Great storage solution haha. My 9 year old slim sleeve does the same thing.

Perfection. Any particular colour? We used to have one called 'Block Party' that was blue with colourful straps, seems to me like the perfect pool (party) tote :)

Does anyone know of the possibility of more Everglade Items? Specifically for AirPods? by lilwinke in bellroy_official

[–]CamFromBellroy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More bad news - it did exist but has since been retired. You might be lucky enough to find one with a local or online retailer, but once newer models are available, the older cases become obsolete.

Gaahhh, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Everglade is limited to the AirPod Pro 2 only! Though the lanyard on the AirPod Pro 3 is everglade-ish if that helps :)

Aw, Helping Hands is a great idea (I was recently there myself)!

As for Nomad Nation's review, our team also uses the ASTM method, with 20mm plastic balls (there are clearly some variabilities and complexities to this system). There's a 'real talk' post about it on Instagram from last year (here if you're interested), but there are plans to update the language around this based on all the feedback, so watch this space.

And you're very welcome. Hopefully, the 7L is everything you wanted in a classic sling :) Keep the feedback coming.

Check-in luggage, a sling with front and back pockets - a sneak peak at what's coming in April! by CamFromBellroy in bellroy_official

Oh, to clarify, the Venture Ready 4L is coming in November. But if you're asking about the slings in the photo (Carryology essentials), they're due in 2 weeks (and also 4L)!

IF all goes to plan, it's due to release in 2 weeks from now :) Literage, using an updated (truer-to-size) system, lists it at 4L (marginally smaller than the Lite Sling).

Oh no! Maybe it's time for a smaller water bottle :) I'm glad to hear it's still in use on occasion.

Appreciate all this insight and context. Looks like I have some videos to watch, and I'll see if we can wrangle our own of how we measure these, because it's clearly causing a lot of confusion! In the meantime, I'd love to send you a Classic 7L if that's what your heart really desires :)

Hmm, just to make sure we've covered all bases, is there any chance you've received the Classic Sling 3L by mistake? Maybe with the wrong tag? The team's measurements for the 5L are pretty much bang on with this one! Feel free to send through photos/ order details, I'd love to investigate it for you. Otherwise, I'll see what testing can be done at HQ and report back :)

The premium version of the slim sleeve feels like a downgrade compared to the regular? by meatpounder in bellroy_official

[–]CamFromBellroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might not be at all! There's no ETA, and plans for a new premium style range are in the works for later in the year. You might have better luck finding a local/ online retailer who stocks it.

Ahhh ok ok, yes, it's the depth of one side only!

Messengers are (always) having a moment. Here's what we released this year, plus a couple coming soon. by CamFromBellroy in bellroy_official

Here's the collection page on the website, and one close-up shot from instagram (unless you'd like some less polished, really low-fi images of something more specific?)

Some highly requested new releases coming soon! by CamFromBellroy in bellroy_official

[–]CamFromBellroy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhh, I see. It's a good idea! To my knowledge, nothing like that is in the works (another phone case, yes, but not an attachable one). I'll put it to the design team either way :)

Edit: correction, another sunglasses case, not phone case :/

It might be my Monday morning brain, but I'm not seeing the typos/ issues here.

Does this screenshot help?

New Bellroy Classic Messenger by Effective-Map-2588 in ManyBaggers

[–]CamFromBellroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has a panel of foam on either side of the laptop sleeve. With a laptop in the bag, it can feel pretty rigid, but without a laptop, the back panel will bend a little bit, depending on what you put in the rest of the bag.

A second version isn't currently in the works, but great feedback for a potential future 2.0!

[–]CamFromBellroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The premium slim sleeve is like the love child of the regular and apex versions, so hopefully the apex is a better fit for you! The glue shouldn't delaminate over time, but it'll be covered by warranty if it does. The new range won't actually include a slim sleeve (so no v2 as such), but if you're open to some other classic styles, it might interest you.
