Just what I needed and more

Really amazed at how light this feels even when there’s a lot of stuff in there. So many great pockets for extra bits, perfect for long journeys or day to day. Great amount of space inside, camera feels super secure and safe in the compartment at the bottom. I don’t carry a lap top but it’s perfect for my Polaroid SX 70, great padding without feeling bulky. I’ve been searching for a bag that isn’t ugly and really well made and this is it.

It's a very multifaceted bag & excellent customer service

So I rarely write reviews, but I felt obligated to write this one since both the bag and the customer service I experienced was amazing. I made the mistake and bought the bag without the module bag included. Ended up regretting my choice almost instantly after realizing how much support it gives the bag itself. (and I would have to wait a couple of months for the restocking of the separate module)

I sent a mail to Urth and started looking through the return procedure. I was in contact with a lovely person named Cloie. It took a bit over a week before the new bag arrived (the cardboard box was kinda a wreck, but the bag was not damaged at all). I didn't get refunded immediately because of a mistake with a 10%-off code I used and some unknown system error, but Cloie helped me and quickly solved the problem. She also checked up on me if I had received the new bag & everything.

I went last summer to work in a neighboring country and brought the bag with me. It was comfy and easy to carry around everywhere. The outer shell is also solid waterproof and has a sturdy great texture. It easily stands on its own with the modular bag inside it as well. My only complaint is that it is difficult to remove and open the module compartment if the upper compartment is full of stuff.

I fully recommend the bag to anyone that needs organization for their camera items or just a great bag for smart travel.

Functional and Utilitarian - The BEST

My partner and I both carry cameras constantly. I have a large computer and carry 2 cameras with camera accessories, but this bag can hold it all! We both use it and love the color and how many smaller pockets it has as well. Great for long distance or short travels! Feels great on the shoulders
