    The Moment sling is one of my favorite travel gear. It might look small but it holds a lot and is super lightweight. I usually pack a foldable shopping bag (a Baggu), a pack of tissues, a phone, a wallet, lip balm, keys, and all the usual stuff.

    After having watched a lot of your packing videos, I would like to see in the future is to have the total cost of items that you have packed in loadout videos like this one. With awareness that we as the viewer could click on each item and visit your site and add it up individually, it'd be more helpful if price is included in the video beside each item or something of that nature as you have done in the past. Cheers.

    Your Packing Lists are my favorite. I hope you do a lot of contents like these in the future. Looking forward to your updated packing lists. I hope you also have something for those who need to pack for just 7kg especially if you're going to somewhere cold. I had a bit of a hard time packing when i went to Korea last month with just a carry on. :(

    4:45 The Victorinox Keychain Coupler is something I highly recommend when seeing someone take off some keys . I use it daily to disconnect my carkey from the rest so it does not dangle around while driving and also when I go for a run, I undo the car key and leave the rest in the car for minimal carry on the trail.

      If you have access to a sewing machine or have enough patience to hand stitch: learning how to add pockets (or even just one for the phone/keys) is a game changer! Granted, it doesn’t work on all garments but usually if there is a seam, there is a way :)

    Wow, I did the same as my sling too by attaching carabiner for holding my water or extra stuff. The idea came to me when I went for a hike and forgot to bring the day pacķ. And it became a habits since then. And some of my friend even follow along using my style 😁

    I've been using a very old Lululemon fanny pack as my sling. phone, minimal keys, ear buds, and 2 small pouches, one for key cards, one for small amounts of cash. It's mostly don't-get-locked-out-of the home or office stuff. It's the perfect size and somewhat low key. Unfortunately, it wasn't made to be worn crossbody so the fabric unravels at the seams. I've handstitched a ribbon to the seam for reinforcement. I may consider a mini Alpaka tech case someday. I wore the medium tech case as a sling for awhile and loved it, but really needed it as a tech case.

    I used to use a ginormous sling when biking, but I've gone a lot smaller with a simple one pocket sling pouch that fits about 0.5 L--means that I pack my tools and pump onto the bike in a bike bag, and basically just carry phone, transit pass and keys in the sling--so much lighter and easy to carry, and easier to walk around (assuming that hopefully no one will touch my bike).

    thank you, well pretty similar only that sling a bit bigger, so that a little water battle 250-300ml will be possible to put , when it is such a route, difficult to pick up a glas of water on the go, not good quality around or no time or sitting in an office waiting etc. And... when I use a day-pack - I just through the sling inside, without changing to a smaller bag ;)

    One of the things that's become a "must pack" for me, especially post-covid is a buff. A buff is just a good thing to have whether youre going to a snowier or sandier climate, and it can double as a face mask or an eye mask if the need arises

    My everyday carry is very similar to Tom’s setup. I also use the Bellroy venture ready sling and in the front I carry my orbitkey. Key organizer on the key clip and my car fob with and air tag attached on that side and the other side I carry my air pods pro and some sun bum lip balm. In the middle I have a medium sized hero clip, yellow in charge XL 6in 1cable, an anger MagSafe battery bank, a pen and maybe snack and in the back zippered pocket I carry my iPhone 15 pro with a spigen mag safe wallet attached and some spare cash. Wish I could still by the nomatic spray bottle for sanitizer but it’s been sold out for while 😢

    @yukiaedogawa Před měsícem +1

    I can't quite go that minimalistic yet given that I'm currently in Southeast Asia. I need a fan, an umbrella, and a water container on top of my other daily essentials so a tiny sling just doesn't cut it. When I went to NYC last fall, that's when I cut back and settled on just my wallet, my phone, a power bank, and my InCharge X cable. At the time, a Longchamp mini sling worked well enough for my purposes.

    • @richardyampolsky636
      @richardyampolsky636 Před měsícem +2

      Was coming here to say the same thing. Surprised that neither of you travel with water. I get that NYC in winter may not call for it, but SE Asia or even Florida really requiresyou to carry water to stay hydrated. Would like to see a video for slings share you carry a refillable water bottle.

    @mercuryquecksilber8797 Před měsícem

    The fouldable waterbottle looks so handy, but I have always open questions about the hygiene. How do you manage bottle hygiene? I used just half liter plastic bottles and refill them, but had to change them frequently because mould appears very fastly. Also my Soda Stream has this problem, so I use much chlorine with those bottles.
    A video about travelers bottles hygiene would be very interesting, especially for the thin fouldable ones.

    EDC mindest has pop up a few times in my head, in which having a sling might resolve that issue. Currently searching slings from 4L to 10L to see what works.

    @sarah.bea. Před měsícem

    I never liked the look and feel of slings on me because I have a big chest. They just sit weird. But I have grown to love the simple Uniqlo “moon bag”. I think it’s more of a crossbody bag but carrying it feels less restrictive for me than a proper sling. I only used it for 7 months so far and it probably won’t last years and years but I totally get why they are so popular.
