I bought it few months ago to travel around the world with my family of 4. It's very helpful to keep all the required travel doc to store it handy and safe. Durable material, good looking and water resistance. Shoulder strap is not too wide or narrow. Long enough to put it around shoulders or around the waist. So far I am loving it. Only concern is buckle. If someone want to snatch, it can be unbuckled easily. Arcteryx can find a solution by introducing three point release or safety lock .

The tatsu colorblock is super cool! This is a great little bag, and a good gift.

I've used it 3 or 4 days now. It's perfect size for essentials: phone, wallet, passport, keys, lip gloss. Love the compartments and seems well made.

Love it! I'm a big guy but the strap still pretty long, easy to clean, durable and compact size! Comes in zipper and pocket that useful. Very secure. Recommended for who like to use small bag (belt bag, cross body bag etc.)

Love it. Really nice length- I also had the patagonia mini one, but it wasn't long enough. I'm 6'4 and this sits perfectly when I throw it over my shoulder. The inside phone pocket it cool too- I have a 14 Pro Max, it would be nice if it were slightly larger. Finally, the build quality is fantastic- I much prefer it to the LuluLemon ones.

I bought my first Mantis 4 years ago and I was super happy; now I bought one new for a dear friend, an adventure mate.

Just enjoying this for a few weeks and perfect for holding a small water bottle, kleenex, keys, and snack for long winter's walk.

I use this waist pack as a cross body pocket book. It's perfect for those times when a large purse isn't needed. I like the size and the different compartments (some zippered, some not). It's just big enough to carry all my essentials. It's well made and will no doubt last for years.

Very comfortable and great quality bag! I was worries about the bag being too small. I was able to put my iPhone 13 Pro Max, a tri fold wallet, a hand sanitizer spray and a lip balm in side.

It seems to be high quality. I use it as a small medical bag, and it holds just enough without taking up much space. It has worked great for that purpose so far.

Such a great little pack. Nice pockets, love the blue! If anything, I wish the straps were a bit thicker. Quality is wonderful!

I bought this pack a few months ago and it was really useful both while traveling and as an everyday bag! The separate pockets make it very easy to organize important items and the size of the bag is perfect for storing bulkier items as well. While traveling it was great that it could hold larger portable batteries for phones, phones, wallets, snack bars, keys, coins, etc. The zippers are very robust and zip very smoothly.

Bought this bag a couple months ago and it has became my favorite everyday go-to bag. It's light weighed and holds all my daily essentials. The color and style match most outfits. Awesome product!

It's great for daily basis as well as travel. I recently brought to Korea and really enjoyed whole experience. It's super lightweight and multiple zipper compartments allow to store belongings safe. I strongly recommend it.

I bought this pack mainly for travel so I can fit my passport, phone and little essentials going through airport whilst I also carry a backpack for my laptop, bottle etc. I love it. It is really handy for so many occasions: Dog walking (phone, keys, lipbalm and doggy bags/treats) Travel (carry essentials and perfect for airport) Popping to the shop (phone, keys, wallet and grocery bag) Pub trip, night out.... I got the black design with gold logo (really wanted the older gold/brown but that sold out).

I bought this based on the measurements on the website being able to fit an iPad mini but my best guess is that I'm terrible at measuring, there's no way a mini would ever fit in here. I used it during a 4 day concert weekend to hold a glasses case with sunglasses, a Thread wallet with 2 cards and my license, a small bag of ibuprofen, and a few other little things. I used a clip on the strap to hold my earplug case and a Nalgene bottle. I ended up ordering the next size up (Mantis 2) which came today and is a much better size for what I'd like to use it for. I'll still keep the Mantis 1 for when I only need to a carry a few small things.

I'm so surprised by how much I'm able to fit in this small waistpack. It's small yet holds my phone, a little notebook, keys, glasses, a small wallet, and a bunch of makeup products. I especially appreciate all the little compartments/pockets and zippers so I can organize everything. I also like the outside pocket on the back side of the waistpack, which fits my phone perfectly! I'm able to put my phone away securely without opening the bag. The material is durable although it does feel a bit heavy. If I have the pack full, it can be a bit too much for me to carry around. But other than that, it's a very convenient and thoughtful design!

I got this to replace a different pack that was too simple and worn out. This has just the right amount of space and I LOVE the back cell phone pocket. It is organizational perfection and looks great! I wear it every day for wallet, phone, chapstick, hand sanitizer etc.
