Initial impression of the bag was that the material choice and stitching appear to be of good construction and quality. The aquaguard YKK zippers are a bit more snug than normal zippers but that’s to be expected with the covers. I wasn’t sure about the shape and fit of the bag when I was looking through photos but was surprised at how comfortable it sits on my body. Even with the bag fully packed it was still able to rest against my body comfortably without too much movement. A big plus is the strap is removable and swappable. The buckle is placed on one end rather than towards the middle of the strap so it can be worn with a backpack without the strap digging into your bag with a pack on at the same time. The buckle seems to be a brand specific design and took a little bit of messing around to get used to it. But it is definitely secure along with the integrated magnetic closure. The interior material is soft and less likely to scratch any screens and finishes on devices. Personally, I think it has the right amount of pockets and level of organization for my needs. Large middle compartment and pack pocket. Plus it has small outer pocket for quick access to small essentials like cash without opening the main compartment. Read more
I recently purchased this small travel bag, and it has exceeded my expectations in terms of size, organization, and versatility. It's perfectly sized for carrying my small Sony camera, its accessories, and my passport, with room to spare for a few extra essentials. One feature I particularly love is the removable strap. With the help of some carabiners, I can easily attach this bag to the front straps of another backpack. This setup allows me to access my camera quickly while carrying two bags comfortably a game changer for photographers or travelers on the go. The bag's compartments are well-designed, making it easy to keep everything organized and secure. The material feels durable, the zippers operate smoothly, and the overall quality is excellent. Whether you're traveling light or pairing it with a larger bag, this compact travel bag is a fantastic choice. Stylish, functional, and versatile it’s now an essential part of my travel setup. Highly recommended! Read more
Really liking it so far! Wanted to decrease how much I was carrying each day. Being a small bag it forces me to keep my daily carry reasonable. I now carry two EpiPens, my inhaler, chapstick, gum, a small pouch with a few pills and bandaids, AirPods Pro, keys and phone. The bag has a lot of structure, so it fills up pretty quickly. I could maybe fit a bit more in the front pocket, but it’d bulge. The back pocket is nice to throw something in from time to time, but since it doesn’t have a zipper I try not to leave anything in it for too long. The key strap in the front pocket is nice, but I wish it was off to one side or the other. Being in the middle it feels like it’s taking a lot of space, and once I have my keys in I have to move the strap ever to get to other things. It would almost be better if they had a strap on the back and you used the back pocket for keys instead. This bag is small enough to throw into a larger sling/backpack if I need to carry more, so I don’t have to move a bunch of stuff around. The straps being removable makes it even better for this in my opinion.I think this bag really shines as a minimal daily carry, and organizer for a larger bag when necessary. I hope they release an updated version with clips instead of gatekeepers, a zippered back pocket, an adjustment of some kind to the key strap, a carry handle and maybe a bit less structure so it can hold more.

I recently purchased the Alpaka Go Sling Nano and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. This sling is perfect for anyone who wants a compact and sleek bag that doesn't compromise on quality. The first thing I noticed about the Alpaka Go Sling Nano is its size. It's incredibly compact, making it perfect for carrying around essentials without feeling weighed down. Despite its small size, it's surprisingly spacious inside, with plenty of room for my phone, wallet, keys, and other small items. The quality of the bag is also top-notch. The materials used are durable and the construction feels solid. I especially love the microfiber lining, which helps protect my belongings from scratches and other damage. Overall, I highly recommend the Alpaka Go Sling Nano to anyone looking for a compact, high-quality bag that's perfect for everyday use. Read more
Alpaka’s Go Sling Nano is great as an EDC bag. It’s compact, but fits my essentials and little more. Everything about it - the exterior and interior material of the bag, the zippers, the strap - feels high quality and durable. The bag is well-padded, and I love that it can be both a sling and tech case (though the G-hooks are a pain to take off). If you were like me and wondering whether a Kindle can fit in the sling, I’m happy to report that it does! My Paperwhite 10th generation with a case on fits in the dedicated phone area and main area with some space leftover at the top. However, my Paperwhite 11th generation with a case on fits in the two areas, but just barely. There are a few improvements I think could be made could be made. For example, the magnetic buckle on the strap could be less bulky, the mesh pockets in the main area could have a little more depth, and the back pocket could have a zipper. Overall, I’m very impressed with the Go Sling Nano, and I anticipate that it will hold up for a long time. Read more
Fits my x100vi with installed filter and small rig grip base, and seems very well made. I can either have the camera sitting on its base to take up the length of the entire bag, or on its side to fit something else beside it. Read more
