Flow Satchel (4L)

Bag is great, love the flat base design so it stands upright. like the waterbottle holder position too. Size is just nice to fit all that i normally bring daily with not too much or too little free space. Loops on both sides. If only the top design isn't slanted i could have fitted my 10.8" tablet in as well which will be perfect. Hence the 95%.

I was debating between 2L and 4L as the latter looked big on photos and I’m pretty skinny person. In reality it’s just right size. It fits all of my gear, keys, thermal cup, iPad and have space left for my kid’s change. Or you can take iPad and cup off and fit a bottle of wine and a bar of chocolate :)

Internal organisation is well thought, external loops is pretty useful. The only nitpick: it would be nice to have an internal hub-compatible loop as well. Don’t know why it’s not there

Oh, and quality. It’s as always on top of competition. Even my nitpicky wife was impressed

So, 6 of 5. Very recommended

I've been on a quest for the perfect everyday carry bag, and let me tell you, I've seen some things. But then, the Alpaka Flow 4L sashayed into my life, and it was love at first sight.

Before this, I thought the only thing a good alpaca was good for was providing cozy sweaters and maybe a judgmental stare. But this bag? This bag is a different breed entirely. It's got all the fluffiness of an alpaca, but none of the spitting. It’s got all the sleekness, but it won’t eat your favorite houseplant. And most importantly, it holds my keys without trying to bury them in a pile of dirt.

It’s surprisingly roomy for 4L, swallowing my daily essentials with ease—my phone, wallet, a charger, and even a small notebook for jotting down all the compliments I get. The side pocket is perfect for a water bottle, or, if you're like me, a big ol' can of iced coffee.

I've taken this bag on everything from a quick run to the store to a long day of pretending to be a professional photographer, and it's held up beautifully. The material is so tough, I'm pretty sure it could survive a stare down with a real alpaca and come out victorious.

If you’re looking for a bag that's reliable, stylish, and doesn't have a suspiciously long neck, look no further. This Alpaka is the real deal.

Been testing it out for about a week, and I really like it, it's become my main day bag and I've found myself leaving my backpack at home more often. I really like it for hikes because it's big enough to carry the things I want and the water bottle holder is really awesome. I like how it has organization but that it doesn't take up much of the actual storage space. I also really like the magnetic keyring attachment which is very convenient. The hidden back pocket also fits my kobo e-reader (libre 2) which is nice for when I want to stop and read.

When I have it loaded out the way I like it, it's not too heavy on my shoulder but some padding would be nice. I did also get the padded strap but it's too long even when maximally shortened so it's not useful to me. It could work if you don't mind the long strap (sits at my hip when fully shortened) or maybe if you're much taller than me (5'10").

I like the way the bag hugs my torso with the original strap, it feels very secure, and it doesn't bounce too much when I run (does bounce a little).

The main compartment can fit a steam deck with the slim case that comes with the OLED model, but it's a bit tight and can't fit much else with it in there. Without the case you can fit a bit more stuff but I haven't tested it much.

Overall, I love it and I'm excited to take it on all sorts of adventures.

Good size and hold ability for international travel.

Magnetic key holder too easily detached.

Side pocket zipper tab, to attach with small key carabiner (see photo for main pocket zipper pull tab)

Inside tab to hold small wallet/purse with key carabiner.

Small pen pocket for ease access.

Shoulder belt with more substantial material and the belt maybe easily detached.

Thank you,
