KAVU Rope Bag - Sling Pack for Hiking, Camping, and Commuting

I got this because Ive loved Kavu items. The cross body portion isnt bad, works great if youre trying to stay hands free with shopping, riding a bike, etc. It works great as a shoulder bag too. The rope portion keeps it from sliding all over the place. I like the pockets and it keeps everything I need. Its even big enough to put my tablet/e-reader in! One of the bigger perks. I will definitely be getting another. The colors are cute and stylish. You will not be disappointed. November 2017. Still an awesome bag. Ive washed it a handful of times and it still has the great colors. Shows some wear on one side (body side) but thats due to daily use. Love it and will continue to purchase Kavu items!

I bought for my cruising backpack! Perfect size. Holds everything and VERY comfortable.

This beats the old diaper bag any day of the week. I grab a diaper and a pack of wipes, still have another zipper pocket for my wallet and adult items and two outter pockets one Velcro I use for my keys and one zipper which fits my IPhone Max X perfectly so any smart phone in a case should have no problem fitting . I love that the strap is wide and unobstrusive , with a buckle so even if there isn’t a place to hang your purse you can loop it around and make sure it doesn’t hit the ground. I’m constantly surprised how much I love it and the price is very reasonable.

Fast delivery for my trip to France and wow what an awesome cross over bag. I was able to pack so much into this bag for secure quick access. Book medication adapters electronics hygiene snacks travel docs change of clothes. Amazing and sturdy!

Works really well for a day outing. We packed wallets, sunscreen, bathing suits and 2 towels with a little maneuvering. Most of all, I like the way it’s designed to wear as a backpack or like a front sling for more safety. Highly recommend to use instead of a purse when doing sightseeing or activities when traveling.

I have used a small backpack as my ‘purse’ for years. I wanted a bag that I could keep tucked under my arm if necessary. The KAVU bag is perfect for me. Everting fits inside without being bulky. I am very happy with my purchase.

I love this bag! I can carry many things in it. I can stuff a clothes chg. Wallet, water bottle, and be set for a day of shopping, running errands or a trip to the city !

The bag is good quality BUT the pineapple bag is NOT a light blue color, it is actually a dark green. I kept it because it wasn’t worth sending it back, however I would have preferred the color in the picture

Worked great for carrying items while bike riding at the beach!

I really really wanted to love this bag. I bought this for an upcoming European trip where I needed to carry tourist guides, stuff for the kids, snacks and daily medication for one person in our party. I’ll start with the pros. It’s affordable. It’s cute. It has a decent amount of space and can fit an 8x11 folder. And the strap is sturdy. (I bought the one with the owl pattern). Now with the cons (and there are a few, but I really think that with improvements, this could be a great bag). This bag is worn on the right should only, which is not very ergonomic for a right handed person. When you put the bag on your shoulder, the motion is counterintuitive for a right handed person, and restricts your right should. Your could wear it on your other should but the bag would not fall flat on your bag. This is a huge con for me, as I started to get serious shoulder and rib pain one week into our trip and had to stop wearing it altogether. While the pattern is cute and the material is of reasonable quality, it is not ideal for this type of bag. This should be made of a more durable material, such as laminated canvas. It is not protected when it rains, and it gets stained easily as soon as it touches the floor (my bad was constantly sandy from the crushed stone in French parks). Lastly, I find the pockets just ok. The middle pocket with a velcro is not big enough for a cell phone (and nor would I put a phone in there- it would be prime for stealing). It does fit well in the zipped up one though. The two side pockets are of decent sizes, but not very deep and I wish they had other compartments inside, especially to put keys and wallet. I created my own wallet holder with a hiking clip. All in all, I might still use the bag every once in a while for very specific occasions where I need to have my hands free, but I suspect those uses will be few and far between.
