The WANDRD ROGUE promises to be a do-it-all camera sling, but with a claim like this, I can\u2019t help but wonder how it really holds up in real life?<\/p>\n<p>I live a relatively diverse lifestyle and find myself traveling with my camera to a variety of different destinations for a variety of occasions.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes I\u2019m on the job shooting for events or individuals, other times I\u2019m hiking through the desert. But most of the time I\u2019m begrudgingly packing my laptop to go sit in a caf\u00e9 to catch up on work. I\u2019ve tried several do-it-all bags and, over the years, I believe I\u2019ve developed a certain level of discernment for what works and what doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>For this WANDRD ROGUE sling review, I really put this 9 liter sling bag to the test carrying my camera, laptop, and more, every day. I\u2019ll run you through the pros and cons and help you decide if it\u2019s worth buying.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"block_review_item_new in_table_of_contents\" id=\"wandrd-rogue-9l-sling\">\n<div class=\"text pro_con\">\n<div class=\"pro_con_item\">\n<p>Pros<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Very versatile for both camera and everyday carry<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>Made with strong durable material<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>Comes with well-organized, thoughtful features<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>The sling allows for easy access to your gear<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>Nicely padded shoulder strap<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>Sleek and stylish aesthetic<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>Includes integrated laptop carrier<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<div class=\"pro_con_item\">\n<p>Cons<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Comfort isn\u2019t great for longer periods<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>It struggles to hold all of my daily necessities as it claims<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s hard to get the weight distributed well<br \/>&#13;<\/li>\n<li>With a laptop in the sleeve, it throws off weight distribution pretty drastically<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"prod_spec\">\n<p>Product Specs:<\/p>\n<div class=\"spec_table\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Table\"><meta itemprop=\"about\" content=\"WANDRD ROGUE 9L Sling Review: Hype or Worth it? specs:\"\/><\/p>\n<table cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\" class=\"fund_table\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Capacity<\/td>\n<td>9L<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dimensions<\/td>\n<td>7.75 H X 13&#8243; W X 5&#8243;D<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Weight<\/td>\n<td>1.74 lbs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Materials<\/td>\n<td>Ballistic Nylon<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"section_3\" class=\"block_textarea_single white text in_table_of_contents \">\n<h2 class=\"entry-h2\" id=\"wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-first-impressions\">WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling First Impressions <\/h2>\n<p><picture><source data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-800x534.jpg 800w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-768x512.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-1200x800.webp 1200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-1536x1024.webp 1536w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-600x400.webp 600w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-500x333.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-800x534.jpg\" height=\"534\" width=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-800x534.jpg 800w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-768x512.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-1200x800.webp 1200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-1536x1024.webp 1536w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-600x400.webp 600w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg-500x333.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-first-impressions-jpg.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-58416 size-medium sp-no-webp\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogure 9L Sling First Impressions\"\/><\/noscript> <\/source><\/picture><\/p>\n<p>The ROGUE Sling (previously called the ROAM sling) is designed to serve as a stylish camera bag that doubles as an everyday bag and can hold all of your daily necessities or camera gear for shooting on the go. I was more than willing to put that to the test.<\/p>\n<p>When I first got this sling, the first thing that stood out to me was the burly materials. For something that\u2019s designed mainly for urban use, this thing feels really tough and well-made thanks to the thick water-resistant fabrics, oversized zippers, and ample padding. I definitely didn\u2019t feel afraid of it wearing out quickly.<\/p>\n<p>I immediately tested it out packing some camera gear to see what it could carry. It fits a camera body and 1-2 lenses comfortably and the fact that it\u2019s a sling allows easy access to all of your gear. If you need much more camera equipment than that, you\u2019ll probably be better off with a bigger camera backpack.<\/p>\n<p>There are a lot of straps, buckles, and adjustments with this sling (I mean, A LOT). They have a 5-point adjustment system that\u2019s supposed to help you get the perfect fit with the shoulder strap, but I found it a bit complicated at first. It got easier once I got everything dialed in, but know that there\u2019s a bit of a learning curve (and don\u2019t be afraid to experiment).<\/p>\n<p>I also instantly loved the array of pockets and compartments for keeping everything organized.<\/p>\n<p>All-in-all, it seemed like a well-built, well-designed bag, and I was excited to try it out in the field.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"section_4\" class=\"block_textarea_single white text in_table_of_contents \">\n<h2 class=\"entry-h2\" id=\"wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-pros-and-cons\">WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Pros and Cons <\/h2>\n<p>Though this sling bag has become my go-to bag for many occasions, it certainly has its limits.<\/p>\n<p>First off, 9 liters isn\u2019t very much space. You definitely can\u2019t carry a day\u2019s worth of supplies in this bag.<\/p>\n<p>I also had a hard time getting it comfortable if I was carrying it more than an hour or two (though that may just be a limitation of a sling design in general.<\/p>\n<p>That said, there\u2019s also a lot to love. The shoulder strap has generous padding, it\u2019s protective for camera gear, and it even has an option for laptop carry. That\u2019s something you don\u2019t typically get with camera bags like this.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"section_5\" class=\"block_textarea_single white text in_table_of_contents \">\n<h2 class=\"entry-h2\" id=\"who-is-wandrd\">Who Is WANDRD? <\/h2>\n<p>The ROGUE 9L Sling was created by WANDRD, a family-owned, crowd-funded company \u201cthat exists to inspire people to get out and live passionate lives; exploring, creating and living life in the moment.\u201d They make a variety of different bags catered to the traveling content creator.<\/p>\n<p>WANDRD is a tight-knit team of 11 people who have distributed bags to over 100 countries worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>Their goal was to make both a stylish and functional camera bag that is compatible with their adventurous lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>Their intent is not to sell bags but to inspire others to see more of the world, hence their name: WANDRD.<\/p>\n<p>They claim to make high-quality, long-lasting products as a responsibility to the environment and their customers and are \u201caccountable to the brand, to each other, and to the earth.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"section_6\" class=\"block_textarea_single white text in_table_of_contents \">\n<h2 class=\"entry-h2\" id=\"wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-review\">WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Review <\/h2>\n<p>With a general idea of what this bag has to offer and who this bag may be for, let\u2019s take a deeper look into some of the features of the WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling.<\/p>\n<h3>Materials<\/h3>\n<p>The Rogue Sling is made of 840D Jr. Ballistic Nylon with 5 pm coating, 1680D Ballistic Nylon, and Weather Resistant YKK Zippers.<\/p>\n<p>I tend to not baby any of my equipment and this bag has been able to withstand the relatively brutal beating I put my belongings through.<\/p>\n<p>The nylon material is highly water resistant which brings a sense of peace throughout an unpredictable day. I never had issues with my stuff inside getting wet, though I haven\u2019t been caught in serious downpours yet.<\/p>\n<h3>Aesthetic<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-58342 alignright\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Aesthetics\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-200x200.webp 200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-800x800.jpg 800w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-768x768.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-500x500.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg.webp 1024w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1526032-5875963.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-200x200.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-58342 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1526032-5875963.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-200x200.jpg\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Aesthetics\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-200x200.webp 200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-800x800.jpg 800w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-768x768.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg-500x500.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-aesthetics-jpg.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\"\/><\/noscript>Aesthetics are highly subjective. Some people like bright, vibrant, extravagant colors with an assortment of bells and whistles but personally, I tend to be drawn to minimal designs and colors.<\/p>\n<p>The WANDRD ROGUE Sling comes in a variety of different muted earth tones which certainly fits my vibe. If you\u2019re someone who is looking for a neon pink option, you may find yourself disappointed though.<\/p>\n<p>The essence of a sling itself is minimal. In most cases, it\u2019s one strap with a small compartment \u2013 plain and simple. WANDRD did a nice job of packing a lot of awesome features into this bag while sustaining its minimalist look.<\/p>\n<h3>Comfort<\/h3>\n<p>WANDRD gives you tons of options with how to carry this sling so you can get the most comfortable setup. It can be worn as a cross-body sling, a messenger bag, or a waist bag depending on your preference. This gives it a lot more versatility than most sling bags.<\/p>\n<p>The shoulder strap and body panel on this bag are well-padded and have a breathable spacer mesh. That helps with the comfort, but it still isn\u2019t super comfortable with heavier loads or for longer durations.<\/p>\n<p>To be blunt, if worn for longer than an hour, you will be wishing you brought a backpack. Though I\u2019ve justified using this for a full day of shooting, it most definitely wasn\u2019t the most comfortable choice. My reasoning was I would be standing in a festival crowd all day and I didn\u2019t want to have a large pack on trying to maneuver through people.<\/p>\n<p>In most other circumstances, I would have definitely opted for a backpack.<\/p>\n<p>With that being said, the comfort level will vary depending on how much you decide to carry. I don\u2019t really know what circumstance would lead you to do this but if you were to need to utilize both the laptop sleeve and the tripod holder, then I would imagine you would find yourself in a pretty uncomfortable situation within minutes.<\/p>\n<p>As I mentioned earlier, when the laptop pocket is utilized, it throws the weight distribution off pretty tremendously and adds a pretty awkward feel to the bag. Though I think this is a really awesome and convenient feature to have, it isn\u2019t exactly the most comfortable, especially if it needs to be worn for a long duration.<\/p>\n<p>If going for comfort, choose wisely in regards to how you decide to use this bag. If you just need it to carry an extra lens while your camera and your main lens are in hand, the comfort level will be drastically different than if you are trying to use every feature on this bag to carry a day\u2019s worth of belongings.<\/p>\n<h3>Organization<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-58418 alignright\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Organization\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-200x200.webp 200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-800x800.jpg 800w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-768x768.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-500x500.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg.webp 1024w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1526032-5875963.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-200x200.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-58418 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1526032-5875963.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-200x200.jpg\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Organization\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-200x200.webp 200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-800x800.jpg 800w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-768x768.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg-500x500.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-sling-organization-jpg.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\"\/><\/noscript>WANDRD did an awesome job of including a lot of features in a compact carrier sling that you would normally find on a larger camera bag.<\/p>\n<p>It comes with a large main compartment, SD\/film canister organization, expandable laptop sleeve\/dual pocket, catch-all accessory pocket, front quick access zippered pocket with a key clip, accordion-style organization, and two shelf dividers. I love the removable dividers in the main compartment, which let you set up your storage how you want it.<\/p>\n<p>I am a pretty impossible person to keep well organized regardless of the intentions of a particular bag. I tend to just put my stuff in a compartment and hope I can find it later on when I need it.<\/p>\n<p>The WANDRD ROGUE makes organization simple though as it is such a compact carrier with a sufficient amount of features. It\u2019s pretty hard not to place your items in the desired pocket because you really don\u2019t have much else to choose from.<\/p>\n<h3>Durability<\/h3>\n<p>Sling bags are certainly not meant for the ruggedness of the outdoors, but the ROGUE passes the durability test with flying colors.<\/p>\n<p>As I have mentioned, I have used this bag pretty extensively through a variety of different scenarios and it still looks and feels good as new (minus a few marks).<\/p>\n<p>The water-resistant nylon material holds up well under wet weather and is tough enough to handle a bit of rough handling. I have no worries that it will last for years of everyday use.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"section_7\" class=\"block_textarea_single white text in_table_of_contents \">\n<h2 class=\"entry-h2\" id=\"wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-features\">WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Features <\/h2>\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve covered the basics, let\u2019s dive into some of the more detailed components of this bag.

It\u2019s basically an expandable slot where you can slide your laptop case in.<\/p>\n<p>Note that this isn\u2019t a padded compartment. WANDRD recommends you use this with their dedicated laptop case.<\/p>\n<p>I was pretty excited to try it out but ended up having a hard time with it in real use. When I loaded my laptop, I just threw off the weight distribution too much.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a really cool concept and may work for some people, but I did ask myself, does a laptop really belong in a sling?<\/p>\n<p>I think WANDRD does the best job that could be done with incorporating a laptop sleeve into a camera sling but as I continue to mention, it comes with the cost of comfort. If you\u2019re carrying a laptop regularly, I think a backpack or dedicated laptop bag will serve you better.<\/p>\n<h3>Main Camera Compartment<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-58409 size-medium\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Camera Compartment\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-800x534.jpg 800w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-768x512.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-1200x800.webp 1200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-1536x1024.webp 1536w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-600x400.webp 600w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-500x333.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg.webp 1600w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1526032-5875963.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-800x534.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-58409 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1526032-5875963.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-800x534.jpg\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Camera Compartment\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-800x534.jpg 800w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-768x512.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-1200x800.webp 1200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-1536x1024.webp 1536w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-600x400.webp 600w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg-500x333.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-camera-compartment-2-jpg.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>The main camera compartment comes with a few detachable dividers and several compartments for all of your camera accessories.<\/p>\n<p>I have found I can fit a camera body and 1-2 lenses depending on which lenses I decide to carry.<\/p>\n<p>For individuals who like to carry a long lens or an extra camera body, the sling won\u2019t suffice.

The added weight of a water bottle or tripod diminishes the comfort of the sling, I can\u2019t really justify going anywhere without water.<\/p>\n<p>There aren\u2019t too many places WANDRD could\u2019ve placed this sleeve but they definitely chose the right one by placing it on the bottom of the bag.<\/p>\n<p>The placement of the sleeve allows easy access to your water bottle. Though it won\u2019t fall out, it doesn\u2019t seem to fully secure a water bottle as it still seems to shuffle around inside of it.<\/p>\n<p>I have used a tripod in here once out of necessity but it was extremely awkward. The sleeve is really only compatible with smaller, compact tripods, so don\u2019t expect to carry your six-foot tripod along with you. At the end of the day, I think I was just better off carrying my tripod in hand as opposed to trying to mount it on the sling.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, I think WANDRD did the best they could with what they were working with.<\/p>\n<h3>Grab Handles<\/h3>\n<p>Grab Handles can be found on the top and both sides of the sling. It adds a bit of extra security but I don\u2019t find them to be overly necessary or useful.<\/p>\n<p>I think they maybe could\u2019ve saved a little bit of weight and over-excessiveness and just placed one grab handle on top of the lid.<\/p>\n<h3>Air Mesh Back Panel<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-58339 alignright\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Air Mesh Back Panel\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg-200x200.webp 200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg-500x500.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg-768x768.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg.webp 800w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1526032-5875963.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg-200x200.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-58339 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1526032-5875963.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg-200x200.jpg\" alt=\"WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Air Mesh Back Panel\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg-200x200.webp 200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg-500x500.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg-768x768.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-air-mesh-back-panel-jpg.webp 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\"\/><\/noscript>On WANDRD\u2019s website, they claim the air mesh back panel \u201cfeels like getting spooned by a baby sloth.\u201d Though it paints a pretty funny image, the comparison feels pretty off. I guess I\u2019ve never been spooned by a baby sloth though so what do I know?<\/p>\n<p>I choose support over cushion any day and I wouldn\u2019t say the ROGUE Sling provides more cushion than any other bag out there nor can it be felt more. All bags have their comfort limits and regardless of the air mesh back panel, the Rogue Sling\u2019s limit is exceedingly low.<\/p>\n<h3>3 Ways To Carry<\/h3>\n<p>The WANDRD Rogue can be carried three different ways: sling, messenger, or waist. The system for adjusting the carry strap between the different modes is pretty clever, but it does take some fiddling around to get it right.<\/p>\n<p>For abnormally skinny folks like myself, the waist option is virtually nonexistent. I tend to alternate between messenger and sling bag according to comfort level and duration of use.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"entry-h2 listicle_top_h2\" id=\"wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-accessories\">WANDRD Rogue 9L Sling Accessories <\/h2>\n<div class=\"text listicle_desc\">\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to get the absolute most functionality out of your WANDRD ROGUE Sling bag, you could check out some of the accessories that WANDRD offers.

A feature I do like is the stabilizer strap which is something I wish the ROGUE would acquire.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div id=\"listicle-2\" class=\"listicle_item  has_btns\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"counter has_h2\">2<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"listicle_item_heading\" id=\"bellroy-venture-sling-10l\"><a href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/deeplink?id=9yoA69MbTMM&amp;mid=43345&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fbellroy.com%2Fproducts%2Fventure-sling-10l%3Fcolor%3Dmidnight%26material%3Dbaida_ripstop&amp;LSNSUBSITE=LSNSUBSITE&amp;u1=wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link\">Bellroy Venture Sling 10L<\/a> <\/h3>\n<div class=\"text listicle_text\">\n<figure class=\"align-right hero_fig listicle_hero_img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg-500x500.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg-200x200.webp 200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg-768x768.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg.webp 800w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100px, (max-width: 1024px) 180px, 250px\" alt=\"Bellroy Venture Sling\" src=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg-500x500.webp\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg-500x500.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg-500x500.webp 500w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg-200x200.webp 200w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg-768x768.webp 768w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/bellroy-venture-sling-jpg.webp 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100px, (max-width: 1024px) 180px, 250px\" alt=\"Bellroy Venture Sling\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/deeplink?id=9yoA69MbTMM&amp;mid=43345&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fbellroy.com%2Fproducts%2Fventure-sling-10l%3Fcolor%3Dmidnight%26material%3Dbaida_ripstop&amp;LSNSUBSITE=LSNSUBSITE&amp;u1=wandrd-rogue-9l-sling-review\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bellroy Venture Sling 10L<\/a> at first glance looks less durable than the ROGUE. It is made of water-resistant ripstop fabric which doesn\u2019t appear to be nearly as durable as the nylon material on the ROGUE.<\/p>\n<p>The 10L capacity adds a little extra space but you have to wonder how much weight you are willing to carry on a single-strap sling.<\/p>\n<p>This pack also features straps to mount a tripod and I\u2019m starting to wonder if my opinion on this is off but I just don\u2019t see the purpose of these. For me, carrying a tripod on a sling isn\u2019t worth sacrificing comfort and I would rather just carry it in my hands if I found it to be that necessary for my shoot.<\/p>\n<p>The price is $175, so it is slightly more expensive than the ROGUE and MCKINNON but I have a hard time justifying why.<\/p>\n<p>If the extra liter of space is a must-have, then by all means, this sling may be for you. Otherwise, I think your money is better spent elsewhere.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div id=\"listicle-3\" class=\"listicle_item  has_btns\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"counter has_h2\">3<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"listicle_item_heading\" id=\"moment-fanny-sling-2l\"><a href=\"https:\/\/partner.shopmoment.com\/MmRRPq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link\">Moment Fanny Sling 2L<\/a> <\/h3>\n<div class=\"text listicle_text\">\n<figure class=\"align-right hero_fig listicle_hero_img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/moment-fanny-sling-black-jpg.webp 480w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/moment-fanny-sling-black-jpg-200x200.webp 200w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100px, (max-width: 1024px) 180px, 250px\" alt=\"Moment Fanny Sling Black\" src=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/moment-fanny-sling-black-jpg.webp\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/moment-fanny-sling-black-jpg.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/moment-fanny-sling-black-jpg.webp 480w,https:\/\/travelfreak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/moment-fanny-sling-black-jpg-200x200.webp 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100px, (max-width: 1024px) 180px, 250px\" alt=\"Moment Fanny Sling Black\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<p>At $59.99, the <a href=\"https:\/\/partner.shopmoment.com\/MmRRPq\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Moment Fanny Sling 2L<\/a> is one of the more affordable options on the market.<\/p>\n<p>It is made of water-resistant ripstop fabric and can fit a variety of your needs, but certainly not all of them.<\/p>\n<p>It can hold up to a 35mm camera, and various other personal items (phone, wallet, filters, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>Even this small 2L pack comes with tripod straps which I deem even more useless than the previous as your tripod would be at least twice the size of this sling.<\/p>\n<p>It has two compartments and a single strap with no padding.
