KAVU Original Rope Sling Pack with Adjustable Rope Shoulder Strap

Perfect bag. My gf loved it

I paid $69 for this bag, only to get it and it has a $50 sales tag on it.

Ive had this for about a month now and I absolutely love it!:)

I steer away from backpacks because some of them rub my armpits but I took this bag to Utah and went on day hikes and loves it! There was no rubbing and very comfortable. The price was good compared to other stores. The bag was also perfect size. I could fit snacks, water and my wallet and phone in it with no problem. If you haven’t tried a kavu you should!

There are two annoying things about this item that I want to share for people (especially for moms) looking to buy this. First, the strap ribbon constantly comes unfurled. Kavu put an elastic band to keep it in place, but this fails on the reg so I’m trying to hold hands in the parking lot and this long strap starts hitting my legs. If I try to switch the pack to the front while I shop, the long strap then hangs between my legs while walking. Very annoying to tediously curl the ribbon back up and secure in place while trying to shop and hold hands. Secondly, the sling function is not as functional as I’d like. When paying for items I slip it around to access my wallet, and on many occasions I can’t maneuver my hands to reach the zipper. It’s hard to explain. I know these are picky complaints, but this was my first shot at a sling bag and for me it’s a big miss. Two stars because it is waterproof, well made, and cute imo. Functionality could use some tweaking.

I received this in a timely manner. I have not opened it as its a birthday gift for son, after Christmas. I can let you know about quality etc when he receives the gift. As far as shipping etc. it was great

Tons of space. Very durable

A great bag for traveling & casual walking!

I love this bag. Its not perfect. But the important parts are 1. Its cute. 2. I can do anything I want with my free hands. Free solo rock climbing, sword fighting, superhero vigilante-ing, unicycling while juggling, None of those things! But the point is I COULD because of this bag. And who knows? I might now that Im not encumbered with a regular purse designed by the patriarchy to keep women from fighting crime and unicycling. But seriously I have kids and one is a toddler. I need three hands, really. Theres a lot to love and some thing I would change if I had a hand in designing it, but overall its a keeper. Pros: 1.LOOK at all the useless crap I can fit in this bag. And I never have trouble finding any of it, because its packed flat, so nothing falls to the bottom. Even with all this stuff in here I could have probably added a hoodie an still had room. Its Like Im Mary Poppins, yall! 2. Hands-free as stated 3. Its bottom heavy so I can bend over without it falling down and smacking me in the back of my head. 4. It zips easily no matter how full I stuff it. And it opens almost completely so I can access larger items easily too. 5. The print on this bag might as well have been designed for me. And there are only 60,000 designs to choose from, so every person can have the most perfect bag for them. Cons: 1. There is no water bottle holder, and if I had gone with the Paxton rope bag, the placement of the water bottle holder would be at the bottom and upside down when you swing it around to the front. Sure, I dont always have a water bottle with me, but when I do, Id like a place to put it so I can remain hands free, preferably not in the bag with stuff I dont want to spill my water all over. At that point, a water bottle holder does become imperative. All bags should have them. 2. The rope is not rough, per sé, but its not soft. After several hours in the hot sun over the course of a few days, on bare skin, my shoulder has been getting a bit of a rope burn feel to it. Ill be getting a shoulder pad for it. 3. The placement of the bulky center pockets means when I swing it around to the front to access my useless junk, the secondary pocket is blocked from view. I have gotten pretty good at finding whatever I need by feeling for it, and like I said, everything remains exactly where I left it. Theres a learning curve for finding my stuff, but there didnt need to be in the first place. 4. Theres no grab handle. Makes it hard to hang it up at home or grab it from the back or the passenger seat of the car. Yeah I just hang it and grab it by the strap, but trust me, its just not as functional a it could be.

Great for college students.....
