Metro Crossbody – Left Shoulder

First off, let me get this part out of the way… I’ve been wanting some alpaka gear for a long time and it took a lot for me not to buy stuff for Black Friday because those deals were epic… but I was buying other things… I took advantage though of the 20% off each item mix and match… it was too good to pass up… I’ve wanted this bag for a long time and wish they offered the grey in x-pac but the normal material used is outstanding… I’m a switch 2 power user as well as my other electronics… iPad Pro 11inch, MacBook Air etc…but a lot of the bags I own is too heavy for EDC usage so I wanted a more minimalist edc switch bag… this was the answer to my prayers… I have another brands sling that I use that’s a 5.5 litre bag and I figured this being 7.5litres or whatever it was would give me a tad bit more room to carry one or two more items… that wasn’t the case… I’m making due with the space given but I actually fit a bit less in this bag vs the 5.5 litre and I think it’s because of the water bottle sleeve.. one thing I do have to say is this sling is the most comfortable sling I’ve ever worn… normally I wear my sling up front because of the things I have in the bag it feels more comfortable up front… but this bag I wear it on my back and my oh my it’s the best bag I’ve worn.. I’m a bigger guy 6’1 318 and the bag fits me well (even with the retention side strap)… alpaka did amazing.,. I love the grey on orange colour scheme as well.. this is my daily edc sling for my switch and my 5.5…

I was impressed immediately with the design and detail. I know many will enjoy the outside pocket for water bottles, and every review reminds you that it takes up some of the interior space as well. I have been carrying the "Slim" Memobottle for some time now as my primary water bottle and it is the perfect mate to the Metro Crossbody as it takes up very little internal space and is a perfect fit for the pocket when zipped up. If you were hoping it would hold a 13" iPad with a magic keyboard, I can assure you it won't. But it's the exact right size for the 11" version. Its comfortable as well. Can't wait to take it to Germany next week!

I love this crossbody slug. It looks and feels great and has a lot of utility making it versatile. The construction is impeccable and will last for a very long time. It's also spacious enough where you don't feel like you need a big book bag or regret having a smaller sling it's just right. It also feels great wearing it.
