## Description

desertcart.com: Chrome Industries Kadet Sling Messenger Bag – Crossbody Sling for Women and Men w/Quick Release Buckle – 9L, Black : Electronics

Review: Solid Bag - Pros: Built Tough, Quality Materials and Construction , Perfect size and comfortable. Cons: Buckle is secure but rattles a bit and I wish would have come with a zippered interior pocket. You have to purchase organizer separately ,I did and am currently waiting on. Overall I would definitely suggest this coming from a seasoned gearhead.
Review: Camera kit bag! - I was looking for something I could sling over my shoulder and take with me on hikes or excursions where I wanted to bring my drone (DJI Flip) and my Osmo Pocket 3 camera. Previously, I’d lug around two little camera bag type things, one for each. However, with this bag, I’m able to do all of that in one go. I keep my DJI flip, controller (RC2) and the three extra batteries in the charger thing, inside of the main compartment. In the front pocket I keep my DJI Osmo pocket 3 (inside of the grip case), the battery extension handle, a little case with various lens filters, and extra USB battery for the camera and my phone. All this gear fills up both of the pockets neatly, and perfectly. What’s better is i just leave all my gear in this bag, so when it’s time, i can just sling it over my shoulder and go. The weight is distributed nicely ( not too heavy) and I like that I won’t stand out when going to places with my gear. I just look like a regular person, but more stylish! The bag thus far has proven to be durable. While I haven’t been caught in a full on rainstorm, I have been in the rain with the bag for an extended period of time. None of the water got into the main compartments. It has made traveling with my gear so easy. I also love the buckle strap. It’s so cool. I’d say you get what you pay for with this bag. It’s great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect day bag!
*by J***. on August 30, 2025*

This has quickly become my favorite “everyday” bag. It’s the perfect size for a day bag. It can fit a full size 10” iPad. It is a little small to be able to fit full size pads or folders. Keys, phones, first aid kits, tablet or books will be right at home with room to spare. These are perfect for commuters of the two wheeled variety. I commute on my motorcycles in the warm months and this bag is perfect for that. It can hold all my daily stuff and still leave room for extra stuff as needed.
