Bellroy Sling Mini Review
Here is the Bellroy Sling Mini. A 4L sling that excels at minimal carry with the ability to expand and compress. It has a handsome design that fits in urban settings best.

The new Arcteryx Mantis 1 Waistpack Revised in 2022
zhlédnutí 21KPřed rokem
Here is the revised Mantis 1 by Arcteryx. While I got this one as a gift, I have used the last version for over a year so this video will be more of an overview with highlights on the differences. I forgot to mention that since the loops where the strap is attached are more recessed into the back padding, it is now more difficult to clip on a carabiner to them. I have slide pens and markers int...
Alpaka Gear Elements Backpack Review
zhlédnutí 869Před rokem
*This bag was given for review* Here are my thoughts on the Alpaka Elements Backpack. Loving the size and minimalism of it. Also how sleek the shape is. It can hold quite a bit and not look like it. It really serves best in urban environments as there are no external attachments, hip belt accessibility, or many features in general. Key Things I Missed: Laptop sleeve is suspended Zippers are YKK...

Took a trip to Copan Ruinas and stayed in La Ceiba and San Pedro Sula on the way. Mainly just buildings but it is neat to see the difference between the three locations. San Pedro Sula being the largest and then La Ceiba and finally Copan Ruinas which is much smaller with an old world feel. There are cobblestone roads and a rich history involving the Mayan civilization. If you have the chance p...

Arc'teryx Mantis 1 Review

Here's my Arc'teryx Mantis 1! Really enjoying this bag. Haven't worn it as a fannybag...yet Find products in the video here: Arc'teryx Mantis 1: arcteryx.com/us/en/shop/mantis-1-waistpack Bellroy Notebook Cover: bellroy.com/products/notebook-cover-and-pen/leather_minirefill/graphite#slide-0 Victorinox Alox Bantam: www.swissarmy.com/ca/en/Products/Swiss-Army-Knives/Medium-Pocket-Knives/Bantam-Al...
Nice overview and example of what fits. TFS☮️
Great video. Thanks for posting!
The updated version is smaller and I regret buying it today :((
I am glad I have the older one. The new version is sleek and looks really nice but the function is lacking.
@@justinmueller790 I still have v.1 as well, but it looks tired now, so I got v.2 and got disappointed. Gifted it to a friend and ordered Mantis 2 (the 2 litre version) in Stone Wash. Waiting for it to arrive now. But people complained about v.2 of Mantis 2 as well, let’s see.
I can't find the pack with a gold logo anymore.😢
It might come back! Fingers crossed!
bro put it on!!!!
Bro has a point.... my bad!
I have the Arro waist pack and it's one of the best purchases I've made tbh. I work with conference in a distribution warehouse and I have to walk from my table a lot to inspect and sign off stuff, and this pack is really handy to me
Nice! I want to check that pack out. Sounds super useful and it would be nice to be able to carry some extra stuff with me while at work.
I.heard the strap damages your clothes... is it true?
I haven't noticed any issues. The revised version does have a thinner strap so that might dig into your clothes a little more.
very nice review, thanks. anyway is that a dog? is he alive? I thought it was a doll
Thank you! And yes haha that is in fact a dog😅 I try to walk her before I start shooting the video. Increases the chance that she will stay!
Thank u for the review
My pleasure 😊
Justin super detailed review, love it. What gear you use for making video, its crisp af man !
Thank you very much! I am using a Sony A7III with a Sigma 24-70 lens.
Video man appreciate the detail. The mini is listed as 3L but the Mantis is a 1L but doesn't seem like this is 3x bigger? Trying to decide between this or mantis 2.. any thoughts?
No problem at all! Sizing can be frustrating when comparing bags between different brands. I would say the bellroy sling mini is in between the mantis 1 and mantis 2. You can probably fit more in the Mantis 2. Go with the Mantis 2, Bellroy has some other options that are newer and take advantage of having some new features/designs.
@@justinmueller790 pulled the trigger on the mantis 2. Liking it so far, the depth of the main pocket is useful and it's much more spacious than the sling mini
@@justinmueller790 what's your favourite in the bellroy lineup for a travel sling?
Really enjoyed the video. Do you think the bag could be carried around your waist like a fanny pack?
Not on myself sadly! I would say probably not for most people. Probably better options for that!
Their stuff is overpriced and you gotta order $200 of stuff before you're offered free shipping
After seeing the items discounted on their website I thought to myself that they are more competitive now against other brands.
Have the older version and loved it. I just ordered the newer version in full black. I've seen it in store and on some people and to me it looks bigger and better constructed in terms of size and compartments. Hopefully, it won't cause any space issues, so I'll have to carry less! However, these bags are not meant to carry sunglass cases as those can be bulky and tablet-sized notebooks. They're meant for keys, phones, pens, chapstick, power banks, wallet etc. Even with the other one, if I put my glasses case in it, there wouldn't be much room for anything else.
Awesome to hear! So I get what you are saying but the notebook is quite small and same with the sunglasses case. Not hard rigid forms but rather soft and malleable. I would argue that power banks can be cumbersome, but that falls apart once you see the plethora of options and sizes. I am interested to know if you ended up with any spaces issues! I really enjoy the design of the newer model but the thinner strap was a let down for me personally. Not a big deal though as they made it easier to remove or replace. Thank you for the reply!
@@justinmueller790Hey, I’ve been using the bag for a few days now and I must say I like the previous model better! I find that if I put anything in the front zippered pocket it kinda of renders the main compartment useless! And they should have not included that inner pocket/liner, that just gets in the way too! These were issues in my previous one, but they’re even worse now with this new version.
I appreciate that you tried to fit a camera in there. I'm looking around sling reviews but no one tries to fit bigger stuff like cameras :c
No problem at all! It was one of the first things I tried when I got it. Maybe messenger bags are better for cameras.
Nice! Just subscribed. Can you tell me where you got your white tee from?
Thank you so much! It is from Jack and Jones I believe!
Moin ich bin Tim aus Niedersachsen wollte fragen zockst du auch?
Nein, das würde ich tun, wenn ich brav wäre!
Man I always swear to myself it’s my last bag, but I got the bullet 15 and loving it, but I think I want that GR1 21.
We all sound the same! lol I am always searching for the perfect bag, a never ending search!
bro did a product review and didnt even put it on, quality reporting
So true! I'll try to remember to show that. Can't call myself a professional reporter until I get those shots!
Bro wrote a comment and added 0 value. So many videos of people wearing the bag without the detail he's got. Moronic comment
Overall a great bag but the side pockets being able to fit a decent size water bottle is so underrated imo. Don't remember finding another video of another bag that has that.
And there's two of them! So great, the pop pockets are a favourite for myself.
Thank you for the video! Would it fit a regular sided book?
No problem! I don't think it would fit unfortunately. I was able to fit a fields notebook inside but nothing larger than that.
hi, the old model is also black or graphite?
Both of these are the black colour ways. The old version is fader due to being used heavily. Lots of sun exposure!
What would be the cost please? Jayakumar CHENNAI INDIA
It is $115 CAD right now :)
Yeah, yeah, yeah cool bag and all…but how about that completely zonked out pup who didn’t move a muscle for 10 minutes. Seriously thought that was a pillow.
I need to really tire her out before starting otherwise she ain't staying. She has better things to do 😂
Just brought the Heliad 6L, as my sling bag, feels pretty good, but the strap is just bit too thin, I ordered a new strap for it, should be better hahah
and also the Heliad has the same zip handle as the more expensive product line-up with the logo on it, which feels a bit more premium XD
Love it! I want to check out the Heliad but haven't seen it closely yet :( I think the thinner strap Arc'teryx went with on these is a little disappointing. It is easy to swap them out, I just wish that you had a better strap to begin with.
Great video, but if you dont mind, I would suggest you to add like a short nice transition clips about the sling and show some detail shots, that will add up the overall video :)
Thank you!! I really appreciate the tips! I'll give it a "shot" next video 😁
@@justinmueller790 Good video dude, thanks! And maybe an on-body/wearing shot or two with context of height/weight. Really helps when trying to figure out proportions/if a bag would be too big or small on my frame.
No price? 👎
Prices can fluctuate so always be sure to check it out for yourself!
@@justinmueller790 I'd rather have you save me a trip and give me a general idea of how much you got it for at the beginning of your video.
Next time!
Is it easy to bring a drone to honduras and fly? I am considering bringing my mavic air 2 on an upcoming trip but not much up to date info out there.
I did not have any issues. I had it in my carry on and had no problems!
Hi, thanks for the video. What do you think of the quality of the materials used? I read mixed reviews on this, which makes me hesitate to buy one.
I love the materials of this blue version. The materials so vary depending on the colour you choose. I will say though that this blue does not feel the most durable. Definitely more of an urban bag. For outdoor activities I use an Arcteryx Mantis 1. Much more durable and better oriented towards the outdoors!
Thanks bro
No problem!
@@justinmueller790 what model of sweater?
@@homocyberus6702 it is the delta Lt by Arc'teryx. This version is discontinued unfortunately 😞
Will a power bank, pocket wifi, sunglasses, and earbuds comfortable fit in this bag?
I think they will! The only thing I am not sure of is the power bank. I have one that is quite large and will not fit comfortably in this bag. I can fit a 10,000 mah power bank, ray ban sunglasses case, AirPods, and have extra room for more. The sling expands quite a bit but it is best to pack it when it is off body. Access can be tricky with the bag is on you. As you remove items it will naturally want to cinch down so you might have to fight it a little to get things back in.
@@justinmueller790 i currently have the tumi e-sport sling but looking at other options, this Bellroy bag seems to look very nice too. Modern wayfarer and some alpaca stuff also looks nice.
@@motorjack141 Ah I gotcha. I really enjoy the Bellroy slings, perhaps look at their newer options such as the Venture line of slings or the Lite line. I have only tried the Zip Pouch Pro and the Elements Backpack from Alpaka. They are very nice and I would highly recommend them. I cannot speak about the slings yet though!
@@justinmueller790 i will look into it. Thank you!
Great video thanks for it
Glad you enjoyed it!
3:00 after a year of owning this bag and using it every single day. I was today years old when I discovered this “compartment”
It's a gem! So handy, I often put a fisher space pen or a thin multi tool in there.
the key clip placement is really annoying, also if anything is in the way you also have to move that about, they should make it detachable to be able to move to another place if you prefer
That would be great! Love the idea of a movable key leash. The key leash placement in the front pocket was perfect and is really the only thing I would change of this new design. I don't think they will be revising this item for a bit so we will have to wait and see! Or look into doing it ourselves. I am currently using the Bellroy Sling Mini which also has a questionable key leash position. One day I will find a bag with the perfect key leash design!
@@justinmueller790 even if we find the perfect one... we'll still buy more, right? lol
@@velyvely6479 Haha! Always need more, just need a bigger space to hide them all!😅
This video is so great that very clearly, thanks for your sharing, so much details and all are helpful to think of whether should get one index👍🏻I mean I will pass it😂
Glad it was helpful! I really love these bags but only as a packable option.
great video man! i was curious what changes they made to the new one.
Oh for sure! It can be hard to tell just based off the website.
you need to let your animals outside they are under stimulated
haha no way they would be so upset if they missed me talking about a bag!
What exactly are you trying to do with this useless comment?
Glad to see you're still making videos!
Thank you so much! More to come!
I cant decide whether this or the 10! 10$ difference and i just need a backpack cus im tired of shoulder bags sliding off my winter coat
I love the size of this one. The extra room will be nice in the winter for gloves or an extra layer. Lastly, it has a zipper whereas the 10 is a drawcord and a flap that clips over. Let me know what you end up getting!

Thanks! 👍Me too! Can't get enough lol
Wow, that beaches and mountain are so beautiful.
They are! I fell in love with them and was lucky enough to climb one!
Beautiful place.
It really is! Can't wait to go back!
Great video! I just got this bag in the sunlust and whiteout colorways. Love it so far.
Good choice! It has become a daily carry for myself!
What size is your laptop? I’m wondering if my M1 16-inch MacBook Pro can fit with a sleeve on inside the laptop compartment
The laptop is the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 14 inch. I believe your laptop should fit but I would check out their website, it might have a bit more information on that.
do you think a small 35mm point and shoot camera could fit into the main compartment? been looking for a small pack like this to have my camera close on hikes.
That's a tough one, it would depend on the camera but I would recommend the Mantis 2. For larger items that are a little awkward can need more space just to be comfortable. I think it would fit better in the larger size.
I decided not to get this bag for the reason you highlighted -- it feels uncomfortable and awkward to hold items due to its complete lack of structure. I don't think I should need to modify this pack with a makeshift padding to make it more comfortable.
That is a good point! You can get bags that do similar functions but also have better back support. Check out Wandrd for a packable bag that comes with an inflated back panel.
is yours dark blue? can't tell
It is black!
