ful Unisex Adult Peabody Sling Bag

Peabody Mini Sling Pack in Floral Pattern PinkThe first image you see of this bag makes it look like the strap is attached to the bottom right corner (looking at it face-on). Be sure to look at the other views before ordering. The strap is actually attached to the bottom LEFT corner and therefore the bag can only be worn on the right shoulder, slung over to your left side. This might work well for a lefty, but I find that, as a right-handed person, I can't get into the bag by sliding it around. I have to actually remove it completely to be able to access the pockets. My previous bag had the strap on the other corner and worked much better for me. Also, the pockets are deep, have no organizers, and little things get lost in them. The iPod pocket is a bit ridiculous: the earphone "jack" is just a hole for the wire to pass through; not helpful at all. It is well-constructed, and holds my Kindle, in a case, plus a number of other things like wallet, glasses, phone, etc. But the strap thing is so getting on my nerves that I'm going to have to buy something else and dump this.

We've purchased FUL products before and have been very satisfied, so when I read some of the poor reviews of this product, I had to really consider whether I wanted to take the risk or not.

So, let me say first, that this was what I expected. The bag I received was just fine no poor stitching, etc. The zippers are strong, the design well-considered, canvas material is thick, and the color is vibrant. Another winner from FUL.

These would be my suggestions to FUL for improving the design:

Needs small pockets (just as the description says, there are only 3 pockets). I would have liked more for SD cards, coins, etc. like their backpacks.

Would prefer to have ability to secure headphone cord to sling so the cord isn't loose between the pocket and my ears. Simple velcro would work great.

I purchased the 17 inch bag. The bag looks very nice so im glad about that. Its comfortable and the ipod pocket is a nice addition. NO laptop will fit in there. Also, there is no "elastic water bottle pouch." That was very upsetting. One of the reasons that i purchased this was to use it as a gym bag. Not a good idea... its too small. Im size 8(mens) and my sneakers barely fit. After that, only a shirt fits but no shorts. If you will use it to carry very small things then by all means purchase this bag but other than that; stay away. Also, The size is a lot smaller that what you would think(but thats my fault because the specifications are correct).

If you are getting it for that then its 3 stars. But if you will be a tourist somewhere, its a GREAT bag. I went to Euarope for 3 weeks and it worked wonderfully. Perfect for tourism. Not too small nor too big

I bought this pack for a week long stay at Disneyworld and their parks. It's the perfect size for the sunscreen, autograph books, ponchos, etc. 3 different size pockets keep things separated. (4 if you include the strap pouch where we kept the fastpasses) With the sling design, you are able to quickly bring it to the front for access without taking it off. Well made and durable.

I bought this bag solely for biking to school with an iPad and a small notebook, and it just barely didn't fit. Kind of frustrating!! But I really wish it would've because I loved the style and the comfort and the color.
