Boys and gurls, For a few months now I have been looking at all the options out there for a new truck bag to use for showers and such. I mean have you ever noticed that when you have a two strap pack you just throw one on the shoulder? I have an Eagle industries Crossover pack that has been filling the slot for a while now and I am itching to try something else. As all of you know I am a big fella and looking for cross body carry/shoulder strap type bags can get a bit tight on my Budda belly. I have looked at lots and cannot make my mind up on none. It's like I find something wrong with everything I look at. It's just crazy isn't it? So, that being said..... Suggestions?

No suggestions really, but I prefer a sling for truck carry. Quick in/out's to the house or work. Slinging a normal backpack is not good for me. It will fall off the shoulder and I'll have to watch how I lean so it doesn't. I don't really carry enough to worry about organization.
For my EDC, day to day, I use a Sitka Slinger. For my longer hauls a Camelbak Urban Assault. Good luck on your hunt.

How big are you looking? A few days, weeks, etc. If it is a few days, Sitka or Kodiak would work. Week or longer, you would almost need a regular duffel bag.

everyone is different, but i say go normal 2 strap bag. if youre concerned with it sliding off....use the other strap. besides, if you put much weight in it a single strap bag is going to be a headache
So tech go bag extended perhaps? Or Hazard 4 evac rocket?
Those could work. I have to say though I think they are pretty ugly. I think I'd settle on a better looking double strap than those. How about 5.11 stuff?

Maybe another tactical tailor three day plus assault pack. I had one in multicam and I gave it away cause I didn't like the attention it drew. This time I may go with ranger green. What do ya'll think?
