  • It’s been a year since my wife gifted me this bag. It’s travelled hundreds of miles and been on tons of outings with my family. After a year, here is my review.
    TLDR: For the price, the Chasqui is an excellent choice. The designers threw every idea they had at this thing. Some stuff works and some stuff just fades into the background. Still, this sling is a delight to use.

    Thanks for the excellent review. Just bought this to use as a day pack for an upcoming month long trip to Sicily. Excited to start using it!

      Nice! I took mine to use as a pack to carry my daughter’s stuff while in Italy. Worked great! I hope it works well for you. Please let me know how it goes. Enjoy Sicily!

    Good review, I just ordered one 😊. I like that the inside color is yellow and not black.

      If you like color, Cotopaxi is your brand! Glad I could help! I hope you find it to be as useful and easy to use as I did.

    Thank you for this review! I've been eyeing this sling for a few months now and after watching this I am definitely getting one! Would you mind sharing the specific strap keeper you're using?

    Being able to swing it around for access while wearing it is nice. Cotopaxi should feature that on their website review. What are the names of the strap keepers you use?

    • @ofthetraveler
      @ofthetraveler  Рік тому +2

      Hey DK! They're the Tom Bihn Strap Keepers: www.tombihn.com/products/strap-keepers?variant=30113306640447
      Cotopaxi, unfortunately doesn't do a great job of showcasing their stuff on their site. In fact, I've noticed so many bag makers who don't do a good job with this, even some of my favorites. I guess it gives enthusiast like me some space to show them off :)

    Hey, I am trying to see if I could fit my 15" laptop in there, the laptop pocket is probably too small but thinking it could maybe fit in the main shell space. Would you be able to give me the inside measurement, please?
    My laptop size => W: 359.1 mm (14.14 in.) , depth: 236.25 mm (9.30 in.) height: 14.99 mm (0.59 in.) . thanks

    How’s the comfort of the sling while wearing it in front?

    • @ofthetraveler
      @ofthetraveler  Рік тому +1

      Hey! It’s okay in short stints, I feel like although comfortable, it looks a bit too big for front carry. To me, it felt weird wearing that way - I only did when I was in a crowded place, or on a ride at Disney.

    With stuff in it does it sit up on its own?

    • @ofthetraveler
      @ofthetraveler  Рік тому

      It can, depending on what’s at the bottom of the bag. When I put my kid’s little lunchbox in there, it stands on its own.

    What about Water bottle pocket ?

    • @ofthetraveler
      @ofthetraveler  Рік тому

      Unfortunately no, no dedicated bottle pocket. I wish there was, though. Lately, with the way I use it, I put my kid’s lunch box to one side and her water bottle nestled up against it. No issues so far.
