F Gear's F Gear String V2 13L Grey Drawstring Bag (₹199) is made for grab-and-go days when a full backpack is overkill. We carried it around town to test how much it holds, how it wears and whether it's worth the ask.
The grab-and-go piece you reach for more than you expect.
Build & materials
For a small piece it's nicely made — clean stitching, a smooth main zip and a finish that doesn't feel cheap in hand. It held its shape in a pocket or worn across the body without sagging.
Capacity & fit
There's exactly enough room for the essentials — phone, wallet, keys, cables and a power bank — without it ballooning. The strap adjusts to wear it cross-body or at the waist, and it sits flat and comfortable.
Everyday use
In daily use it earns its place: fast access to the one-hand essentials, all-day comfort and a low-key look that goes with anything.
What we liked
- Just-right room for the essentials
- Slim without being cramped
- Well made for its size and price
- Comfortable cross-body or waist carry
Could be better
- Single main compartment on smaller versions
- Water-resistant, not waterproof
- Strictly for essentials — not for a laptop or tablet
“The quality of the bag is much better than expected — water resistant, good appearance, sufficient size and comfortable.”

The verdict — 4.1 / 5
The String V2 13L Grey Drawstring Bag is a well-made, genuinely handy everyday carry piece for light days. If you want the essentials close without a full backpack, it's worth the small ask.
