enigmatic Customary Barge backpack lets you carry all manner of must-haves and

FLEXIBLE, ACCESSIBLE SPACE

EQUIPMENT-HUGGING SNAKE WALLS
Bend them… shape them… anyway you want… to hold your camera, camcorder or
accessories firmly in place. Arguably the greatest photographic advance since
the Camera Obscura, the shape-shifting snake wall employs double-sided velcro
fasteners and brushed padded nylon ribbing to create 28 inches of
equipment-hugging peace of mind.
DETACHABLE CARGO COMPARTMENT BAG
A bag within a bag that can be removed entirely when not required, this
handy-sized hold-a-lot with zipper and integrated carry loop can be used for
additional photographic gear – or anything but.
DETACHABLE PHOTO COMPARTMENT TRAY
Want to spend some time with your Customary Barge sans camera gear? Easy.
Just detach the photo compartment tray from its side and bottom velcro
fasteners, and the two of you are footloose and photo free.
FULLY ADJUSTABLE ERGONOMIC CARRYING SYSTEM
Wide, body contoured and filled to the gills with EVA foam, the Customary
Barge’s fully adjustable ergonomic harness straps combine with chest and
detachable waist belts to distribute weight evenly across your body. Location
shoots will never be a pain in the neck again.
PADDED CARRY HANDLE
The easiest pick up since Britney went off her meds, the Customary Barge’s
carry handle features EVA foam cushioning for comfort and double weave flamed
polypropylene for strength and durability.
TRIPOD HOLDER
You + tripod = five legs, three of them under one arm. You + The Customary
Barge = two legs + two arms when you use the included tripod pouch to secure
your three-legged friend to the bag.
MOISTURE CONTROL
To help wick away perspiration into the sweatasphere, the rear of the bag and
underside of its harness both feature Air Mesh padding. The rear also features
venting channels to keep fresh air circulating between the bag and your back.
DUAL ACCESSORY LOOPS
The injection moulded D-ring accessory loop on each harness strap lets you
attach various photo-gidgetry and gadgetry for instant access.
SAFETY REFLECTORS
Hardly noticeable by day. Highly obvious at night. The retro reflective
strips on the Customary Barge’s harness straps are the bag’s least and most
eye-catching feature.
WATERPROOFING MEASURES
Be it rain, hail, sleet, snow, beer or mixed drinks, the bag’s 900D outer is
designed to weather the storm and keep your equipment dry as a nun’s gusset.
ANTI-ABSRASIVE SURFACES
The 900D and Air Mesh outer, and brushed padded nylon interior and snake
wall, combine phenomenal strength with exceptional smoothness and malleability.
Your clothes don’t catch. Your equipment don’t get scratched.
