FAM Upgrade Fanny Deployment Bag Tactical Waist Pack Small Sling Pack Hand Carry Bag Handlebar Bag -Tan

Wanted this to store my gun range safety equipment in one spot. Was able to fit 3 Howard Leight noise cancelling headphones (one in the end pocket, two in the main compartment. 5 safety glasses in the side pocket handful of chamber flags and winter shooting gloves plus batteries and foam ear plugs. Stitching looks good. Has two straps and buckles over the top to secure everything together. I took the shoulder strap off. Minor comment is color is a little off. We will see if it holds up.Update. Since my last review every single zipper on this has failed. Not one zipper....each and every zipper failed.

works great as a butt pack. (or rearward-up glutimus maximus tactical modular apparatus) I have it on the lowest rearward portion of my LBE and fits everything I need, while staying low enough to allow clearance for my back pack. everything feels nice and sturdy for now. I put my gear through abusive situations. ( I call it names while shoving it so full of stuff you can hear the material weep for mercy ). thankfully though, this "fanny pack" is the only recipient of my sociopathic torture. I will update if needed. (if it breaks... without my help...)

I've been testing this bag in lieu of a backpack on mountain bike rides - It's been working great! It carries a hydration bladder (with some persuasion), my keys and wallet, and various trailside repair tools. However, on literally the third ride with it, one of the straps is already halfway ripped off.I expected this, and it's still a good bag! If I need to buy a bag for whatever reason, I usually go for the cheap ones on Amazon. They usually have similar materials and designs to bags that are double or triple the prices. I do know, that while they may look identical, I'm getting something that's probably going to fall apart when any amount of stress is placed on it.If you're planning on not stuffing this bag with heavy things and bouncing it around violently, you'll probably be fine and it won't start falling apart. However, if you plan to use this bag for outdoor recreation - Invest in an awl.I'm now going to pivot this review into an advertisement for sewing awls. If you're like me and like cheaping out on bags, you're going to want to invest in a sewing awl. You do NOT need to know how to sew and you do NOT need to be crafty to use one! The most popular one is the Speedy Stitcher but there are tons of others. If you take 5 minutes to learn how to use it (Youtube), you can repair and strengthen seams and straps that are falling apart. Inevitably, you're going to cheap out on a bag, have a strap start falling off, and then either ask for a replacement, or throw it away and never buy a cheap bag again. Either way - what a waste of a bag! With an awl, you can instead take a few minutes to stitch some super durable thread to repair that strap, and end up using that bag for years.

As far as a bag that can be used in many ways it's pretty good. There are some things that could have made it much better. The snaps for the MOLLE straps are very weak and will come unsnapped with very little force...bad thing. The side release buckles are not tan plastic, but black plastic and when they are connected you can't access the zippered pouch on the front. The bag comes with a waist/shoulder strap that uses the same weak snaps but luckily there is a velcro backup which helps. The plastic tri-glide buckles are very thin (weak and potential for breakage) and once again...black plastic instead of color coordinated. This bag is more of a tacticool fanny/belly bag than anything that I could attach to my 511 Tactical RUSH 12 backpack. Zipper pulls are metal and very large and jingly.I'd say I experienced some buyers remorse on this one but will keep it anyway due to the expense of return shipping. I'll find a use for it somewhere.

Absolutely love this bag! I usually carry alot of stuff in my pockets and normally have to wear cargo pants with a really good belt to carry it all, so I was trying to find something like a book bag, but not a book bag, something smaller that would hold all the stuff I normally carry and then some because I was tired of digging through my pockets to find an item which sometimes took a minute or two to rifle through it all and find what I was looking for and needed a solution bad... So i did a search for tactical bags because I like tactical and military stuff and just being prepared in genera,l and came across this bag and decided to get it because it was only $15 and well regardless if I was going to carry it everyday or not $15 it's not a bad price even if I decided not to use it all the time and I could have used it for tools or something of that nature but I'll tell you for 15 bucks you get one hell of a bag! I was skeptical at first because I thought maybe it would look like a purse or something but really it's pretty damn cool looking and I doubt people are looking at it like a man purse or anything like that...I've had a couple of guys already tell me they love this bag so it's definitely not something to be embarrassed of. Its super handy and definitely well made, and I use this bag all day everyday to carry all my gear in that I usually have in my pockets and I'm glad to say my pants aren't falling down now because of all the weight I usually have in the pockets LOLand I probably won't break another belt for a while either. But I would highly highly recommend this bag to anyone who likes to carry a lot of stuff or someone who just like to leave the house prepared for anything... Its a definite five star product and I would definitely recommend this to anybody!
