This really helped my decision for my first ever sling bag purchase. thank you!

I think the water bottle pocket is for a bottle of cola, water 500ml or a can of red bull 250ml or cola 330ml

Good review, the first i have seen from you :) clear and concise thanks

This is an awesome sling. Has all the right features. I do like when slings can go over either shoulder personally but it wouldn’t be a deal breaker.

The patagonia atomic 8L sling is the ultimate win win, the north face is still a decent bag but I wish it was BIGGER to hold an iPad or a small surface pro 7 and the “water bottle pocket” was expandable like the sport sling from Beís (shay Mitchell) AND if you could switch the straps on either side then I would buy this bag…

Would have been nice to have more internal pockets like Bellroy slings. Nevertheless, this is still half the price of Bellroy, its a compromise I guess.

does it move around the shoulder at all? i want to use it to bike and that's my main concern

Do you think I could fit a pair of cycle shoes in this bag?

How does it work as a crossbody bag?

Is this quite similar with the Isabella sling bag?

I purchased for my trip next week and though I haven’t used it for my trip yet wearing it around town has been great very comfortable I’m 5’5 155lbs and I have a lot of extra strap not being used I know the strap length has been mentioned a lot regarding this bag. I can fit my kindle full size wallet keys headphones and diaper and wipes for my kids and not heavy or uncomfortable. Will update after trip

I need some help! I’m looking for a sling like this size it’s perfect. But im kinda being picky and want something that can fit a hydro flask on the outside. Even a 20oz one is better than a plain ice mountain bottle. Any suggestions? Not picky on brand. Was looking at the borealis mini too but that also doesn’t have a larger water bottle holder. Would be open to small backpacks too that can fit a larger water bottle. Please help me out please!

Do you think it will fit an iPad Air 11”?

I’ve been using a Cookies smell proof rat pack for almost 3 years now. It was my first cross body bag and now that I’ve owned a technical backpack for a few months (the north face borealis) I want to get the sling version. But… there is one issue I can’t seem to choose between the Patagonia 8l atom sling or the borealis sling. They are pretty such exactly the same except the borealis has the bungees and a small water bottle compartment. The Patagonia one is bigger since it’s 8l instead of 6l, also I think it’s more stylish. Hmmm 🤔 decisions

I just came here from watching an Atom Sling video and apparently it's uncomfortable because of how much it slides.

@MirfromMBLAQ

@@herb_rolls I ended up buying the Patagonia atom sling and although I do use it you are right about it sliding a lot. The small pouch can’t ever stay put where you want it across your chest it always slides up to my neck so for long hours using the bag it gets annoying. Honestly I should have went with the north face borealis sling. Maybe next time I buy a bag I’ll get it right haha

Can the bungee net be removed?

Does an iPad 9 fit ? Thx

The one thing that sucks about these bags is that it’s always catered to right-handed people. Being left-handed there are limited options. Such a cool back & review.

I agree! I'm right handed and even I miss the possibility of switching it. It's such an unfortunate mistake because they could fix this SO easily. I hope someone over at TNF takes notes and pushes this tweak.

does that water bottle holster hold a disposable water bottle (like aquafina or something like that - or a soda or gatorade bottle)?

@TimothySOgreat

It holds one just fine. I usually use my nalgene, which I have to stick in the main compartment. But it will hold a bottle just fine. I also find that if you roll up your rain jacket or keep an umbrella with you if it's in that pocket just fine.

People actually want a water bottle holder and want to put their laptop in a sling. 😅 I am not sure that would be comfortable.
