Sling bags/ backpacks - uniqlo viral bag?

[Icedlatteplease]

Any recommendations?

Have an old back/shoulder injury that plays up when I carry anything on that side, including a backpack. Turns out I think i can carry a one strapped bag as long as it sits properly on my back and properly cross my body at the front (often carry my handbag this way).

Looking for something big enough to hold a sandwich and water bottle on a day out. Was looking at anything from a basic cheapass folding sling bag to something more stylish. I think I'd like something more stylish or funky. I wondered whether you can carry a large uniqlo bag that way and whether it might be big enough but not sure.

Ooh! You need to look at the Healthy Back Bags. I have three. They site neatly at the small of your bag ands you can fit loads in.

Small of your back!

I wondered but am not convinced by them they look odd in the pictures!!. Also Wasn't sure what size I needed.

I've got the baglett in a limited edition fabric, the small and the medium. The small is a decent size and I can fit an iPad in the medium.
You can wear it back and front and it holds a lot and works well as a crossbody.

Roka do a nice sling bag.thats more like a one strap back pack. I want to say it's called a Willesden, but don't quote me on that.

Free People do a pretty sling called the Hudson (I think, again.. don't quote me)

The trouble is the water, it's blooming heavy.. its why I carry an Osprey backpack tbh, usually on one shoulder.

It is Willesden , I have this one in chocolate brown.
I buy Kipling usually but I thought I'd try this , it;s really nice .
I don't use leather or suede so ideal for me .

I have the Uniqlo sling bag, if I put heavy things in it it does tend to swing round to hang on my hip/side rather than stay at my back or front.

Having said that if I pulled it tighter it would probably stay in place, but you’d need to put it on loose and then tighten it iyswim, which could be annoying every time.

Another recommendation for Roka. Also Fablou do a range of colours in a sling bag. Bigger than Uniqlo but still light. I wasn't impressed with the Uniqlo bag and Primark do a dupe for half the price.

Funnily enough a red rokka has caught my eye, I'm tempted to order it and see what it's like in person. Is it big enough

Going to check out fablou

Baggu medium crescent bag is a great size for a day out - holds all your usual handbag crap, water bottle and your sandwich. It's super lightweight and nice to carry.

I have a khaki green one, DD has this blue one - both lovely colours

Ohh I really like that Baggu bag- just what I need - but why did they have to put their logo all over the handle?? So annoying!
