Do you ship internationally?
Yes, but because we are such a small company, we don't have the scale or volume to get good rates. This means that sometimes these rates are ludicrous.
Just know that we do not make money on this. What you pay is what we pay. It's just a shitty thing that exists because we aren't big enough yet.
What does your lifetime warranty mean?
In all honesty, we want to do business in an upfront and honest way. If you feel you deserve it, we will most likely honor it.
Chat us and you'll reach one of two people: Siri, the founder, or Saibi, his cousin that helps with customer service every once in a while.
The things that don't require good vibes though: Manufacturing defects, design problems, if specific things are breaking at no fault of your own.
Critically: we want to know what broke and how. This isn't to pass judgement on you. It helps us make the product better in the future, and to make sure your issue isn't something widespread.
Will the product make me a better gamer?
Yes.
Customer Reviews
So far very impressed with the quality and the feel of the bag! Seems to fit everything nicely, but true challenge will come once dbrand case arrives tomorrow, will it fit then?
Large enough for my Rog Ally, and a host of other things. Items feel safe and secure inside it. 10/10
Happy about the mechanism integration although the cappacity of the pockets can benefit from a change. I am having to pick and choose from my most essential grips and mounts as well as ordering a charger with a smaller form factor (I am only able to fit a kickstand and three cords plus an adapter with a small foot print). Other wise the bag is a great addition tothe steam deck ecosystem, I cannot wait to see how it handles the steam deck two!
After having this bag for a few months and traveling with it, bringing it with me nearly everywhere; I can say my original review was a bit harsh. It's definitely a waxed fabric, just not the quality I'm used to. My complaint about the size, however, was completely unfounded. Everything fits so snuggly, and without undue pressure on any delicate parts. I never worry about a slight tumble, knock, or bump. By design, I'm sure. The fabric protects quite well from any spills. As you can see from the pictures provided, I can fit quite a bit inside this bad boy. I swap between the Steam Deck and the Logitech G Cloud (shown) regularly, using the included "taco" with both. The integrated mechanism mounts are just icing on the cake. Highly recommend this bag for the Steam Deck or Logitech G Cloud. I don't recommend it for the PlayStation Portal. If my upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 fits and I can utilize the rest of the little pouches for game carts, well, that'd just be swell. 🤞 Kudos Mechanism, team.
Original review below for context
This bag is so well designed, so thoughtful in it's layout and features, that in any other situation I'd be giving it 5 stars. Alas, it's unfortunately 10% - 20% too small. Everything fits, but I can't help but feel like I am squeezing the life out of my Steam Deck when I have my kickstand, backup battery/charger (Anker 733 power bank), USB hub, and a plethora of cables, screen wipes, and USB adapters all packed in. With that said, the storage options are amazing and plentiful. I just wish it was a tad larger. At a premium price I am allowed to nit pick. Oh, and waxed canvas this is not. It's possibly canvas, but if it is waxed it must have been done with earwax.
I had been eyeing the Inventory Sling Bag since I first discovered the Mechanism site. I finally talked myself into it to get more mileage out of the Deck. Zero regrets. This bag is a masterpiece. It is sturdy and made from quality, heavy-duty canvas and smooth YKK zippers. It is elegant, with clean lines and stitching, plus a discreet little Mechanism brand tag. The bag is very roomy, with that "foam taco" to cushion the machine, or removable to give you more space for carrying other stuff with it, but your Deck won't get banged around in it.
The genius, however, is in the details. There's a soft fabric lip around the inside of the zippers to cushion the top of the Deck. There's an inner pocket in the outside accessory pocket to hold a battery pack, with a USB cable passthrough port and another inner zipped pocket for small, loose items like SD cards or carrying boards, adapters, loose change, etc. The strap has a Mechanism mount, as does the inner pocket to stow your kickstand or other accessories.
I have been able to take my Deck with me more often and get way more use out of it since I got the sling because it's so secure. Get this bag. You need this bag.
