This bag looks amazing. I think I may have to get me one. Ever since you convinced me (through your videos) to get the Loculus, I've been kinda obsessed with X-pac. It's a great material all around, and I love the fact that it is almost always accompanied by a very high contrast interior. Since using and loving the Loculus. I've also bought and been using the Alpaka Tech Case in Slate Grey X-pac. Although the strap and strap attachment points need alot of work before I'd call them good, everything else about it (besides no key lanyard 😒) is awesome. I did actually find a way for the strap to work for me though. I just added a metal ring ( like the one you put keys on) on each attachment point, and used a very nice thick strap that came with a Tomtoc duffle bag I have. Now, I like the Alpaka as much as my Loculus. ( well... almost as much. And that says alo). I was wondering, if you think this Tomtoc Xpac sling is good enough for me to want to use on some days, even though i have these other two great slings? Or if its below these two enough, where it'd be like buying an android tablet when you already have an ipad? *EDIT: oh and I forgot to mention, I think the "7 Modules" line, was referring to the 7 things you can customize with this custom bag. lol. but I def understand the confusion when you see it during filming. (I image it has to be rough to think straight when filming and talking and all that)
Ohhhhhh! You’re probably right about the modules! Honestly no, don’t get this if you already have the XPAC loculus. Same little niche really. If you love that one keep it and rock it. If I had to pick one of these two it would be the loculus. This is smaller of course but not so much smaller that it isn’t the same niche for me
@@ThePerfectBagthank you! You prob just saved me $120.00 lol I have been messing with the custom builder from tontoc, and it's pretty awesome (probably could even say the future..?) Only, as of right now, it does feel like you need to compromise on colors sometimes. Don't get me wrong, it's impressive what they have now. Just wish I could add a few more (especially to the xpac selection lol). Have you seen the custom build backpack on the site? Imagine that being X-Pac! 👀
I think the outer part looks absolutely fantastic colors fabric so on and so forth but it's the inside that needs work I have a vanquest that I love to death and that stupid little insert divider flat thing isn't worth blankety blank blank blank okay I ended up cutting it out so they need to work on like zipper pockets on the inside or possibly some hook and loop that would really take it over the top that is the tie that binds but that being the absolute perfect, did I mention perfect, bag❤❤❤
Radio silence. I imagine it’s taking a full year to gather the parts from all over the world and assemble them with a team of specialists deep in an underground bag building facility.
I ordered a tomtoc xpac small sling from their website, a week later no sling, and the tracking number from amazon logistics says it was "lost" and I should contact the seller. Emailed tomtoc three days ago and no response. If they don't respond soon I'll have to do a stop payment on the old credit card.
My past shopping experiences with tomtoc have all been pleasant. Some logistics issues were resolved properly after contacting customer service. Check your inbox and spam folder, maybe their response is buried in your other emails. Good luck!!
I just got a reply to my support request about it in my email. I believe they will attempt to re-send another one. I ordered from their website, but it was shipped through amazon logistics, looks like it got to an distribution facility outside my city and just disappeared, so it really was more a carrier issue than a Tomtoc issue. Maybe my support email response took awhile cause of the long holiday weekend. Well hopefully I'll have that xpac tomtoc sling in my hands soon. I'd love to do a custom, but the price difference between that an the $42 black friday sale version is too big lol.
That’s an old toy from Australia called a “puggle” - it was a beanie baby before beanie babies existed. www.puggle.com/product/vintage-puggle-in-a-bag/
I LOVE it! The Fidlock V Buckle is the icing on the cake!!!!! We need to see more of them!
I love that bright blue interior!
Looks so good! Refreshing cool color to see when you open the bag! I always thought baby blue would be an awesome color for bag interiors
BOOM! What's up Clint… I would've gone with a different colour choice but it's still pretty cool
What’s up!!!

Really a gorgeous bag, nice job. That color really makes you stick out though.
I wish they would do this for the larger slings. If they did I would buy one in a hurry.
Me too!
Let's go!!!!!
Looks like it was tailor made to go in your TBB x Huckberry Conceal ❤

Great video! I'm planning on customizing one as well but with the locks I'm between thr fidlock V shape or sliding which would be more secure?
I would steer away from the V-Shape as I always feel that buckle pressing up against me. I'd go regular duraflex or slider.
@@ThePerfectBag Sweet thanks will do!
What do you think is better? The TomToc Sling or an Alpaka Go Sling Mini? I have a Go Sling Mini but not sure if I should purchase the TomToc Sling.
I personally like the tomtoc a little better - it doesn’t feel as tight
Is it possible to change the interior color from blue to something else? I'm a big fan of warmer colors like orange, yellows, and browns.
Yes - I believe they had multiple options available on the customizer.
How does this compare to the Kargo Loculus? I would probably liked a all white x-pac tomtoc😄
I prefer the Loculus, but this is a simpler and slightly smaller bag which would appeal to a lot of folks
@@ThePerfectBag yeah, I wonder if the loculus look good if the back panel were also made of x-pac (entirely white)
Your bag look gorgeous! Is the front zipper also Aquaguard zipper?
Nope not the front - it’s a covered zipper (hidden) not aquaguard
Love it!!!!
This is awesome!
Glad you liked it!
Looks awesome! Any word on your other custom built bag?
Radio silence. I imagine it’s taking a full year to gather the parts from all over the world and assemble them with a team of specialists deep in an underground bag building facility.
@@ThePerfectBag 🤣 🎒 👍
@@ThePerfectBag They have the technology, they can build it.
@@ThePerfectBag Don’t forget the gnomes and elves they need to employ!
Hmmm, i would really like to see how an all white xpac version would look 😍
You can customize one online on the tomtoc website

Well that’s a bummer! Usually Amazon is a pretty safe bet! Hope it shows up for you!

Hey man, ever gonna review one of the a19 bags?
Yes, indeed. I’ve done a couple. And I will do more. Let me drop the links for you.

Can you share what phone case you have?
That’s a live edge case from Carved
Not enough to make me get rid of my original black tomtoc sling
Agreed.
