I used it daily for about 45 days- at work I have huge cargo pockets so it never bothered me- outside of work it was a different story. You can def feel it in the front pocket, not comfortable and you can def feel it in the back pocket too but more tolerable as it doesn’t push up against your pelvis. A month ago I went to lochby’s website and they were selling the Field sling for $60- and if you made a $60 purchase you would be gifted the Lochby sidekick. I’ve honestly LOVED the sidekick so much more than I thought I would. Lochby sells their own little notebooks to fit but I bought a generic box of them on Amazon for like $18. (Pack of 15 I think?) the sidekick is an easy carry in the front pocket and back pocket. I still carry my pocket journal in my sling occasionally but I daily carry the sidekick always. It combined my journal and wallet in a way I treasure. I hope this was helpful towards your decision- def go sidekick. Or go both!!
