Cinch bags / draw string backpacks

Yes! I love the ones that have a zipper pocket on them. We get the kind that are repell water. The only downfall is that they can make your back sweaty.
 
So we went to WDW for 8 days in October. I bought 3 cinch sacks from thirtyone for my boys. They are a great quality and the boys carried them everyday. My DS3 has sensory processing and he had no problems carrying it all day!
 
I use an Adidas one and works wonderful, no issues with it hurting me( and I have major neck/back issues).. And it's waterproof! Perfect for light snacks, sun lotion, kids snacks...
 
I have Under Armour bag-thicker straps and pain free on shoulders--has inside zip pocket near top. Waterproof. Outside has zipper pocket with two mesh pockets great for water bottles, camera, phone etc. and easy to get through bag checks.

When at hope I use on daily basis for my work bag in place of back pack
 

First off, those little strings dig into shoulders if you are carrying anything heavier than a feather in them. Also, you get what you pay for, so if you pay $4 for a bag, don't be surprised when the strings shred, or come untied, or something else.
My DH usually wears cargo shorts and can put a poncho (cheap dollar store one) in a pocket, and a bottle of water in another pocket. He never carries a bag.
I carry a cross body bag that I wear around my waist like a fanny pack (but looks better!). I don't like straps on my shoulders or a strap cutting my chest in half.
 
I used one for the first time last week. I travel VERY light so it worked well for me. No water bottles in there. I had two epi-pens, a tiny holder for Id, credit card and 20.00 (never needed any of that), one juice box and a couple packs of fruit snacks. I did stuff mine and DS sweat shirts in there when it got warm as that was better for me than to carry them and it still was just fine. I like the ones that 31 has.
