I was hesitant to purchase this tomtoc because it didn’t came in xpac and now it does! Thank you for the review.

I wished TomToc would use this same strap clip design on their smaller compact EDC sling. That bag is pretty much works best if you're right handed. If the Compact EDC bag had the same swivel clips as the Wander, it would be way more versatile.

I bought the original (blue lining) version of this for my tech and liked it so much that I bought the black x-pac version for everyday use. However, it just felt too flimsy, smooth and crinkly - like a cheap oversized wash bag - plus it had an odd chemical smell that the original didn't. I sent it back and now have two copies of the blue lining version and couldn't be happier. :)

I got this down 10% off with coupon on amazon when i bought it. It is dangerously close to the more recommended slings out there,BUT those with same materials are also 120++ range,so there's solid $30-40 or more difference in price. Also many of those slings have the straps on hip pack position which is one of my main reason i picked this. This has very comfortable and versatile carrying position on your back or chest.

Loculus also comes in so many colors too! I love the peacock color I got in X-Pac!

Because of the lack of inside elastics when you swing it from front to back everything moves inside à big no no 😢

This is exactly why I hated the vanquest dendrite.

I have the balistic nylon (black) version of this bag. I like it , however it has ONE MAJOR FLAW for someone who is left handed and prefers to have the bag in left shoulder carry and that is the bag doesn't vertical on the back, it sits more horizontal which makes it feel kind if awkward especially if its loaded up with a bunch of stuff and weighed down. I tried flipping the strap but I dont really think that resolved the issue, I think the issue has to do with the fabric wings next to the swivel locks, they are both oriented in one direction , if tomtoc just had one of those buckle flap things pointed in opposite directions that would fix this issue.

Appreciate you sharing this perspective. I think others will find it helpful.

They make a 4L EDC X-Pac that is $60 in black that I would rather have. But I will stick with my Alpaka Go Sling Mini V2

That's one I don't have yet! It's on my wishlist for sure

For me the EDC 5.5 liter was too big. It's a weird in between size. I ended up with the compact 4l for everyday casual strolling and the T24 when I go to work or trips where I need more stuff with me. I went for the non XPAC on 4l however because of color options. Wanted something more fun than brown or black :D The rotation cuff/strap thing looks nice though.

It’s DEFINITELY a weird in-between size, and that’s why I love it. I use my smaller tomtoc sling for travel edc, and this sling has replaced my backpack for work carry. I can fit in all the tech I couldn’t in the smaller sling, without the bulk of the backpack. At the ~$75 price point it’s usually on sale it’s great, full MSRP I would pass. Now I’m just wishing I hadn’t wasted so much money on Alpaka slings trying to fill the void. They look great (alpaka) but they always hold so much less than you think they should, especially if you’re carrying the larger smartphones in them.

thoughts on between tomtacT26, kargo loculus and greenroom metrorunner ?

Hi - I am so sorry but I don't have a Kindle fire to test for for you. I show the size as 6.5" tall when inserted into a bag on its side. The tomtoc is 6.69". So I think it would slip into the main compartment but not into the tech sleeve which is sized for an iPad mini sized device.

Man I didn't realize the xpac versions were just on the same listing as different colors. Here I was thinking your community post was a sneak peek at an unreleased bag! lol Do you have any advice for allevating the buckle squeak? Maybe some kind of lubricant? I love the convenience and comfort of the swivel buckle, but I don't love the nylon-on-nylon squeaking when the bag is loaded out more heavily. I'd love to see your take on the Tomtoc carry-on 30L duffel. But I totally get it if duffels aren't normally your thing.

Nope. The squeak is a fact of life I think. I haven’t tried lubricant of any kind but I don’t know that it would work long term on plastic.

I did read a post about squeaky controllers that said pencil lead would do it…coloring surface with a pencil and letting the graphite do the lubrication.

Nothing. Plenty of us were waiting for a possible xpac version of this bag when the smaller sling got an xpac version. It’s a great sling, and it fills that niche between my smaller tomtoc sling, and a full out backpack.

I'm a big fan of Ayataka, a Japanese bottled green tea brand from Coca-Cola. But it's really tricky to find a consistent source in the US. Suntory brands are everywhere, but other brands don't get imported by grocery stores nearly as much. It's specifically formulated to hit the notes of fresh-brewed matcha while bottled at cold temperatures. Which is subtly different from just normal tea but cooled down and with preservatives added, which describes most other brands. Highly recommend trying it if you ever happen upon it. There's like a dozen different varieties and they're all good.
