EVERYONE! I just talked to Los, the guy in charge of Data Crew, and he's provided a discount code if you'd like to get this bag: use LEDC at checkout for 10% off. It was a great conversation, and this bag IS expensive, but the materials are premium and most importantly - everything is made right here in the USA. It is a chunk of money, but this is absolutely the best sling you can buy.
$275?! Is crazy lol. Most importantly ill bling it up with my "Im here cause YOU Broke something" & "To avoid injury: Dont tell me how to do my job" patches. I also have a compact toolkit with a Leatherman Surge + Bits & LTT screwdriver and some airwedges and an Esee izula which i wrapped in olive paracord i use for work and as an EDC. Add in some wipes and a couple diapers, maybe a hotwheel or 2. and it can be my own personal dadtime sling. 😅😅😅 But for real $275?!
$275 is nuts. I wouldn’t pay anymore than $75. BUT… with 3 kids, I know exactly what would be in that sling, candy, gummy bears, bandaids, secret flask for myself, ibuprofen and air pods to block all the noise!
Even with the discount it’s $250. I got it when it was around $120ish with discount. I’m okay with that for American made but they are nuts with this new price even though I really wish I could have bought xpac
I can afford a bag like this financially. If money is not a problem, sure - buy whatever you want. Most of the new brands and bags nowadays are way overpriced, tools and knives too. Personally I find more joy watching and finding something new that has good quality and reasonable price. I just bought Tomtoc 3.5L aviator sling to use on my recent trip to Japan. It’s about $50 and it has almost the same functionality, and looks great in my opinion. Speaking of Japan, they have tons of great looking bags that are made in Japan, they are all priced crazy high just like this sling too. I can afford them but I choose not to, way too expensive for what they are.
When you said that an iPad Mini 6 can fit inside I, right away, pictured myself carrying my training “EDC” that I use to instruct my classes. My training “EDC” consist of: - iPad Mini 6 (mentioned earlier) - 3 port USB-C dongle - HDMI cable Awesome video.
I purchased the Trustfire miniX3 from watching your flashlight video. I was very interested in the bag until the price bomb was dropped. I’m a frugal feller and that price punched me in the gut. I don’t mind paying for quality but this is crazy. If I had it I would use it for my whole edc when I don’t wanna pocket/belt carry everything. For going to the pool, etc. That list includes the new light I mentioned, my Esee izula, folder of the day, rite in the rain notebook, big idea pen, bandanna, knipex cobras, adjustable wrench, Paracord, lighter with tape, arc rambler wallet, and last but not least my leatherman wave. And yeah I carry all that everywhere everyday. If you’re interested I have a video on my carry on my channel!
@@LandmanEDC Thanks so much! That really means a lot. I’m only a few weeks into doing it. I still have a ton to learn. Your edits look fantastic! I’d love to learn how to do some of that. If you tutor, I’d pay for that ! Thank you again!
What I would carry in this pouch: 1. Magic the Gathering decks, if you play I would have 2 Commander decks and some dice in my Small fry pouch 2. Data crew what-a-slider filled with tech like chargers, battery bank, adapters 3. A carabiner attached to hold my blender bottle I think the price of the bag is very much out of my budget and I would very much love to pick this up because I feel that it would hold my items safely and securely. Seeing such a high price just forces me to look for another alternative bag even though I am a big Data Crew user. Just a little sad since this company started my deep appreciation for EDC. I hope data crew releases something a little bit more on the budget side as another option, I know I would be more than happy to support that.
Fantastic review! I absolutely LOVE the Snacktime Sling. I’m really wanting to try an over the shoulder or around the waist type carry. It’s harder for me to get into my pockets now days due to an injury, so I think it would be much easier for me to carry a sling of some sort. I would definitely carry my phone, wallet, knife, flashlight, notebook and pen. I really like the space for patches too. So I can slap on what ever cool patches I am feeling that day, match an outfit or just stand out from the crowd and have my own personalization. I like the idea of the “hidden pocket” on the backside. I would try to see if an every day carry pistol would fit comfortably and safely. I would like that it would be against my body and secure while also being separate from the main front pocket with other every day items. You might even be able to slide a velcro placard of some sort inside of it and secure an extra mag and holster. I like that you have that option in the main pocket to switch between the wallet style slide pockets or the double straps to place larger pens, flashlights and knives etc. And you would already be set up to place any future panels that may come out, so I love how overall customizable this sling is. I would love to be able to easily carry and have quick access to my phone, knife, flashlight, pens, paper, multi tool, fidget toys and possibly my edc firearm. In the winter I would put gloves and a balaclava in it. And of course patches. With all of that being said, I feel like the Snacktime Sling is obviously a high value item. But 275 is extremely high. I personally can not afford that. And that’s a shame because it’s such a dope bag. But honestly, even if I could afford it, I don’t think that’s where I would spend that amount of money. Especially when I could probably find something comparable at a lower price. No doubt the value is there. But unfortunately I feel it’s way over priced. I don’t feel like the edc community wants to carry around high end “Gucci” or “Supreme” style gear as a fashion statement. At least not the edc community I see. Apologies for the long comment! I loved the video as usual and you put more gear on my radar again! I appreciate you and the time you take to show us this gear and I appreciate the reviews and honesty. Thanks man! Have a blessed day 🤘
iiiiiiiiit’s Snack Time. I would definitely carry a Manhattan Portage Coin Purse, an SAK, and an i3T. The price is outrageous, especially considering Vanquest has sturdier STRAPS!!
Great review and of course it ended on a downer as you revealed the price. That being said, this does look like a great bag, in utility, appearance, and quality. I imagine I would use it to carry notebooks, my array of pens (ballpoints, gels, and fountain), along with ear buds, charger, knife, and assorted smaller edc things. Keep up the good work and hope you hit 15k subscribers soon.

Another great video and review. I salivated over this bag...until I saw the price. Recently, after weeks of hemming and hawing, I finally took the plunge and bought the Leatherman Arc to replace my Wingman. The Arc is a luxury-like purchase of Leatherman's top-of-the-line multitool, which is far more than I need in a multitool. Amazingly, this bag costs nearly $50 more than the Arc. I don't blame Data Crew for pricing this bag at what the market will bear, but I think even $150 would be too high. So, if I were to buy this bag, I sure wouldn't be carrying an Arc in it, which I'd have to return in order to cover part of the cost of the sling. If, however, this bag magically appeared in my mailbox, I would gratefully enjoy using it to carry my shiny new Arc, my Lander 3 with new OD-green scales (to match the sling), my OD-green Olight Arkfeld Pro, my OD-green Everyman Mini-twist pen and A6-size Tomoe River notebook (thank you Marcus O'Brien for my new addiction to Japanese paper), my Nitecore iPhone charger, a small first aid (ouch-pouch) kit, and of course, my pocket Constitution (Saddleback Leather leather-bound edition). I do appreciate the copious amount of hook and loop this sling offers, enabling maximum customization and fun RE personalization. (I'd proudly display my "Best Dad Ever" patch given to me by my daughter for Father's Day.)
O’boy,,, I don’t know them went to their website 99% of items are sold out, no wonder their prices are jacked up. Much obliged Sir for the insight. Wish you all the best on your endeavors.
I would use it to carry my first aid kit pouch, charging cables, power bank, phone, bandana, and custom fixed blade box cutter. It's a great looking bag and being 100% made in USA is a big checkbox for me because I try to support America made as much as I can. I think the quality control at Data Crew is next level. I have a couple of their pouches and the stitching and everything is extremely well done. The price for me is major hump to overcome, but if it's a buy it for life type of bag it would be worth it. thanks for a chance. nice breakdown of the bag too.
As soon as you said a iPad Mini, I wanted the bag. It would be the perfect tech bag for me. My mini, power bank, charging cords and a power plug 🔌. The price is out of my range in this economy. If I spend that kind of money it’s for family use, this is more a single person use.
I’m a huge data crew fan, I have several T shirts I wear all the time, patches, RE’s, reaper danglers on my backpack, stickers, etc. I want that snack time sling bad but I cannot justify $275 for it. I would carry my normal EDC items in it. Knife, flashlight, pen and also my new digital compact camera. Trying to take more photos everyday and get off my phone. I ended up getting an Alpaka elements tech case mini which is smaller than the snack time sling, but more affordable at around $45. They have a bigger one for $80 and a max for under $100.
The sling looks good but I really can’t justify that insane price. I’d rather just buy discounted slings from Alpaka or use my Tomtoc Wander sling. I also have a Lochby pocket journal, smaller Notorious edc case, Switch, fountain pens and a Nitecore power bank and a small charging cable kit that I carry in my Tomtoc sling.
Hi, my name is Nelly. I just ordered the bag a week ago. I love it so much. I carry my medical supplies inside. I’m a medical assistant one of the things I carry in my bag and shears and two other things I carry in my bag is my medical kid along with my flashlight, which which is also a wuben I tried to close my eyes on the price, but I will also like to get one for my son that’s upcoming, but it’s way too much for me because I’m just an assistant
The price is hard to swallow. But it was also hard to swallow when I bought my Honda van and it's lasted a very long time for my family. You truly get what you pay for, and I'm glad you bought this for your job!
I thought you did a good job on telling about the bag,I have been wanting one of them cents I hear about it, I work as janitor,floor tech, so I carry a lot of stuff. I carry a cheap knife,multitool,keys,I don’t have name brand stuff there’s more I could carry but can’t the bag would be awesome too have. But it’s too expensive at 275 it’s just out of my budget but I know there are going too a lot more good comment for the bag I hope I get too be the lucky person that you randomly choose. Thank you for reading this and hope you have wonderful blessed day or night or evening
For the price of 275 I would be out on it. I feel for the everyday person that can buy a lot of groceries or gas. For me in the sling, I carry a lot of things in my pockets and people often why do you carry a lighter, do you smoke? No but you just never know when it can be handy. I would carry a mulitool, a good flashlight, small first aid kit, pen and paper, possibly pepper spray. The list can continue, stay after it! Thanks for your videos!
Sure, depending on the pen, I use the Schmidt EasyFlow 9000 medium refill. I think in the specific shorter Tactile Turn pens like the one in the video that they come with a Pilot G2 Mini 0.7mm refill. Thanks for your question!
I would use it as a travel sling with passport, pen, notebok because it´s an ideal size and i like it very much but it´s too expensive...Probably around $150 USD would be perfect!
Nice list. After talking with Los at Data Crew, the costs for an American-made bag like this makes $150 out of the question. Why are other brands like Vanquest and Tomtoc able to make bags so cheap? 1) materials are good but not nearly as high-quality as this and 2) overseas labor. This is all USA-made, and we know American ain’t cheap these days!
I think that I would Cary my small Bible an extra pen and if I had on of those field notes pouches it would for sure be in it. Basically a 2nd edc lol I'm trying to get into a job working with suicide prevention right now and the items would have to fit the job. I imagine the give away is long over so congratulations to whoever got it! It saddens me to hear the price but I do understand the quality craftsmanship comes at a premium. That being said, that's nuts.
Great bag but too expensive. I bought a similar bag for under 75 dollars and found pouches just like the datacrew mini pouches for under 20 dollars. I did not mention the brands on purpose. I would carry my iPad mini, fisher space pens, small journal, knife, a multitool, and some pepper spray.
The price is nonsensical. It makes no sense. I usually carry in my sling: galaxy buds pro, fisher space bullet pen, small notebook, wallet, keys, joby one tripod, and victorinox mini champ. If I am out all day i will throw in a powerbank and cable and a snack. My sling is also the collection bag for my daughters things as they fall on the floor, jajajajaja.
Gotcha! I agree the price doesn't make much sense - UNTIL you factor in super high-grade materials and Made in the USA. Still, out of range for some. Appreciate your comment!
The price doesn’t make sense. Even Defy out of Chicago makes in house and their Parker sling is great. AER and Tom bihn also make killer slings without this markup.
I do think they may have missed out on lots of potential customers by making the price as high as it is, but I will say that this bag is even better put together than any Tom Binh or Aer bag I've owned or seen. It really is that good. Is it $275 good? That's all up to the person buying it I guess.
I saw this bag then i saw the price 😂 ended buying re’s 😅 i would love to have this bag a put a lot of my gears, flashlights pens wallet sharpies knives flashlight keys notepad ,im gonna load it up for sure and rock it in my daily😅 and i have already bought the patch for this bag 😂 RAD🤙🏽
I honestly cannot buy a bag at that price. It’s way too expensive. I would carry my iPad mini 6, QSP Penguin Knife, Klarus E5 flashlight, pen, field notes, dude wipes, lip balm, hand sanitizer and a few snacks. Thanks for the opportunity!!
I would use the bag to carry my samsung s23 ultra as it is just too big to hand carry all the time and doesn't fit well in pocket. Would additionally carry my handmade leather wallet and knife slip with the qsp penguin as I love patina, but hate scratches. Price - it is about as affordable as my S23 ultra is carryable.
You are lucky to have one. I would love that bag. I would have a knife a light and some first aid items and a small charger. I would never be able to afford the price o❤f this bag. I would probably also have a container for medications and a small pen and notepad
Man... $275 is a lot but it'd hold my custom icon tool kit, a nice bamboo covered notebook, and wiha mini kit. There's a LOT of room in there but $275 invested in the S&P 500 at an average return of %10 over 30 years is almost $5,000. That's what this company is asking me to do. Rob my future self of $5,000. It's probably a great bag but my credit card won't be swiped for one. Bummer.
Brother. I think about this CONSTANTLY just like you. I’m always asking myself “$100 spent now is like $1000 (or more) invested in 10 years.” I completely get it! Which is why if anyone buys this bag, I’m completely confident that it will be their last.
Yeah the cost stinks but the product you get is unreal. I’ve talked with Data Crew and they are offering a discount code if you’re interested. In the pinned comment on this video.
The price is far too high for me to buy one. I have the original and carry a loaded out small fry and what a junior in mine. Mini bic and visine fit those small stretchy pockets well…
Price is too high. I’d carry a flashlight, multitool, Wysi wipes, boom stick, handkerchief, small water bottle, hand sanitizer, bandaids and some assorted medicines.
Yeah I understand what you’re saying, but you could literally say that about any product. I could get *this* for what I would pay for *that*. But sometimes you just want what you want. I disagree on the “ripoff design” as well. I think this is fairly unique especially given that it can keep its shape. That being said, you can only do so much with a sling bag/fanny pack.

If a robber pulled a gun on me while I was carrying that bag, I would ask them if they would please just take the contents and let me keep the bag.

Yeah it’s a premium cost but it’s a premium bag for sure. Thanks for your comment!

Thank you for watching!
Great video!
Could you please share what is the specific pen refill model?
Thank you.
Sure, depending on the pen, I use the Schmidt EasyFlow 9000 medium refill. I think in the specific shorter Tactile Turn pens like the one in the video that they come with a Pilot G2 Mini 0.7mm refill. Thanks for your question!
I would use it as a travel sling with passport, pen, notebok because it´s an ideal size and i like it very much but it´s too expensive...Probably around $150 USD would be perfect!
Nice list. After talking with Los at Data Crew, the costs for an American-made bag like this makes $150 out of the question. Why are other brands like Vanquest and Tomtoc able to make bags so cheap? 1) materials are good but not nearly as high-quality as this and 2) overseas labor. This is all USA-made, and we know American ain’t cheap these days!
Love your review. I have the version 1 and I agree that it is overpriced for us average consumers
Thanks for watching!
I think that I would Cary my small Bible an extra pen and if I had on of those field notes pouches it would for sure be in it. Basically a 2nd edc lol I'm trying to get into a job working with suicide prevention right now and the items would have to fit the job. I imagine the give away is long over so congratulations to whoever got it! It saddens me to hear the price but I do understand the quality craftsmanship comes at a premium. That being said, that's nuts.
Bible’s always good on the EDC 😁😉 thanks for watching!
Great bag but too expensive. I bought a similar bag for under 75 dollars and found pouches just like the datacrew mini pouches for under 20 dollars. I did not mention the brands on purpose. I would carry my iPad mini, fisher space pens, small journal, knife, a multitool, and some pepper spray.
Great list! Thanks for watching.
The price is nonsensical. It makes no sense.
I usually carry in my sling: galaxy buds pro, fisher space bullet pen, small notebook, wallet, keys, joby one tripod, and victorinox mini champ. If I am out all day i will throw in a powerbank and cable and a snack.
My sling is also the collection bag for my daughters things as they fall on the floor, jajajajaja.
Gotcha! I agree the price doesn't make much sense - UNTIL you factor in super high-grade materials and Made in the USA. Still, out of range for some. Appreciate your comment!
The price doesn’t make sense. Even Defy out of Chicago makes in house and their Parker sling is great. AER and Tom bihn also make killer slings without this markup.
I do think they may have missed out on lots of potential customers by making the price as high as it is, but I will say that this bag is even better put together than any Tom Binh or Aer bag I've owned or seen. It really is that good. Is it $275 good? That's all up to the person buying it I guess.
I saw this bag then i saw the price 😂 ended buying re’s 😅 i would love to have this bag a put a lot of my gears, flashlights pens wallet sharpies knives flashlight keys notepad ,im gonna load it up for sure and rock it in my daily😅 and i have already bought the patch for this bag 😂 RAD🤙🏽
Haha nice, thanks for watching!
@@LandmanEDC thanks man
I honestly cannot buy a bag at that price. It’s way too expensive. I would carry my iPad mini 6, QSP Penguin Knife, Klarus E5 flashlight, pen, field notes, dude wipes, lip balm, hand sanitizer and a few snacks. Thanks for the opportunity!!
I get that! I do! Thanks for your loadout list - very nice.
I would use the bag to carry my samsung s23 ultra as it is just too big to hand carry all the time and doesn't fit well in pocket. Would additionally carry my handmade leather wallet and knife slip with the qsp penguin as I love patina, but hate scratches.
Price - it is about as affordable as my S23 ultra is carryable.
Ha!
Based out of California. I’ll bet that’s why this bag is so expensive. Cost of living in California is through the roof.
Yeah looks like a great bag might go for it at 175
I get that! Thanks for watching!
You are lucky to have one. I would love that bag. I would have a knife a light and some first aid items and a small charger. I would never be able to afford the price o❤f this bag. I would probably also have a container for medications and a small pen and notepad
Right on! Thanks for your comment!
I've been toying with the idea of getting one of their products for a while now... Maybe it's time
This is incredible - but expensive. It will last you forever the way it’s built!
Man... $275 is a lot but it'd hold my custom icon tool kit, a nice bamboo covered notebook, and wiha mini kit. There's a LOT of room in there but $275 invested in the S&P 500 at an average return of %10 over 30 years is almost $5,000. That's what this company is asking me to do. Rob my future self of $5,000. It's probably a great bag but my credit card won't be swiped for one. Bummer.
Brother. I think about this CONSTANTLY just like you. I’m always asking myself “$100 spent now is like $1000 (or more) invested in 10 years.” I completely get it! Which is why if anyone buys this bag, I’m completely confident that it will be their last.
I love the bag. Until i seen the price.
Completely understand
$275 is a deal killer!
Yeah the cost stinks but the product you get is unreal. I’ve talked with Data Crew and they are offering a discount code if you’re interested. In the pinned comment on this video.
I love it, but It is way too expensive. I would have my favorite civivi thug blackout, data what-a-junior pouch. And some Medication.
Nice!
Wondering about updates on give away?
Coming very soon! Needed to delay and keep the Snacktime sling a little longer for a comparison video. Will update soon.
The price is far too high for me to buy one. I have the original and carry a loaded out small fry and what a junior in mine. Mini bic and visine fit those small stretchy pockets well…
Nice, good to know. Thank you for watching!
Price is too high. I’d carry a flashlight, multitool, Wysi wipes, boom stick, handkerchief, small water bottle, hand sanitizer, bandaids and some assorted medicines.
Sweet, thanks for your comment!
275$ for rip off design….i can get an ultra and dynema verison from chuyentactical and still got alot to spare….
Yeah I understand what you’re saying, but you could literally say that about any product. I could get *this* for what I would pay for *that*. But sometimes you just want what you want.
I disagree on the “ripoff design” as well. I think this is fairly unique especially given that it can keep its shape. That being said, you can only do so much with a sling bag/fanny pack.
Fuck all those patches man I just don’t see the draw it’s like collecting garbage pail kids cards . Aer day sling 3 all day 99 bucks .
Ok understood
