Once you get one you won't leave home without it. It holds my wallet, keys, cell phone and when I travel it also holds my Kindle. It has a slim profile that hugs my body, whether on the hip, the front or the back. It's zippers are study, and don't snag. The strap looks thin, but it's light and comfortable. The days of forgetting my valuables at home have long passed since I got my go-to sling bag.

The Bellroy Lite Sling is my EDC. It is kind of a combo between the venture and sling, it has the magnetic strap of the sling and the opening of the venture but the main pocket only has two individual pockets for organization. I do prefer the magnetic closure of the lite sling on the strap. I also carry mine as a mix between sling and messenger depending on how much I have in it. My main issue with bellroy slings in general is that front pocket being so tight. I only keep my keys in it because I am afraid of anything else falling out while digging in there. It sucks when the main pocket is so functional in how wide it opens. I have been on the fence about upgrading to the venture for more organization in the main pocket and nicer material; made the mistake of getting that chalk color in the lite sling which was super sleek when I got it, but after a year of use is looking pretty rough. Another thing about Bellroy is, their materials are not easy to clean. Despite those nitpicks it is still my favorite grab-and-go bag; a bonus of the lite sling is how easy it is to stuff in a backpack, so you have some flexibility when traveling with how much you carry around with you. Still on the fence after this review haha.

Always glad to see you walk about with everything: gives a better sense of appearance and functionality. Have my 2 AER slings- largest and smallest. But the more I think about the ideas of componentry, I wait with baited breath on your build. I like the idea of an add-on modules for a laptop or "office" pack or even cam/tech packs. This way I can just swap stuff without having to move items back and forth: items always remain in their specific module. Always fascinated how women deal with it. Keep going, Aaron! ps I often have to add a small umbrella even w my Sling and wish there was some way to slap it on- currently I use a caribiner but it then slaps against the butt.

I got one of these months back (this exact color), I think its my fave 6L ish sling. Not the greatest for tech carry (like ipad, etc., or things with a specific pockets), but that one big compartment really expands. You can fit big bottles, umbrellas and jacket in there no problem, and it don't look that big outside, gotta love that big mouth zipper opening. The strap feels great, smooth and wide, the clips are the best sling clips I've used (and you get two!), and I own like 4 slings of various sizes. Alpaka and Aer make the nicest tech org type slings, but Belroy makes nice "big compartment)" type slings.

At some point I'm sure I'm getting one of these. Always loved Bellroy, so stylish and functional, perhaps too elegant sometimes but they surely know what they're doing. I already have too many slings (oops, bag addiction) but this size seems to hit the golden spot. My Aer City Sling 3 sometimes is too small, I have the Boundary Errant and it's too big, one of my favorites is the Trakke Largo but it is too stiff for certain uses so I'm guessing this one is in that middle ground that I'd love to use, I would use it messenger style as well when it's packed. Seems comfortable enough. If I give it a shot I'll use your link but I'm also waiting for a new sling that's on the making by a new brand of weirdos who review bags on YT, I dunno the name but they seem to be total nutcases but that's what's pulling me under their spell.

The Venture Sling 6L would be the perfect sling if only it had a mechanism for storing a water bottle outside the main body of the bag. Even a simple/strong stretchy loop, strapping, or pocket on the base would do it. At the moment, if you want to carry a decent camera on a day out and other day bits in the bag, having a water bottle in there too is really impractical. Even a small 250ml or 350 ml size one takes up too much room and also would hit your nice camera, like my X100V. If you stick in a small water bottle even vertically, it sticks out the top with the zip not fully done up and looking/feeling awkward. I've bought this sling but the lack of a water bottle solution is a real issue for me and I might send it back unfortunately cause it's superbly made. I wonder if I could sew something on the base myself????? Then I'd have room for everything else inside! mMMM so near THE perfect day bag, but not quite...

Hi Aaron, thanks for your comprehensive product reviews. I hadn't even realised this was a category of bag (slings) that existed until I started looking through your video catalogue! Can you clarify whether this (specifically, the Venture 6L) will comfortably fit a medium sized tablet? (E.g. a Galaxy A8, or an iPad 11") Alternatively, would the Aer Day Sling 3 Max fit such a tablet? I've narrowed it down to one of these two - I prefer the look of the Venture Sling, but being able to accommodate the tablet is a prerequisite. I'd prefer not to go to the Venture 9L as that seems too large (at that point, thought I might as well just use my regular backpack instead of buying an entirely new bag). Also on the Aer Day Sling 3 (apologies this is somewhat on the wrong video) - you mentioned the Fidlock magnet buckles: how easy is it up unbuckle by accident/how well does it hold up if someone were to simply try to grab the bag away from you (not so much an issue at home, but would be disasterous if you're travelling and carrying your passport)?
@Nomads.Nation Жыл бұрын
Yo dude, my pleasure! Unfortunately I don't have either of those tablets and I'm traveling now so can't say for sure. I'd recommend reaching out to both Aer and Bellroy customer service - they'll be able to give you a solid answer :) As for the Fidlocks, they def aren't thief-proof, but they are solid. They won't accidentally come undone and if a thief opens it then no magnets would have stopped them if you get what I mean.

@@Nomads.Nation Sure, they got me: Here it is: Venture 9L = 80cm - 150cm / width is 38mm Venture 6L = 72cm - 126cm / width: 37mm Ecopack 6L = 89cm - 114cm / width: 30mm (this doesn't account for the stretch in this particular strap)

It’s all the same. A backpack is just a purse you wear on your back
@backslashio9 күн бұрын
Disappointed they got rid of the colour you're holding, its a nice neutral urban colour & its not black. The other colours currently on offer don't really suit me and afaik the 6L green still has shiny zippers whereas 9L has matte. I'd prefer a forest green compared to the bright one and I don't like how the strap colour also differs
@Nomads.Nation9 күн бұрын
Agreed, I liked the color, but clearly not enough people agreed with us so Bellroy stopped stocking it 😢
@backslashio8 күн бұрын
Did you find the lack of a rear hidden zipper on this sling annoying or not so much because it’s bigger than the 2.5? I’ve seen people posting that the plastic strap connector breaks quite easily so I might have to avoid using it

@@backslashio I would have preferred the back pocket but I got used to it. I never had a problem with the strap connectors

I usually travel light with a mini sling, but I'm needing to carry more for my kids. Can the 6L fit a 10-11" tablet or will I have to get the 9L?

I have the Venture 6L and like it a lot, except it is nowhere close to six liters in volume, more like four (barely). Compare the Venture 6L to the Ulanski 6L and it's obvious Bellroy is deceiving.
