This bag seems like its perfect for flying. Could carry your passport, boarding pass, AirPods, phone, pen, power-bank, cable, and wallet, so you don’t need to access your carry-on while on the plane and can free up your pockets for a comfortable plane ride.

Just received mine in black a few days ago. After several wears, the main thing that bothers me is that the small zipper pocket is awkward to access. The fold hinders the zipping, and I ended up not using it. Other than that, I think that it is a great pocket reliever and I really dig the materials. Keep pumping those reviews, you guys rock 💪

@Nomads.Nation 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks so much Tom, and I'm glad that you are enjoying it so far! I 100% agree about the small zipper pocket kindof sucking, but overall it is a pretty great bag.

That's what it made from in that red earth colourway. Made from Recycled Venture Weave - This super-tight weave is crimped before production, to add a unique texture and extra abrasion resistance. It’s easy to clean and water-resistant.

I may pick one of those up as an emergency sling... that is to say, store it in my larger travel backpack and just take it out when I need to do sling things... otherwise, it would be a decent organizer just sitting in my bag...

On Friday I'll be able to give my first impressions. I've been using pouches for a while now and for certain scenarios they're my favorite type of carry but I never owned one this fancy, quality and style wise. Gotta get a fancy sweater too and nice boots, no pants, just sweater and boots... and pouch 😂

I’m excited to hear your thoughts. We just shot the review for the Black Ember Kompak pouch and I gotta say - pouches are tight! Also the sweater + boots + no pants sounds like a great day lol

Ok, now that I've tested this thing for a week or so I can just say that it's an amazing piece of gear. When you just need a couple of basic essentials this thing will get things done amazingly. I got the Ecopak Coyote Brown version and it's so lightweight and seems really durable as well. The organization is on point and it's really comfortable. I would definitely recommend this thing to anyone looking for a really minimal yet stylish carry solution, if you need something bigger but just as functional and stylish, the Lite Sling (which I also got) is the way to go. Bellroy is such a thoughtful company and they certainly deliver the goods every time. I'm sure I'll rock this thing for years.

I feel like if they rotated the overall design 90 degrees it would resemble a sling better and make it less purse like. But the size on this thing is perfect.

There is no way my husband would us this, I cannot even get him to wear a hiking fanny pack for a forest walk in Denmark. However, you should be happy to note I like the colors, but for 80 dollars it is too small for me to consider. There are other pouches out there that are cheaper and well… more space
