Battle of the pacsafe sling-style travel packs: Venturesafe X vs. Vibe 325 

How does this review not have thousands of views? BEST review for both backpacks. You should do reviews on RU-vid as a part time job, you rock at it. Thank you.

Excellent review my friend. I was looking at those two options as well and you provided enough information for me to select the Venturesafe X. Thank you.

It saves me so much time pondering which one to get. I was in the mall yesterday and it took me so much time to decide that I thought to find a review first before deciding and here you are. Thanks!

Thanks for the review. Defiantly helped me decide which pack to take on an upcoming trip. Hope you had a great trip!

Thanks for your great review! I was debating between the two and seeing the side-by-side comparison really helped figure out which bag is more convenient for my needs.

I just bought the venturesafe x, since it has the perfect measurements to be carried as a small handbag on my upcoming flight. Thank you for your awesome review, it helped me a lot.

Thanks for this helpful review. I honestly couldn't figure out some of the features until I watched your video.

Thank you for this video, it helped me a great deal in deciding which one would be the right one for me.

Thank you so much! I have a trip to Spain in a couple weeks and this was exactly what i was looking for. Have fun in Japan.

Thanks for a useful comparison. I was looking at the Vibe 325 for exactly the reasons you mentioned and do see myself carrying more gear (particularly if on holiday when I’ll also be carrying stuff for my wife…).

I don't comment much, but genuinely a great comparison and review of both of these bags. Trying to decide between a few different pacsafe pacs myself. Super helpful! Thank you!

I was stuck between these 2 bags too, but I think I’m going with the X based on your awesome review - thank you!

Hey dude. Thanks for posting this video, it actually helped me quite a bit in deciding what sort of bag to get. Going for a 20 day summer euro trip real soon!

This was very helpful. Been looking for information on how these bags when it comes to ease of access. When i learned that you couldnt just slide the venturesafe x to your front, like how the vibe does, it was a deal breaker for the venture safe

great comparison! thank you. i use the vibe 325 everyday - just got the new one they did a collab with Diamond Skateboards. the venturesafe x i use for extended travel because inside the back pockets are a clip on each side, they're designed to be clipped to the straps of a larger backpack and worn on your chest. very good for traveling in busy markets. easy to access cash, phone, hide passport.

Thanks for the helpful comparison. I was considering both of these, but the inability to access the Venturesafe without taking it off is a bit of a dealbreaker for me. Shame they don't make a Vibe in the same size as the Venturesafe.

Excellent comparison, thanks!

I wasn't sure what to get, but now im sold on the 325. Its perfect for my upcoming trip!

Thanks for sharing your project research. I ordered the Venturesafe X, i think it Ill be large enough for my gear (PC tablets)

Great video thanks so much.

Thanks for the detailed review. Really unfortunately that you have to take it off every time to open it. That seems like a fatal flaw. I’ll have to keep looking. Thanks again

Great review!

Tnx for the video, really helped.

Cool video!

Thank you for a super video.

thanks for your detail review. it's very useful.

Very nice comparison, thanks for posting. Did you mention that the smaller sling will clip onto a backpack?

Thank you. Just sold me on the Vibe. I can use it at the track. I can leave my things in my box, hook the strap to the railing and know I can get a hotdog without my pack and iPad mini taking off. I have a thermal pouch that would fit in there for snacks, and the money saved avoiding the hot dog stand will pay for the pack. I better hurry. It’s on sale on Amazon.

Useful. Thanks.

Thanks

Thanks 😊

Very good comparison Vibe 325 is my pick How bout vibe 325 vs vibe 150 They shouldve made a smaller ver of 325

Nice video I've just brought a new pacsafe bum bag for our up and coming trip to Indonesia. This one took me awhile to work out the clips and the strap was amazing I had to watch a RU-vid video on how to even undo the strap. Its my 2nd pacsafe bag. But I do agree with you sometimes the clips are a little bit too tricky specially if you're in a hurry to get your wallet out or phone etc. On my small osprey bags I just use carabiners joint together. There are a lot of pickpockets in Southeast Asia where we normally travel. It's amazing how fast they can be you don't even realise it's happening to it's happened. The only downside to this type of bag especially if a woman uses it as a sling bag places like Bali there is a lot of scooters and a lot of drive-by grabs and with the wire in there I can see you getting dragged along. But it's all common sense to you don't walk on the road side. But sometimes it's unavoidable

When you spend more time on one sling pack than another, the mystery of which one you chose is long gone.

So a year later - What are your current thoughts on the Venturesafe X and do you still use it?

I was wondering if a 13" macbook would fit :D thanks for the info!!

Hi was wondering does the venturesafe x fits dslr with basic lens. Since it was meant for travelling.

Would the inside zipper scratch a tablet or laptop in the main compartment?

Can an ipad pro 11 inch with magic keyboard fit inside? Even if its not on the tablet sleeve? Just really need to know... a reply would be appreciated

But japan is very a safe place with very low crime, you don’t need to worry about someone stealing your stuff.

On the venturesafe x, have you noticed any weakness or lack of durability in the top of the strap that does not have wire running through it? Just curious on the long term durability. Thanks!

Do you think ti fit in the sleeve an ipad pro 11?

Are you sure, that venturesafe has a steel in strap?

and I think I have the same incase backpack lol
