Orbitkey Urban Sling Review
Low profile and soft but with a surprising amount of space. Just enough org on the main compartment, hidden back zippered pocket has some more org. Surprisingly classy in their simplicity.
More on the Orbitkey Urban Sling
What I like
- Soft and simple, but with the upgrade of a zipped spot up top for your glasses
- Big wide pocket on the back with a little organization up against your body
- Materials are surprisingly good. Big, but sleek in all black
- I can leave the zipper undone the whole time
- Stretch mesh inside gets you almost to that Bellroy feel
- Orbitkey's signature spot to attach your keys
Watch for
- The outside picks up dirt, lint and pet hair
- The strap gather: the webbing is thin and slick, slips out easily, and ends up floppy
Specs
- 4L, expandable
- 310g
- Recycled Kodra nylon front, recycled ripstop polyester rear and lining, YKK zippers
