Aer sf day sling 121/8/2024 ![]() ![]() An added benefit of this pocket is that it has its own dimension, projecting outwards from the bag so even if the main cavity is quite full, you should still be able to comfortably utilize this pocket.Īs we get into the interior, the 3L capacity of the bag would typically make one think that it’s not terribly spacious, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much it could comfortably carry. The hardware feels sturdy enough and is totally appropriate for this bag in my opinion. Starting with the front zipper pocket which is secured behind a large YKK AquaGuard #10 zipper, you’ll find an open space with an internally attached key leash. ![]() ![]() ![]() This may or may not affect you, but it was just a small issue I faced when using the Day Sling 3 and I wanted to call it out.Īs we take a tour around the sling, let’s take a look at the kind of features Aer gives us for this modest price point. Any time I would bend forward, the sling would instantly slide around to my front, which I found to be rather annoying. One slight drawback to the VX42 material used in my example is that I found it was quite slippery with most of my clothing, unless I was wearing something with a bit of texture. My version uses the VX42 and also features a rich orange nylon ripstop liner which adds character and also makes it very easy to spot everything inside the bag. The Day Sling 3 is available in three distinct material options, 1680D Cordura® Ballistic Nylon, 700D Cordura, and VX42 X-Pac from Dimension Polyant, and all versions feature YKK zippers and a Fidlock buckle on the strap. Aer does offer a lifetime warranty on their products so if an issue were to arise as a result of a defect in their manufacturing they will take care of it. The stitching is all straight and evenly spaced, with no obvious flaws, and furthermore, none have developed during months of use. If you’ve chosen the VX version over the ballistic or 700D Cordura you’ll find that the interior is lined with a vibrant orange ripstop nylon which makes it easy to spot anything inside of the sling.Įvery Aer bag I’ve used has exhibited a consistent level of quality in its construction and the Day Sling 3 has shown no signs of deviation from those prior experiences. The look is sleek, modern, and not overly flashy on the outside, and that’s what I appreciate about it. The Day Sling 3 in particular has refined its shape quite a bit from the original design. This sleek look is something they’ve been honing from the start and each generation refines it further. From my perspective, Aer products have a distinctly technical look to them they employ lines in their bags that give off a slightly futuristic vibe. When talking about aesthetics, we must always remember that it is a deeply personal matter, and you may or may not agree with my opinion, which is just fine. The wide-yet-short profile allows the bag to sit very naturally on your chest or back (depending on your preference) and the shape also affords ambidextrous access, meaning if you favor left or right shoulder carry this will suit both options. The silhouette should look familiar to those who recall the past two revisions, but Aer has introduced some clever patterning changes to allow this small form factor bag to carry much more than you’d expect. The Day Sling 3 is one of a few small sling options from Aer. ![]()
