Great small side bag
I’ve owned this for a few months now and it’s been a great small side bag for regular use. It’s well built and I have little worry about the construction not holding up in the future. It’s also designed well and is very comfortable to wear while still holding everything I need without being to filled.

Wanted to Love it, but Couldn't
The bag itself isn't of bad quality, but the design I find could be improved on.If you check out Photo 1, the front pocket (the so-called Quick-Access Front Compartment) tends to collapses and is hard to unzip when it does, rendering it useless.Then if you notice Photo 2, the decision to put all those attachment loops are really unnecessary and makes it look horrible. Not to mention, do you really need all those loops? Three on each side, I double you have 6 of their Hub Carabiner Clip (the only type compatible with these loops) to put 6 different things on there. If you have that much stuff to hang, mind as well buy another bigger bag.Then the size itself is hard to say if this should be an EDC Bag or a Mini-Backpack. If it was a little bit smaller like the Go Sling Nano, it might be the best EDC Vertical Bag they have.I usually like Alpaka's Bag Designs, but this one is a little off for me. I hope they improve on these Vertical Sling Bags.

Works great for field recording mic Zoom H5
Perfect for the Zoom H5 Microphone field microphone!Has a lot more space than other reviews suggest.Holds H5 with deadcat, and Zoom shotgun w deadcat wind screen, small ultrapod tripod, extra batteries, SD card, AirTag, pens, field notes.The included strap is great but replaceable - works great with PeakDesign strap !I love the top loading and side walls so the mic doesn't fall out even when it's wide open!!Great bag!

Well-made crossbody unisex bag, great price
My husband loved this bag! It’s unisex, crossbody, well-made, simple design, compact - yet has room for all of your essentials. Great for theme parks, hikes, sightseeing, or just a walk. Great price!

Great small edc bag
Exceptional quality and design. I’m constantly changing out the contents and using this as an everyday carry bag when I don’t want to carry a backpack.

Pretty nice
The quality is top notch. It is a bit smaller than anticipated and the outside pocket is a bit thin but I love the top open approach. It can fit my Osmo Pocket 3 with grip extender and case vertically with no problem. I can also fit my Sony a6000 with pancake lens at the same time and still zip closed. The strap is thin but works. It’s a nice walk around sling and I use it to store camera (small stuff) for easy access while shooting or videoing kids sports.

Very durable. Has pockets to hold multiple items.

If a Filing Cabinet were a Bag
The media could not be loaded. I really wanted to love this bag but I just can’t get over how annoyingly stiff it is due to the hard foam or plastic(?) in the back of the bag. This gives the bag SO much rigidity - as if the quality fabric and construction doesn’t give it enough rigidity on its own.So basically, you can fit a single item in each pocket (the flatter the better, think filing cabinet). And forget about shoving anything else in there without crushing it.The weight is nice, not too heavy but heavy enough that it feels like good quality.Zippers are nice quality, a little hard to unzip at first but I assume they wear-in over time and get easier.Style is also A+Seriously, this bag could’ve been PERFECT if it were not for that unnecessary stiff board in the back.Could even put an additional pocket back there!
