    Thanks to the POSTS of Red-Five, Panzer and jjk454ss, on their Sarma Custom Made Torba Mini bags, I decided to get in touch with Sarma Custom.

    I messaged Boris on Facebook and our messages went back and forth. I wanted an EDC bag that would be able to hold an iPad Air2 as well as a mirrorless camera. I was looking for a “small” EDC bag that I could use touring a city on vacation or for a short hike. Boris’ recommendation was for a Torba MIDI. So despite having a ton of bags already for EDC, I pulled the trigger on a Torba MIDI in black and I am glad I did.

    The Torba MIDI is similar to the Torba Mini (see Red-Five, Panzer and jjk454ss posts) but with bigger dimensions.

    Here are a few pics.

    The Torba MIDI does not come with a water bottle holder. I just attached an ITS skeletonized water bottle at the side (which has 3 molles instead of 2 from the Torba Mini)

    As you can see, the Torba MIDI holds an iPad Air 2 and a Fuji XPro2 in both the front and rear compartments.

    I tried taking it out on a short day hike and here are a few pics of the loadout for sizing reference.

    It’s not clearly shown but my iPhone 6plus is in the clear zipper compartment beside the gloves.

    Rear Compartment can hold a GSI cup with a small canister fuel and MicroRocket Stove, GSI Soloist Pot, Shemagh, and packable jacket.

    A few things make this bag different though.
    The back panel has molle

    Overall, this is a great EDC bag for my purposes and the quality is top notch.
