Though I fail as a minimalist, this bag helps me do a better job of taking only what is necessary. It's the perfect size that goes beyond a regular sling bag and is short of a small backpack. My standard loadout for board meetings is my 13" iPad Pro, paper notebook, writing instruments, cables, charger, and EDC items. The bag is comfortable and feels secure when worn like a sling. The extra strap management option keeps the bag in place when I run from delayed flight to delayed flight (no planes seem to be on time anymore). I ride a motorcycle whenever possible to give myself small breaks of enjoyment between meetings. I ride a large touring bike, so I am not hurting for space. I like this bag on the bike as it allows me to travel as light as possible yet still have whatever I need whenever I need it.
