AXIO Slingpack Review

It’s obvious that Axio really thinks about the design of their bags, but even more so with the Slingpack. The pockets and carrying straps bring a lot of functionality to the bag and yet it still fits within Axio’s sleek overall design. It’s Axio’s attention to fine details that makes their bags stand apart from the crowd - and the Slingpack is no exception.

Axio sent us three bags - Slingpack, Hybrid, and Messenger. All three bags are black, lined with a vibrant red and constructed with this incredibly durable and easy to clean 900D polyester. The Slingpack has two outside pockets sewn along the seams to maintain a sleek overall appearance, and the zippers are topped-off with chrome pulls. There’s an MP3 player pouch embedded in the shoulder strap with an audio port for your headphones.

The adjustable shoulder strap is dedicated to the left shoulder. At first I would find myself “thinking” rather than “slinging” because it’s a natural tendency to grab things with my right hand. After a few days of use, the hesitancy began to fade, and the bag and I became one. I didn’t use the lower strap but it’s there if you want to secure the Slingpack across your body. The backside lends itself to a padded panel constructed of a breathable type mesh which is a godsend in Australia, where temps reach 40-plus-degrees in the summer months.

Inside there are three large zipper and Velcro-closure pockets, a large padded laptop compartment and additional open-face pockets for pens, and small gadgets. Your computer is surrounded by padding (not only within the laptop chamber), as the entire bag has a thick layer of padding on all six sides.

Honestly, this is one of the best slings on the market. With all the thought, unique design and quality materials, Axio has the nerve to offer this bag at a sweet price point of only AUD$119.95. It’s one of those bags you reach for on the shelf and the moment you touch it you think, “I bet they’re charging an arm and a leg for this…”, but then you flip over the price tag and… Shhhhh! Don’t tell Axio, it might be a mistake!
