Arc'teryx Slingblade 4 Shoulder Bag

Not to big... not to small. I'm using this bag to carry imp important documents when traveling. Easily carries my notebook, book, and small accessories. Material is very durable and has held up to the harshness of the desert environment. Strap adjustments could be better... retaining loops, but it's not a deal breaker. Overall, it was exactly what I needed for easy access to my primary items during travel.

This is almost the perfect small bag for around the city, travel, etc, to hold an ipad, small notepad, reading glasses, charger, pen, business cards, etc. ALMOST perfect. But the shoulder strap length adjustment is located on either side of the shoulder pad. So the excess strap material is dangling from the middle of the strap on each side of the shoulder pad. The end of the excess strap material has a "keeper" of sorts that in photographs shows the excess strap material flush against the strap on either side of the shoulder pad. But in actual use, the excess strap material "rides up" the strap causing big loops. It doesn't make sense to me that anyone would design a strap this way. They must not have actually used this bag in a subway, a crowded elevator, jumping in and out of ubers/taxis etc. What I may do is select a strap length and try to sew down the excess strap material and convert this into a non-length adjustable shoulder strap to keep this excess material out of the way. This is so annoying I was originally going to rate a 2 rather than 3 stars, but the bag is otherwise so great I left it at 3. By the way the grey color is nicer in reality than in the pictures.

Just the right size for daily use. When I grab the bag on my way out the door, I know I’ve got everything I need including a space for my water bottle, iPhone , some homemade oatmeal cookies, knife, Kleenex, wallet, iPad if so desired, etc. And the bag is Arcteryx handsome. Slings well around the neck.

Returned it the same day it was delivered. I see that it works for a lot of people, but I personally found it impractical. Too small, and not enough compartment to get things organized. It does fit a 10.8" tablet, though.

Super high quality extremely durable. Functional , put together well

The bag was as expected. VERY light duty bag, so don’t expect a lot of room. Decent organization places for keys, phone, pens, etc. if the “strap adjusters” held better, I’ll give it 5

I have to admit that I am an Arc’teryx fan - that being said I love my bag! Bought it to use while traveling and it is perfect (I warned you I was a fan). There are enough pockets for the little things and a great place for passports. And it is small enough that you can put it into your backpack if you want. I would recommend this bag if you are looking for a convenient bag to travel with.

A small bag in picture. But when it arrived, it also looks small. But when I start filling it up, it swallowed my 2019 Ipad Pro with keyboard, battery, specs and all. What a find. If you are thinking, dont. Just buy it. The quality is well worth the price.

There’s lots to like about this bag.It has many pockets / sections so things can be stowed separately. The main section of the bag can easily hold a tablet or perhaps a smallish notebook. But it may not provide the protection for such items.It can be held in the hand using the handle at the top of the bag and the shoulder strap can be tucked in to an external strap on rear of the bag. Or you can use the shoulder strap to wear it across the body or on the shoulder.Ah yes the shoulder strap. The padded part of the strap is not very wide and doesn’t stay on the shoulder as it does not have any grip.Also there is no external water bottle carrier.Four stars are awarded due to these two points.The full price of this bag is around fifty pounds and in my opinion not worth it at that price point. I got it for a lot less by keeping an diligent eye on the price.Happy shopping.

Fantastic bag. Great quality. Spacious yet low profile in design. Smart and practical. Great bag.

肩にかけるだけでなく、腰バンドも付いていて、自転車に乗ってもズレない。普段使いの、いろいろなものが収納できる小いさ過ぎず、大きすぎず丁度良いサイズ感が良い。

大きさもポケットや内部の仕切りも使いやすい。期待通りでした。
