I’ve become a big fan of Alpaka of late. I have their tech case mini which can add a strap to become a sling in a pinch, probably enough for my needs where Alpaka slingin’ is concerned, though I appreciate how their dedicated slings seem a bit more thoughtful about EDC in their organization - specifically how they have areas that seem tailored to whatever tech/notebooks can fit at that specific size. Love roundup videos like this where we can see the different sizes side by side. Thanks!

I have the mini, and interior is a bright blue ripstop nylon - not really an issue but worth noting that like you say, it seems that this is a material that may just be switched out for whatever is available at time of manufacture! Great sling though, looking forward to picking up the nano!

some bag brands stick religiously to certain colors/materials for certain model bags. Alpaka is not one of those companies lol

It’s funny since over the weekend alpaka released two more nano color options, so there are 4 different axoflux colors now, and two xpac. The nano sort of works as a tech pouch and desk caddy since it stands up alright and can lose the straps, those g hooks are a pain though. I do like the strap width and sewn in angle of the mini though, that might have two colors in xpac now if it isn’t sold out.

How is the axoflux? Is it big hair/dust magnet? I'm considering the regular, as it's design fits my work place vibe better than Aer Day Sling 3 Max I've been using. I would prefer Axoflux over the xpac, but not if it's hair magnet.

@Nomads.Nation 6 ай бұрын

I really like the Axoflux. It picks up a bit more hair than XPAC (cuz obviously) but it’s far from a ‘magnet’ imo

Hi Aaron, I've got a Microsoft Surface Pro 8 and looking for a new sling bag to carry it around.

Please review the max. capacity🙏🏼

Hi Aaron. I usually travel with a steam deck and big Sony ANC headphones 🎧 that together will go to my backpack. During the boarding process for a long flight I have to put on my headphones and release my gaming device and it’s kinda stressful 😩. How can I fit those two in a sling. Which one to choose for a one bag travel, so I could put my 30 liter backpack under the seat and have steam deck and headphones with me in a separate bag? Would be nice if you make a video on that for us, gamers. Thanks man.

@Nomads.Nation 6 ай бұрын

I’ve never gamed before so it’s not really my expertise haha, having said that I’d recommend reaching out to Alpaka to see which sling they recommend given the items you want to carry. I’m sure one of these slings + 30L bag will be the perfect travel combo

I have all of these. The mini is my least favorite, and the fidlock thing is awkward on the chest. I like those maglokz. The just seem to fit the bag better. The nano is awesome, i carry it most days. The big is also really good. It can fit 6 beers 🍺❤😂

So much comparison in differences, still functionally merits. Reckon Ultra Man will choose the G Sling, Inspector Gadget will go for the Go Mini & without a doubt Astro Boy will grab the Nano. What this 3 Slingers have in common.? They all survived the wind tunnel test..! Cowabunga.!!

Just got the go skiing and agree it took some work and fiddling to get the strap hope I like it but once I did it is comfortable and allows me to have a good fit on my back. I do enjoy the magnetic which release buckle. I agree the strap is not it's strong point but overall it is a great sling allowing to carry my 11 inch iPad pro, Kindle,phone, charger cables, battery pack keys and passport as well as a500ml water bottle in a slim appearing package

@Nomad.system 6 ай бұрын

⁠@@MHS927I love fidlock but I think the removable strap and excess padding are what throws me; it seems to add excess bulk that would bother me.

Go sling mini or Element tech case max? 🤔

@Nomads.Nation 5 ай бұрын

The Go Sling if you need a sling. The Tech Case if you need a tech case. If you are trying to do a two-for-one then neither are ideal, but I’d probably go with the Go Sling if you wear it everyday. I wouldn’t want to wear the Tech Case as a sling
