Practical, comfortable, stylish and super spacious SLING

I have had the pleasure of wearing the "ACTIVE SLING" from Modern Dayfarer for the past few weeks. I really appreciate accessories and clothing items that are practical but also look unique. I am positively surprised by the details that are associated with this product. Both the quality of the material and the finishes clearly show us that this is a premium class product. I use this sling on a daily basis, and I must admit that I am able to pack all items I need into it without stretching the space too much. Even with such packing, the Sling looks excellent. It also doesn't matter how many items I put inside - with proper organization it is mega comfortable (strap is just great) and most importantly, gives me the feeling that they are safe (magnetic closure) and I can reach for them at any time. Sling has a great use for daily activities, but also for pursuing hobbies such as photography. I can heartily recommend it to both EDC fans and people who are looking for a sling that will be practical and also add style to your outfit, whether for everyday wear or business purposes.

The best pocket reliever ever!

This little fellow was what I was looking for! Empty pant pockets is the way to go and this sling works fantastically! The materials are premium, the fidlock system makes it so you just push down on the main flap to close the bag. So easy and it feels secure! Would I have like a key leach? Maybe.. would I have like an extra .3 litres? Possibly.. but the size forces me to stay minimal, which keeps me organized. I definitely recommend this little guy! The customer service was amazing, big thanks to David who made the whole experience pleasant for me. Hoping to purchase the V2 soon, as I fell in love with this company!

Great every day carry bag

I purchased this as an alternative to my Aer City Sling 2 (which I really like). I'm writing this review about a month from having switched and can say that the Active Sling is going to stay as my daily carry. The magnetic access main stow is a quality of life improvement that I didn't know I needed making it more likely that I will keep useful items on my person. Overall this slings a lot better over the shoulder as well. The City Sling 2 tends to cut into my neck if I tighten it, the Active Sling not at all. Super comfortable The separators in the main stow are perfect for my daily carries (keys, flashlight, pen, knife, airpods, wallet) with room to stash unexpected items (random palm sized things my family hands me).

Materials and craft are superb. One gripe, although I love Fidlock in general the style of this one doesn't lend itself to a small pack, it takes more effort to open than I'd like. This style works well on my Boundary Supply sling which has more heft. The City Sling's Fidlock style seems better suited to this size pack.

Overall I think this is a great sling. I've taken my time to be picky about what I'd use and I've finally made the right choice with the Active Sling.

Great Day Pack!

Great day pack and fits every need I was looking for. It is compact, easy to get things out of, and above all it looks sleek regardless of how I'm wearing it!

Excellent quality

The finishing of the product is great. The magnetic closure takes a little bit of getting used to but it should work well in the long term. I like the waterproof materials and the product still look premium despite the non traditional materials used. Good for my summer holiday trips when I can keep my power bank, reading glasses and passport in a chic compact carrier.

The swiveling sling makes the bag big your boast well without being clumsy.

Almost Perfect

I’ve been using my bag for a while now andI really love it. The materials are well made and durable. I love the fid-lock system, it makes it super easy to get into the bag. It’s the perfect size for me, I know that if the bag was any bigger I would end up packing more stuff that I don’t really need. I like how slim and lightweight it is. It’s great for all my daily needs while I get around town.

Now this bag isn’t perfect. There are some things I would really like changed for future iterations. My biggest complaint is that over time there seems to be a squeaking sound that comes from the area where the straps attach to the bag. I’m not entirely sure if this is something everyone will experience or if it’s just my unit but when I move and walk around it’s fairly apparent. It’s just loud enough that if you’re walking in a quiet area you will definitely hear it. Maybe it’s from the fabric rubbing against each other or maybe the mechanism that attaches the bag to the straps somehow creates it. It can be fairly distracting. My other gripe is with whatever material is placed inside the magnetic flap. Overall it gets the job done but It’s not the most robust material and I know that if for whatever reason that flap gets bent it will very difficult to return it to its original shape. I’ve been pretty careful with the bag so I haven’t had any issues but if you’re the type of person that throws their bags around or shoves them into tight spaces, if that flap gets bent I would imagine it would be very difficult to get it back to its original form. It’s a little ironic that the bag is made from super durable material but the what is inside the flap feels like cheap/flimsy cardboard or plastic.

Overall I really like the bag and I alternate using it with my Aer City Sling 2. The Aer bag feels indestructible but it can’t beat the ease of use the active sling provides and I am not particularly rough with my bags so that’s not an issue for me. It is definitely a bag I have and will continue to recommend to people. If they fix those two issues, this bag would never leave my side.

Excellent bag

Very organized. Cool magnetic strap. The only annoying thing is that it is squeaky when walking around.

The best purchase I ever made

Previously I used a basic one compartment sling , after a long search to find the best one I could change to I found this. I immediately fell in love and after over 2 years of daily use it is still in near mint condition, would recommend to get it if you need any kind of small bag. The fact that it has all magnetic lochs is just an added bonus.

Elegant. Fast Access. Well designed.

Wonderful little sling. I was looking for something that carries my essentials without being bulky. At the same time it should look elegant. The active sling looks great and allows very quick access with the (slightly addictive) magnetic opening mechanism.

There is just the right amount of organization to be useful. I appreciate the bright interior, which makes it much easier to find my things.
Last but not least I really like the secret compartment. It is more accessible than a zipper on the backside, which is what most slings have, and very well hidden. So well that I couldn't find the hidden compartment at first when I received the sling.

After several months I still enjoy using the sling.
