By Far, The Best EDC Sling Bag Made in the USA!

[@MarineX]

Correction this is Hip sling at $169 still a great price. Check it out here www.sfbags.com/products/hip-sling-bag

[@fcorucci]

just want do double check whether this is the smaller version ("compact") or the bigger one ("full"). Thanks!

[@kevinhauser8250]

I'm gonna grab one because of this review. Thank you good sir.

[@gOOnz901]

Simp I hope it makes you form a lisp.

[@TheFunkytownGotcha]

just recently purchased this. I've been needed a sling for shows and sport events. your vid confirmed everything I wanted to hear and check all my boxes I was looking for in a sling.

[@laeonflux]

Those small attachment points are meant to act as counterpulls to make it easier to open and close the zippers. I mean, you can use them to attach gear but their actual intended use is as counterpulls.

[@ascolletti]

Fantastic product and another great review. I love my Waterfield bags and have a ton of them

[@CMKKLed]

Do you know if this can fit a 6-7cm dia bottle in the main compartment ?

[@JeanB-]

I wanted to buy the compact hip sling today but the waxed canvas chocolate leather is out of stock. When I mailed them to ask when it would be available again they replied me that the hip sling bags are being discontinued. Also the Mason EDC which was my second choice, is no longer on the website… 😕

[@qwik66]

Great review, thank you! Was about to pull the trigger and had this in my cart and Waterfield emailed me if I have any questions. They said they are coming out with the Shinjuku Sling soon, have you had an opportunity to see this?

[@EDC_ESQ]

Thank you for the review! Looks very nice, but I think I'll wait for an improved version that opens up more.

[@83Yankee]

It’s a simple, nice looking bag that doesn’t scream “tactical” or look like a hiking bag. Very nice.

[@johnmcgregor1186]

I would have liked a zipper pocket along the back like most other slings I have been looking at recently. However it would have been a no brainer at $129. At $169, I’ll keep it on my radar but I’m not sold yet.

[@denniskirschbaum9109]

Nice review. You really show all the features. Waterfield makes beautiful bags handmade in the US. Yes, they cost a bit more than something made abroad but worth it IMHO. I have a different sling from Waterfield and I use it as an organizer in a larger bag. When you get where you are going and need a smaller bag, it comes out and goes with, while the bigger bag stays at the hotel. Waterfield also stands behind their products. Buy the best, cry once.

[@ryanfletcher317]

Ty for the review! Very nice bag

[@cfolas]

I have been buying Waterfield bags for several years now, and can't recommend them enough. Everything has been extremely high quality. I don't have this exact bag, but all of the ones I do have are the waxed canvas/chocolate leather design and they're great

[@johnhawkins3986]

Since I saw you with that, Tomtoc I was sold. I’m still rocking that from this day. That’s the best sling bag I have ever owned. Thanks again Marine.x ✌🏾✌🏾

[@fossilimprint2954]

Thank you for the detailed review, love that the strap can be removed.

[@junkcuber5611]

I like the leather front a lot, I wish NutSac and these guys could CoLab and put their sling products together… they both fell a little short in areas where the other excelled, but this is nicer & cheaper than the NutSac Speed Sling.

[@Wild5ive]

I was sold on the large version. The $179.00 price tag is the only thing holding me up. The completely removable strap was the win for me

[@MikeandIkes_EDC]

Nice little sling, I like it

[@Clemdawg-0]

Appreciate the context X! Have you ever done videos on concealed EDC bags yet? Be cool if some of those got in the mix

[@1977NOBODY]

People sleep on Waterfield they make some great bags,Zip wallets they even got some little edc pouches.

[@jasonbeecher509]

Awesome looking bag

[@zachevans3658]

This versus the alpaca mini sling?

[@CompassCustomCreations]

2 minutes in and and I was sold!😂🤣

[@CompassCustomCreations]

ehhhh, not at $169.. 😢

[@JimBrown-sm1wi]

Check out the shutter tech sling . Comes in 2 sizes . I very picky and by far my favorite . High quality . Grey man . Perfect

[@MarineX]

I reviewed it. Nice bag

[@williamtrezvant5551]

Chrome Kadet is great bag - and for about $100 is great price as well -

[@lens7859]

Is that the Roaring Fire Sling bag in the background ? Thats what I have been using, but I put too much crap in it I find myself leaving it in the car. This is something I may need. Another layer for minimal carry days, or with a sling bag in the trunk.

[@danielledaily434]

Do you recommend the short or long strap?

[@mcamacho9609]

If you had to buy only one sling from Waterfield for EDC would you recommend the Sutter Tech Sling or this Hip Sling?

[@MarineX]

Sutter Tech Sling with the added grab handle for $25 extra

[@mcamacho9609]

@@MarineX Awesome, thank you. Great channel BTW

[@tomslovenski]

Definitely a step up from NutSacs MBD and Speed Sling

[@Hobard33]

Have you tried DEFY bags out of Chicago before? They have a lot of products I feel like are right up your alley.

[@VincentTamer]

WaterField is awesome. I had a nutsac sling for a while and while it was well made I couldn’t make it my edc because of that stupid name. At some point someone at my church is going to ask me where I got this cool bag. 👎🏻 I’ve been eying WaterField for a bit. Everything they have is professional looking and rugged. I picked up the Essential Crossbody and I like dig it. The mason sling looks great too.

[@BOH1995]

It would be nice to have some sort of grab handle.

[@tap42al]

Hill People Gear has a nice bag

[@BrianKasnowski]

Love your content... while it is not an EDC company so to speak, check out the Chrome Slings... made more for bike messengers, but damn does mine come in handy... has everything you look for minus a detachable strap and waxed canvas...

[@NativeEDC]

Got mine from Data Crew in Los Angeles. I love it. Recommend to check it out.

[@Castleknight]

Did you get the short or long strap?

[@MarineX]

Long I think because I can wear it like a waist pack and I have a dad bod

[@BrokenCurtain]

@@MarineX What's the maximum length of the long strap? I can't find information.

[@razor91096]

I honestly think the vertex/alpaka desk caddy sling is better. Just my opinion. No not leather. But organization and other features I think are better. About same price too

[@RogueScholarSimple]

It looks nice, but is it a bag for concealed carrying a M1911?

[@damonharrington2948]

Nice bag. Interested.

[@cesarruiz6180]

You got me excited when u said 129

[@MarineX]

I misquoted the price

[@MR-jt2rh]

129$ is perfect, but not for 169$.😎

[@keithtincher7223]

That buckle is just like alpaka

[@BrokenCurtain]

It's a "Fidlock V-buckle". Those are used by multiple manufacturers of bags.

[@grahambinoreviews]

Looks similar to the nutsac fast sling.

[@E-MountainBikerBae]

Heya!!! ❤️🧡💛💚💙 How’s It Going ??? ??? ??? When Do We Get To See An Extensive Detailed Review On The Snack Time Sling Bag By The Famous L.A Brand “Data Crew” ??? ??? ??? Been Watching All The Reviews On It Which Is Out There…

[@Rich_EDC]

When you say "best" and "U.S.A" my wallet shrinks alittle

[@andrewmechabolt8519]

It's on the expensive side just because it has made in USA in it tbh. Not doubting quality or anything but yeah,with $120 sure,pricey but reasonable. 169 is just not a good price.

[@timmi2030]

Was interested but the small opening is a big no for me

[@djwright86]

Wrong bag. This is not the Mason EDC bag, its the Hip Sling bag for $169 brother. Ya got me to their site tho...

[@MarineX]

Great catch

[@OnusBones]

Too rich for my peasant blood. A Veto CP4 is likely more my style.

[@tomc.1983]

You really should edit this video to correct the price to $169. I was all set to buy this based on your review, and then reality set in. I’m a big fan of yours, and trust your reviews. This one left me a bit disappointed, especially knowing the video is 3 weeks old. Perhaps they gave you bad information to work with…either way it should be corrected.

[@MarineX]

Hey brother. I pinned a comment correctingn myself and I posted the correction in the video description. Thanks

[@BrokenCurtain]

I need to cancel my subscription to this channel, you make me want to buy too many bags. The orange interior reminds me of my bags from Alpaka. Specifically the "Alpaka Elements Tech Case". I also have the "Alpaka Bravo Sling" in the default and max size, if you don't know those, you might want to check them out, too.

[@wisconsinwoodsman1987]

That is machine, not hand sewn.

[@MarineX]

Source?

[@wisconsinwoodsman1987]

I’m a gear maker who’s worked with leather and canvas for years. You can tell machine stitching buy just looking at it.

[@MarineX]

@@wisconsinwoodsman1987 Roger that

[@jeh966]

125 🤕

[@cholmes7754]

Pretty sure that’s a purse

[@TheScoops82]

based in San Fran? no thanks. good review though.

[@MarineX]

Fair enough!

[@BrokenCurtain]

Why would that matter?

[@adambrown6930]

Bought a Nutsac over Waterfield simply due to WF being made in San Francisco. 🤮

[@oidokun]

You guys are fuckin idiots

[@damonharrington2948]

😂😂😂

[@gOOnz901]

That bag sucks. Rather get a data snacksling

[@3vil3lvis]

Some of us remember when they sold dolls to boys and called them Action figures... tell me how that sling isn't a purse? Its leather, over priced, you put your wallet in it and you wear it over your shoulder. X? have you turned into QVC? cause you are giving me that vibe with this sales pitch. Go on go watch QVC for 15 seconds, then watch this video to see the similarities. The only thing you are missing is an overlay with an item number, price and count down clock displaying how many minutes you can spend hyping this purse. From a production value perspective, this video is about as lazy as the QVC stuff only missing a lazy Susan to spin that purse upon. Would have been better if you did some shots of the item while slowly and smoothly moving toward it with your camera on rails or a steadicam gimball. Followed by some action shots of you riding your one wheel to a local shop and buying a what-a-burger with the cash in your purse. Still don't believe that it's a purse? Ask your kids, you can trust that they will be brutally honest.
