baggallini Women's Medium Crossbody Sling Backpack

Disappointed that the expandable side zip compartment is not large enough to hold a water bottle, plastic or otherwise. This was the main purpose of my purchase. Also, no hidden phone compartment as stated in description.

Description says Sling has a grab & go pocket for a phone; it does not. Every compartment in the Sling has a zipper. Other Baggallini bags that say they have a grab & go pocket have a somewhat hidden pocket on the outside of the bag & that pocket does not have a zipper. Please be honest in the description of the features, the current description for the Sling is very misleading.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needed a sling. This medium sling is sized perfectly and having side-entry access is what tops it for functionality.

I have other Baggallini bags that list a Grab and go phone pocket in the description, as does the Sling. Received the Sling & couldn't find the Grab and go phone pocket. Thought maybe I was overlooking it so I called Baggallini. The gentleman I spoke w/told me to unzip the bag to open it, go to the zippered inside pocket, unzip it, & that's what's considered the Grab and go phone pocket. While it's nice to have zippered compartments, having to open the bag & unzip an inside compartment, doesn't seem to qualify as a Grab and go phone pocket. Please either change the description of the features of the Sling or add a true Grab and go phone pocket. I plan to keep the bag as it still serves its purpose but am very disappointed it doesn't have a Grab and go phone pocket as described.

So excited to take this on my next cruise. Has all the features i was looking for.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect for daily run around errand bag. Lots of pockets and hidden pockets for security. Love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am enjoying the capacity of the sling, and getting used to it for a trip to Europe. I am quite sure I can reduce what's in there by using the credit card slots. My large size phone fits just fine.

I’ve had this bad for a little over a year and travel very regularly, and this crossbody bag has quickly turned into my FAVORITE travel bag. It can easily fit my regular sized iPad or my DLSR camera and a water bottle with room to spare so carrying it while walking around cities is perfect! I get compliments on it all the time and couldn’t recommend it enough!

Unlike some of the more pocket pet purses, this one fits snug to body OR over the shoulder. Holds essentials for travel and necessities for every day. Keeps valuables close and tucked away but handy. RFID secure too. Bought it for international travel but it's going to be my everyday bag!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for an everyday carry but it is more of a day trip bag. I love it but it is a bit smaller than I thought it would be. Still a great purchase!

I have been using this sling for a few weeks. It holds all my needs..The only thing I don't like is that it looks like grease marks on it that I cannot get off..I have been careful with it..Don't know how the marks appeared......

Can't wait to take this to Europe! Comfortable straps, like another reviewer said, versatile in how you can carry it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new sling! It's perfect for a weekend pack and I especially love the inside zipper to slide my phone into plus it stands up by itself when you set it down.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the bag but have to turn it sideways to access. Baggallini is great product. This one is ok.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bag has just what I need. Several ways to hold it, on your wrist, over your shoulder and over your arm. Like a backpack or across your abdomen for extra security. It cleans easily with a damp cloth. It has a place for everything!. I highly recommend it.

I cannot express enough praise ...this is the absolute best!! It's easy to carry and my belongings don't get lost. I certainly plan on buying another color

This sling — the first of this style I have ever purchased — exceeded all my expectations. I was convinced it wouldn’t hold everything I needed daily (it does!); I was sure it would weigh me down (it doesn’t!); I thought the material would be inferior (it is of the highest quality!). I love the midnight floral print, too. I want another color!

I am a dog walker and I can use this bag for work and also keep my wallet & keys safe. It has great storage and many different zippered pockets!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect size for beach life! Easy to wipe off and I image wash and no worries if it gets wet. Love it and I hate sling bags.

It's absolutely perfect. The front zipper is perfect got my keys, a pen and purell. The compartment in the back is perfect for my phone and more the main compartment holds my assorted necessities and I keep my sunglasses in the compartment on the side. I have many baggallinis and this is the best one. The wide shoulder strap is super comfortable too
