Excellent quality and functionality

After using the backpack in my country for regular ‘carry duty’, currently having it with my on a first holiday trip. Although I was fairly certain that the backpack would meet the expectations, it appears that it actually exceeds them. I like the material, color (sand), carry comfort and all the nice little pockets to bring along stuff. Getting my mirrorless camera out is a piece of cake. So very happy with this purchase so far. All the more because of the sustainability behind it

Beautiful, modern, intelligently designed bag system

Delivery: Ordered it at 10pm one night and received it the very next day at 11am. Wow! Your results may vary. I was VERY impressed.

Design: Beautiful, clean, modern, minimalist design. I got the beige colour and I really like it. Great layout of pockets - very intelligent design. The small camera insert is perfect for my Olympus micro four thirds camera. Pack also fits my M2 MacBook Air perfectly, plus my Bose headphones and a water bottle. The material seems to be very robust and resilient and should hold up well.

I just got this bag a few days ago but I'm impressed so far. I plan to use this for business trips and short day hikes. With the camera insert, its just large enough to carry most of what you'll need and is still quite compact in size. If they ever came out with one of the same design/layout that was 30 or 35L in size to hold even more gear on my hikes, I'd consider upgrading. An external water bottle holster would also be a nice addition on future designs too.

I'd recommend this to friends.

The perfect size

This backpack and its camera insert are the perfect size for everything I need. I love the fact you can even carry your tripod with the stripes provided. The gear that fits in the insert is a Sony A7III with a 28-200mm zoom lens attached, and a 24mm that fits in the insert (plus a filter and memory cards), then a 55mm that I put in the main compartment with the rest of the things. The bag has got lots of compartments to keep everything organised. Something that I specially like is that the bag stands up when you leave it on the floor. I'm quite short (160cm) but it doesn't feel too big.

10/10 Would Recommend

This is a truly beautiful bag. I got it in the green forest color and it's such a stunner in person. I got it with the photography kit which adds a nice amount of stability to it. The functionality is also really great and easily fit my main three cameras (two 35mm, one Mamiya RB67). I also appreciate that this bag is a lot less "stiff" than my Peak Design bag. Would easily recommend!
