The Mystery Ranch District 8: An Excellent EDC Crossbody Bag

[@Rudimental-ity]

Since it is for Urban setting, the Velcro is a good alarm feature for pick pockets but hassle if you are in a school class or a meeting.

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

That’s a great point!👍

Love the review. Been thinking about getting it for a while now. Velcro is kinda a dud for me but a good pocket for toiletries. If it can fit a steamdeck I will totally get this. Thank you for the video keep up the good work.

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

Thank you I really appreciate your feedback!

[@Scarywoody]

I was looking at this one and the Vertex and went Vertx as it seemed better constructed.

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

Yes I would agree that vertx is better constructed overall.

[@Algoma_adventures]

Great review

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

Thank you!!

[@redzuanrasul239]

Can they put a waterproof zip on back pocket to secure items inside? And put a magnet buckle is more awesome...

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

I personally don’t mind the back pocket being open like that but I would love magnetic closure vs that Velcro!

[@TheMacbu]

Very nice review, thanks a lot! 🥰👍 I've seen that the attachment points for the sling are very tiny (just small loops?) - have you had any problems with that (if you fully pack the bag)? And would a smaller nalgene bottle fit in one of the two front pouches?

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

Thanks for your comment! Yes the attachment points for the bag are just two small loops, which i admittedly am not a fan of. I wouldn’t say there was ever a definite “problem” with them when i packed the bag out a lot, but occasionally the strap would twist at those attachment points and it was kind of annoying for me. I don’t think a smaller Nalgene would fit well, although i do not have the bag anymore to test it out, unfortunately. Perhaps a small 16 oz would be ok-a bottle that was close to 6 in tall or smaller.

[@TheMacbu]

@@Enjoyyourcarry Thanks a lot! OK, that's what i thought. Too bad, Mystery Ranch somehow only goes 90% of the way ... I had the "Hip Monkey" and also had some problems with it. 😐

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

@TheMacbu I never tried the hip monkey but for some reason it never looked like it would work for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@TheMacbu]

@@Enjoyyourcarry I still have the "Full Moon". It's the smaller version, but it has one advantage - the bag doesn't roll over. The "Hip Monkey" has (like the Full Moon) compression straps, but in the lower third of the bag. That means if you pack it full, or if you have heavier things in the upper part of the bag (like i carry my wallet, for example), the bag tends to lean forward. It "rolls" and sits not very comfortable. The Full Moon on the other side is really a great bag, i added a bottle carrier from Mammut (the "MAMMUT Lithium Add-On Bottle Holder"). ^^ ☺

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

Nice! Thanks for the info👍. Yeah that rolling forward would drive me crazy lol

[@georgeseriani2482]

$69.00 on mystery ranch site you are right about alk the negative aspects but for some reason i still want it i dont know why

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

It’s a pretty good price considering how expensive some bags are these days. You could always get it and give it a try, and then sell it on eBay or something if you don’t like it enough to keep?🤷🏻‍♀️

[@georgeseriani2482]

I like. It😊

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

[@georgeseriani2482]

I have a case and a oadded sleeve

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

For your tablet, do you mean?

[@georgeseriani2482]

Yes my fire HD 8 plus this us $69.00 from the mystery ranch site I like this hummus color too I thinks worth a buy its not perfect but for the money I think it works🎉

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

Yeah I agree, good value for the money👍

[@hawkeye50]

No tech compartment, velcro enclosures, no grab handle = hard pass.

[@Enjoyyourcarry]

I hear ya! Those are must-haves for a lot of ppl!

[@jonuiuc]

The greenroom quickdraw has a similar opening , but it has a handle and not velcro.
