Multiple layout options

Shown here with the included padded base, the included 'SuperFlex 9-15' and the optional 'V-Bridge 15' holding the lens attached to the camera up.

There are 17 different sizes/styles of padded dividers available to customise the bag to your gear:

SuperFlex Partitions
DF Dividers
V-Bridge 15

Please note the height of the 225 will not accept the '9-21', '10-21', '11-21' and '12-21' size SuperFlex partitions like the other 5-Series, 7-Series and 550 bags can.

Main Compartment and TukTop Feature

The main compartment is padded on all four sides, plus the base.

Behind the walls at the back and front is a slim space, made of 2 pockets each (4 in total). Ideal for manuals, lens filters etc.

The zips can also be tucked down this space to keep them out your way during use. We call this the 'Tuk-Top' feature. You can still store slim gear in the space while using the Tuk-Top feature.

Front pockets

On the front of the bag are two generously sized dump pockets. These are perfect for film, cables, batteries, spare memory cards etc - helping you keep your bag organised whilst maximising the efficiency when you need it most.

The secondary flap shown protects these pockets from dust, weather and unwanted fingers. It closes with its own dedicated QRS straps – just lift them up-and-off the brass clogball to access the pockets.

Full width front zip pocket

The 225 has a full length zip pocket with enough space for an 11" inch iPad in a slim case. Two padded pockets can be found inside the full length pocket, ideal for small lenses, small flashes or lavalier mics.

Please note carrying a tablet computer may limit what you can carry in the two padded pockets.

Rear zip pocket

A rear zipped pocket the width of the bag is ideal for carrying maps, tickets and any slim items that you don't want to have to access the main compartment to get to.

Brass feet

All of our '5 series' bags (225, 335, 445 and 555) have brass feet mounted to strong leather corner patches. Together these help prevent wear to the corners of the bag and extend it's longevity.

Leather grab handle

For the upmost comfort whilst carrying heavy items.

The bag has an extra internal webbing strap at the back – together with the front handle (that has the grab handle attached) it can be used to carry the bag safely even when it's open.

Zip on main compartment

The delta sling is stitched into the strong leather side patches.

These provide a firm fixing point for the sling and also give structure to the bag.

Ability to attach a delta pocket

The shoulder sling is made of strong woven polyester with a brass fixing to allow you to adjust the length to suit your height and shooting style.

Where the shoulder sling attaches to the bag it splits into an inverted 'Y' shape at each end. This split sling helps with weight distribution which in turn helps to keep the bag steady and level when carrying a heavy load.

The bottom ends of this split sling is also where optional Delta Pockets can be clipped on to, providing extra space or organisation when you need it.

Quick Release Straps with Tripod loops

The Quick Release System to open the top flap has been adapted so that the top grain leather straps pass through solid brass 'D' rings at the end of the webbing carry handles.

The bag was designed this way to provide fast, secure closure even when the bag is heavily loaded. The strong webbing and brass D-rings bear the brunt of the weight.

At the bottom of the bag are fixings front and back for optional Tripod Straps.

The 335 is exactly the same design - just a bit bigger. In particular the 335 is taller and longer than the 225.

No. Only Delta pockets fit.

Yes they do! Find them here: Delta End Pockets

The following devices will fit:

Any iPad Mini
Any 9.7inch iPad
Any 10.2 inch iPad
Any 10.5 inch iPad
11inch iPad Pro

Please note this pocket is only padded on one side so you may wish to add a slim case for extra protection.

No. The fabric is made of 3 layers - the middle layer is butyl rubber. Water cannot pass through this butyl rubber layer. As long as you don't get a hole in the fabric or expose it to harsh chemicals (for example in a washing machine) the fabric should remain waterproof for many years. There is no need to apply re-proofing.

In simple terms ‘Canvas’ or ‘FibreNyte’ refers to top layer of fabric on our bags – the facecloth.

‘Canvas’ is a mix of cotton and polyester. ‘FibreNyte’ refers to our face fabric that is completely synthetic. Canvas is hard wearing, FibreNyte is very hard wearing.

Both fabrics are bonded to a non-wicking polyester backing fabric with a middle layer butyl rubber – this rubber layer makes both fabrics equally (and very) waterproof. Water can’t get through that rubber layer.

Both fabrics have a similar weave - the FibreNyte looks similar to canvas. Canvas is slightly softer to the touch, FibreNyte is slightly rougher to the touch.

People tend to choose Canvas if they want the bag to age gracefully and look vintage over time. This is particularly true of people who choose our ‘Khaki Canvas’ fabric as this looks particularly lovely as it ages.

People tend to choose FibreNyte if they want the bag to look newer for longer or if they are particularly hard on their gear - for example by carrying the bag to work with them every day, doing a lot of hiking or filling it particularly full. If you are buying a black bag it’s particularly worth considering FibreNyte as it will stay looking blacker longer. Also Sage FibreNyte is particularly attractive as a colour – it’s probably the most popular colour among our staff!

No - on this bag the padding is sewn into the walls of the bag. However, the padded dividers are removable (they attach inside with Velcro®).
