There’s no loops or dedicate pen slots or glasses areas. The thing about this bag is that the organization is both robust, but not in the way.

Lastly, against the back of the bag is a somewhat discrete slip pocket, which is the only external pocket to not have aquagaurd zippers, and while thin, it is still nearly the full size of the footprint of the bag. This entire area is also lightly padded all the way around. Moving one pocket back, you have a very narrow pocket which is separated by a piece of material, which itself contains a zippered pocket and two open top pockets. Here you can fit a small plastic water bottle, the kind most people buy in huge quantities here in the USA. The bag is then divided into three sections: front pocket has two interior pockets and is the largest by volume. But it is how I wear mine, and thus it is great. The downside is, if that is not how you wear your sling, then it’s not going to be great for you. This allows the bag to sit better on your back when worn as a sling, and is far more comfortable. One strap comes out the side, that’s the top when worn on your back, and the other out the top of the sling itself. It is set up such that it is made to be worn only over your left shoulder. Ok, the first thing that sets this bag apart is the strap positioning. But the length means that the overall capacity is spread out, keeping the bag profile slim. At 13” long this would not work as a waist pack for most people and thus must be carried at an angle (which you have to do, more on that later). One last note about the size, is the length of this bag is quite long. This is because of organization within this sling, which makes it small/compact, while carrying more than the specs would otherwise indicate. At 4.5L this bag is decently compact, but in many ways it can carry things a lot easier than other larger slings. My notes for this sling on size was “small, but ample” and that makes very little sense to those who have not handled it before. And the strap itself is a true seatbelt style nylon strap, nice, soft, and slick. The zippers on the bag are YKK Aquagaurd zippers, and they really keep a nice look for the bag. Aer should make this a standard offering - I am not sure I would be as happy with this in another material. It’s made of VX-42 X-Pac and it is fantastic. Which brings us to the one I was sent to test, the X-Pac model which is a limited edition and already sold out. This is a very common material and my experience with it is that it is far more durable than you might think, and looks great. Black Multicam (limited edition): this is 1000D Cordura.

The big thing to know here is that it is low abrasion (smooth feeling) and durable.

Black: this is a 1680D Nylon, which is often referred to as ‘ballistic’.

This bag actually comes in four different colors and four different materials: And I also mostly used this running the odd errand, or long walks with the family.) Material I alternated between 6 different slings throughout my testing to get a sense of how different Slings measure up. (One note about Sling testing, given the world right now, I did a different kind of testing here. In a lot of ways the size and rather not traditional shape of this sling make it something which both stands out as unique, but fades away when you are carrying it. The pictures of this sling on Aer’s site and here in this article simply don’t do it justice. My first impressions of this bag, upon receiving it, were simply: oh man I really like this. The next sling I have to talk about is the Aer Day Sling 2, in the limited edition X-Pac (also available in black nylon, gray, and black multicam).

Note: this bag was provided for review by Aer at no cost.
