The [NITECORE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compact-power-bank) SLB05 ILLUSION Sling Bag has been designed and constructed with [urban commuters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/traverse-backpack) in mind to help them easily keep all of their essentials securely stowed when heading between locations.

Created in collaboration with OVERCLOCK ROAM, the bag has a shell made out of 500-denier nylon and a coated 600-denier nylon with double interior layers including foam side walls for impact resistance. The bag is accented by two-way YKK zippers, ultra-durable UTX Duraflex buckles and rows of [MOLLE webbing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coalax-lancer300) on the backside to support additional tactical essentials.

The NITECORE SLB05 ILLUSION Sling Bag weighs in at just 0.6-pounds and can be worn in multiple ways including across the body, over the shoulder or even carried like a briefcase thanks to a carrying handle.
