Two big flaws. AER Day Sling 3 Slingbag review

[@dtom420]

Thanks for the video - I was considering this bag. The issue with the bag slipping is an EASY DIY fix. I use the same trick and many other lightweight backpackers with lots of our slippery nylon gear. All you do is take a tube of clear silicone, press the mouth of the tube against the fabric (in this case, the inside of the strap and possibly the bottom half of the bag, on the side facing inward), squeeze and then lift away from the fabric. The idea is to leave a small, thin dot. Create a pattern of these dots along every part of the surface that will come in contact with your clothing. Don’t make the dots large - you want them to provide the grip to prevent sliding, but you do NOT want to make them so prominent that your buckle won’t slide when/where you need it to. Let the silicone dry for 36-48hrs and your slipping problem will be 100% solved. Hope this helps someone! The maker ought to do this but it’s such an easy fix that I wouldn’t let it keep me from purchasing it.

[@ChrisCarries_EDC]

That's a cool discovery! So it is basically silicone sealant (like the stuff you'd use to seal a bathtub/shower tray etc) you are applying?

[@Tamieca.M]

Great hack. Thank you!

[@bigzv6948]

Can you make a video on this

[@Nomads.Nation]

Love that ‘Bo Wiggle’ when you demonstrate how slippery the materials are 🕺 😂. Great review dude!

[@ootz0rz]

Wish I had seen this before buying. Having a lot of trouble with the sliding around on my body. Did you ever find a way to address this or have any ideas on how to modify the bag to make it better? The biggest problem is that as the strap slides up along my shoulder to my neck.. and then it rotates around my body, it starts to grate my neck :( my first day wearing it it looked like I had been choked out lol.

[@SeanSeesAdventure]

Good review It's amazing how many people don't mention how their sling bags ride on their body. You explained how it slides around very well, and maybe convinced me to look at other options.

[@Youknowthebo]

Thank you very much. Appreciate the positive feedback 😉✌️

[@Criticalmaze]

@@YouknowtheboCan you link the tape you used for the fidlock?😢

[@Youknowthebo]

@@Criticalmaze no problem. It's so called gaffer's tape. That kind of tape does not leave a lot of glue residue and is therefore used a lot in the film industry. Here is a link on Amazon Germany, but you should be able to find similar tape in your country amzn.to/3MSkysL

[@haroldg1688]

how is it slipping on you? i have the slippery xpac and it stays i also have a different sling bag made with ballistic nylon and they also don't slip i guess you could get a bag with a breathable back fabric maybe that will work? while comfortable that is my CON for this bag the back is not made of mesh/breathable fabric and the straps are HARD. my other cheaper bags use some sort of soft smooth seatbelt like material. with the same magnet buckle you don't hate. but they are made of some nylon material with a thick face its almost rubbery. feels good but it's not xpac. it doesn't have hi visibility orange interior.

[@emeraldcityevan]

I agree with others: teleprompter worked great. If it makes your life easier, keep using it! Regarding sling bag size: a larger one is useful for travel when relying on a single travel backpack. You can wear a 6 or even 9L sling on the front to keep items in reach and safe while wearing a larger travel bag on your back. For daily use, I agree that a smaller sling is ideal. I’ve relied on the Day Sling 2 for that and haven’t been bothered by it slipping, as you have. I carry a GR3 and GR3x plus essential items with ease.

[@Youknowthebo]

That's a good usecase. But with a backpack the strap of the sling would be kept in place perfectly. So I will definitely keep this trick in mind for my next travel. Thanks

[@reynorpadilla-rx3bu]

I have the Aer Day Sling 3 Max and the fidlock is the worst. I had it zip tied for awhile but when summer came and I was wearing loose clothing the zip tie would rub against my arm even though it was trimmed very short and filed down. I’m sending it back but not sure what else to get since I love this bag.

[@gmaxband0321]

Awesome video! What can you recommend between this vs the Aer Day Sling 2?

[@stanleyomar]

I totally agree about the Fidlock and other magnetic or quick-release buckles/straps. I notice this trend when researching my current sling and wondered immediately why anyone would want that. A bag should NEVER accidentally fall off your body, especially one which might hold things that don't take falls very well (like cameras), and since it's already so easy to put a sling on over your head, it just seems like the risk far outweighs any benefit.

[@Youknowthebo]

Thanks for the comment. Totally agree. Pulling a sling over the head is just the one thing that doesn't always work for me though. On a motorcycle I can't always pull it over my head. Either because I am wearing a helmet or because the armor inside my jacket makes arm movement difficult. That is why I like a regular buckle on the strap.

[@stanleyomar]

@@Youknowthebo Ah, that makes sense and I hadn't thought of that. For me, because I knew I'd be carrying a camera, your tape idea was the first thing I thought of when I saw that these style of clasps closed with magnets.

[@justinc1041]

Thoughts on the aer day sling 3 ultra? Basically the same but with v fidlock now

[@fridolin3451]

Thank you for showing how your camera fits in your sling. I was always unsure if my GM5 would fit inside. Now I know! Thank you so much for this!

[@Youknowthebo]

You're very welcome. Thanks for watching 😉 ✌️

[@MehoyMenoy13]

I have both the daysling 3 and city sling 2 I love both of them! Still consider the chrome kadet to be my favorite sling of all time

[@jaygray91]

Thanks for the review Bo. Did not notice the teleprompter at all. :) I've been eyeing this bag since its release and I think you're the first to mention how slippery the bag is. Half a dealbreaker to me, and unfortunate about that kind of fidlock / magnetic buckle as well, since I'm planning to start riding motorcycle for work. So what would you recommend as alternative to the Day Sling 3? I think the Heimplanet Pocket Sling XL could be worthy. That's another one that I've been looking at reviews. Would you recommend the Heimplanet over the Aer?

[@Youknowthebo]

Yeah, the Heimplanet is a solid option. The buckle is very secure. And the pocket sling is small enough to not slide around due to weight. And if you don't mind a bit sliding around the the pocket xl is amazing. It was my favorite slingbag in 2021

[@mianalihumayun1241]

Great review!! You raised some very interesting points that will effect my purchase decision! Also, great job with the teleprompter, you're only going to get better as time goes by!!

[@stray_vrtx]

I always thought my slingbags shouldnt be bigger than 3l. Until i found the trakke largo - its 5.5l and the most comfortable sling ever. Also the cobra buckle is just awesome

[@LizzKillian]

I noticed the gray DS3 is 700D Cordura. I assume that should be less slick? I would prefer black. But thinking I might try the gray.

[@factsudidintknowabout]

Hi, is the wigle noticible/happening when the sling is worn on the back? I usually don’t wear my sling on the front, thats why i’m asking. Thanks

[@CO-kd6sd]

I was eyeing this one for a bit. I don't like Fidlock either but was contemplating just replacing the buckle until you mentioned the sliding problem. That's absolutely a dealbreaker for me. I'd like a sling that stays close to the body at all times. I see so many that hang down by default which would just feel off for me. Great video. That info kept me from making a mistake! Cheers, Bo!

[@Youknowthebo]

Yeah: slingbags that just hang like a purse to the side aren't my cup of tea either

[@sensible202]

@@Youknowthebo No guy wants to wear a purse. That's gravity for you.

[@tmlee7237]

Appreciate very much your honest review. I also agree the fidlock has design issues. (I dont own one but can imagine this major flaw of an otherwise brilliant design.) I have a suggestion. Instead of taping up yr fidlock buckle, how about this … look for a suitable sized bicycle rubber inner tubing , cut a length say 2.5inches, push the open buckle thru the tubing, lock the buckle, then pull the inner tubing over the fidlock closed buckle. It shld be very secure, becos of the rubber friction over metal. Its a quick solution like rubber band, only neater. Furthermore , its black tubing - perfect color match. Another solution is use a velcro or button type bag handle keeper , those short leather straps that keep bag handles together. Find a way to attach those over the buckle.

[@anon003]

Do you think a 0.8 inches diameter rubber inner tubing is good? Is it too small? I do not know which size to buy to lock the buckle.

[@tmleem4]

@@anon003 i dunno. You could experiment . Do let us know if such an improv works. 😊

[@stvsueoka1]

I had questions about the fidlock and your points are great.

[@jackolantern7342]

I agree with you completely on the fidlock and other such magnetic locks. They look cool and all but open when you're not expecting them too -and therefore fail as a "fastener"

[@jasonkatada1583]

What do you think of the X pack material for your issues?

[@mitchiemura4229]

The quality of the narration has greatly improved with the teleprompter and I didn´t notice you were reading out of it. Keep up the good work, Bo!

[@allancusi4052]

Agree, the fidlock is a dealbreaker. I hope the guys at AER act on this asap.

[@Youknowthebo]

Yeah, I hope they switch to different fidlocks or buckles in the future

[@rkvisuals]

100% agree. They should stick to the good old basic buckles.

[@RomanTruman]

Thank you for such practical review. Also thought about this sling, but finally bought a Tomtoc H02 Sling Bag.

[@Arrowsmith86]

I totally agree with you on the sliding and the lock. No deal for me. What other sling bags would you recommend that do not have both those issues?

[@Youknowthebo]

I really like the small Heimplanet pocket sling. It doesn't have a quick release, but it is very secure. And due to its smaller size it is also not as prone to sliding around

[@veritas.ve.42]

Agree with you. 👍🏻2 liters is the limit.

[@elanthys]

Can’t say I’ve had any issue with the Fidlock on my Day 3 Max, but I also tend to wear it more messenger style than crossbody so maybe that’s a factor… I tighten it for bike rides but I tend to adjust positions by scooping the bag rather than pulling the strap too so I never really get close to touching the lock.

[@Youknowthebo]

Thanks for sharing your experience 👍

[@jimmykez3066]

Wish I saw this review before I purchased mine. It's also annoying how the strap rubs on your neck eventually due to the slip. Do you have a recommendation for a close alternative to the Aer Day Sling 3? Cheers!

[@Youknowthebo]

I recently reviewed the code of bell Xpod. And I liked that one a lot. I think that one is a good alternative.here is my review kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppLKo6iOjM99sKc

[@RK-MODE]

I actually don’t like fidlocks (not sure if I spelled it right) but is it too hard to slip the strap over your head? lol. I own most of the Alpaka bags, slings and tech briefs and never use the magnetic buckles.

[@andrewnesterenko7274]

Teleprompter works good. Didn’t notice a thing until you mentioned it. BTW what do you think of x-pac version - would’ve it solved the slippery issue?

[@Youknowthebo]

Thanks. I think xpac is even more slippery. So I don't believe that would have solved my issue

[@DenManORama]

Yes, keep using your teleprompter as you want (BTW, you work it well). I don't like Fidlock or the magnetic types either and probably won't buy anything with one. I am leaning toward a 3L sling at this time; however, I haven't yet decided. Thanks for your review. Perhaps you could review the AER Day Sling 3 X-Pac, I would like to know your thoughts on the different materials and whether they would not slide under your arm in the same way. Take care.

[@Youknowthebo]

Xpac is amazing. Love the fabrics, however I believe they would be too "slippery" as well on a single strap kind of bag.

[@jhagley]

Man, that slippery fabric is such a good point, and I haven't seen anyone mention this before. Thanks for the heads up!

[@Youknowthebo]

Thanks. You're very welcome

[@leithmurray736]

Just my opinion. A sling bag is not designed to be carried in the front while moving around , it’s designed to be carried at the back and you access it from the front.

[@semzip8558]

Not if you live in a place with pickpockets

[@WaLeEd007]

Hey, do you think a 710ml (24oz) water bottle would fit?

[@MadCook1e]

Hm, I had zero issues with fidlock and I like it. I also had zero issues with sliding, although I don't like that sling is not very close to the body if I wear it on the front.

[@CaptCanuck4444]

An elastic keeper that could slide over the fidlock would solve this issue, and still make the buckle useable.

[@Youknowthebo]

That's actually a pretty dope idea. Thanks, Stephen

The fidlock issue is unfortunate. There are better fidlock options that are way more secure available now. I think it would be cool to see Cobra buckles as well.

[@zerousen]

@@Youknowthebo Yeah you are right, if I remember correctly they can be upwards of 50 usd a buckle 😱

[@chrispnw2547]

This sling bag shifting is quite common so I have bags from Alpaka Gear that offer a magnetic stabilizer strap option ($25 USD). It works very well and I have used it when I ride my motorcycle as shifting loads can cause problems on the move. The website even shows a motorcyclist using the stabilizer strap.

[@Youknowthebo]

Yeah, a stabilizer strap is a good idea. But for me I then don't know if I should not just go ahead and use a small backpack. I might try to wear a slingbag as a fanny pack in the future whenever I am on a bike.

[@spektrograf]

[@bentobox3140]

Thanks for pointing out that sliding issue. It'll be terrible for me when I'm riding a bicycle. Need more reviews pointing out huge flaws in bags. I love my Alpaka Elements backpack but it weighs about a kilo when completely unloaded. Makes for a horrible choice when I'm carrying 4kg+.

[@Youknowthebo]

Thanks. I like to concentrate on negatives, just because I believe they are more important for you to know. With that knowledge you can easier decide if you can live or work around them.

[@gonefishingapodaca]

I’ve only tried a few slings and they almost always slide under my armpit. I try and pull them high and tight, but then they are difficult to access. Slung low, might as well have a satchel!

[@Youknowthebo]

Yeah, that's the tradeoff with slingbags. But that's basically why I prefer them to be smaller so there is less weight that is pulled by gravity

[@israelfigueroa4391]

I assumed companies avoided stickier fabrics on slings so people wouldn’t complain that their slings wrecked their clothing. Merino wool would be susceptible to abrasion, for instance.

[@sleepingfaster]

Magnets seem to be jumping into bags for so many bags these days, often with minimal use. Another flaw for me, particularly for pocket closures, is their impact on mechanics watches. I’ve ruled out a few bags now due to not wanting to damage my watch.

[@Youknowthebo]

Magnets definitely can damage or at least influence automatic watches. Never thought about this I regards to fidlocks though, just because they don't seem to be that strong

[@sleepingfaster]

@@Youknowthebo yeah. Anecdotal but my friend’s watch was magnetised by the magnet in his MacBook. It’s not hard to demagnetise but I’d rather avoid it. To be honest, I watched your other Fidlock video and magnetism combined with accidental release out me off getting the Day Sling. I went for the Trakke Banana instead, as it had a metal buckle similar to the Heimplanet. Very happy with the choice as, whilst it’s 3 litres, it compresses down very slim when empty.

[@veeel1016]

What kind of tape is that?

[@Youknowthebo]

It's gaffers tape. The benefit of gaffers tape is, that you can easily remove it without leaving any residue. Gaffers tape is used for photography, film making or events. It's more expensive than duck tape, but again is much more recommend if you want to use it on gear for instance

[@bingbing2515]

Aer is just jumping on the trend. Everyone loves magnetics, especially when they are incorporated into a bag, unfortunately the type of magnetic they choose doesn't seem like a good fit. This is the same for the Travel Pack line where the magnetic compression strap has become detached. Even if the bag costs a bit more, I would of preferred a much more secure buckle. I do agree with bag sliding around to the side. I ride a sports bike and its even worst for me with the more aggressive position lol.

I use the Bellroy sling and the magnetic lock is not bad. But I wouldn't use it for cycling in general. I tend to prefer a small backpack or a messenger bag with stabiliser strap when on a bicycle. The sling bag slipping itself is the more annoying factor for my situation. I do have a sling with no maglock which is my favourite. I bought it in Japan a long time ago and have not seen a similar one since.

[@EsbenH]

Bo, thanks so much for this review. I recently bought the City Sling 2 and definitely agree on the sliding around part, but man I still love it so much (it's my first sling to boot). Would love to see a video with mods you can make to stop it from sliding e.g. by putting a coating on it or other solutions, if you happen to know any. Also, do you know if any resellers in EU are selling Aer? I ended up buying mine from a UK online reseller, but would definitely love to see a reseller in Germany or Scandinavia. Thanks again, and didn't mind the teleprompter at all. Agree with the other commenter that because you have so much b roll it's not really noticeable.

[@Youknowthebo]

The City sling is great. In my experience it's not as bad in terms of sliding around compared to the day sling. You can check out keus and mukama. They are both in EU and have some aer stuff if I remember correctly

Honestly I had no idea you were reading off a teleprompter. I think because you sprinkle your videos with so many different shots of the product in question, while you are talking over the video, you talking in person does not actually make up a majority of the video length. I think if you were to start posting videos where it's just you talking in front of a video for 15+ minutes, then I'll probably suspect there's a teleprompter in front of you. Other than that, great job, I thought you read off the teleprompter very naturally.👍

[@Youknowthebo]

Valid point. Thanks for the feedback ✌️😉

[@AlinaTrevino-bg7js]

since you are already using tape, why can't you just put a little bit of grip tape on the back of your aer bag so that it does not slide?

[@Youknowthebo]

To solve the problem this is an interesting idea. But grip tape would damage all of your clothing. Therefore I would advise against this modification

[@AlinaTrevino-bg7js]

tomtoc t21 is 9.45oz versus the heavier aer day sling 3 xpac: 13.79oz. i chose tomtoc, lighter, more compact, fits the body better, half the price, zipper opens easier. looks better in my opinion, doesn't have issues with buckle. aer seems over built for my use case of light city walking. Because it's half the price, I can buy the larger tomtoc 11 inch version for days when I need more capacity. I can have 2 of these bags for about the same cost of the aer bag. I have them all here to try, but for me in person it's clear which one I want to keep and which to return. I have to travel to the SF aer store tomorrow to return before my 14 day return window ends.
