It's designed to look like the Lululemon Everywhere Bag that is pretty common to find. Pretty clever in my opinion. Just remove the second zipper pull tab. It's not even being used

[Aviation_Professional]

Thanks for this. I do have a concern if someone grabs the strap from behind and the plastic clip snaps. Many thieves out there looking for purses and backpacks these days sadly

[VictoriaVanWinkle-jg]

Thanks so much for this in depth video! I have been looking at these a lot. Lena put out a video saying to cut off the bottom zipper pull to avoid pulling both and zipping the bag back up.

You are the first person I’ve seen carrying the bag on the correct shoulder for ccw.

I use this for edc and I agree that the buckle needs to be fixed. It way too easy to accidentally open when making adjustments. I like your idea of using an elastic waist strap and I really wish you could pick the orientation of the side the buckle goes.

I can fit a glock 20 (10mm) with an rmr in a hill people gear chest pack. I use it for hiking in griz bear country while still concealing to prevent alarming other hikers. The back strap being a wide mesh allows you to carry a backpack over it

My daily carry bag. You can fit a g43x mos easily. I also have trl 6 light as well and it all fits. I use crossbreed modular holster. One thing to keep in mind is don’t just put your firearm in and walk away, practice dry fire daily zipping and unzipping and drawing.

I just got the vertx long walks waist pack. The one thing I wish it had is found on this model with the adjustable clips so you can move it from cross draw sling carry to waist pack carry. Mine doesn't do that so it flops forward on me when I try and sling carry it. Not a huge deal that it doesn't sit flush but it's probably not as slim line and as comfortable as this one. I can however carry a slightly larger firearm like a full size g17. It in fact fits my p30L perfectly.

Excellent points on the printing at the park

[ganankeck]

In depth video and you mentioned all the same things I don't like about the design. But still my favorite EDC fanny. I also like the 'fieldcraft survival' brand fanny.

[corax]

I may get one. All carry systems have pros and cons, and you need many different ways to carry based on what your are doing. I need something unobtrusive like this for daily summer wear ... even mowing the lawn. I looked at the price .... very reasonable. I have looked at other fanny pack holster systems, and they want an arm and a leg for them.

[Omaba_Baba]

Great review!!!! Thank you, answered a lot of my questions.

[NoLies]

I have a very similar pistol and I agree, the zipper needs to go down a bit lower / have a longer track. The buckle is a little too weak / too easy to disconnect. I'm thinking of some sort of locking tab as well or even just the buckle from the SOCP fanny pack. I'd also want the bag a half inch taller for my G48 with optic and TLR7 sub in a CB holster. If I don't want the bottom of the grip catching on the bag where the zipper stops, the zipper catches and hesitates on my optic when I'm unzipping. It's like 90% perfect for me.

[Samyouell]

Should give the tight chutes voyager a try. Pretty great pack, easy to adjust and the mars holster is dope.

[ToddE-wl]

Great bag, not a great strap. The bag is great quality, perfect fit for G43X. Strap s lightweight and strap retention loops are loose so extra strap tends to bunch up. These things can be remedied by Vertx. Hope they modify the strap design. Great bag for $50.

[corygholson]

Great video well thought and with lots of practical info..

[gustavonava]

What holster would you recommend for this fanny pack?

[c.s.s.]

Tasmanian tiger hip bag or hill people gear chest bag. Good options that i recommend. Actually well build

[middlerunningbackers]

I used pliers to remove the second zipper. Or you can simply remove the pull string from that unused zipper.

I recently bought an Eberlestock Bando bag, which you might be familiar with. It has some of the same features and is about the same size. I've been carrying a Ruger LCP Max in a Vedder pocket locker (Kydex) holster which has worked pretty well but pocket carry has pros and cons, like everything does. I've yet to find a comfortable IWB holster. I'm looking forward to carrying in the Bando bag but my question is about your velcro backed holster. What brand, and did it come with velcro already attached or did you install it? I think a proper kydex holster in this configuration is much more secure than the soft/velcro wraps. Thanks for a great review!
