This is one of those "inescapable instagram ads" brands so imagine my annoyance that I caved and checked them out and it turns out they have crafted a perfect sling bag. The Crescent Crossbody seems very complicated with a lot of pockets (two of which are WATER BOTTLE POCKETS! in a SLING!!) but it's genius. The shoulder strap is adjustable, has attachment points for a carabiner, and has not pilled any of my clothes. The water bottle pockets cinch down when not in use, the mesh slip pocket is great for transit cards or other easy-access items, the main compartment fits a generous amount of things and has zippered storage AND a decent-length key leash. Obsessed with it — originally bought it in a lavender colorway and bought a black one when it was back in stock. Deeply, deeply regret not buying a "soph pink" colorway which seems to have been a limited run.  
Four stars, however, for two reasons.  The lavender sling came with a few loose threads that make me nervous to use those particular pockets (back slip pockets), but that was not the case with the black sling, so it might be a quality control issue. Also, I originally also bought one of their original small sling bags and while it's also very functional and I like it well enough, the product pictures were misleading about having a detachable strap which was one of the main reasons I purchased it! 

Durable bags and fun colours! Doesn’t fold up into itself like some other brands and is a bit heavier than expected but I feel like I could throw this off a truck and it wouldn’t notice. Wish they had other backpack sizes and styles, I might buy another if they expand their style offerings. Not cheap but feels super high-quality. 

I have no idea how Baboon to the Moon makes their products, but I'm pretty sure these bags could survive a simultaneous hurricane and tornado. I have a fanny pack from them that's absolutely incredible. So well made, awesome to look at, holds a ton of stuff, and is virtually indestructable. Highly recommend. 

If the aesthetic is what you're going for I'd have no hesitation buying this bag. I've tried a backpack from them and it feels really lightweight and comfortable but all the materials and zippers feel high quality. Definitely a bag I would expect would hold up well over time and could take a lot of wear.

The duffels store a lot, but are fairly bulky when compared to a product like the Patagonia Black Hole.

The brand is strong, and the products are really wonderful quality. I wore a fanny pack daily last year and it looks as good as new. I purchased a duffel for my sister about five years ago and she still uses it and it looks new.

Wish the quality of the bags were a bit better and they waterproof vs water resistant.

Baboon to the Moon bags the most esthetically pleasing adventure bags. I take my adventure bag on small casual trips in more rugged climates, It's super useful when going camping, it fits everything you need and is super easy to carry around when hiking. 

Every time I see someone with a Baboon bag in public wither one of us would initiate a conversation. It's pretty rare that a bag company could have such a fun and close knit community. Which is just a nice addition.

I love this brand. I have one of their fanny packs and it's incredible. It's the perfect size and has so many secret zipped pockets. The brand's mission is great and I support their products 100%.

Love the vibe and their aesthetic. Only wish would be for more functional pockets like a laptop case in their duffle as an example

The products are high quality, but design could use some thought.

I have the 24L backpack. My biggest gripe is the flat water bottle pockets.

When I travel, the backpack is packed full. So then there's really no room for a water bottle which would necessarily take up internal space =\

I'll be replacing this.

I started subscribing to BABOON's amazing emails a few years ago and finally picked up one of the bags. I love their patterns and outlandish prints, and this bag is very durable. I don't always use it for travel because it doesn't have wheels, but it's useful.
