If you’re looking for a versatile and compact sling bag for everyday carry, but you’re worried about having to compromise the safety of fragile gear that you put inside, then the new Hazard 4 Bandoleer is worth a look. Unlike other EDC sling bags, the Bandoleer leverages Hazard 4’s expertise in thermoforming synthetic material in order to provide a durable hardshell EDC bag that gives you the durability of a professional camera bag without the heft and bulk. The tactical design also allows for excellent modularity, and its overbuilt design makes it more than a match for your daily excursions, whether they take you to the great outdoors or just around the corner while running errands.

The most distinct feature of the Hazard 4 Bandoleer is the molded hardshell construction of the bag itself. The technique involved turns the already-durable and water-resistant 1000D CORDURA fabric into something even more ready to deal with the scraps of daily use. With 2 liters of space, there’s enough room for your essential tech and carry gear without weighing you down and ruining your mobility.

The bag features internal organization spaces for smaller items like stationery, keys, and small flashlights. There’s also a dedicated space that’s compatible with hook and loop holsters for defensive CCW needs. The exterior of the bag is also further extensible with Hazard 4’s HardPoint hardware accessories. And for a bag that’s designed around fast-paced activities, it’s streamlined enough to avoid flapping around in the wind if you wear it on a ride. And the versatile main strap is designed for easy switching between your left and right side for ambidextrous operation.

If your EDC includes valuable electronics like cameras and small tablets, the Hazard 4 Bandoleer gives you peace of mind as you go about your daily business. It’s available today in both black and coyote tan, so click the link below and make one yours today.

I have this bag and I really like it. There are only 2 things I would change about it. 1. The mesh pocket in the main compartment has a stash or diagonal zipper. I usually put my Nintendo Switch in this pocket, but the slash zipper makes it a pain to put it in and take it out. 2. I understand the sleek design however, it would be nice if one of the compartments was a little larger or at least expandable.

Other than those 2 things, this is a great bag.
