So do you have one, and do you like it? I've used it a couple more times since the video - it's good for "stuffing" somewhere, but I still don't like that it doesn't stand upright and that it's hard to get the water out. Just preference.

I'm concerned about the lack of RFID scanning from the exposed side of the wallet. I guess I can use an RFID blocking card as a fascia but just wondering if you know anything regarding RFID protection of this wallet.
@NolanOfConsequence 4 ай бұрын
Everything I've read says RFID protecting your wallet isnt worth worrying about; much more likely to have info or money stolen some other way. But also, the way it sits in my pocket, the metal part faces outward, so that does block scans.

Drying the Vapur after cleaning was a bigger problem for me. There would always be a bit of water left in the bag. Over time it would probably grow mould, even if I only filled it with water. The HydraPak, being able to hold its shape, dries out much easier.

This was actually a great review…there is definitely something wrong with Bellroys “L” (liters) measurements. I love the bags but I am yet to find one that actually works for me! I bought the 9L and the 10L at once to try them and see which one worked for me because I wanted to be able to take my iPad 11” if I needed to…right away the 10L was a no since its divided inside with more of cameras-driven thinking…the 9L is awesome with nice organization but one there are a few things inside, there is no room for the iPad…so I took those back and ended up getting the Aer Day Sling 3 Max, everything fits, designated iPad pocket, nice organization! Still hunted by how much I liked the Bellroy though, I recently got the Ready Sling 2.5L…I don’t get the LITERS thing!! I got it just to have a Bellroy for the run, car keys, home keys, cellphone and a wallet..maybe my sunglasses…2.5L and it is a tight fit!! I have a minimalist wallet. So I ordered the Alpaka Elements Tech Mini…anxiously waiting to see if works better than the Ready Sling! I believe I have exhausted my options with Bellroy, which is sad because I love the colors, the materials, the straps…but there is something definitely wrong with the sizes, liters or whatever!!

So sorry, I don't know, I just picked it up as free swag at some conference! I'm not sure I'd recommend it, as I haven't used it much and always worry it's not going to hold, what with the open end. I'd go with something like this solution from Gecko Travel Tech: amzn.to/4agnCJ2, as it closes around the bottle, plus can attach to bottles that have their own handle already, as well as other uses. If you get it, let me know how it works, as it's on my wish list. Thanks for watching!

I found the 6l was a little small for my needs as well, so I got the 9l and a different case for my iPad (8" Tokyo folio from Bellroy) and that combo is perfect. The back, zippered pocket was still too small for the tablet but the separate protection of the folio solved it just fine while giving me even more storage organization (notebook, pen, and a couple of other small things.)

Yes, I definitely have my eye on that. Hard to justify buying another bag when I already have 2 slings and I'm not sure the Vertex would be much better for my use cases.

Great video, I have the alpaka element tech case max, and love the accordion style compartment and orange inner lining. The main issue I have with it though is that has a tech pouch first and sling bag second design and leaves a bit to be desired when using it as a sling. It is relatively thick as a sling, doesn't have any swivel to make the strap contour and distribute the weight more evenly onto the body.
