    FULL DISCLOSURE:
    The review part of this video is not sponsored nor did I receive any money to review the item. While I sometimes get bags for free, I have to pay custom fees, shipping fees and all my videos have lots of production costs (e.g. software and music rights). Therefore I invest my own money into all of these videos and I have no intention to be biased towards a product or company. Every review and quicklook is written by me and no company can pay for preferential scheduling or what is said in the video. Furthermore, the company sees the video the same time as all viewers here on youtube. All opinions in this video are my own unless stated otherwise.

    HOW I REVIEW:
    As you might know from my „How I make a buying decision“ video: Rather than just looking at the pros, I like to evaluate the cons or flaws of an item and then evaluate if I can live with them. That is why in my video reviews I concentrate more on the cons of an item rather than going over all the features. Therefore everything shown is just a fraction of all the points that go into the verdict and score of an item.
    DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A QUICKLOOK AND A REVIEW:
    A Quicklook usually covers pre-production units or items that I only used for a short period of time. While Reviews cover final items that I have reviewed intensively.
    AFFILIATE LINKS:
    No matter if I like or dislike a product, I want to make it easy for you to check out the product yourself. Therefore I include a link of the productpage. If marked with a star *, that link is an affiliate link, meaning if you buy the product via the link you DO NOT pay more, but you will support the channel.

    I’m a new parent and a fanny pack has become an essential. It just works when you’re chasing a kid around! I use the Evergoods CAS2, but the Venture line is built great too. Thanks for the videos Bo - love them.

    Very good idea to secure the fidlock. As you say, in hot weather it is better to wear it in the waist. Very nice sling bag.

    Wasn’t a fan of ‘funny’ packs but i do love my Bellroy hip bag. It holds so much and i love not having a bag across my body. I love the material and the look. Makes me feel like i am not wearing a fanny pack…but, the fidlock does make me feel less secure about it sitting on my hips. Great idea with strap keeper.

    • @Youknowthebo

    Hey have you tried the venture 2.5L? I want something bigger than this hip pack, but I know that one is meant to be worn as a sling and just wondering how comfortable it is worn on the hips. thanks for the vid

    Lol as a Fitness Walker and Bicyclist I use a hip pack-fanny bag all the time. Some of my running and cycling tights don't have big enough pockets. (I wear compression tights on my walks-runs I got a bad knee and arthritis and I need the support and I wear a compression sleeve over my knee as a precaution)
    Lately I have gone "High Tech" I got a couple of specialized "belts" for when I go walking-running they are made to carry a water bottle and have a elastic loop for keys and a space for a mobile phone which is important because I use a fitness app to track my pace, distance and time and to listen to music.
    The one I use most often is called Flip Belt I use their water bottle and wallet when I go out to exercise.
    But something like this for going out or doing errands is nice, I don't need doggie bag but I bring a reusable shopping bag with me sometimes in case I want to pick up a few items from the store.

      That's awesome. Thanks for sharing your experience. My neighbor is bicycling a lot and he also has those specialist belt packs.

    Not a bad fanny pack but the choice of Fidlock makes it a no go.
    You are sounding much better. Hope there are no lasting effects of COVID.

    I have this pack and I use it as a sling/cross body bag. The fidlock has never once disengaged. It’s a fine little pack.

    • @Youknowthebo
      @Youknowthebo  ปีที่แล้ว

      When regular walking the fidlock never opened itself. For me it's rather those unfortunate bumps: for instance on a motorcycle with heavy gloves it actually did happen (not on this bag specifically) that I bumped against a fidlock whilst wanting to adjust the bag position. It opened whilst riding. That is why I do not trust most fidlocks on very important straps. V buckle style fidlocks are the best imho

    Was about to type a quedtion when the video played the segment on the x100 inside the bag. Did you have a filter on the camera? Also, any more space beside the camera when inside the main compartment?

    Looks like a great little pack! I’m also looking for a minimalist wallet for about 10 cards and cash capacity. Do you have any recommendations?

    • @Youknowthebo
      @Youknowthebo  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As you might have seen in this video I use the Ekster parliament wallet. It's the one I use the most. And I currently carry five cards in the aluminum main compartment (but one card has raised numbers and therefore counts as two. So overall you can fit six cards in that main slot), two cards in one of the slots outside. There are two more slots into which you can also fit two more cards per slots. There is a money band for bills. If you want a compact wallet then check out the Ekster in this video th-cam.com/video/qiVYmWqVv-I/w-d-xo.html
      That being said, ten cards plus cash is a lot and might make the compact wallet unnecessary big. Depending on how many bills you want to carry. Therefore I might recommend to check out one of the billfold from Bellroy

    I think hip packs look cool if worn to the side rather than in front. I'm kind of waiting for them to lose the stigma they have because I would totally wear one but really don't want that stigma attached to it.

    • @Youknowthebo
      @Youknowthebo  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, there is still a stigma on fanny packs. But it's slowly becoming popular again. At least it feels like it for me 😂
