Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Mantis 2 Waist Pack

I just got this a few days ago and I absolutely love it! It's small but has tons of room! I bought it for my phone keys tissue hand sanitizer! I work at a school and we go hiking with the kids so it's nice to be able to bring a few things along.

I've had this a month, it's great for day to day use, has the right amount of pockets/ separators for small to medium items, the best quality.

I purchased this pack so I didn't have to carry a purse while biking, hiking or shopping. The pack is very roomy and holds everything I need. The back slot holds my IPhone 12 Pro Max perfectly!

I really like it and the color I ordered which not available in store, good size as I have one 8' tablets and 2 cell phones; can put everything inside with keys and purse together.

Bought 2, used for travel to carry just essentials at quick reach. Just the right size when waist or shoulder carry. Rugged but nice looking. Bought 2 more for gifts. The best!

The Mantis 2 is a nice size waist pack room for just about anything and everything.The many internal compartments are there to hide and file away the most important or trivial items. The Mantis 2 is well constructed. The only thing I would add to the Product is a pad on the strap, an adjustable one so the strap would not dig into your shoulder..

I've had 3 of these packs. I love it! But the main zipper eventually fails. The rest of the pack is great - good number of pockets and very comfortable to wear. Second problem is that it's never available! I've been looking to buy a replacement for my last pack for months now to no avail.

Le sac est top mais la sangle trs moyenne ! J'ai d changer ! Elle est trop troite a scie l'paule Mais le tissu est bien et l'intrieur pleins de compartiments

I was waiting for this to come available as I had read many positive reviews and it's exactly the type of daily product I like. It did not disappoint. It would get 5 stars if it was just a little bit longer.

I like the size and design of this pack, but compared to prior versions, the strap on the new version is too stiff. I agree with other reviewers that the strap has caused some unnecessary damage or pilling to my tops or fleece jackets. I hope Arc'teryx will fix this flaw.

Bag is great. Plenty of pockets and organization. The perfect size for every day carry items. It is comfortable and stylish yet the only downside is the strap. I'm 5'10" and at full length the strap hugs a little higher up the torso kinda close to my armpit. I wish it was slightly longer so it would lay above my waist. Others than that the bag is amazing.

Extremely happy with this purchase! Sits on the shoulder well, compartments are a good size and small pockets inside are great for organising !!

Please make more and with other color choices. I have been waiting for so long. I gave one to my sister last year and we both loved it. I was hoping to get another one. But I don't like the colors left.

I bought this pack for travel, and agree that the strap is WAY TOO SHORT. It needs to be a minimum of 3-4 inches longer, to allow for a comfortable fit crossbody. I have ordered a roll of olive nylon webbing, and will have to find a seamstress to add the comfortable length to the pack. Do better, Arc'!!!

This has the right amount of space. I use this on my daily walks. The only issue is the length of the strap. I wish it was longer or provide us with an extension.

Please add a attachment point on the bottom of the bag so it becomes usable in higher output activities and biking. With the narrow strap it just flies around too much. An attachment loop on the botttom would allow you to add a stabilizer strap which is something I would expect from a performance oriented brand - even though this item is not specifically performance output designed. Same goes for the mantis 1. Bonus points if the strap is made to be removable!

If the belt is wider with soft cotton material it will be great! The belt is too narrow and rough.

I really love the design, but I wish the strap was 10-20 cm longer, especially since I'm a wide-shouldered XL size woman.It stayed under my breast where it shouldn't be. I don't prefer the Lululemon brand for this reason. All of their bag straps are too short. They're not suitable for wide-shouldered and XL-sized people like me

Buuuut the strap is way too thin and digs into the shoulder while wearing it crossbody.

This bag is not white like the one on the website, it's grey,

Strap is shorter than original Mantis 2. I returned it

The bag is great. However the strap is short. Almost 15 cm shorter than on the Maka 2. I will have to continue to look for a sling that has the same good attributes as the mantis but with a longer strap.

Not a fan of how thin the strap is considering the size of the bag. Maybe make the strap a bit wider and thicker. Already returned the item.

I bought this product for my trip to Japan around winter break. It held all of my important documents and items going there and back. After the first week I started to notice little holes on the back of the pack and started getting worse and worse as I wore it more. I'm guessing the material of the bag was scratching with the material on my jacket. I was very disappointed that the bag was in this bad of shape after a two week trip. Haven't worn it since.

The straps are shorter than the previous design. My long torso cannot with these short straps! Will return!
