Purchased as a briefcase alternative for work, but also makes an excellent travel tote with room for my camera, additional lens as well as my tech bag, laptop and additional bag tethers for tripod, stow pocket on outside and a separate pocket to attach to your roller suitcase for secure, hands-free mobility. I have an 10L everyday sling, but this bag is more adaptable for work and weekend use.
This is a quality product, it’s clearly been thoughtfully designed and well put together, it just doesn’t do it for me. After I bought a medium peak design sling, I got the tote for when I had more to carry. The bag, while being larger than the 6L sling doesn’t actually feel that much bigger. Maybe if I still carried around a 5D I’d appreciate all the thoughtfulness around camera/ tech carry, but ever since I switched to mirrorless, I need far less room and all the structure is wasted on the rest of my belongings. Because the bag is supposed to be protective for camera gear, it’s too stiff for things like my water bottle, book, jacket, journal, pens and I feel like I run out of room too easily. It’s also very heavy empty and will not squish down when only half full. It’s a great bag for the right person and I just don’t think I’m that person. The flaps are always snapping down on my fingers and the internal structure isn’t so flexible. I’m better off with the field pouch for my little Fuji kit in a lighter bag.
Bought this for my wife. She had gone through fancy high end large bags to take her laptop and personal belongings aaaaannnnndddd our 1 year olds what nots right. This one in black gave her mobility, fashion, space and organization. This woman lives fast so she needs it all in one place otherwise I’m stuck searching for keys phone AirPods etc throughout the house for thirty odd minutes lol enough said. Buy one.
I am a new photographer and wanted something that did not scream camera bag for traveling and around town here in the San Juan Mountains where I live. This bag is classy, efficient and easy to use. I love the adjustable shoulder strap and the versatility of how it can be worn. Great quality and holds everything including my personal stuff as well. Super happy and the bone color is beautiful.
I use this bag as a non-photograph dude, I was searching for a solid tote to carry my everyday things since I don't like having my pockets full. And it definitely does the job ! While it may be a little to big, I guess that's what we should expect for something to be long lasting and resilient.
I spent hours researching a new camera bag because backpacks are inconvenient and not very versatile for me. I just got back from my second trip using the Everyday Tote as my camera bag and as a travel tote. The older I get the harder it is to carry a lot of equipment with me so I'll pack accessories in my checked bag. The first trip I packed my Canon with two lenses and had room for all my travel docs and an iPad. The additional exterior straps were handy to attach my pillow, seat cushion and a water bottle. It was easy to adjust what equipment I needed to carry as I was out and about on a daily basis. Super easy to grab my camera as needed. The second trip was less complicated, I just took my GoPro, again with all my travel docs and iPad. My travel can be quite variable and I foresee using the tote each time. The only issue I had was that I need a longer cross body strap. It sits a little high and short for quick on and off.
I really like how this bag looks and the versatility of it. Would’ve given it a 5 star if the opening was easier open. It has pretty big capacity but I kind of have to push the sides of the bag and the opening to put larger items (I.e jackets) in the bag.
