Peak GearTravel Sling Bag. Compact Crossbody Bag | Lighter and Smaller than a Backpack | Lifetime Lost & Found ID Tag

I purchased this Peak Gear bag in 2020, and has held up remarkably well as my only daily bag. After daily use for the last four years I'm only seeing minimal wear and tear. No major - or even minor fraying really. Just a bit on the keychain loop at the top, and the interior zipper pouch.At first it seemed on the smaller side, and definitely has a thin profile - but man it holds a surprising amount. Definitely everything I need to handle most daily situations, and I've never been asked to remove it at venues that normally don't allow big purses or backpacks. For me, it holds:MAIN POCKET: inhaler, hand sanitizer, gum, e-cig, travel size lotion, travel size pack of toothpicks, kleenex. scentbird cologne tube and a poopouri in the pen holders. a battery pack, super short usb-c cable, galaxy buds, and mirror/brush compact in the interior hanging pocket. the interior zipper pouch holds a xl shower/body wipe and medium sized vaultz diagonal zipper bag loaded with travel sizes of imodium, listerine mini brush, tylenol, pepto tablets, claritin, eyeglass wipe, condom x 2, lube packet, and dude wipe. i keep these small things in a removable pouch so there isn't a bunch of loose stuff randomly in the bag. KANGEROO POCKET: foldable reusable shopping bag, small clipped on knife. EXTERIOR ZIPPER POCKET: this one usually goes unused, as once the bag is full up the exterior zipper pouch can't expand much - but it does get occasional use for receipts, folded paper, and sometimes my flat front pocket style wallet.All this and it only bulges to about 3.5" at it's thickest point. I don't think it's waterproof, but I've worn it in the rain several times and never had an issue with water getting inside - even with the little headphone/charger hole on the side. Definitely go for this if you want something uber discreet and durable.

I love this bag. It's small enough to carry comfortably at my side or cross-strapped across my chest-- and yet, big enough to carry all that I need to take with me. I'm a male, if that's important, and I'm able to carry all the essentials plus more!When I first received the bag I encountered a slight issue; however, Karen from their Customer Service line rectified it straight away. To make things even better: she was very kind, helpful, and-- because this is rare amongst most customer service reps-- continued the service until *everything* was straightened out :) She even contacted me afterwards to make sure I was satisfied! Wow!To top it all off, she was very respectful. I felt like she actually cared for me, a random customer, enough to present a wondrous customer service experience. I really felt like I was part of the family!I would suggest purchasing this bag based off of the design, build, and lightweight design alone...But, I would urge you even more to do so strictly based off the Customer Service alone. I am definitely coming back to this store because of the top notch Customer Service-- they really do care for their customers.

I've had bags like this before, but they would all get twisted around. This one has a firm, wide strap, so it lays flat against my back. The strap also can switch sides, so I can throw the bag over either shoulder. It's great for keeping a bunch of small items like phone, keys and wallet. I use it when wearing gym clothes that don't have good pockets. One downside: the outer pocket is triangular shaped and a little open on the sides, so small items tend to fall out. So I don't use that pocket much. The zippered pocket behind it is secure.

I was headed to Universal Studios and wanted a small sling pack that could hold my wallet, cellphone, sunglasses, sunblock...and a few other small items. This bag was very comfortable, had a perfect inside zip pocket that allowed me to ditch my big wallet and safely carry my ID, a credit card and a little cash. It has a nice sleek look. The quality also seems good, as I was pulling it on and off and shoving it in lockers so I could get on rides and it still looks brand new. I do a lot of travelling and am excited to take my new little bag with me! The ONLY suggestion I would have for Peak, should they do any design changes, would be to make the strap have the ability to break down so it can be turned into a fanny pack. I understand this may increase the price, but my little sister had a bag by Vera Bradly that had a removable strap extender...so when I had to put my bag in a locker to get on a ride, she was able to remove the extender strap, and wear it as a fanny pack, which was allowed. Plus, when traveling, I just think it would be nice to have the option. Sometimes the sling strap on a big chest looks a little funny, so rocking the fanny pack would be a nice option...lol. This bag is really terrific and it is refreshing to not pay a fortune for something of such quality!

I'm not the traditional purse type of girl, so I've been hunting for other options that I can wear over my shoulder or as a crossbody when needed. I love the design of this one, great quality. Compact and sleek are good words to to describe it, but I should've paid a little more attention to the dimensions. It can definitely hold essential items, like phone, keys, wallet, battery pack etc., but I like carrying extra stuff (I'm a "just in case" person). This one is just too compact for what I like to carry on a daily basis, but I recommend this for people that travel light or just want the option of a compact bag depending on the occasion. I like it enough that I'm going to keep it, I think it'd be great to use for a day trip to the city or something, where I'd only bring necessities with me.
