That little speech at the end got me. It’s been a couple months since I started getting into pouches and sling bags and EDC organization, and it definitely has boosted my confidence in the sense of feeling prepared and like I’ve got my sh*t together. I’ve always been a disorganized student, very unreliable and unprepared, and all the pouches and bags that keep my stuff organized in an appealing way have made a difference. Thanks for your content man, you help out a lot more than you might think.
Damn . I thought most people won’t even make it to the end to hear that speech . 😂 it’s easy to be prepared and organised when everything has its own place . You just gotta sow sure you put everything back where it belongs . Thank you so much for the comment . You made my morning mate . Appreciate the kind words ! Respect 🫡
Great video…. Very informative. As usual my conclusion is, that (for me) there’s no perfect size solution. I wish there was a size between the regular, & the mini. That would be the sweet spot for me.
As much as i wanted the regular size, I went for the mini. I have a really bad shoulder and have been trying to simplify my life some. For the every day essentials, its perfrct. Itll prevent me from spending money to fill something with things i may not need to make the bag too heavy to carry due to my bad shoulder. Im very happy with the materials. Great customer service, too.
Fifth video I've watched comparing these two and yours made up my mind for me. The way you demoed the stuff they can hold, how the regular size can sit standing up and open on a table, and the side-by-side overhead view - these all perfectly helped me decide to order the regular size (although now I've learned there's a "Max" size, too, so I have to watch a couple vids on that, but I think it's too large for my needs). Thanks Andre!
All good brother ! Glad I can help . Yeah , I think if you’re gonna do a review you have to give people an idea of what it fits . I don’t like specs and theory , I want to see real world practical uses . Thank you for the amazing comment ! It’s appreciated . 💪🏼
I got the Mini and the Max version in blue, but I eventually ended up going back to my old Eastpak Twink for EDC use because it offers more space on the inside while being less bulky. It's a shame they don't make that one anymore (my old bag look fine from the outside, but the lining is mostly gone).
Great timing. I was literally thinking about a comparison of these two yesterday because I didn't know there was a tech mini. Love my regular Elements case
I’ve been eyeballing the Tech case Max. It’s jut a bit thicker than the regular size so it’s not like it’s adding too much bulk but you don’t have to worry about not being able to close it. Also love the closing remarks. My husband thinks I’m neurotic with OCD, but when he needs a Tylenol or a charging cable he always has to ask me, and I’ve always got him covered 😂
It’s the same at my work . Whenever anyone needs anything , they come to me first . My powerbank is on loan 24/7 😂 . I don’t have understand people that don’t build their own little survival kits 😂
I am already waiting on my order from alpaca to get here. Didn’t know about the notebook. I hope I get one….I know silly to want a little notebook when I am getting the bag I want. Is it a dot grid or graph or lined or blank sheets. I am needing new notebooks - hope it 3.5 mm grid and fits in my passport TN….thanks for the comparison.
I bought mine over 2 years ago . Not sure if they still do it ? The pages are plain , no lines or dots . Let me know how you go . Thanks for stopping by .
Thanks for the code! I got myself the Tech case mini since I like my phone and wallet on the front of my body. I am 5'2", and as small as that tech case mini looks in Andre's hand, i actually found it quite big relative to my torso, and I had a good laugh when I put it on for the first time and looked at the mirror. It still works very well though :p
Haha . Yeah , I do mention my size quite often but maybe I should mention it more . I’m a bit of a freak of nature . 😂 I’m 6foot4 and 150kg (300lbs) . My hands are the size of kitchen plates 😂 The tech case mini is so sick . It’s built amazingly well . I hope it ends up working out for you . 😂✌🏼✌🏼
@@OGtalks The pro strap I bought did end up salvaging the situation quite well in my opinion, I made the straps as short as possible to match my height, fortunately for me the shortest length I could make it was a workable length for my build. I think the pro strap definitely looks better than the included strap as long as we are willing to shell out the extra $$ for a better sling experience.
Yes 100% I just tried it with my Rayban’s and case . The front zip section fits them perfectly . Also in the middle inside fits them perfectly too . 💪🏼
Wasn’t going to but I could make that happen . I saw them at ALPAKA the other day . They look great . I’m gonna have to borrow one I think . Stay tuned 💪🏼

Epic review 💪 love the new setup. Very smooth transitions to and from top down view 😎
Much appreciated! Legend ! 💪🏼

It’s crazy . I’m on the other side of the spectrum . For me the strap is never long enough..
I got the mini, and I sorta wish I got the regular. The weight is not so different, but that extra width would be helpful.
Just get both brother . You can never have enough . 😂🫡
Excellent comparison! Great video 👍
Thank you mate !! You’re a legend Jeremy !! 🫡🫡
did you get the mini in ecopak version or x-pac ?
Hey mate . Mine was x-pac .. hope that helps . 🫡
I wonder about mini version. Does it fit a Ray-Ban sunglasses in a hard case?
Yes 100% I just tried it with my Rayban’s and case . The front zip section fits them perfectly . Also in the middle inside fits them perfectly too . 💪🏼
thank you very much 🙏@@OGtalks
Will you do a review on new alpaka metro sling bag?
Wasn’t going to but I could make that happen . I saw them at ALPAKA the other day . They look great . I’m gonna have to borrow one I think . Stay tuned 💪🏼
@@OGtalks thank you😬😬
Big drizlax! where you been
Oh , I’m back mo-foz !!! 😂✌🏼
Love seeing the parker pen 🙂 i use a sling bag everyday thank for the video Andre my friend
Hey mate . Hope you’re well .. I wasn’t a huge fan of slings but I’ve definitely changed my tune . They’re perfect in so many ways . Huge convert .. 😂
For a second I thought these were Adidas cases due to the huge Adidas logo.
ALPAKA . 😂😂 I wish adidas did tech cases . That would be very cool !
By “sling”, you mean “handbag”??? Love your work champion. #readyforwar #adidas
Yeah , a murse of sorts ! 😂 thanks for stopping by mate ! 💪🏼
