I appreciate the reviews and Alpaka’s products. I do find it really confusing with their very diverse range of minor variations of a handful of primary designs
I prefer designs of bags like Tom Bihn that don’t have the key leash sewn inside. I like it when they put in o rings and let you choose the best place for your keys.
Wish they kept the orange interior. That off-white grey is blah. And enough with the magnets. When I get in my vehicle I’m prone to taking whatever bag I’m using and just sort of throwing/lassoing it around my seat, always secure that the bag isn’t gonna go flying as the straps are fixed. I doubt magnets will hold up to that treatment. Okay rant over. Haha
The metro sling 2 is only 2.5L capacity whereas the Bellroy lite sling mini is 4L, so definitely can fit more in the bellroy (including my mirrorless camera with certain lenses)
You say the front pocket of the metro sling v2 is just a straight pocket, but thats not true! It has a second hidden pocket at the top which is lovely to hold airpods in

I agree the versatility of detachable ones are nice
I think I prefer the original. It's a shame it's discontinued. Bad timing on my part.

I agree magnets are usually unnecessary in bags and often add to the weight of them
How does the Metro Sling V2 go against Bellroy Lite Sling Mini? Can you pack the same volume? Which do you prefer?
