Big flaw in design
on August 2, 2025
Posted by: CA
This bag would otherwise be a great unstructured sling that molds to your body when worn if not for the easy release clip. It is TOO easy to release and the bag immediately falls to the ground. If you have anything fragile in the bag it will likely be broken as the bag does not have a lot of cushion or padding (which would be fine if there wasn’t this risk of dropping the bag on the floor with normal use). Just a slight touch of the clip when adjusting the bag on your shoulder will cause it to come undone. Huge design flaw not seen in any other competitor slings I have in this category (eg Bellroy, Aer, tonic etc).
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Solid Sling Bag, but not for camera gear

It's a solid sling and waist pack all around, but I wouldn't trust it for camera gear. I'd rather use it as an edc/pocket reliever style bag

Not a camera bag

Bought this a month ago to lug around my camera and it is not padded or safe enough to protect your camera. It’s good quality but definitely more so for travel than for your camera’s protection.

Great Sling, disappointing strap
on July 24, 2025

Very nice Sling with two flaws regarding the Strap. 1st I'd like the closing mechanism to be reversed. I mean that if i undo it with one hand, I'd hold the short part of the strap. 2nd After it got in contact with the hook side of a velcro strap, it started fraying and is now a bit unsightly. Other than those two things im Very happy with the quality and design of this sling, and i hope itll serve me well for quite some time.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good sling/waist pack, but not a great camera bag
on July 5, 2025

As an small every day sling or pocket reliever sling and waist/fanny pack it works out great. If you're looking for it as a camera bag, I'd look elsewhere even if you can fit a camera cube into it. It's relatively packable with the only structure in it being the padded back.
I don't mind the strap since I mostly wear it as a waist/fanny pack, but if you wear it mostly as a sling and will swap between shoulders, it can be annoying since the padding won't align with your shoulder. It's also easy to unbuckle, which can be a good or bad thing depending on the person.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This would be a great sling IF: 1) Peak Design did not slap their logo all over it, which cheapens the product (and their brand) and 2) If it came in the Sage color. Therefore, I'll continue to use my XXS packing cube and strap as my everyday sling instead of the 2L. YMMV of course.

Perfect for exploring

This is a great sling to use in combination with the 45 l backpack when traveling. You leave the backpack in your room and take what you need for exploring. The only thing I wish is that there was room for a water bottle

Brilliant bag for everything.

Bought on a whim and this could be my favourite bag. Slim when it needs to be big when you want to squeeze more in and now bought the cube and fits an a7 with 24-70 perfectly and space for more Bits. The phone slot is superb. The issue with the clasp is resolved with a strap from another company with works perfectly that crosses over from the two ends. Either side of the clasp.
I would recommend this to a friend!
