At the moment, my daily driver is an Alpaca Crossbody Metro. However, I have modified the bag a little. I used self-adhesive mouse pads for this. They are self-adhesive, but I use a little superglue to really fix them in place.
But first, what do I carry in my Alpaka Crossbody Metro? The main item, and also the heaviest, is a Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 + Dexnor Keyboard. It's relatively heavy and fits exactly, or rather just about, into the Crossbody Metro. Then I have a second smartphone that needs to be transported; the main smartphone is in the bag in the strap. I also have an Anker power bank (which is in a modified Alpaka glasses case) and a power adapter with two integrated USB C cables. I also have an 8BitDo controller and TWS headphones (Technics AZ100).
Then, of course, my wallet and three small bottles (disinfectant, tablets, and perfume). And a Victorinox Swisscard. A significant addition is the use of the Alpaka Hub. I think the idea of the hub is very good, but not particularly secure. That's why I got some connectors that Alpaka itself uses for the cross strap. Then I had an Alpaka headphone bag and a hub bag for glasses modified (I have a great seamstress) so that the holder fits and, in the case of the sunglasses bag, so that the power bank fits. When my main cell phone (which is in the belt pouch—a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6) runs out of power, I can simply attach the power bank to the strap and it will charge the smartphone from there. I made another change to the strap. I had an elastic band sewn in to hold my car key. The great thing is that I can use the key without any problems.
Following the recommendation here, I am now also using a Heroclip, which arrived today and will hopefully serve me well tomorrow.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask – I would also welcome suggestions for further useful changes.
As today is Christmas Eve and we are celebrating this holiday here in Germany tonight, I wish you all a blessed Christmas and a wonderful holiday.
Really cool mods, OP!
Nice OP, looks good
