Carhartt Mono Sling Backpack, Unisex Crossbody Bag for Travel and Hiking, Carhartt Brown

The overall design and layout is ideal. The material is rugged and waterproof, the “duck camo” print is subtle in person. The multiple zipper compartments and storage pouches make carrying anything a breeze.I’m 6’3 and the strap adjusted comfortably.

PROS:- The only side-open sling bag with tablet capacity I could find.- Fits all my daily needs, including an iPad Pro 11” (12” may or may not fit, it was tight with the Magic Keyboard on), chargers, multiple personal care items, phone, wallet, traveller’s journal, etc.- Everything fits flat and carries very comfortably.- Has a loop to secure any excess strap.- Really like the mesh zip section in the front pocket.NEUTRALS:- The material is a lot thinner than I was expecting from Carhartt. Not terrible since this helps lighten it, but I was expecting thicker.- It has a plastic buckle. Wasn’t expecting any different at this price point, but I prefer metal.- Collects dirt like crazy. I’m not new to black bags, and this one feels like a magnet for dirt prints. UPDATE: I was proved wrong. It will hold some contrasting dirt occasionally, but it stays clean for the most part. This is updated to a non-issue.- UPDATE: The hidden pocket will only hold keys OR a phone, probably an iPhone 14 Pro Max at most. Wider phones may run into issues fitting (such as the Duo).CONS:- It definitely runs small! I wear a men’s medium/women’s large and have a large bust - there’s only a few more inches of strap to expand it. I do tend to sit my packs lower, but even so I’m concerned about being able to wear it with any sort of heavy jacket.- The iPad/tablet pocket is pretty tight for an 11” iPad Pro, especially with a case. It can be awkward to maneuver in or out, especially with other items in the bag. (I’m not convinced this is entirely a con, because it seems inevitable to have the bag keep its size/shape, which I love). But you won’t be able to fit anything wider. UPDATE: I’ve taken to just leaving my iPad out of the slot if I have a lot of other items in the bag because it’s so awkward to get in. Hasn’t been a problem doing this though, other than general organization.INFO:- I couldn’t find ANY pictures of the interior pockets; I included some here. For those with vision impairment, the main pocket has a half-length padded tablet pocket on the back, and a half-length mesh on the front. The front pocket has a zippered mesh pocket across the length in the front and is otherwise open. There is also a ‘hidden’ fleece (?) lined side pocket for your wallet/phone/misc.CONCLUSION:- I love it. It’s going to be my daily for on-the-go and hoping it has good longevity. UPDATE: Still my everyday bag. I love this thing.

Great quality bag. I use it everyday as a work bag and it’s amazing. The main compartment has enough storage for a tablet, a book, a hoodie and a wallet with a mesh and regular pocket. The outside pocket is perfect for small things. The strap is padded and very comfortable with a clip to detach from the bag. Not too bulky and in some cool colors. My mom bought herself one after she saw mine.

I recently purchased this lightweight backpack for my daily commute to work in the city, and I must say I'm impressed with it so far. The backpack is incredibly light, making it comfortable to carry around. The texture and quality of the material used are promising, and I believe it will hold up well over time.What had me keep the backpack is how it accommodates the new Apple silicone 14 Pro machines. My laptop fits snugly with some room to spare for a potential laptop sleeve or case. Along with the laptop, I can comfortably fit my keyboard, trackpad, and chargers without any issues. The sling type design suits my preference for a sleek and minimalist bag that doesn't compromise on functionality. (The brand patch is also easy to remove)However, while there are enough openings and pockets for most items, you may find it beneficial to invest in an additional organizer to keep your smaller accessories in order (not a requirement).Despite this minor drawback, I can recommend this backpack, especially for developers or anyone looking to travel light. Its compact size combined with the ability to carry essential devices makes it an excellent choice.

This is a very nice Carhartt sling bag to throw over your shoulder & it matches my brown Carhartt jacket & vest.It has 1 large compartment for all of your things & 3 more smaller compartments.If you're a CPL holder it can carry what you need if you're not wearing a holster.I Love everything Carhartt & you can't go wrong with this.

Carhartt is such a great brand. Honestly anything with their name on it is going to be good.Love this bag! I'm a mom and it's perfect.Holds a lot of stuff and many pockets that help keep things organized. It's waterproof and so far toddler proof 😊It's one of the best bags I've ever bought. Quality is great and very sturdy. Definitely recommend.

Very good quality shoulder bag. Definitely worth the price. I was looking for an everyday - very durable, very lightweight, high quality materials bag. Carhartt delivered.It's not a backpacking backpack with tons of cubic inches and compartments. It has a very adequate number of zippered pouches including a very secure double zippered (with a key clip) place for keys.I'm very happy with it, should last many many years.

LOVE THIS BAG! Not too big but big enough to hold things needed for a day trip!
