Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Mantis 2 Waist Pack

I was looking for a bag for my travels to Japan. Every other bag I tested does not have the same high quality and features as this one. I can fit everything I need with me such as camera, film, passport powerbank, snus, headphones, keys and more. I am so happy I found the perfect bag for my travels. P.s it's very comfortable

I bought two Arc slingpacks - this and the Granville 3L - and this is the bag I keep coming back to. The Mantis's depth makes it much easier for my to carry my EDC items and I also love the feature at the back where I can slot my cellphone in. The cellphone pocket makes it a lot easier to store and retrieve whenever it is needed. Overall, I would buy again!

This is the perfect small pack to carry every day to keep keys, wallets and glasses safe without filling up your pockets and having to transfer things back and forth. I just grab this and go! There's a small open pocket for easy access to cards or a phone which is handy for public transport and paying for things quickly.

Very versatile to use and one strong little bag. I could use it for any occasion and all my family can use it.

Bought this and I love how versatile it is, I can bring it everywhere with me, has all the right pockets, easy to clean, pack. And is overall a great bag. Love the adjustable straps as well.

Bought this Bag a few years ago and it's been my daily use ever since. Fits more stuff than you would think but it isn't too big or bulky. Also decently water repellent and has a perfect number of pockets.

I purchased this a month ago and absolutely love it! Its the perfect everyday bag. I love how its still a small cross body bag but has so much room to it! Great durable material and lots of pockets!

I bought one for my boyfriend and now I want one for myself, but only bright colours available. Please bring back navy, gray, black, neutral options!

It's perfect. Light and comfy. Holds everything from phone to DSLR camera.

Bag arrived 2 days after I placed my order so I was very pleased with that. Size is just perfect for what I need. Love the yellow colour as well! Has additional inside compartments which was a nice surprise. Paid a little more than what I wanted in a waistpack, but hopefully it'll last many seasons.

I bought past 2 weeks ago and I love it. The size is perfect.

I've bought the 1.5L and use for everyday, specifically for day hiking to put my phone and little snacks, super love it. So I bought the mantis 2 for my 3 day backpack hiking for more essential staff without stopping to get from my big backpack.

This is the third reiteration I have purchased and it has some welcomed changes...the strap is thinner and ends at the bag end are covered so they do not pile and damage an entire wardrobe of clothing as previous versions have. The secure zipped interior pocket is once more moved to the back, making more sense, and the replacement of zips in general create a more efficient use of volume. The two hiccups is that on one side of the buckle the strap is still folded backward so that it rubs on and damages clothing, the other is the key strap has been moved from the front pocket to the inner zipped one. Although this makes keys more secure it is more awkward when needing them as they cannot be readily accessed.

This is the 4th time I've gotten this same "waistpack" over the years, though I use it as a daily purse. I am thrilled to finally have one where the logo doesn't show up boldly, since I use it for both casual and dress-up occasions.

Love it, perfect for traveling and daily life. purchased a few including 1 and 2 for myself and for My family . Only one suggestion if the strap is wider would be even more perfectly.

Love it. I've been trying to get one since my son has his 2 years ago. I wish it is a little bigger to fit my allergy bag.

I was looking for a small carry-on bag, most bag a either too small or too big and bulky! This one is perfet, carry on pet stuff, gopro, phone etc! I bought the wrong color and decided to buy another one and keep both!

good size for everything!! i love it! i hope restock soon(black)

Like the materiel, it is very light. The size is perfect.

Survived the a Travis Scott show in the rain, kept my phone safe

Despite the name, it is very universal pack. It can be cross body bag, arm bag, or waist pack. Great quality.Very convenient pocket for your smartphone. Recommended for tourists to keep essential belongings nearby. APPROVED!

It fits for my everyday use. It has enough place for my daily stuff.

Looks small but can fit everything.I like very much

This is as usual a well made well thought out bag. It's also the perfect size for most activities where you dont want to fill your pockets with junk car j=keys etc.
