    Good, but could be better

    The build quality, as usual, is amazing. The size of the sling is OK (not quite perfect) for the little personal affects that I take onto a plane and want to have close by (ie. ear buds, eye mask, battery bank, etc, etc). It is also a great size for using as a sling for day trips.

    I have some of the TB see-through organizer pouches to help organize some of the wires, passport etc.

    The one thing I WISH it had was a zippered pocket on the back of the bag. I think this would be an AMAZING place to put Passports, cash, and other flat items so that the main compartment can be dedicated to other "bulkier" items.

    I'm not sure how to get the idea to at TB (Nik maybe???), but I would love to see that pocket added to future iterations of this product. I would re-buy if that pocket were added.

    Almost perfect!

    Almost perfect. I just wish the waist strap was a few inches longer so I can use the Bummer as a cross body bag.

    So far great bag

    First off I’m on vacation and using it. We’re on a 30-day cross country. My positive experience began before I even received my/our bag/bags. I left a note hoping to get these in time. I had a personal note from Cody in my pkg saying to enjoy the bags and vacation. Please give him our thanks. We are 4 days into use and they’re working great. My husband commented not 1 hour ago how much he liked it and how much it held. Just so people know this, is what I’m carrying and still have room. Pen, pencil, key fob, iPhone 11 Pro in front compartment. Small wallet, sunglass case, hand wipes, bandaids, mask, lipstick, Advil, travel toothbrush, misc. cards, and Kleenex. I feel it’s important to list all this because as a woman…well you know we carry lots. Also very comfortable to wear with the large webbing.

    I’m a Fanny Pack Dad Now

    Why’d it take me so long to just wear one.? This bag is perfect. With most venues now not allowing bags above this size, it is perfect for my Kobo reader, keys, phone, and whatever else I don’t need sagging down my pants. The orangish mustard color is beautiful. I get compliments all the time now. I’m not here to impress my kids or their tasteless friends!

    premium fanny pack

    i dont know if it's worth $75, but it's an excellent fanny pack. i love the plastic snap lock, feels very strong. the stretchy bands to tuck the excess strap is great too, as i am super thin and have to tighten the straps quite a bit.
