The reviewer could make the pack work as a lightweight laptop bag but worried its size and weight might let it slip out. The reviewer describes the Wautton Waist Pack as larger than a typical fanny pack and configured differently from other packs they have used. The reviewer says the pack works equally well as a fanny pack or shoulder bag, with solid materials.
The detachable front bag includes its own lighter strap, allowing that smaller section to be carried separately when desired. The reviewer found the strap latch distinctive because its pivoting design provides greater flexibility when wearing the bag.
