This gives me bellroy lite sling vibes 😅
ОтветитьHey Aaron, maybe I’m missing something but nobody ever reviewed the ModernDayfarer Sling - not the mini or light version, but the bigger one with the signature fidlock on it. It is by far my favorite sling - optimized for an iPad Pro 11“, and capable of handling even water bottles due to the expansion. I’d really like to know your thoughts! And, as always, great review! Cheers, Ben
ОтветитьHey! Is there a risk that magnetic buckle could come undone if someone were to attempt to yank the sling bag off the shoulder?
ОтветитьI have the mous sling. And I feel this may be a better option🤔
ОтветитьPerfect timing for me as I was looking for a flight pouch 😁
Thanks for the code and your honnest reviews 👍: yes, that back pocket sounds pretty useless but not a deal breaker
Hey A-A Ron,
I’m torn between this and the alpaka elements tech case v1.2
Which one do you recommend more for versatility?
Thanks always for replying!
you are over doing it in the passport pocket . that pocket in the rear is for quick access wallet and considering that it sits against your body it will not fall out also unless you are running jumping what ever item that is stored there stays there
ОтветитьGigiddy!!!
ОтветитьI mean, the back pocket was the reason I got this sling tbh.
When im at the airport and I need to get my passport in and out and in and out all the time its exhausting and that pocket is the perfect solution for me 😊
thanks for this review! i'm thinking of a father's day gift for my husband.. i don't think he'd be thrilled with the unsecured back pocket.. i think i'd go with the mini sling v1/v2
ОтветитьHello. Will the Alpaka flight sling fit Sony XM4 and sunglasses?
ОтветитьGlad I'm not alone in spending hundreds of dollars on bags in search of my "endgame". Which we both know doesn't exist, but grateful to have a channel like this. Every bag I have considered - y'all literally have a video for it. Thanks for all the hard work!
ОтветитьLove this flight Sling 🙏
ОтветитьThe key tether is definitely missing something.
ОтветитьThe back pocket seems great for items that you need to quickly put away and get out again. It's basically a third hand.
ОтветитьI'm a super fan of Alpaka, but yea I do not like the open back pocket. Personally I used the Vanquest Dendrite as my sling and more recently the alpaka tech pouch mini as a sling.
ОтветитьThe back poket without zipper sucks! Who the hell design something like this,??? 🎉
ОтветитьI think the back pocket is useful for quick access when at the counter or getting on the plane or going through security. I like that I don’t have to zip and unzip for a quick task. Think of it more as a place to figuratively lay your passport or wallet done instead of on the counter. Also nice for a phone that I’m always reaching for. If I don’t want it falling out, then I put it in a zippered pouch. It’s not like I’m climbing around under barbed wire or something when I’m wearing the sling.

ОтветитьNice. Just ordered with the affiliate link / code along with a few other bits. Appreciate all you put out there.
Ответитьback pocket! velcro strip (both side, )that can give a new life on this Alpaka sling
ОтветитьHey Aaron,
I wanted to love this sling but I’m with you the lack of security on the back pocket is well dumb not to mention a water bucket.
It’s not just Bellroy that makes dumb design decisions, it’s just they make more than most these days.
Cheers,
Christopher
PS. Love the wallet choice, I’m rocking the same one. Replaced my old Bellroy wallet with it. I prefer the actual innovative materials of this one but the Bellroy is still an all time favourite - at least until they find a way to screw it up too.
I would love to see a video between this flight sling and GO SLING MINI V2 ❤
ОтветитьJust got my Alpaka Flight Sling!! This review helped make the choice so much appreciated. Mine came with the Alpaka key ring (know at the time of recording, yours didn’t).
Testing it out on my evening walk. Back slip pocket bugged me less than I thought it would. Fleece internal is a little more rough to the touch than I thought it would be. G-hooks are ez to open, but a pain in the 🍑 to close!! Same goes for the key ring after putting keys on it & placing it back. So give it a 4.5 out of 5.
Agree, the back pocket does need a zipper for security...
ОтветитьNot keen on ripstop nylon, looks cheap compared to Cordura Ballistic nylon. But that back pocket with no secured zipper etc is a no go for me. Although I do like Alpaka, Also what is it with YKK zippers lol 99.9% of bags have these, it's pretty much standard these days so why are they such a big deal haha AER is my fav style of bags these days.
ОтветитьWITHOUT THE COMPARTMENTS FOR THE WALLET & CASH I DON'T FEEL LIKE HAVING ONE.
ОтветитьEven a strip of Velcro would make a significant difference for the back pocket. At least with Velcro, you have the option to leave it open with a boarding pass and passport stored vertically without any zipper teeth that could rub on the external part of the passport.
ОтветитьMaybe a small bit of velcro would save the back pocket. Best would be a zipper
ОтветитьAlready time to review the new half-size one….1L.
ОтветитьThis review channel is by far one of the most entertaining of any product reviews. Scripted or not, you present so naturally and very entertaining ... who would had thought a bag review would be entertainment! Great work Nomads Nation!
ОтветитьCan this fit an ipad mini?
ОтветитьWhat about the 1 L flight sling… hehe
ОтветитьGreat review!!
I'm researching a new travel sling bag, and after seeing the lack of security zipper in the back pocket, I'll look at something else. That pocket has been my passport/extra cash/ticket pocket for years. Like you said, it's that 1% something will happen, that'll bother me.
Thanks for the review!
The pocket is temporary and Alpka already tested that theory so no worries. Besides it's a good bag to carry your secondary 38 slim shot. You don't need more pockets so more reason for searches at the airport. Keep it simple bud
ОтветитьAs someone who wears glasses and constantly takes off/on sunglasses to swap with my regular glasses having a quick access non zipper pocket is so nice. Not enough slings this size have that
ОтветитьWhat wallet did you have in this video?
ОтветитьYou are walking around an awesome city.
ОтветитьI am planning to buy this awesome bag and glue 2 ( Not too powerful small magnets bars) in each side of the back packet. I hope works.
ОтветитьWhat Color do you Recommend?
ОтветитьI want a zippered pocket INSIDE a zippered pocket; much less likely to get pickpocketed.
ОтветитьAlpaka have now brought out a 1l version of this with a magnet on the back pocket.
ОтветитьI agree about the passport pocket sling bags are supposed to be tossed around back to front etc and like you my mentality is no zipper no security
ОтветитьI hit the first link and it brought me to a 404 error (just wanted to share so you can update if you choose). I LOVE your channel. I never knew shopping for backpacks and slings would be so fun. Also, I wish you had an Amazon commission page or somethign. Thank you so much for all your great content!
ОтветитьWhy it’s important to have dedicated zippered compartments for travel wallets and passport. I want one on the outside, against the body, and one internally. I want these pockets to fit both my passport and my wallet.
Why? Because travel can be tiring, and unpredictable. People rush you. They push you. Sometimes TSA gets a little gropey, or distracting with that wand thingy.
I had a flight recently where there was so much chaos at security that the woman in front of me dropped her credit card, retrieving her things from the belt. Fortunately I saw the card fall, but what a disaster!
So when I say I want dedicated, zippered pockets in my flight bag, I’m not fooling around.
THIS is the sling I want to try out.....BUT-- I'm with you on the back pocket!!
So my search continues...
iPad mini size is a pilot thing. Apparently pilots love the iPad mini as an electronic map device.
ОтветитьHi, can it fit an A5 notebook?
Ответитьso still using this? or was this a "review" were you showed it took some video and pictures and moved on to the next thing?
