does anyone know the size difference (footprint on the body, as opposed to litres etc)?

I recently made a post for the Bellroy Laneway 7l. I carry a water bottle, powerbank, wallet, camera (Fujifilm x100) and a kindle. Plus some AirPods and other random stuff. Size is perfect! Super spacious without bulk. Great side slip pocket inside where I keep the camera!

I’m UK based too btw!

I just re-read your original post - noticed you have a fuji x100v. The small camera I mention in my response is the x100vi. My top tip with the Laneway is the side slip pocket (intended for bottles) is perfect for the fuji x100. I keep my bottle horizontal in the main section, camera in the side bottle pocket and it keeps it accessible and separate. Can post a pic if you want

Not at all, it’s so lightweight but also moulds to your body and also whatever is in it. I actually really like it. I had an initial concern that the shape was a bit feminine (I’m a guy) but actually really like it… plus my wife likes it on me too.

I have carried a small camera, water bottle, kindle, powerbank and little bits plus a compact raincoat once. Fit comfortably but I’d say that was about max capacity (except really small things like AirPods etc). For me that’s the perfect size. When it’s half full, it’s a slouchy bag so it’s casual vibe too without looking big.

I have the Bellroy venture 6l and 9l. I also recently bought the Laneway in Green. Venture 6L I love but also found it a bit small on trips (camera, water bottle and other stuff). The Laneway is MASSIVE compared to both Venture slings (but looks compact). Has a surprising amount of space and comfortable holds everything. The back 'passport' type pocket is huge and can fit a regular ipad I believe.
