While it is going to be way too small and way too basic for some, the Bellroy Sling is still one of our favorite slings we've ever reviewed.
Made from high-quality materials, this sling feels great to interact with. It's also large enough for your casual daily gear, but small and compact enough to look and feel great to wear.

The Bellroy Sling is perfect for you if…
✅ You want a sling that looks great. Not all slings are created equal, and this is one of the sexiest ones out there
✅ You want a sling for casual everyday carry. There aren't many pockets - this sling is super minimal and basic.
✅ You want a sling made from premium materials (hence the $99 price tag).

Could you cover the mini 4L sling? Would love your opinion on that

[@adamcedillo7321]

Loved the in depth review. Just subscribed 👍

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks a ton Adam!

[@cloudlandsst6032]

I bought this Ink Blue Sling and I absolutely Love It! The design is simple & classy. The material is water resistant. I put my wallet, water bottle, iPhone, AirPods pro, powerbank, key, hand sanitiser & tissue in this sling, it still got plenty of room for extra. Well done Bellroy!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Totally agreed! It's easily one of my favorite slings (and I love that magnetic buckle!)

[@cloudlandsst6032]

Nomads Nation right! That’s the key design too. Btw, I luv your detailed review! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks so much!

[@louisau2011]

This video is totally underrated. I bought my Sling mini half year ago and I wish I knew this before.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks dude!

[@derekh79]

Hi Aaron, just subscribed, loved your Arcido Akra review. Have the bag and it checks all the boxes for my minimalist one-bag travels. Love your detailed videos! But I gotta admit, for this video, was a little hard hearing you while at the bar. Other than that, great review! (Do one on the Defy insidious please? :) ) your honest review will be a yay or nay buy call for me! Thank you for the awesome videos!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Hey Derek! Thanks so much for the kind words dude, and yes, we had some serious sound complications in our first batch of videos, but hopefully they will now be a thing of the past! Audio is f-ing complicated lol Also if you are looking for a sling, keep an eye out for next week's review of the Aer City Sling - it's legit :)

[@PomotersNepal]

Ur grt buddy. Loved ur reviews.. Keep rocking

[@Nomads.Nation]

ahhh thank you so much! We'll keep rocking for sure 🤘🏼

[@vatal5410]

Congrats, you've earned a new subscriber. 👍👍👍🎉🎉🎉

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks so much Vatal!

[@lindah6451]

Agree with you at minutes7.17, that the strap should come with padding, esp with such pricing (compared with Uniqlo's sling). In saying that though, I appreciate the magnetic clasp, as it help ease carpel tunnel on my main hand.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Totally agreed Linda!

[@highnoon420]

I went to buy a suitcase some time ago I asked about the sizes, there was some discrepancy or visible size difference or something... anyway. Some measurements are interior litre size and some are water displaced size and that's why or one reason why one companies size is different, they don't have an industry standard of interior space and even if they did then would they add up all the different pockets interior/exterior pockets and combine the total because some do this too

[@Nomads.Nation]

yea, measuring a bags size by 'liters' is a flawed system at best

[@highnoon420]

@@Nomads.Nation yeah, its not like measuring horses in hands

[@highnoon420]

@@Nomads.Nation "litres"

[@arifernandez7667]

Hi! I doubt with the colors. It is a gift for my husband. It is classic. I doubt black, gray, I like blue but not being the classic dark navy ... What do you think of black? Thanks!! :) Perfect video

[@Nomads.Nation]

I LOVE the black version - very classy. And thanks for the kind words about the vid!

[@arifernandez7667]

@@Nomads.Nation They are all so pretty, but for him with the black I don't risk hehe. Thank you very much ;)

Does anyone use it for a camera bag? I’m looking to buy one but I don’t know if my A7iii will fit.

I'm trying to buy a sling that is minimalist and small. I do not want a bulky one as ill be carrying this on my chest side. Can you please recommend me 3 that I can look at? Thank you and I love your reviews!

[@michellestanding1410]

Thank you

[@Nomads.Nation]

No, thank you ♥️

[@apsm3md]

Can I use it as a waist pack?

[@Nomads.Nation]

You probably can and it should work fine, but it probably functions best as a sling

[@sareger4948]

What are the strongest contenders if you like this bag and want to check some others out?

[@Nomads.Nation]

Check out the Bellroy Venture sling or Aer Go Sling 2

[@michellestanding1410]

Hi good video How Big Water bottle can you Fit in the bag Bellroy sling bag 🇬🇧

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks so much! I'm not sure, maybe reach out to Bellroy to find out - they have pretty good customer service :)

[@richrise6851]

Hey @Nomads Nation, awesome review! Love your content & just subscribed. Question: I'm looking for a small bag that can fit a rather large 11-inch by 3.25 inch water bottle inside. You think it could fit that size?

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks so much for the kind words! Unfortunately I don't have the sling on me so I don't know for sure. I recommend reaching out to Bellroy to double check with them, they'll get you sorted :)

[@tomxaak]

I'm trying to figure out whether the Bellroy Sling will fit the iPad Mini 6th gen. Any idea? Btw the premium version has better organization and keyring.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Not sure dude, I’d ask Bellroy - they’ll get you sorted 💪🏾

[@unfi6798]

Kick ass job.! Cowabunga mate.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks so much - cowabunga!

[@akyerit]

Actually it comes in two sizes....??? The mini and the regular

[@Nomads.Nation]

Yes, good looks! There is a mini version as well

[@arifernandez7667]

@@Nomads.Nation ah this is the slim mini, it looked like the big one hehe

[@ajackson-ross7295]

Is the aer city sling better

[@Nomads.Nation]

imo, yes!

[@abdullaalraqem3894]

like the review man thanks! except the background noises and the dogs barking is kind of distracting. otherwise, well done! love the details and feedback!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Hey Abdulla - thanks for the love! Shooting our videos outside has its pros (awesome views) and cons (loud noises!). We are def working on keeping the noise down - thanks for the feedback!

[@ChinmayH]

It looks big compared to AER City sling which you have already reviewed, I am still in search for the perfect pack.. Would love to get your views on the Heimplanet sling.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Hey Chinmay! It's def bigger - good eye. We are hoping to review Heimplanet soon!

[@tricknfish6232]

The sunglass pocket is for a cell phone I believe

[@Nomads.Nation]

It seemed like a designated sunglasses pocket to me, but I could be very wrong

[@nenadnedovic9246]

How big water bottle will it hold.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Eh not 100% sure - definitely sounds like a question Bellroy could help you with

[@alirezaseyf5290]

I think the magnetic clasp is not too secure ! a thief can open it easily and stole your bag in the public .

[@Nomads.Nation]

This is a great point! Be sure to watch our Aer Day Sling review - it's going to be published next week and we discuss this thoroughly :)

[@udondon4334]

Can you use it in messenger style?

[@Nomads.Nation]

For sure!

[@RealMuperSan]

This was a good review, but I think it looks like a purse!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks! And yes! Many slings do, check out our modern dayfarer sling review - the ‘pursiest’ of them all haha

[@rafdegreve]

Imo seriously overpriced

[@Nomads.Nation]

You can definitely get something cheaper but it won’t have the same quality materials.
