Hey guys, just a heads up that we are changing our review style around a bit by shooting the majority of our reviews indoors. It cuts down shoot time from 4 days to 1 day, and we think the results are pretty awesome so far. Let us know what you think about the new format and if you have any thoughts about the Aer Day Sling 2!
Nomads Nation! Im a fan of the urban stealth look. But as soon as i start walking around the zippers are soo loud and it takes away from the joy of wearing. I don't wanna be heard walking around. Either need to discover a similar quieter alternative or replace the zippers with paracord or something. It's gotta match the sleek look without looking cheap but also strong enough to actually open up these over engineered zippers I cant see myself using this loud af bag long term
@@sunigbiskit2904 very interesting! I've never really thought about it or noticed but maybe it's one of those things that when you DO notice you just can't stop thinking about it
new subscriber here! not only are your videos full of great info but they are top quality! you've made my decision on what sling to buy so easy! really appreciate it! keep up the great work!
Thanks so much Brandon and Im glad you find our content useful! Be sure to subscribe, we've got some huge announcements coming in the next few months 😎
I'm on the hunt for Men Tote which is more vertical for the look, 15 inch laptop (if possible), and for mirrorless camera (doesn't need to be camera focus bag). Please make some recommendation videos for that.
Came here from the Aer City Sling review (which was great by the way!) as I have this one and I love it. Also love to see HK! Family are from Yuen Long and hope to be back next year. Keep up the good work... Subscribed =) ps random fact... this bag was part of the end of season goodie pack for ‘Warrior’ the tv series along with butterfly knives 😳😁
Yo thank you for the support! HK is awesome! Come to think of it it makes perfect sense why they used this bag for the goodie pack - Its styling fits the theme so well.
Entertaining review! If I may suggest, have some common gadgets (iPhones, iPads) in hand to see if they’ll fit the smaller bags. I came across your channel looking if an iPad mini will fit the Aer City Sling (still checking) but subscribed for the entertainment. You deserve way more subscribers and good luck!
Hey Matthew - thanks for the kind words and great recommendations! I don't own an iPad but I've always wanted one and I think you've given me a good excuse to finally buy one 😎
@@Nomads.Nation keep these videos coming! HK is the perfect city to showcase the versatility of these bags. Will recommend my friends to subscribe to your channel too :)
Just got one: not bad. BTW, "rarely uncomfortable", is NOT a double negative, as "rarely/mostly" state how often you find the condition "comforable/uncomfortable"... so, well done
I noticed most reviewers wear cross body gear straps on their right shoulder, and I wear mine on the left: does that mean you're right-handed vs left-handed?? Just a thought, but I forgot which sling I saw that had magnet fasteners on both ends.... hmmmmm
Best funny and honest review out there! Thank you! Maybe do a review about the Code of Bell X-Pod?! 🙏🏼 Or a comparison between the Aer City/Day Sling and the COB X-Pod! 🙏🏼✌🏼
I have the Tech Sling (for my pc) , but now mulling between the Day Sling 2 against the City Sling. Great review. But where is the link for photo slings?
As a Hongkonger and techy/edc lover, I am surprise to know you're in HK?! Did you shoot these footage while traveling or you are base in HK? anyway, fantastic production, keep it up!
Love your reviews! I have the City Sling and have been using it for a year now and love it! I kind of also like the Day Sling 2 as well (seems a little different in terms of carrying style?)! Would you recommend this if you already have the City Sling, or do you think it is too similar/unnecessary? Keep it up with the great reviews and YAY HK!!
Thanks Teresa! If you don't mind spending the extra money on a product that is very similar, then yes I think they can serve different purposes. But if that's the case maybe try a different sling - check out my new Aer Tech Sling 2 review - it's dope 😎🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰
Thank you for letting us know about this issue, genuinely wouldn't have thought of this on our own... Now we are are looking at security in all our reviews, gotta let people know. Also sorry about your loss 💔
Holy crab, three months, stuck in a country without a passport! Must be a hell of a story! thanks for letting us know about this though. We never though about security until you pointed this out.
Très jolie vidéo ! Belle prod, belle énergie. Et bonne analyse du produit de mon point de vue . Tu me rappelle Chase Reeves ! // superb video/ prod. Good vibes / energy . And very interesting product review, which is the more important :-))) . You remind me Chase Reeves. I subscribe !
Merci beaucoup Frederic! Glad that you found the video useful, and so happy to hear that you subscribed! More good vibes and great content coming your way :)
Thanks dude! We've got some huge things coming on this channel in the next 6 months, thanks for coming along our journey. And yes, right side only for the sling :)
Great review, I’m a new subscriber because I enjoy your presentation style. I have the x-pac version with an orange interior which makes it easier to find small items. Not sure what the interior material is but it might bump up your score.
I usually travel with a GoPro, wallet, passport and both of my cellphones... Should it be ok for traveling minimalist with just a backpack and this sling?
@@Nomads.Nation partly due to your reviews I ordered the special edition AER City Sling currently on their website. It has the orange interior and has the X-Pac material. You would probably like it. Its awesome! I had it in my hands less than 24 hours after ordering and it came all the way to BC Canada. Wow!
@@tomchiu4170 Well seeing this whole pandemic situation I just want something small and easy to carry items like hand sanitizer, extra packets of tissues and also stuff like a small umbrella etc. So I was thinking of the Radiant R0
Would you recommend this bag for someone who wants to carry a compact umbrella, and portable first aid kit n addition to a few other things similar to what you had in your video?
Nomads Nation thanks! is it much bigger than the city sling or not?? because im looking for small sling, at first i am leaning toward the city sling , but if the day sling not much bigger i think i will choose it so i can use the extra space . thx again!
Interesting. On this two year old video, you kept an E-cig in the quick access compartment. These days, you keep nicotine gum in similar compartments. This is what I call progress.
solid review. won't buy it after seeing the organizing flaps. shame because I love the minimalist exterior. Do you recommend something similar to this with better interior quality and organizing?
@@Nomads.Nation so do you have good solution to avoid somebody unloack the buckle from our back, as your youtube video. anyway when i watched your video i just realized oooo ya this is can happen, woww.please advice dude

Mine arrived yesterday thanks to your review. Couldnt be happier with it. My first sling ever
Oh you're in for a treat! Sling life is so convenient!
Literally just got the day sling yesterday and am preferring it over the city sling when packed. Havent put it to use yet
I still prefer the city sling but only barely - tbh they are both amazing, just depends on how much stuff you gotta carry

i am right handed but I can wear the sling on either shoulder tbh
Great review, out of this one and the AER City Sling, which do you prefer?
Best funny and honest review out there!
Thank you!
Maybe do a review about the Code of Bell X-Pod?! 🙏🏼
Or a comparison between the Aer City/Day Sling and the COB X-Pod! 🙏🏼✌🏼
Thanks for the love and the ideas Daniel! I haven't tried any code of bell products yet but they look quality af 😎
I have the Tech Sling (for my pc) , but now mulling between the Day Sling 2 against the City Sling. Great review. But where is the link for photo slings?
Just added the links for the photo sling. Thanks for the kind words!
These videos are so damn well made!!!! I can’t believe you have no where near the subscribers you deserve!!
Thank you so much for the encouragement! Hopefully some day!
As a Hongkonger and techy/edc lover, I am surprise to know you're in HK?! Did you shoot these footage while traveling or you are base in HK?

Hey man, thanks so much for the love! We are based fulltime in HK and love showing off how beautiful the city is. 🇭🇰🇭🇰
Great videos 👌 Keep it up 👍
Thanks so much!
May I ask if the bag can fit an A5 notebook?
Just love your reviews and editing! Quick question - would an average sized paperback fit in this?
Been using this for over a year at this point and I don't put it in my backpack, because it takes up around half of the space because of the strap.
Great review, very looking forward to see your review on Timbuk2 classic messenger please
On it!
You recognize me that the sling should wear from left to right.
Then the stripe can be easy to adjust to fit my body.
Big thanks=]]]]
Thanks Peter!
The weight of a small bear 😂 how awesome is this channel
Thanks for the love Eric!!! 😂

Thanks so much King. And yup! HK is home - are you nearby?
@@Nomads.Nation Yup! Just 10mins away from MK
No shit! Hit me up on ig (Aaron_Radcliffe) maybe we can grab a beer sometime :)

Oh didn’t realize you’re in HK!
Oh yes I am! Love this place.
Would you recommend this bag for someone who wants to carry a compact umbrella, and portable first aid kit n addition to a few other things similar to what you had in your video?
I think so? Problem is I have no idea how big the umbrella and first aid kit is, but the sling can pack a punch for sure
@@Nomads.Nation Awesome and great review by the way
@@rashaunmcclurkin3634 Thanks dude! Let us know what you think of the sling if you end up getting it 💪🏼
Can I fit a klean kanteen water bottle ?
Hey Jonhattan, not sure tbh, I've never used Klean Kanteen :(
Hello, does it have ample anti-theft features against pickpockets?
You can tie the zippers together - it’s a bit of a theft deterrent
great, thorough, and enjoyable review ! i wonder is th day sling too big for 5’11 men.
Thanks dude! I think it's fine no matter your height. I'm 5'8 and I think it's a great fit for me :)
Nomads Nation thanks! is it much bigger than the city sling or not?? because im looking for small sling, at first i am leaning toward the city sling , but if the day sling not much bigger i think i will choose it so i can use the extra space . thx again!
Karsono karsono def go with the day sling :)
So can this be worn over the right shoulder so it swings around the left side?
Absolutely :)
Interesting. On this two year old video, you kept an E-cig in the quick access compartment. These days, you keep nicotine gum in similar compartments. This is what I call progress.
Trying dude!The gum has been great though, really helpful for easing off the less-healthy nicotine alternatives
Thank you
Glad you found the video useful Christopher!
Do you think this would work for concealed carry?
Never owned a gun so I’m not really a sure…
nice video, did u can carry you 16 / 25 oz tumbler with this sling bag?
tumbler?
@@Nomads.Nation sorry i mean water bottle
Is there a bag you recommend for a Nintendo switch ole plz
I don't switch
Looking at this is this better than city sling 2
Depends - if you want more space then yes :)
solid review. won't buy it after seeing the organizing flaps. shame because I love the minimalist exterior. Do you recommend something similar to this with better interior quality and organizing?
maybe check out the Modern Dayfarere Active Sling? We published a review on it a few months back
Nice review. New sub
Awesome thank you! very much appreciated!
how to change the buckle shift to center with the bag still on behind/our back
No way that I'm aware of
@@Nomads.Nation so do you have good solution to avoid somebody unloack the buckle from our back, as your youtube video. anyway when i watched your video i just realized oooo ya this is can happen, woww.please advice dude
@@Kendysukardi I don't have a good solution dude, sorry!
@@Nomads.Nation thanks dude, wish u all the best and your channel. anyway i wanna asking u for aer sling day 2 vs aer city sling, which are u prefer?
@@Kendysukardi tough choice but I'd pick the city sling!
What if you live on a farm in Chicago?
I think you'd be the most badass farmer in all of Illinois with this sling
What’s the difference between a are city sling and aer day sling
Great question! Day Sling is bigger and has more pockets / organisation
Also can you get them in uk or just USA as there are shipping and tax fees
@@Nomads.Nation is the air city 2 sling better also can u get it in uk
@@ajackson-ross7295 They are equally as amazing - just the Day Sling is bigger / City Sling is smaller. Yes, Aer sells and ships to the UK
Out of the city sling and the xpac which looks better also like the minaal cross body are there any gd
Can this fit a water bottle in the main compartment?
Depends on what size water bottle - but my 16oz hydro flask fit no problemo 🤙🏼
Thanks. Considering Bellroy Sling or Chrome Mini Kadet. Of course they are bigger.
Love me some bellroy, haven’t tried chrome yet but they look dope. Keep us posted with what you decide to get and what you think of it!
can it fit ipad mini?
Not sure. I’d recommend reaching out to Aer - they’ll get you sorted 💪🏾
Can it hold a glock 19 though?
not sure, never owned a gun, let me know if you find out!
Yes, i like the exterior but i really hate the interior.
Really, why?
Xpac interior materials maybe better
Xpac always better!
Big logos make you look poor/cheap (fake rich), so thats why it's small
(mainly applies to more premium brands)
100% agree!
Which do you use/prefer more on average, the city or day? :)
Ahhh if I had to pick... City :)
Why do you prefer the City Sling if I may ask?
This is overpriced to be honest, i found a very similar bag from tomtoc with almost identical material choice and design for under 30 usd.
I'll be sure to check it out - thanks for the heads up!
@@Nomads.Nation loved your style of review , fun informative and natural 👍
@@supernova1976 Thank you so much! More videos coming, please be sure to subscribe if you haven't already :)
but the tomtoc not fully ballistic cordura...the strap also diffrent
To bad you have to try and emphasize your points with words that have to be bleeped. If you were reviewing my product we would have a discussion.
Why?
The front zipper is at the worst place possible
Why you think?
@@Nomads.Nation a good thief will pick up on it quick. I think it would be better close to the other zipper
