7,580 Miles Round Trip From FL to AK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The question I had a few months ago was; how can I safely travel with my camera rig and all the essentials for a massive journey to Alaska? The answer was the PRVKE. The 31L camera plus bundle gave me *just* enough room to carry my camera, 70-200mm 2.8 lens, 100mm Macro lens, battery charger and extra batteries. Power cords and laptop and itinerary paper work and one change of clothes. But wait, there’s more! Monopod, umbrella, beats headphones, small toiletry bag, a bottle of water, and a portable hard drive and batteries. On this trip I wanted a bag that could do it all and be with me on both the long travel days and out on adventures. Fully loaded didn’t feel so bad, because the shoulder straps were comfy and the chest trap was a must when carrying all that gear. It felt solid and remained planted on my back (even when I was going downhill on an e-bike hitting 30mph). It made a tough job better by how well constructed it was.Also, the bag just looks really cool. I love the offset zipper and roll top features. What’s more is the functionality that the form allows as well. The roll top feature was my personal selling point. I needed a bag that could carry extra gear while we were out exploring. I have two children and a wife, so there’s never a shortage of requests to either hold something or provide something at any given time. The roll top handled everything I put in there with easy. The camera compartment is nice with a generous selection of Velcro dividers and straps. I didn’t really get to use the side pocket door much, because my lens hood made the extraction awkward. However, the clamshell design was easy enough to zip open and grab my gear. No biggie.I have 14” laptop that fit snug in the large pocket.It kept is well protected as well. I was not worried about it or my camera getting hurt. The large front zipper pocket was great to store my little souvenirs as we went from place to place. While traveling, I used the luggage strap every chance I had. It was such a nice quality of life feature, that I just simply loved it. After a plane ride or two and some Ubers to here and there, it was nice to take the pack off of my shoulders and put it safely on my luggage. Design and construction seem and proved to be well thought out and produced. The only complaint I have was with the interior pockets on the lid of the clam shell. I put a mechanical pencil and a pen in one of there and the fabric took some damage. I was caught off guard by that, but whatever, I’ll just move them somewhere else. The only other negative is that since this pack is kinda large, I had to place it in the over head bins on the planes. That wasn’t the worst, so just expect to not have easy access while flying. I was not gentle to this bag. It took planes, trains. boats, rafts, and automobile rides. It handled the abuse very well and only ended up with a little cosmetic scratches. What I did by like: the chest strap. I really didn’t like the way it snaps. I would have preferred just a standard clip like most bags use. The reason I didn’t like it was the act of clipping it into place. The little string assist would get in the way and/or I wouldn’t get the clip seated right and might take me a few attempts to get it to snap. Deal breaker? HARDLY! Just because I don’t like it, doesn’t mean you have to hate it too! That was my only negative about the bag, so take that with a grain of salt.10/10 would recommend. Like, comment, and subscribe.(Pictures were taken along the way in the rain and during transport)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far it appears to fit everything I was looking for: Functionality, Comfort and Style. Definitely would recommend, the cost hurts initially, but with a lifetime warranty, this will be worth the investment.

I want to love it so much!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ok, soooooooo I want to love this bag. I really do.I want to be one of the cool kids so bad! But.....I don’t love the material. I think Cloth is more me. But we are working on it and I might adjust. However...The top interior “pocket” is driving me crazy. I want it to be on the bottom. It’s useless to me and actually makes it super cumbersome to get laptops out. Could I fix that? Probably.... I’m pretty handy with a needle and thread but at the price point of this bag? I shouldn’t have to.I actually have considered returning it but haven’t come off the road long enough to do so.I’m sorry cool bag! I’m maybe just not cool enough for you or your upside down weirdy pocket thing.

Management Consultant Approved (ex-Tumi lover)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a dyed in the wool management consultant who only buys and uses Tumi luggage. They're functional, stylist and super reliable.That is, until, I decided to try out the PRVKE.It is, without a doubt, the most thoughtfully designed piece of luggage, bag, etc. that I have ever purchased. Just watch the video of the co-founder viewers through each design choice and piece of functionality and you'll get what I mean. And using it when I travel is just so amazing - from the luggage strap, to the easy accessible pockets, amazingly resilient fabric and material. This bag has it all (and all of the space you could possibly imagine and want).Get it - you won't regret it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent organization for my Nikon Z7 camera, 24-70 & 70-200 zoom lenses & 50 macro lens, as well as accessories. Important that the loaded bag will fit under airplane seat for upcoming trips to Galapagos, New Zealand & Australia. Quality is top notch.

Fashion Meets Function

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love everything about this bag! First, it's a beautiful bag with the most gorgeous color options. I went with the burnt orange. I was immediately drawn to its chill aesthetic and knew I had to order asap. When I got the bag, I was amazed by all its pockets- it's such an easy way to stay organized. Everything has its place, like my keys, my wallet, and my 16" MacBook even fit in. I could even double it up as a gym bag and include my boxing gloves for after work. I love everything about it. By far, the best purchase I've made this year.
