Two thumbs up (👍👍) for the tomtoc EDC sling bag! I just got back from a week-long river cruise and found it to be indispensable, as I often needed to carry my phone, battery bank (my iPhone 14 Pro gulps battery power if I leave it in camera mode), wallet, passport, reading glasses, door passcard, pen, notepad, and some tissues on a daily basis. I purchased the X-Pac variation because it offered higher water-repellency and a bright orange interior which made it easy to see small, dark objects.

In the 90s we called it just out of fanny pack however it's advanced so far in Superior now to the point that we call it a sling bag because you can swing it over it's much better I think I like it over the shoulder and where you can feel this trap and everything and you have it at crisscross I like that much better me being 77 years old thanks for creating a fanny pack slash sling. over-the-shoulder I love

LOL....I no longer carry a regular camera, but I used a fanny pack/crossbody (adjustable strap) from Walmart's Outdoor Products line which I've had for awhile which is great! Inner slit mesh pockets, slightly padded, 3 zippered sections and two mesh side pockets for whatever...tissues, etc. The zippers have bigger grabs which can be used to hang small things from. I'm OLD and started traveling lite in the late 70's so all my stuff is old and amazingly still really good! That includes a folding dual voltage, adjustable speed hair dryer from a name brand hair care company that folds into a 4" rectangle..used just for travel, since 1973!!!! This plus a RFI money belt under my clothes...the pack can fold flat and I just use the money belt for the key docs, etc.

My favorite "belt bag" is mine. It is 9" w by 4" h by 6" d when fully packed. It has six zippered compartments: 2 large accessible from the top, one smaller accessible from the front and a flat wallet size one in back. There are also two where the straps attach that are perfect for cords, pods, compass, whistle ( old hikers habit in case you get lost). It has interior pockets in one of the large compartments and a key loop. I have had it over ten years and I will cry the day it wears out (it still looks and functions like new) because the company that made it no longer exists. I have also never had my fanny pack count as an item on airplanes. I love the hands free secure nature of belt bags over purses.

Totally agree about pricing on Bellboy. Just back from Seattle on SW and they were announcing that you could have a carry-on and a personal item. If you had a sling or purse or anything else, to consolidate those into the 2 allowed. Never heard that before, but, guess they are tired of people taking too large of carry-ons and personal items so this is how they are cutting back. Thought it was interesting

I have the Aer Day Sling3 and the Bellroy Lite Sling, both with magnetic buckles, and in my experience they’re not easy to undo with one hand. Once they’re locked they feel very secure and WILL NOT come undone by tugging. The would be thief, would have to have some knowledge about the precise angle you have to push the buckle. Unlikely if you ask me. I have read about users having their magnetic buckles coming undone accidentally but after 10 months of use, it hasn’t happened to me.

But how do you carry water? Very few places i travel where I don't want to bring a bottle with me. Yet with almost all of these that would take 90% of the space, or the sling is just too massive. Need a power bank and a jacket/shirt and it's too full. I just can't find a use for it when a backpack us so much more versatile, and often more comfortable. (nevermind when I travel with kids, so need ~3 waters, snacks etc! A 2 L "millennial fanny pack" just don't cut it)
