the strap really is amazing i’m a mailman and bought it for my mailbag , worth the money
That’s awesome!
Good job with this man. No questions once you watch the whole thing 👍
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I have the larger version and it's a great minimal, overnight bag. I can even fit my 12.9" iPad Pro in it too. I just got back from a trip to Sweden and used it to stuff with packing cubes and then into my carry on. The blockiness of it is great for that. Let me know if you want to use it for review, as I'm located very close.
Nice I’m testing that next week
Another very cool review and superb looking sling...what a looker this one is and I see they have a version with orange interior (my fave). I think I'd go for a few "Mr. Grippers", by the way. I have a horween watch strap that is like butter. I like that very classy dark brown touch when a bag is all black to give it pizzaz, too. I'm starting my savings plan to grab a Defy next. Tomorrow, my white Loculus from Kargo arrives so I should be fine waiting (a little anyway) on the Defy. I went to their site and the 10L version is calling to me even more! Side note (and I really hope you accept this comment in the way I mean it): I enjoy you now showing how packs look on you and I especially like your John Travolta-like version of Staying Alive. I do wish you played that Bee Gees song in the background instead of that porn sounding music though. :)
LOL the music was terrible for sure. My white loculus came today and I LOVE it.
Joint for my money you are the expert on bags especially green room 136. I'm in love with the genesis bag and I want to wildcard it with the lid pockets video is everything only its no longer in the wild card do you think they will be putting it back in the wild card eventually.
I’ll see if I can find out
Great review and cant wait for that dyneema review incoming (could it be a full size insidious?). How do you compare the insidious jr vs the Greenroom metro monger?
I think the Metromonger is superior - but also it is bigger and bigger feeling - the insidious Jr is less to fuss with and carry about
@@ThePerfectBagthank you for the response. Any chance you can swap the defy strap onto the metromonger?
Hey Clint! Okay, that's a cool bag! But for me, it's a total no go. I'm no fan of that strap. I'm a big dude with a shorter neck and those super thick padded straps are not comfortable to me. It feels like it digs into my neck. Also I love to manipulate my bag from back to front. I grab what I need and sling it back to my back or side (I wear my slings a bit lower almost like a satchel). I just received my Alpeka Tech Case and it has the thinnest strap of all of my slings and I absolutely love it. I find it super comfortable. So yeah, strap aside the Defy Insidious Jr. is a cool looking bag.
I’ll be curious to see what you think of the full-size insidious that I’m reviewing next week
LA Police gear has the Zombie Killer bag, it's been around for 10 years. This bag is basically that with an unnecessarily beefed up strap. And Greenroom has a bag like it too now.
I don’t know the zombie killer, but I sure as heck I’m going to be looking it up
I have an LA backpack and the quality seems really high, like 5:11 levels for less coin.
mine fits an ipad pro 11 with a spec case (including apple pencil), is thing fit but it works i'm using the cordura one
Yeah tight but it works!
Can you do a video on the defy THE PARKER PACK 2.0
It’s on the list!!!
Clint, for rainy areas, do you think the XPAC material holds up well (e.g., can I walk around without 'baby sitting' the bag in the rain for a 30 minute walk?). What about the dynema version? Does one fair better than the other?
Great question! Yes - I actually really like XPAC in Rainy conditions. I find it to be really water resistant when combined with aquaguard zippers. I think Dyneema is coated with waterproof when new - but I’d say that may wear off over a long period of time? I’ve only owned a few dyneema bags - I have a LOT of experience with XPAC bags and rain.
Don’t sleep on this one (if you like camo) - last one - water resistant cordura outer with xpac interior…neat colorway. defybags.com/products/insidious-jr-sling-rogue-camo-multicam-black-cordura-fire
Yeah I've been eyeing this one, the fire edition, the XPAC, and the dyneema. I really want something that I can take out in the rain and not worry about my expensive electronics getting wet.
Thanks for the response, Clint. The XPAC one is out sale right now (as is the camo CORDURA one you pointed out). Do you think the waterproof-ness of the XPAC and CORDURA is comparable?@@ThePerfectBag
I would guess it would be similar given the quality of Defy bags…but maybe message them directly or call them in Chicago and ask them directly for advice on best waterproof version of the bag. That’s what I’d do and they seem to really care about customers getting exactly the right bag.
No behind the scenes footage, but still a great review. 😁 👍
Lol
Really nice looking sling, the strap looks so engineered but that handle can do a lot better, the handle just looks so cheap, not fit for this gorgeous bag
Thanks for watching! Love hearing your thoughts!
Just get a trakke bairn. Youre welcome
$200 sling? There's no way in heck im dropping that much. You can buy a full-size backpack with that amount.
You can’t buy a full sized backpack without costing 400 dollars and made with that quality
