Hook is not as secure as I thought
on November 29, 2024
Posted by: SZ
Had used it as a sling bag for a year. Take a little force to install the hook. Feel it is secure but I was wrong. The hook is mysteriously detached a few times. The only good thing is that I didn't lose anything.
And for a better detail, should velcro sew the last?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Poor design
on February 2, 2025

from Rochester NY
This bag was a gift for me to keep my wallet, credit cards, keys, and telephone. I am not happy with it, because the strap will not stay attached to the bag. Whenever I get out of the car or it gets bumped, the strap falls off and it falls to the ground and gets dirty if the weather is bad.. For this reason it is nearly useless, and I can never find my keys in it. The design of the strap attachment is terrible. It would hard to design it worse.

need a little diy
on December 6, 2025
Posted by: a5n
Regarding the issue of the lid not sealing properly, I believe it is a design flaw in version 2. Its straps are attached to both ends of the bag, whereas version 1 has them on the back, with the two ends relatively close together. The design of version 2 causes the top lid to be pulled outward on both sides, a problem that version 1 does not have. Therefore, after getting version 2, I still followed the previous method by punching holes in the back and attaching two pieces cut from an old waist belt. This allows PD's camera strap to pass through the holes and connect to the waist belt pieces. It might sound a bit complicated—I will upload a photo later.
PS: I updated DIY. In fact, it is easier to follow the PD design and directly pass through a belt. In addition, I compared it and found that V2 is still a little larger than V1.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Problem: the connection with the shoulder strap
on November 22, 2025
Posted by: Sabine
from The Netherlands
I bought this item 3 years ago. I use it for my Fujifilm X100VI. It is a great Pouch. I use it a lot!
There is only 1 thing that does not work well: the leash is attached to the pouch with two clips.
When you clip the included shoulder strap to the pouch it will easy loose the connection because the 2 clips are to wide. You have to control the connection every time you use the pouch.
I have replaced the shoulder strap for an older camera strap.
I think it's a shame that it works like this, because I much more liked the included shoulder strap.
I hope the new pouches will have a better construction.

Unfortunately the strap is not reliable
on October 18, 2024
Posted by: lukas
I bought it two months ago but never used it because the strap they include has slip-on plastic tabs and one side keeps coming un-connected from the cloth loop on the back side of the bag.
Really wanted to like it and use it but unfortunately I'm planning to resale it...

Great if you can't find a 3L Everyday Sling
on May 11, 2025
Posted by: mdrips
I bought and carry this because I could never found a 3L version of the Everyday Sling here in France.
It's ok for my compact cameras and I don't worry too much about its Velcro fastener.
Granted it's not overly roomy inside, but it's a small bag, not some Harry Potter device.
