Pros & Cons
Cons
No snapping device. Bottle easily slips out. Key fob falls out of front pocket.
Highlights
Quality
Good materials, comfortable to wear and had good storage.
This sling is compatible with a water reservoir because it has an inner pouch to hold one and a slit cut-out at the top for the tubing.
Instead of a bladder, this sling comes with a (kind of cheap) camelbak water bottle that fits into a single outer mesh pocket.
Finally the bag strap goes over just one shoulder and has a pouch for your cell phone.
Shipping
I ordered this camelbak arete 8 liter sling shortly after ordering a camelbak arete 18 liter hydration backpack.

However the bottle holder material is very loose and the bottle slips out easily

Worked great for my theme park trips so far but i had to constantly readjust it on my shoulder since it would ride up my neck and not stay on my shoulder

I’ve had both for about 67 weeks and have used both pretty extensively although for different reasons

The backpack is better for dayhikes because it has a bladder and room for two extra water bottles on top of that

This is a standard half liter water bottle with a twist off lid and no straw or spout

It doesn’t leak which is great but it is not really convenient to have to twist off the lid every time you want to drink
