Elegant, Smartly Designed, but a Bit Tight
on October 10, 2025
Posted by: Teq87
from Detroit, MI
I love this backpack—it’s elegant, beautifully made, and incredibly well thought out for organization. I’m not a photographer, but I use it daily for work and appreciate the clean layout and smart pocket design. The laptop sleeve fits perfectly, and the multiple compartments make it easy to keep everything organized. My only complaint is that the 20L size can feel a little cramped if you’re carrying bulkier items like textbooks or folders; I’d probably go for the 30L next time. It can also be a bit tricky to reach some of the inner pockets, but overall it’s a fantastic, well-designed bag.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love this bag!
on December 8, 2025

I've only used this bag 3 times since getting it but so far I love it and it's perfect. I can fit my main camera body, my 35 & 85 prime lenses, and a flash along with extra space on top. This is great, because I can just leave all my extra lights and gear in my giant roller bag to only bring when necessary! I will be using this bag for a lot of things beyond photoshoots and can't wait to use it a bit more and customize my setup.

Such a well thought out piece of gear

This is the most well thought out pack I’ve ever bought. It was an impulse buy while I was in Malaysia dragging around two separate bags for my carry-on/camera gear - now all my stuff fits into the one and it’s SO user friendly on the go. It also kept the contents dry in one of the most significant monsoon storms I’ve ever been caught in (with a rain cover on) despite the outside of the bag still getting really wet. Highly recommend making the investment!

Overall I’m a huge fan
on January 15, 2026

I bought this bag after outgrowing the smaller version of this, and I love it. The color (dark blue) is beautiful, and the bag is big enough for my camera and a few lenses, but not so huge that I look like I’m going on a hike. I love the clamshell opening when I need it, and the flexibility of the shelves suites my needs. I appreciate the added straps for carrying extra cargo externally—great to have a place for a jacket or extra tripod when I’m on the job. My only suggestion for the next version would be to make the side pockets larger or more flexible. I can easily fit a small tripod in there, but putting in a bottle of water seems more cumbersome than it should be. Overall, I’m a huge fan.

Great for an EDC bag, even with no camera!

I purchased this to be my new EDC as other bags typically only have a larger center compartment. Gone are the days of carrying documents and books for me. This allows me to rearrange the inside to fit the items normally in my bag without having weight distributed funny and everything shifting all the time. I also love the number of pockets, the specific laptop/tablet sleeves, and the two water bottles. It takes some getting used to (for the better), but the shoulder straps being on a hinge work better than I thought, too.

Great but could be improved by little detail
on February 3, 2026

I bought this 3 years ago, and am overall extremely happy with it.
I use it to transport my laptop and accessories and all other stuff to/from work (walking some distance).

Only downside are the adjustable straps, they doesn't grip enough and instead slips. Both on shoulder straps and over-chest strap. After a while it means that the backpack is far down my back, too far for my liking.

Favorite Beautiful Incredibly Designed Tech Pouch
on April 7, 2026
Posted by: T King
I finally picked this up in Bone, and I can’t remember the last time I was this excited about a product. The color is beautiful and perfectly matches my Bone Peak Design Everyday Backpack, which has already been an amazing travel companion for my camera, accessories, and a few extras.
With the Tech Pouch, all my cables, power banks, and chargers are now neatly organized and incredibly easy to access. It also has enough padding and space to safely store my mouse and number pad without worrying about damage.
This has very quickly become one of my favorite purchases.

Fantastic little bag, just not green.

Excellent. This bag ticked every box, i was alittle concerned about the size but it proved perfect for my uses, not too big and made me carefully think about what i required. Very comfortable to use, my old bag with less equipment gave me back ache after a short period, this was really comfortable for most of the day. I would by again.
