Eddie Bauer Stowaway Packable Sling Bag | Travel | Outdoor | Lightweight | Compact | EDC | Ripstop Nylon | 10L

I feel that 10L advertised capacity is a serious push: as you can see 1 gallon (4.5L) bottle barely fits. The phone sling-pouch is also too small for most big new phones. Saying this, the quality is very good and is overall very light, making it very practical as every day carry. While it was too small for me, my wife finds it perfect.

Love love love this bag!!! This is the second color I’ve purchased it in and am likely getting more. It is the PERFECT sporty sling bag. Holds your iPhone upfront, and all your belongings in the back. Carries a normal size water bottle comfortably and has a lot of pockets for everything else. I love the internal lanyard to clip my keys onto as well. Eddie Bauer always thinks of these tiny details and includes them in their products. I am a huge fan! This stowaway bag is part of an entire line of bags if you want the whole set for traveling. There are two larger backpacks, a duffel, and a tote. Highly recommend!

This is a newer version of an old favorite of mine. I purchased this version in the hoped they improved the ability to carry a water bottle, and they did. The mesh external pocket fits small bottles much better than the older one. It packs up small to fit in luggage, and can be unpacked quickly when you just need a smaller bag for quick trips. It provides two main pockets for organization, and just enough space for a raincoat and some spare chargers when exploring. Might be able to fit a smaller tablet in, but space would be getting tight at that point. The build quality of the bag has been excellent, zero issues with durability of any kind. If I ever manage to wear this out, I will likely instantly buy another one. Well worth the price.

So handy for travel — it packs up into itself and tucks away easily in a larger backpack. Plenty of internal storage as a day pack. It is super comfortable and is light weight and secure. The strap pouch is very handy too. Super bag to use when city touring.

Extremely lightweight and compact. The material seems sturdy enough for general use. I do believe that this item might be a little overpriced but I will be keeping it. My favorite thing about it is that it is so compact, folding into a neat little packet that is easy to pack for travel or store away. The outer pockets are sufficient. Firstly, the top pocket, which the bag folds into when being stowed, is nice and deep and will accommodate several items such as, for example, one or two small snacks, a good sized power bank, or even a small notebook. The vertical front zipper is perfect for small items that need to be accessible on the go, for example, keys (when bag is positioned/worn at the front). The phone pocket on the lightly padded partly detachable, crossbody strap is well situated and useful. My iPhone 15 plus barely fits with the case on (my case is bulky). It would be a better fit without my case or with a less bulky one. The bag has one inner pocket (open), perfect for a mid sized tablet or notebook, and a side pocket that will easily accommodate a 500ml bottle of water. I also appreciate that the crossbody strap can be detached and repositioned on the lower end, from left to right as the wearer sees fit. Apart from the strap, the back of the bag is also lightly padded and lined with a breathable broad mesh fabric. Finally, after dumping water on the bag myself, I can confirm that this bag is indeed water repellent, which makes it perfect for outdoor excursions involving water/rain. This is my favorite aspect of the product. Light splashes of water runs right off like rain on a dasheen bush leaf (google it if you don’t catch my meaning).
