    I like Eric's reviews. He doesn't have that "UA-cam" voice and keeps it real. Well done :)

    Just got one. Fits lovely on my back (like getting a hug) and not bad over my belly when in front. Fits my OM-5 camera with 12-45 zoom easily with space for a water bottle on top and some space left over. Feels great too.

    I was torn too. I thought the Largo was going to be way too big for me - 5'6" and 130lbs, 17' torso (ex: the Evergoods 3.5L Mountain Hip Pack is, sadly, too wide for my back as a sling and too broad/big to wear on my waist ). It took me months to pull the trigger. Love it. It molds to the body. Soft. Love the buckle. Fan of the bright interior. Very comfortable. I've never had trouble with dust or dirt (and I live in NYC)...Believe it or not, that little piece of webbing matters to me as a place for a key leash. Funny, in front of you, on the table, it looks huge...I do wear mine on my back. If I need more room, I move up to the Trakke Bairn (which I had to get at a special time to get the Cobra buckles. I love it. It's a tad heavy to start with but I fill it to the brim. I avoid electronics because it doesn't have a raised bottom/padding in the back). I agree, I would like to see a different material for the strap (padding?). But it's super sturdy and matches their aesthetic and clean lines. Very well made.

    I like these longer form videos where you share all the little things you've noticed, good and bad. Whatever doesn't matter to me, might be important to another viewer. With how expensive International shipping rstes and import taxes are, these videos make better sure that the products I buy, are actually the one I want.

    Nice review, well shot and presented.
    I have three Trakke items including the Banana, which is a minimalist sling. The Largo is too big for me as a sling, I’d be using their Bannoch or a GR Bullet instead.

    The package is still on its way from Scotland but just bought this in the olive color way and I'm really excited. I already have Trakke's Bannoch, Banana and Kelso and honestly this brand is quickly becoming one of my favorites ever. Every piece of material seems top notch and you just wanna touch the bags for a while before actually using them. I'm almost sure this sling won't be the exception but let's see how it works for me as an EDC bag. I'll give some feedback in a few weeks that I already have a real impression from real user experience and not just out of the excitement it will obviously produce me straight out of the box... or bag in Trakke's case. haha. Love these reviews, so thorough and clear. Helped me make the decision. Peace.

      @@PackHacker2 The one I've used the most for practical reasons is the Banana sling and I absolutely love it, so simple yet so efficient, it blends in with anything and just feels sturdy. Then the Bannoch, I just wanna use this bag all the time but it's still kinda clean and feels new and I kinda wanna keep it that way as long as I can but it's a delight to use except on hot days since there's no ventilation whatsoever, then.I choose a more sporty kind of bag. The Kelso I only use when I want something more elegant and it's perfect for that. Let's see how the Largo and Arkaig fit my collection. Really excited.

      Ok, so now that I have my Largo with me and I've been using it for a few days in my normal EDC way I can sat that it's just a great sling. As you said it might feel a bit big for what it can fit but honestly the construction is so sturdy and well built that I feel all my stuff is safe, so I don't mind at all. The zippers work great and the orange liner is amazing. Haven't used it for more than an hour straight but it has been very comfortable to wear and it's just a beautiful bag. The straps are made to last and using the cobra buckle is just a pleasure, when I just received it I spent like an hour just playing with the buckle and it gave me joy to hear the click and unclick (if that's even a word) of the buckle. I have many slings but tbh this is the better built one I have, when it's too hot outside I'm not so sure this would be my choice but for that case I have a Full Moon by Mystery Ranch which can fit almost the same amount of gear (with less organization though) and has a breathable back panel. I love having options but i'm sure this thing will stand the test of time and will be one of my top choices as long as it's usable. Thanks again for the review.

    The bag is great but the strap is slightly too short over big jackets (I’m a 5’11” male), and the stabilising strap is poorly thought out & executed. Although not really an issue but a less bulky, fixed AustriaAlpin Cobra buckle could be used.

    This is the perfect size to fit a 12 pack dozen eggs in a carton. I need a pack that I can have easy access to my hard boiled eggs so I can munch on them while I walk to work. Bonus is that the crumbs fall right back into the bag and I just make sure to vacuum the bag out once a week; or the bag gets odorey
