
  • The bag is perfect for use in all weather conditions, whether it's raining, snowing, or hot and sunny
Cons
  • May not be suitable for carrying bulky items

Good , could be better

This is a great sling bag-fun color, perfect size for what I needed, lots of pockets and dividers. Unfortunately once anything heavier than a lip balm is added the zippers become nonfunctional because the weight of the item(s) cause the lining to snag. If the lining was not left to overhang the seams I would have loved this bag-instead it ended up in the donation bin.

Pros
  • The bag is perfect for people who like to stay organized, thanks to its multiple compartments
Cons
  • May not be suitable for carrying heavy toolkits

Love this bag! - my new review

I have used this bag all summer. It's big enough to hold what I need ( often a snack, my wallet, keys, phone & hand sanitizer) but not too big. I've used it at the amusement park and it was fantastic. Great inexpensive bag.

Pros
  • The bag is perfect for people who want to keep their belongings close at hand while they're traveling
Cons
  • The chest strap may cause discomfort for some wearers

Poorly sewn back strap

The back strap is not sewn into the actual pack. There was only a single line of stitching holding it together. So this pack didn’t even make it to the 4th day of my trip. The pockets were all nice and it’s spacious but it is not durable enough to be usable. I would not recommend buying this pack.

Pros
  • It has a spacious main compartment, so you can store all your essentials in one place
Cons
  • No clear compartment for easy access to important items

This is a cute backpack

The is a cute size of backpack but it is not a dual sling bag, you can use it only for your left shoulder, the adjustable shoulder strap has only the right D-ring and no left D-ring so is not interchangeable.

Pros
  • Just the right size and holds everything you need on a day trip . Love it
Cons
  • Not recommended for extended camping or hiking trips

Cool little bag! in my review

This small backpack will be perfect for our upcoming Disney World trio this summer. Since we only need to carry a few things with us like keys, wallet, phones and chargers it will work great. It is smaller than I expected but is still going to work just fine! It won’t get in the way. Look at it like an oversized fanny pack without the dorky fanny pack look! Sorry fanny pack wearers! The material seems perfect for water rides and rainy days to keep your belongings dry! This is a great buy!

Pros
  • It's available in a range of colors, so you can choose a style that suits your personal aesthetic
Cons
  • May not have enough padding for comfortable wear

Cute bag. Item as described.

I am starting with 3 stars as the item arrived as described. The cell pocket on the strap WIL NOT FIT AN IPHONE 7 Plus in a hard case. I purchased this as my essentials bag to wear under my sweatshirt when flying for travel. The two pockets are large enough to hold my wallet, phone, keys and a few other things. Once I use this frequently everyday, I will update my Review. Zippers were "split” when I opened the packaged but were ok once I zipped the slide open and closed a few times.

Pros
  • The sling bag is unisex, so it can be worn by both men and women
Cons
  • Not suitable for long-term use

Great Minimalistic Backpack

This product came just as described. It is both durable and seems to be well made. I have used it for 2 full weeks and taken it on a few hiking trips. The strap pocket comfortably fits my large Samsung Galaxy S10+ phone. The inside pockets and little place to hang your keys is a very nice feature. I find the partition in the main pocket helpful and it will hold my Kindle Fire. My only issue is that the water bottle spot is quite tight. I myself carry a 16.9 fl oz Voss plastic water bottle and…

Pros
  • The bag is perfect for photographers who need to carry equipment while on the go
Cons
  • May not be suitable for carrying skis or snowboards

Very useful in my review

The portability of the bag is great for my wife’s use. She also enjoys the option of it being waterproof. That's my review!

Pros
  • The stylish design means the bag can be worn with a variety of different outfits
Cons
  • May not be ideal for long-distance running

Cyan green? More like emerald green

EDIT: DO NOT BUY THIS. One week in and the zipper ripped off. :(Got the medium cyan green bag! I got it for day hikes, less than 10ish miles. I am satisfied with it! It is just big enough for my body, my medium sized water bottle fits in there along with the essentials and a few snacks too. There are a couple things (not deal breakers for me) that you should be aware of though when buying. It is not true to color, it’s definitely more of an emerald green. Secondly, I have to shimmy into this in

Pros
  • The bag is perfect for people who like to travel light
Cons
  • May not be suitable for carrying a large-sized umbrella

Wore out quickly good for me

I love this bag. It’s super cute and holds all my stuff for kayaking. The only problem is that the little pouch on the front of the strap has these little loops of elastic sticking out every where. After the first time I used it the fabric exploded with them. I still use the bag, but I’m disappointed in the quality.

Pros
  • Perfect for traveling
Cons
  • Strap is too narrow and too long. Folding or tying it in a knot looks cheap impractical and ugly.

Water bottle opening is challenging but can be done.

I purchased the small size slings as gifts for a 7 and 4 year old. Lots of pockets and small size is just right for kids. I think the water bottle opening is only illustrated in one of the color options so figure on a 2" opening that will allow just a couple more inches since it is not stretchy. I found a small diameter stainless water bottle that fits easily; TAL 10 oz double wall Insulated stainless steel water bottle with wide mouth lid sold on Walmart site. The down side is it is only 10oz…

Pros
  • It's an ideal choice for those who prefer to travel light
Cons
  • No external straps or hooks for attaching additional gear

My daughter stole from me

I took this to Vegas with me, they have amazing pic pockets there, but since I kept it on the front of my body I had zero loss of money or credit cards. Upon my arrival home from Las Vegas my 23 trip old stole from me and had been using ever since, I thought it was what happens in Vegas, any who, I was not victimized until I was back in my own home. I love this small back pack.

Pros
  • Outdoor Recreation
Cons
  • May not have a sternum strap for extra support

Definitely NOT waterproof

I say 3 stars because it's a handy bag. Convenient size. My problem is I bought it solely for the waterproof feature. I took it to a theme park on a water ride with the expectation it would keep my stuff dry. It soaked right through the zippers and the lining. No part of this thing is waterproof at all.

Pros
  • The waterproof material will keep all your belongings safe and dry while you're out exploring
Cons
  • No hydration bladder compartment

Too small for water bottle, will hold Nikon camera

Bought this for daily use but returned for the larger size. I wanted to carry my Nikon D5100, waterbottle, keys, and phone. My camelbak eddy bottle doesn’t even come close to fitting in the side pocket (although it would have fit in the big main pocket without my camera).Seems to be decent quality and overall design is good. 4 stars due to the deceptive picture of the man holding the bag - it’s not even half the size of what it appears to be.Edit to update: Got the large size and it fits…

Pros
  • The chest sling design helps prevent theft, as it's always in your line of sight
Cons
  • May not have enough pockets for organization
