TLDR (explanation below!)- fraction of the size of a typical backpack- fits a 15” MacBook Air (I know some are wondering) but read below first- premium feel proportional to the greater price tag- good for daily use for specific items, not throwing random extra things in- haven't had it long, but Tomtoc products always hold up for meThis is NOT a backpack. It is 7L compared to the typical backpack size range of 20-35L. Not a knock on the product, the marketing is fully transparent about what this is. But I think people see how it looks and think it might be a good way to downsize their daily backpack, not realizing how substantially smaller it is. It’s great as a carrying case for certain specific things that you need everyday, but not something you can just toss stuff into regularly. I assume this is by intent since if we’re being honest, I’d bet a lot of Tomtoc customers are dudes looking for something that 100% isn’t a purse, but just so happens to serve the exact same function. And that it does.Fits 15” MacBook Air. I bought this only after seeing another review here confirming it fit his MacBook Air (implying 15”). I’m sure I’m not the only one who was wondering if I could get away with it, so here’s my advice: it is true, it “fits”, and I carry it in this bag everyday. I don’t have a case on it, nor could I. As you can see in photos, it really is as big as you can possibly squeeze in there, and it does put tension on the top/zipper. No sign of wear and tear or strain at all, but it’s early. Also exposes the corners to damage if the bag fell top first. Just wanted to post this as an addendum to that other review. I have no regrets, but if you want something that truly fits your 15” laptop in the typical sense and doesn’t leave it vulnerable, this isn’t it (and importantly, doesn’t claim to be).Premium Quality. I’m guessing this is considered the budget brand Alpaka, but compared to the usual Amazon stuff I can afford, this is the gold standard of quality. I’m not even sure what the true premium brands would even improve on. If you typically buy $20-40 products like this on Amazon as I do, I promise you Tomtoc is worth every single additional penny for the premium quality, appearance, and durability. I haven’t had this very long, but I’ve had other Tomtoc products with similar materials and construction and they’ve all been great.

Growing up, my dad always carried a man-purse whenever he traveled. As a kid, I found it a bit odd, but now I realize he was onto something. Fast forward to today, and I've finally embraced the concept—except this time, it's with the Tomtoc Sling Bag, and I couldn't be happier.The first thing that struck me about this sling was its incredible build quality. The materials feel sturdy yet lightweight, and the zippers glide smoothly—no snagging or struggling to open and close the compartments. The sling itself is compact, but don't let that fool you; it's impressively spacious. I'm able to fit my 13-inch MacBook Air and iPad mini with ease, alongside my daily essentials like keys, wallet, headphones, a snack, and some gum. There's even room to spare for a small notebook or an extra charger.What truly sets the Tomtoc Sling apart from other bags I've tried (including some that cost twice as much, like Nomatic) is the thoughtful design. The interior is well-organized with padded compartments to keep your devices secure, and the exterior pocket is perfect for quick access items like my phone or a boarding pass when I travel. The adjustable strap is another win—it's comfortable and stays in place, whether I'm wearing it across my chest or over my shoulder.While I’m not quite at the stage where this is my everyday carry, it’s become my go-to for days when I need to bring my laptop to the office or for a quick outing like a fantasy football draft. It’s the perfect middle ground between a full-sized backpack and a pocket-stuffing nightmare. The slim profile also makes it easy to store under a plane seat or in a crowded coffee shop without taking up too much space.One of the things I appreciate most about this sling is how it’s made my life more organized. No more digging through multiple pockets to find my keys or wallet—everything has its place, and the peace of mind that comes with that is priceless. Plus, for the quality you get at this price, it’s a steal.In short, the Tomtoc Sling Bag has exceeded my expectations in every way. Whether you're a seasoned traveler, a tech enthusiast, or just someone looking for a convenient and stylish way to carry your essentials, this bag is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended!
