Eberlestock Bando Bag - Tactical Men's Fanny Pack w/Adjustable Waist Belt, Zippered Pockets, Compact Lightweight Belt Bag

I know most people are here buying this for a CCW but I bought this product with the sole purpose of carrying my action camera equipment and a few other EDC items like my wallet and battery bank while riding my not, since storage is minimum on my bike. Mind you I’m using the XL variantPros:- I ride a yzf-r6r and this a a great solution for carrying all my essentials while I’m doing mountain runs.- Plenty of room, while NOT looking excessively big on your body to the point where it’s awkward looking. extremely comfortable and easy to adjust on the fly, and my favorite part is how the straps aren’t just dangling around like most other bags.- There’s plenty of compartments so you can keep your essentials separated. Id say the bag over all is extremely well built.- I did get the all black color and I love how this bag looks as well, very sleek and a bit of a tactical look to it.Cons:- The only problem I have with this bag is I wish the zippers were higher quality like “YKK” zippers or of a sort. I’d happily pay more money for smoother and much more reliable zippers.- Not to say these zippers are bad but they seem functional with average build quality.Conclusion:- I was extremely happy with my purchase to the point where I legit went out my way to review this.- Mind you my main focus is a storage solution to carry my action camera equipment and EDC items while going fast on a motorcycle.

The pack itself solves my issues with traditional waist packs, and that is, the main pocket holds my EDC and limits what else I can put in them. The rear pocket on the bando bag holds my p365xl with an HS 507k perfectly.The velcro elastic loop can be placed anywhere in the back area to accommodate most any configuration, and expands enough to securely hold my weapon around the trigger guard. I’ve done countless practice pulls and have had zero snags.The zipper pulls and zippers work just fine, the pull loops are molded open at the top to improve ease of access. It would be nice if there was a way for the middle and front pocket zippers to be closed at either end, perhaps two zipper pulls. This would prevent accidentally grabbing the wrong loop when opening the EDC pocket.The internal pockets are nice with plenty of room for my wallet, phone, two-finger duster, keys and an elastic loop in the top flap of the middle pocket that holds my leatherman.Everything is made of high quality materials and has a premium feel/appearance without looking like a tactical attention grabber.My only complaint is the length of the waist strap, I bought the extender (also great quality) for cross body carry, but I really shouldn’t have needed to.Great EDC bag, I bought one for my son who carries a shield plus with optic. He uses it every day and is 100% satisfied.

Use this daily. Great value, I bought the regular size as well in the brown color. Great quality, fits all my things plus some. Comfortable to wear crossbody and on the waist. Very inconspicuous, I’ll most likely buy a third soon as my wife has taken my xl. The regular size fits my xmacro like a glove with an extra mad in the concealed compartment.

I bought this Eberlestock Bando Bag XL - Tactical Men's Fanny Pack for concealed carry during the hot summer weather when shorts and T shirts make it hard to carry anything anything that really suits the purpose of protection.I didn't want anything that looked tactical, and I didn't want it to stand out in a crowd. I also wanted something that would go with different casual summer clothing. I wanted something light weight and water resistant as we are subject to rain and thunderstorms just about anytime in the summer. I wanted it to be durable but not stiff. I didn't want it to be to big or bulky, but big enough for a G 19.This bag larger than I was expecting, but it's a great bag and I will use it more for hiking or walking trails in the woods or mountains, in cooler weather. It will accommodate a larger payload than needed for day to day task and errands in the summer time, but for the above mentioned purposes it will be great.It's a great looking bag and it repels at least enough exposure to rain to get from to or from the car if you happen to get caught. A G 19 fits with a lots of room to spare, even with a small light or laser mounted, with a couple of spare mags in the same compartment. I use a trigger holster/trigger guard anchored to the loop that was thoughtfully sewn into the lower left corner of the bag so I don't put anything in there except for the ccw. If you pull firmly when you draw it will disengage from the holster/guard. A Velcro elastic loop also came with the bag that you could use to hold a spare mag. The dual zipper slides allows unzipping and deployment with either hand. from either side. It has plenty of storage for a couple of mags, cell phone, wallet, small binoculars or whatever you like in the other to compartments. This will accommodate most duty or service size Semi autos easily.Hopefully the pics will put some of this in perspective. I'm glad I bought this bag even though it wasn't appropriate for my original intent. I would have bought a larger one soon anyway.

These Eberlestock Fanny packs are amazing!I went with the original size first ( which is great), but ended up buying the XL for myself and giving the smaller one to my wife. For the price, I really don't think you can beat these fanny packs. The durability is great, it's lightweight, looks stylish without screaming "tactical", and has all the pockets you would need, including the EDC one with is easy to access.The ONLY complaint i would say is that the backing material could have been a little bit more breathable. All in all, this is a great product, and well worth it.
