MARK RYDENMARK RYDEN Sling Backpack Men, Waterproof Shoulder Bag with USB Charging Port and Adjustable Strap, Holds 9.7 Inch ipad, Sling Bag for Traveling, Sporting, Cycling, Daily

I loved the quality of this bag. The materials felt premium and overall the bag was well made. It would have been the perfect small sling for travel or even every day except that the zippered openings were just too small. The top of the bag narrows and the zipper sits on top, creating such a small opening to that compartment. The back zipper takes a strange path as well, going a bit around the bottom, up just one side, and over the top. I don't see how I would have moved things in/out without everything inside spilling. It's a shame the design has such issues because the bag itself looks and feels very high quality.

Clean modern appearanceAccessibility is great (able to quickly grab items out of it and not have to dig)Works well just over the shoulder or across the bodyWater bottle holder works perfectlyiPad 9.7" in a case fits a bit tight but solid enoughOverall I use this bag to hold my glasses, phone, iPad, water bottle, iPad charger, phone charger, hand sanitizer, Pen, small notepad, wallet, small Tupperware box (for a sandwich and sliced apples or other lunch items). As well as other miscellaneous items as necessary. It all fits neatly and organized within the bag.Note: I have not tried using the charger or using a battery brick yet.Based on my experience with the bag so far I would recommend it to a friend. Has been a solid purchase for me.

**Would be nice to have more adjustability. Perhaps a buckle with tightening strap. The current tensioner only tightens so much and it still can't fit my 5'7 170lbs frame.**Maybe you should have a buckle meet in the middle of the sling. So the sling has two ends that connect and then just have a long adjusting rope.** in conclusion it'd be awesome to have more adaptability to smaller frames.

I was looking for a pack small enough to be a “personal item” on international flights yet large enough to carry basic necessities like travel documents, a water bottel, ipad, power cords and adapters and a few snacks. A crossbody slingbag is perfect for this as it is much easier to put on and take off than a back pack, can be accessed while wearing and, if well designed, can be comfotable to wear. After trying several, all of them disapponting, I ordered the Mark Ryden. It is absolutely the best I’ve found. It has features that are lacking on most, has a strap that is long enough to adjust comfotably for taller wearers, has plenty of space for my needs and the materials and construction seem to be comparable to higher priced brands. I’m very pleased with this product.

I've ordered various messenger bags but this beats them all it's very Compact and sleek looking. It's extraordinarily well-made and very sturdy. Most of all it fits perfectly on my shoulder and doesn't slip off, this is a small miracle.It fits a 12 oz water bottle, a zmall/medium Snapware (5 1/2 cups) container for my lunch, a daily newspaer with room to spare. There is a small pouch on the outside of the bag for a water bottle. It is very expandable and very light weight.It looks more expensive than the price I paid for it and I can't give this sling bag more compliments than I have. I guess I could, I just can't think of them right now.

Bought this bag to replace a side bag that has worked for my travel needs for years. This bag seemed to be the right option.Upon getting it, it wasn’t quite as big as described. I measured it and found the dimensions slightly smaller that what was shown. None the less checked it out to see if it will still work for my needs. There are two main pouches. The main one has a zipper that opens on one side and the top, not all the way to the other side. Unfortunately, for me it’s the opposite side of what I needed and how I wear it. Should have noticed that. Inside, there’s the pocket for an iPad. The top one only fits a 9.7pro without cover. Not useful. The other pocket can fit a 9.7pro with cover very very snugly. It is quit difficult to remove from the pocket. Not useful. The other pouch is roomy but has a very small opening on the top. Makes it nearly impossible to put anything other than little items in there.Item was not useful to my needs. Ended up going back to my old bag. Which isn’t that much bigger just the pockets are more accommodating.The bag itself seems very well made with many small thoughtful features just not in the areas that I needed it to be. Will have to figure out another use for this bag.

This bag is perfect for all my electronics. I travel a lot and needed something that was compact and sleek.As you can see in the pictures I was able to fit my mac air, ipad, hard drive, dongle, 3 chargers, headphones and my glasses case.The front pocket has a cool keychain clip and it can fit my switch perfectly which is a plus!Overall it's a very stylish bag the material looks nice and durable. I think it's definitely going to be my go to bag for work and traveling.

Great size for sightseeing - very practical - my husband even liked to use it
