Nice bag but lost 1 side of the chest strap.
on March 3, 2020
Posted by: Fontz from Boston
Use this for caring my photo equipment during hiking. Has nice padded camera protection and large area for jacket and other items. The slot for the laptop and iPad are nicely done and feel comfortable during the hike. Problem is that chest strap that is not that well designed. Fell off somewhere along the trail and since that time the straps never stay on. With the rate they fall off, it should be an item for purchase. Wouldn't recommend this product because of this.

Great Travel bag
on March 3, 2020
Posted by: Eddie
Great travel bag. I carry a Canon 5DMK IV w/ 24 70 F/2.8 L II attached and a wide angle. Carry plenty of other gear as well tripod, coat batteries, drinks, food, tablet. It does ok in a light rain not heavy ones. I would recommend putting a water repellent on it to help it out.
Cons: wish it had a rainfly for the price, also a hip belt that would help a lot for how big the bag is. Along with that some molle style hoops would be nice in different locations to use molle attachments.

Close to Perfection

I like to travel with my camera gear in person, as a carry on. It must accommodate couple of bodies, and a few lenses, as well as enough extras (a pair of trousers, shirt, toiletries, headset, laptop etc). This one meets the requirement. Better yet, it does so by sticking to its name "Covert", without looking like a camera bag. Right size, and form. Could be a little lighter but quality can sometimes come with the price. I do with it were water proof as opposed to just resistant, or came with a rain cover.
Additionally, it would have been better to have the camera pack zip open thru the top as well, to allow for easier packing. Right now, it requires me to take out all partitions and place one lens (or accessory) at a time. And likewise, requires removing partitions to get to a specific lens I may want to get to. Zipper that went thru the top as well, would have allowed to organize and get to any lens easier.

Awsome back pack but small space for camera + lens

from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Everything about this backpack is really good, i love it.
My only problem is how small the camera area is. For example i use the Thule Aspect for a day to day use and it can fit almost everything i need in the camera area when i go out (Nikon FF camera with a 70-200, 24-70 and even a 14-24) so my problem with the Thule Covert is that i cant't fit all this stuff in the camera compartment i even though of send it to someone to fix it for me because i would really like to use this bag as a Trekking bag for 2-3 days without long walks but being able to take all my camping, food, clothes plus camera stuff and i dont like the bags where is 100% camera space, i really like the side access for the camera area which is divided from the top. Please Thule have this in mind for a next backpack!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Bag!

This bag is between 4 and 5 stars. I have not had a problem with the velcro dividers at all! I've owned this bag for over a year now. I used it as my camera gear carry on to a trip to Iceland. It has an awesome storage compartment and will literally hold EVERYTHING you need it to. Pockets galore! The only downside is that it is a little heavy to be used as a hiking pack. About double the weight you would want it to be. But this bag will take a beating! I trekked 8k to see the Navy plane in Iceland while it rained the entire time. This bag is not waterproof but does have water resistance. My gear stayed dry but you could tell it started seeping inside the bag. I think this bag is very stylish and it definitely gets the job done!

Thule stands behind their Warrenty 100%
on March 3, 2020
Posted by: Mfontz from Boston
I wrote to Thule about the chest strap coming off and they sent me a new pack. I'll be taking this on some trips soon so we'll see how well these straps stay on.
Thanks for standing by your product and I'd just like to mention that the dividers work very well for me. I keep a flash under the camera, a 500mm mirror, a 70 200mm zoom and a 24 70mm on my D750 and it all stays in place and it's easy to switch from one lense to the next. There's plenty of pockets for storage and an extra layer of clothiers and gloves for those winter hikes. Again thanks.

Great volume

I love how this bag has a large roll top with space to store my personal items on top for my travels. Large water bottle pocket fits my 1L Nalgene bottle and the easy to pull out the detachable camera bag is great.
I would like to request that it considers putting in a detachable hip belt like in the Thule Aspect DSLR Backpack series to make it easier to carry on your back for long days of sight seeing.
