If you are a fan of moody, dark, mysterious looking gear..then Black Ember is the brand for you!
The Sacoche sling has got that look, with a slim profile that is meant to just carry the essentials especially your slim/thinner items. It's meant to be a small EDC or travel pouch/sling/bag. From it's versatility of removing the strap to it's magnetic front pocket, this little sling has got you covered...and did I mention it is just stunning!

Suggestion, can you start doing an "iPad test" when reviewing crossbody bags/slings please? I don't know if it's just me, but I'm always curious if an iPad would fit in these (mainly the 11 pro).
Yeah, that's a great idea, giving us info on whether any and if so what iPad models fit would be very helpful.
I agree! Ipad mini size as well
Yes…. I love this idea..,everytime i look at a bag, i wonder whether it would fit a mini or a pro 11
If I remember correctly he mentioned in a video that he uuuh 3D printed Molds of the sizes when reviewing backpacks check out his latest I vaguely Remeber him using a red one
@@wickedheathen7347 You are right in that he has a 3D printed plated in the size and shape of a 16 inch Macbook Pro, but for smaller bags like this one, there is currently no equivalent for iPads, only the Kindle, which is limiting because it's smaller than even the iPad Mini.
Sacoche bags are for ultra minimalists setups. Solid pouch that converts into a shoulder bag. Gets the job done while traveling.
Well said
I've got the orange version of this bag. I carry it on the daily and have a few thoughts of my own. 1. I carry it in the reverse orientation, so the zipper is on the front and the magnet pocket is on the back. That keeps the magnet pocket less exposed and bagels it easier to open the zipper compartment. 2. The g-hook can get snagged in my long somewhat curly hair when I take it off over my head, so I'm careful to lift it a bit higher than other straps. 3. I'm highly considering adding some D or O rings inside as attachment points for carabineers or paracord leashes.
I usually carry my minimalist wallet, a pen, and a small battery bank inside the back divider plus mints & gum, meds, small tools, knife, small flashlight, earbuds, and hair ties in the front divider plus my phone in the magnet pocket. That packs it out pretty well and fits everything I need when I'm out and about.
Aesthetically, I think it looks very gender neutral, and I haven't gotten any weird looks or comments wearing it around Portland, OR.
thanks for your perspective!
Great video as always. Thank you. Just found out about the Kargo Loculus X-Pack Sling. Would love your thoughts on this item please. Looks very promising to my eye, but I don't see many talking about it, so I'm wondering if it is a newer player or if there are issues perhaps? Thanks for your consideration.
thank you! We'll add this bag to our (very long) wish list, hopefully we can get one in our hands!
Great review as always! Can you do the alpaca shift pack v2, please?
already shot it! should be live in a few weeks :)
Have heard about the Airback? This backpack has an vacuum system. Would be very nice to see a review from you
I'd love to do a review, hopefully they'll send me one to review
I'm a bit amused that Aaron keeps referring to the unzippered side as the front, when it is pretty clearly the backside. At least the build suggests it (placement of the strap loops) and the Black Ember site's promotional images all show it carried the zippered side outwards.
I agree, it seems the front and back were inadvertently switched
oops!
Long time watcher. I got a question for ya. What is the best backpack you could recommend for Theme Parks, that will also fit in there larger lockers. Water Resistant and can hold some back up clothing for a few tiny adults (children). This is a topic I dont see a lot of in my search. Also thanks to you and through your links I have bought the awesome TomToc Tech Ouch and the Belroy Dopp kit. Now I am looking for backpacks like I mentioned haha. Thank you for the amazing content.
thanks for supporting us for so long! I'm not sure what the best bag for this use case would be, but I immediately thought of Able Carry Daybreaker or Able Carry Daily due to their weather resistance, lightweightness, and size
@@Nomads.Nation watching your video on it as we speak
Tom Bihn also has a "sacoche" that's a little bigger than this one if folks like the style but need more room. They do the bottom gusset thing too, but theirs is just a nylon sack. I think it has a couple pockets inside? But no dividers or anything.
I'll be sure to check it out!
Hey could you review the Tomtoc T73 30 litre tech pack? Looks like a contender
I'll add it to our wish list!
Still can't find anything to replace my old heavily used Aer sling pouch. Oh well.
I believe in you 💪
Based on all the product photos on their website it seems like the front of the bag is the zippered side. The magnet pocket seems to be against your body. I would feel comfortable keeping stuff in it if that's the case.
cheers for that!
A lot of music venues in the UK won’t allow bags bigger than A4 paper so guessing this is perfect for that.
great call!
I could die without ever hearing the word saccoche ever again.
sacoche* ;)
Not many guys in North America carry purses. This might be good for your sister’s channel.
we have an international community here, not just North America 💪
