Nearly perfect, but for the unsafe quick release b
on June 8, 2026
Posted by: Daniel
I had bought this sling about a year ago and it had been a really good travel companion until I nearly lost it riding a scooter in SE-Asia because the quick release buckle is way too easy to accidentally open. I was lucky and caught the bag… but this is not good.
I did then take it to a local bag maker had them replace the buckle (photo)..

Again it would be a nearly perfect sling if peak design would have chosen a secure buckle!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fantastic Travel Sling!

Excellent bag for travel! I’ve used it for a several week trip to Scandinavia and it has been perfect! Great size, configuration and lightweight! I finally found the perfect sling for travel! Have had absolutely no issues with the strap coming undone or any wear on the sling. Extremely happy with this bag!
I would recommend this to a friend!

2L is great size and simple to conceal

Great product. Use it regularly. Easily conceals a Glock 19 in an appendix carry holster that is form fitted to weapon. Suggestion also made to PD to consider making a product line for this purpose. I’m referring to the 2L size.

Super bag!
on May 22, 2026

This bag is super and does everything I need it for .... used it for walks about 3-4 hours duration carrying an extra lens 135mm, phone and phone power bank, monocular, torch, lip balm etc. It is water proof and makes it easy to walk light but still change lenses quickly on separately carried camera. Used it in Namibia for 2 weeks every day, walking, helicoptering and looking for wildlife.

Easy to fix the buckle issue

The bag is light, has some good organization with the variety of pockets, and holds an umbrella perfectly too. It hangs really nicely as a sling in the front so it works great with a travel backpack.
Yes, the buckle is dangerous but easily modified. I added a couple pieces of gorilla tape inside the buckle and now it works as it should, requiring a very strong push to engage.

As compact as a 4L but can be expanded for more!

I bought the 4L originally thinking the 7L would be too big. And while I LOVE the 4L, the 7L compresses perfectly (almost as small as the 4L) to be a substitute for my 4L when I am not carrying a lot and/or want to be discreet with my carry. But when I do want to go big, the 7L decompresses and gives me the extra space I need.
I use it as my personal item for carry on with my 11" iPad, various cables, AirPods, other travel sundries. Still low profile. Still compact. But easy carrying. When I get to my destination, I pull out the X-Small camera cube and carry my Nikon Zf w/ 40mm f/2.0 AND my Nikon 24-200mm lens.

Best 7L Sling for 2026 Switzerland and Japan trip
on May 7, 2026
Posted by: Hugo
What I've been looking for for my Japan and Switzerland trip 2026 to fit my water bottle, windbreaker jacket, umbrella on the bottom attachment, and souvenirs. I like that the straps flatten the bag when not filled with stuff.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Comfortable

The sling is very comfortable, has good padding and can store a lot of things given its size, including a small umbrella.
I would recommend this to a friend!
