Great bag with a couple tiny functional issues
on July 16, 2026
Posted by: Anna
from Copenhagen, Denmark
I have been using this bag as my daily carry for the last few weeks, and I can say that I really love it. I wear it as a sling in the front, and it fits lots of stuff (more than I need on a regular basis, but enough room for a small jacket or water bottle of if I needed to carry them). I love the pocket in the back for my phone. The organization is really nice, fairly minimal and not bulky, but very usable.
A couple small things that slightly annoy me - on the main zipper compartment if you open it all the way, I’ve noticed I can’t zip it back up one handed - it seems like it gets “stuck” on the corner and I need to use one hand to hold the bag while zipping it with the other. And the strap - no matter how I adjust it, I can’t have the padded part over my shoulder without having the easy-to-open buckle on my back, since one side of the strap (buckle side) is much longer than the other. So it does make me a bit nervous to walk around with it. I will probably add a zip tie as someone showed on a tip video, even though it doesn’t look great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect crossbody bag!

This sling is a fantastic product! I bought it for walks and small hikes. It holds a lot for being smaller than a backpack. I carry two water bottles and a folding water bowl for my dog in it. I also can put my large iPhone in the back pocket and it is a soft pocket that is protected against my body. It can’t get banged around by something I walk past. The main compartment can hold snacks and a folding jacket. This bag carries nicely crossbody and stays put. It has a padded shoulder strap that I love. It is a great bag!!!! It is well made and sturdy. I highly recommend it!

Great sling, bad strap
on July 2, 2026
Posted by: RobN
I picked up the sling during the initial run on kickstarter. The sling itself is great, I use it a lot for things like my phone, keys, and ID when I don't want those in my pockets, but the strap is terrible and the clip is too easy to disconnect. This was a huge concern when travelling in Europe.
I found the best solution was to remove the strap entirely and just use an anchor on each loop and use one of my PD leash or slide lite. Guaranteed to not accidentally unclip now. I have no intention to use it as a fanny pack so I have no need for a "easy to drop / lose my bag" clip
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great all around bag with multiple uses

I bought this sling because it looked great. I was not sure what I was going to do with it. I was sure I will find lots of things to use it for in the future. I just got back from a long two week trip. While I have a lot of daily meds that I take in a daily pill container. I have a lot of other medical related items that I usually take with me on longer trips. The various compartments made it easy to sort out small bottles, injectables, sprays etc. It was a great go to that conveniently kept everything I needed.

15 plus Years and Counting- Customer for life.

Just take my money! It all started with the camera clip and camera straps. I thought to myself this is brilliant! I have been a Peak Design fan since then 15 plus years ago. I own so many of your products I can't name them all here, and they are all great. Keep that Sh*t up! I would love to see you make luggage or bag tags that clip on and off all your bags, backpacks and pouched with the same camera clip. Peak Design colors Plus Plus.
I just purchased your outdoor sling and outdoor backpack to photograph a cattle drive of all things and it preformed as I expected, Awesome.
Love you... and my outdoor sling.
