Great size!
Used this during our shore excursions on a recent cruise. Carried everything we needed safely and was easy to use as a sling for my wife and myself. Highly recommend for those doing travel in or outside the U.S.

This is my first sling bag and am loving it so far! It's big enough for carrying the essentials and I find it much more comfortable and less cumbersome than a backpack. The pockets and zipped net inside provide just the right amount of 'separation' between items. The locking outer zip also provides a welcome added level of security and worry reduction, especially in busy places. The bag seems to be made to a high standard and feels robust. I would definitely recommend it!
I love it, it is good size to used it.
I love my sling bag and have carried it all over the Mediterranean countries. It’s very comfortable and the inside pockets are designed well so I know where my items are. It has a perfect spot for my passport. I’ve carried a water bottle in it easily and it never seems too heavy for my shoulders, even though I’m a small 5’1”
I'll give the bag itself 5 stars - I like its operation, organization, and it feels secure (thankfully not tested on this trip). I bought prior to a trip thinking it was the right size as a single everyday pack. However, after a couple days I realized that I hadn't thought carefully about my needs. Only a couple things actually need to be both secure and readily accessible -- think phone, a credit card or two, hotel key, maybe passport. Everything else for day to day use - umbrella, water bottle, power bank, first aid kit, hat, kids stuff, pen, hand sanitizer, etc etc, -- doesn't really need to be secure, and it gets annoying to keep opening your "secure storage" every time you need a napkin (and the bag was a little small for some days). Personally, I think I would have been better off with a substantially smaller secure cross body bag, coupled with a regular backpack for all the other stuff that I wanted to carry most days but usually don't feel the need to be super secure about - if someone steals my water bottle its not the end of the world.
So, to summarize, I have no complaints about the bag itself. However, think carefully about how you plan to use it and what you want to keep in it before deciding if its the right thing, or if a smaller or larger bag might be more suitable.
I would offer one suggestion though for this bag -- having a smaller externally accessible pocket for just a phone plus one or two cards would be useful. Especially when navigating transit in an…
