Not every outing calls for a full pack. Sometimes you just need the essentials close to hand and nothing more. That’s where Patagonia slings and bum bags come into their own. They’re ideal for travel days, city wanders, dog walks and festivals, keeping your phone, wallet and a spare layer organised without weighing you down.

If you’re packing for something bigger, it’s worth browsing our Patagonia backpacks for day hikes and commutes, or the more spacious options in the Patagonia luggage range for longer trips. Think of these slings and bum bags as the grab-and-go end of the spectrum. Small in size, big on usefulness, and built to be used properly rather than saved for best.
