Awesome review bro. I bought a lowepro vertex 200 to hold my gear when crawling around derelict buildings (urban explorer) and although a fantastic bag I found it a little boxy and cumbersome. Your review has helped me decide to purchase the Classified 180 For those above asking to see this bag on the body, there’s an awesome review by one of my urbex buddys of the next Classified model up here:

Hello, first I would like to thank you for this very nice (and rare !) review.

Would it be possible to have some pictures of someone wearing it ?
I cannot find any store that would let me try it before having ordered so … it is quite difficult to imagine how this bag will “blend” in busy streets.

Another question : do you think the internal size would let you place two bodies (two k100d actually) one next to the other, ready to shoot, with standard lenses attached ?

Thanks again for the review, this blog rocks ! :p

Thanks! I designed this bag!
One feature that is there but hasn’t been mentioned to people is that it is designed to be able to wear on either shoulder. Of course the left shoulder is the most likely shoulder, but if you get tired, you can wear it on the other shoulder and still get access to the gear through the main compartment.

@Marv: I just tried this bag out in B & H in NYC last week and brought my Canon 5D and 24-70mm lens as well as my Macbook Pro 13″ with me. It fit both very well and snug. These bags are impossible to find anywhere in stock though.

the site say the laptop compartment can only hold up to 9″ netbook.

Have you tried to fit a 12~13″ notebook in it? see if it fits

@Jeff yup pretty much, although now when not in use I tuck it into the rain cover compartment. All the other straps are well designed and have some way of securing excess apart from that one…..which is a little annoying. I guess though if I used it as designed more it would be less of an issue.

that is my only minor gripe though in all other ways the bag is a winner in my book!

One question. What was the complaint about the stability strap? Let me guess, when you aren’t using it the strap is just flapping around………
