Ozark Trail Sling Pack, Taupe, Polyester, 9 L Messenger Bag, Adult, Unisex

I have other products in this brand that were decent so trusted this product when I was looking for a low cost shoulder bag that I could use as a makeshift small gym bag to quickly store accessories like gloves, bands, a jacket and weight belt that didn't take up a bunch of space like a duffel bag but bigger than a fanny/waist pack. This works perfectly! Purchased it because of the large front phone slot, multi compartments, and cinch buckles on the back. Also love that there is a strap holder loop to get things tidy. There's a place for everything but if I could change anything I'd add a place to hang keys in the inside mesh pocket and a support strap.

So far this is a nice patch to carry your drinks in so far it does seem to hold up when I go climbing up the mountain comes in handy scraped it against the pole by accident and it seems to hold up against scrapes and mountain climbing so far I would have to say it's pretty sturdy other than that not much else to offer thanks for stopping by and checking out this review

Better than anticipated. We are going to Sedona in April and I wanted something a bit larger than a standard Fanny pack. Exceeded my expectations as it can easily hold three water bottles snacks and small wallet. There are additional outside pockets which zip for my phone, etc. super light weight and honestly stylish. Love this!!!

I was worried about purchasing this item after reading some reviews about the zipper opening upside down and problems with items falling out. I really have no idea what they are complaining about. I see no issues whatsoever with any of the zippers. The main zipper they appear to be talking about is a double zipper that can be moved to open at any point you prefer. I see no way of it opening upside down, or whatever they are talking about. The only thing I can imagine is if you were to cram it full if extremely heavy items like bricks or something, maybe the zipper would bust open??? I have no idea. The bag I bought is nicely padded everywhere it contacts the body. The shoulder strap is especially comfortable. The bag stays in place well and is comfortable on long hikes. It is plenty roomy enough for its size to hold everything I need. Just for testing, it is about the perfect size for holding two 2 liter Coke bottles. (Not that you would probably use it for that.) I love mine. If you need something smaller than a backpack, but larger than a fanny pack, this is perfect! Seems to be nylon and pretty durable for long term use.

I purchased to carry my digital Nikon camera and accessories. It is larger than I was expecting, 15 inches tall. Great padded and adjustable straps. Can be worn multiple ways. Large front pocket (great for my phone). 3 compartments inside, 1 has a zipper with a mesh material, the other is an elastic pocket and, then, the large inner pocket. Available in different colors. The zippers, time will tell but, they are not made of metal. I believe it is water resistant but have not been in the rain, yet.

What a fantastic and functional sporty crossbody. First used on our Labor Day weekend getaway. Dog parks, shopping, kayaking. Perfect bag. And I love the muted blue color AND cell phone front pocket. Fits iPhone 16 pro max with case, with ease. Great price!!!

This messenger bag holds so much more than expected. There are several different compartments. In the largest compartment, we put three water bottles and it easily could have handled at least three more. The padding on the shoulder makes it comfortable. I also like the buckle on the strap that makes it easy to take off. It's perfect for our hikes where we don't need to carry much gear, but still need some necessities like hydration, snacks, and bug repellant.

I've been using this Ozark Trail 9L sling bag for hiking, camping, and fishing, and it's become one of my favorite pieces of gear. It's the perfect size for carrying the essentials without being bulky or getting in the way on the trail. I can easily fit things like snacks, a small tackle box, my wallet, phone, keys, and other odds and ends while still having room left over. The bag is comfortable to wear for long periods, and the compartments help keep everything organized so I'm not digging around looking for what I need. It seems durable so far and has held up well to regular outdoor use. My only complaint is that I wish it had an external water bottle pocket. When I'm hiking, it's a little inconvenient having to keep a drink inside the bag. I'd also like to see a few more loops or attachment points on the outside for clipping gear, a carabiner, or other items. Overall, it's a great bag for the price and works really well for day hikes, camping trips, and fishing outings. I'd definitely buy it again.

I guess I thought I could wear this on either side but the way it's designed, it's designed to be worn on one side/direction only, which is awkward and uncomfortable for me, so Im returning it. Otherwise it's very roomy and would accommodate quite bit. Unfortunately there is no outside pocket on the backside that would be against the body, for like a wallet or something, just the outward facing pocket.

Bag is awkward to put on and uncomfortable to wear. Metal buckles rub against skin. Size and design of bag itself - excluding the strap - is very good. But the strap design greatly diminishes its usefulness.
