DESCRIPTION
A take-it-anywhere classic sling from Patagonia, with just the right amount of organisation to keep your kit in order an made from a light yet tough 100% recycled nylon with a 100% recycled polyester lining.
Built to resist the rigors of the daily commute and made from Patagonia’s Ultralight Black Hole® fabric - the Ultralight Black Hole Sling is a lightweight, all-recycled nylon ripstop that’s highly packable, weather-resistant and tough. The teardrop shape keeps the pack right behind your shoulders and in place when you’re moving through streets or the trail. When you need to grab something from inside the pack, the asymmetrical harness lets you rotate the pack to the front for quick access. A convenient (and expandable) stretch mesh pocket on the chest/shoulder strap accommodates a wide variety of phone sizes ready for easy access. When not in use, the Ultralight Black Hole® Sling stuffs into its own pocket.
