I’ve been carrying an EDC bag, GHB bag and some EDC items on my person everyday for several years and I’m still shocked on how much stuff you fit into that sling bag! That’s an excellent EDC! Thank you for the great content and video! I’m a new sub!
Hi Dean, glad you are traveling again so we can see the items in action. I have the 7L Bellroy made from recycled material. Doesn't have water resistant zip like yours nor does it have wide opening one side - which is probably the biggest weakness for my sling. The second weakness for me is that it is a cat hair magnet from our Siberian Forest cat - red cat fur seems like stick like a magnet. I have the same Shure headphones but with a cheap replacement cable as the old ones failed on me but still quite good. And my camera of choice is either a Ricoh GR 2 or Fuji X100S. Sometimes an Olympus film range finder camera. But anything bigger means I can't use my sling. And I have a Bellroy passport wallet. I am forever tinkering since I can't settle on what to carry. Look forward to hearing how your setup worked for you.
Bellroy have a new 7L called the "sling lite" that looks interesting, it has the same waterproof zip as this one that opens to the size for fuller access too. Im curious to try it as a smaller sling might suit me better. Those cameras are great, I was kind of wishing I kept my Sony ZV1 because the pocket point and shoots are really very packable more than a mirrorless
I cant think of any off the top of my head but Side by Side gear make this pouch for masks sidebysidegear.com/collections/travel-accessories/products/side-by-side-kit
Yeah I almost got that one but was worried the camera might make it bulk out too much. Might still get it and review/compare it though because I love how light it is. Id love to change over the the ipad mini again. The updated screen and pen look great.
Thanks for this! I always learn about something new. Man, I sure look forward to getting back on the road. BTW, I love the hearclips. I would say though, that they could use a more substantial foot for hanging from tables. I just use the large for everything and then hand hang everything from my EDC bag to full on travel pack from chair backs or stall hooks (or in America, stall doors). Cheers!
I’m not sure why I waited for so long to get the 9L. I’ve owned the 7L for a while but I think that Bellroy pouches run “small”…so the 9L looks promising!
My EDC backpack is the Arktype Dashpack. Great for work and commute and is solidly built but expensive. Otherwise I have a patagonia 5L black hole waist pack for lighter carry. I have also used a 10L decathalon bag, and kind of replaced it with a 16L matador daylite, as a day bag
I used the 10L decathlon bag before too but the packable one is good for just in case. I havent tried the matador daylite yet but I tried a similar Chinese knock off from NatureHike that was good but the zips often got stuck and werent particularly smooth. How are the matador zips?
@@PackingLess I'm pretty sure I got the decathalon bag because you did a video on it. But the matador zips are great so far. I have not had an issue, although I've never filled it to full capacity. I've put in gym clothes, a filled 48oz Nalgene bottle, and some miscellaneous items in it and had no problems
@@PackingLess Fairly bulky is the right way to put it. I just measured it in its bag and it's about 5.5 inches x 3 x 2.75. When traveling I usually lay it flat underneath my largest packing cube, or flat in the laptop compartment, and it feels like it takes up no space
Good day! May i ask if the interior are able to stick to some dividers. Im planning to put some from my peak design bag but idk if the fabric inside lets me stick them
how do you still have the chums logo on your wallet? mine peeled off after a couple of weeks of everyday use. i bought it for travelling but i started enjoying it so much that i use it daily now and it also holds my house keys. but it feels like i will have to buy a new one every year or so because the quality is not good enough. the color on the zippers is also half peeled off and the fabric loop holding the keys has started to tear
Yeah its a great wallet, really handy for coins/cash. The chums logo on mine is stitched on and I just noticed it has a thread loose so might be peeling soon lol
Ya viste la 10L camera edition? No soy fotógrafo profesional pero quiero una mochila cómo estás, para salir al día a día y si ocupo llevar mi cámara pueda llevarla. Y si no solo la mochila con todo mi día a día! Cual crees que es ella mejor?
sí vi la edición 'cámara'. No creo que valga la pena el dinero extra o el peso. Los compartimentos acolchados no son extraíbles y limita la versatilidad de la bolsa.
@@PackingLess tienes razón en cuanto a versatilidad! Ya que un día puedes únicamente llevar tu cámara y si quieres llevar cosas de tu día a día será algo “extraño” o complicado

Thank you and welcome. Yeah I was surprised how much stuff the venture sling holds too. Its very versatile

That's a neat carrying case for the mask. And much respect for brining treats with you.
The mask came with this case and it is very handy. I cant help myself when it comes to cats. the street cats here are very cute
@@PackingLess Have you come across any similar cases/flat pouches like that? Hope you're having a fun trip.
I cant think of any off the top of my head but Side by Side gear make this pouch for masks sidebysidegear.com/collections/travel-accessories/products/side-by-side-kit
Nice review! I carry Bellroy Light Sling - similar capacity, half the weight.
Instead of the camera I carry iPad Mini in it.
Yeah I almost got that one but was worried the camera might make it bulk out too much. Might still get it and review/compare it though because I love how light it is. Id love to change over the the ipad mini again. The updated screen and pen look great.
Wow. Can’t believe how much stuff came out of that little bag.
Thanks for this! I always learn about something new. Man, I sure look forward to getting back on the road.
BTW, I love the hearclips. I would say though, that they could use a more substantial foot for hanging from tables. I just use the large for everything and then hand hang everything from my EDC bag to full on travel pack from chair backs or stall hooks (or in America, stall doors).
Cheers!
Thanks yeah the heroclips are great for bathroom stall doors without hooks. I've come across surprisingly quite a few of them in this trip so far
I’m not sure why I waited for so long to get the 9L. I’ve owned the 7L for a while but I think that Bellroy pouches run “small”…so the 9L looks promising!
The cat food is a nice touch 😻
I love feeding the local street cats

@@329bt it’s a great bag, but if I recall it’s fairly bulky when stuffed into its bag right

@@329bt laying it flat is a great idea!
Thanks you for tour video. Just a question. With all your gear, the bag is confortable ? It s not heavy to carry on your shoulder ?
I never found it uncomfortable on my shoulder but I guess for some people it could be.
Good day! May i ask if the interior are able to stick to some dividers. Im planning to put some from my peak design bag but idk if the fabric inside lets me stick them
Its a smooth interior so I dont think any velcro would stick there. But perhaps some kind of box insert might fit
@@PackingLess thank you for the response:)
Which color do you think is the best, is it suitable for storing cosmetics?
Whichever you like
how do you still have the chums logo on your wallet? mine peeled off after a couple of weeks of everyday use. i bought it for travelling but i started enjoying it so much that i use it daily now and it also holds my house keys. but it feels like i will have to buy a new one every year or so because the quality is not good enough. the color on the zippers is also half peeled off and the fabric loop holding the keys has started to tear

An umbrella wounds be a nice addendum in the tropics. (For boto Sun And rain)
Funny I did get caught in the rain actually and wished Id bought my mini umbrella. Its definitely something I'll add when I get back home
Where did you get those little plastic cases from¿?
from chemist warehouse in Australia, these ones amzn.to/3KMFoXK are quite similar
@@PackingLess thanks!
Hi,,can you share your baseball cap? Its interesting it can be folded like that
Thanks
Sure, thats the Western Rise Versa Cap www.pntrs.com/t/2-489977-189816-170834
Please share link of your passport holder/wallet.
I cant find it on the AmazonUS site, but its available from the UK one and I think they ship internationally fave.co/33Qpvig
Could you talk more clear? I can’t really understand
because of the accent or because of the microphone?
After 6 years you’ll get used to it.
@@PackingLess For what it's worth you spoke really clearly - as always. Great video & glad to see you travelling again!
@@PackingLess your slurred speech and accent too
@@jackeddemon thanks for the feedback, I’ll try to enunciate more clearly
