More on the Nomatic X Peter McKinnon Camera Pack (25L + 35L)
What I like
- Ridiculously clean, durable, beefy, seriously structured and padded, and it still looks rad
- Intense comfort on the straps and intense organization inside
- Top access is my main way into the camera. I move the divider down so the camera and mic sit right there
- Tough materials. Drop it on its face, rip it open, get back to work
- Great side access and a big zip all the way around
- A serious professional collab, not a cute one
Watch for
- Very rigid and structured. Not much give if you like a baggier bag
- Not much quick access on the outside
- The 35L is as big as a travel bag. On the original, the side camera door wasn't a perfect fit with the cube
Specs
- 25L and 35L (the 35L is now the 35L V2)
- Water-resistant materials and zippers
