Yea I think they are a bit stuck in their ways/stubborn on some basic shit, but they literally have a cult-like following so whatever they are doing is working loll
I’ve had this one for about a year and it’s my favorite sling. The buckle situation is not a problem and I am big enough that I don’t have an issue with any extra straps lining.
I prefer a more angled sling cut, but I was really considering this one cause I liked that olive and burgundy. But it looks like the max circumference of this sling is 47” ish and I have a 48” chest. I’ve measured some of my other slings at their most comfortable and it looks like I need about 49-50”.
A+ review, seriously considering this one. I'm really more interested in the Fyro sling, but waiting for an update on timeline for that one. Have you done a review on the Thule waxed canvas Aion Sling Bag? Pack Hackers did a B tier review on it, but I really only trust Nomads Nation for my bag reviews.
Hey Aaron, ive been watching your videos bcse im looking for the perfect Sling. So Far i love your videos, keep going. Have seen so many bag reviews even though i dont even need a new bag haha. Im looking for a slim and small sling that can fit an ipad mini, like as slim and small as possible when it can contain an ipad mini. Cant wait for your new Video !
thanks dude! I don't have an iPad mini so not sure what's the best option for you, but below is a playlist of all the sling bags we have ever reviewed. Best of luck! th-cam.com/video/llTVoQ3oMZI/w-d-xo.html
Hey Aaron! Have you ever tried to measure the internal volume of a bag using packing peanuts? It might be really interesting to compare your testing with what companies advertise.
Hey there! I love your reviews and I just signed up for your newsletter to get in on the giveaways! I wanted to let you know I have found one other sling that has a water bottle holder compartment. It also has crazy organization. You might want to review it. It’s the inateck sling bag. I just bought it and I’m liking it so far. I would be interested to hear your thoughts on it in a video though and I also just like helping other people find slings. I’m super glad I found your channel and nomads nation. Have a great day!
Re: The dangle. The Evergoods sling actually does have dangle stoppers -- the best on the market, in my opinion. They are so low key and functional that that's probably why everyone over looks them. Look at the end of the straps, there are elastic loops that hold the dangle in place. Also, this review doesn't really mention that there's a "hidden" pocket at the very front, where you can put your water bottle or an anorak.
You are talking about the Evergoods MHP not the CAS2. The CAS2 does not have strap keepers or the front hidden pocket but the MHP does. However Evergoods did just update the CAS2 with a new strap system including a keeper. Have both the MHP and CAS2 love them both. Just ordered the updated CAS2
The Burgundy color is available at a discount. But given that all other colors are sold out *and* they are selling the last available option at a discount I am guessing that a V2 is on the way (hopefully with better strap management).
I’m Team Sling. Will never wear as a fanny, which makes this a compromised design IMO. But it’s the lack of dangle stoppers that kills me. I rock a CPL 28L as my EDC and one-bag travel. Its only flaw is dangle. Forgivable on a pack, but not a sling. #stopthedangle
Cowabunga.! Just do what we do, mod the damn thing. It's fun customization & it gives character to your carry. Make the Sling yours. Make it one of a kind. Make it work for you. Remember Inspector Gadget.?

That strap situation is horrible. Cuz it's not just one flop but two flops you have to deal with. How much do those elastic thingies cost? 10¢?
And you KNOW those dudes at Evergoods *know* better. Which makes it worse.

Good to know, thanks dude!
i'm a sling guy so the sling cut every day of the week .... cool vlog as always.
Thanks dude, and I agree 💪🏻

At least that means if you wear it you won’t have to deal with the dangle 😆
Thanks for the review! Are ya’ll plannin to review the EverGoods MHP?
Not on the radar yet, but hopefully in early 2024

Thanks so much! Haven't reviewed any Thule bags soon, hoping to soon. Fyro sling is moving a bit slow, hoping for updates in the next month or so
A collapsible bottle like those made by Vapur work super well with the CAS2.
Good call!
Love your energy…. I want to see how your sling/fanny design will look like… I really love the CAS 2 design
Me too! And thank you 🙏🏽
Will you be reviewing their hip pack 3.5L?
Saw their solution to the strap dangle and want to know your thoughts on it
hopefully soon! I'm excited to check it out
Is this the version 2, i noticed that the inside not orange now.
Yes this is v2, only their limited editions have orange interior

We are going to start doing that in 2024! Already bought the system (using silicone balls, not peanuts lol)

best of luck!

Don’t know if you hace reviewed it, but the X-Pod II seems to also be capable of carrying a water bottle
Have not yet, will add to our wish list

You're vevy nice guy!!! Appreciate it.アリガトウ

The Evergoods Boys need to collaborate with the Bellroy Boys on the attachment points. Fanny packs are not slings, mind the gap.
Some ppl might like the option. I am not one of those ppl lol

for sure! but at this price point I kinda want it done for me 😂
Sign me up for the Nomads Nation sling
Fyro* sling
I am in the cult
