Luckily each of the clasps comes with a frame-and-prong mechanism (like a belt buckle) that lets you adjust the length of the strap or to remove the straps from the upper part of the clasps entirely. It’s convenient to leave the cover open to make your gear as easy to get to as possible, but you’ll have to live with the fact that your steps will be accompanied by a “clack clack” sound. One is that the two parts of the brass tuck-clasp clatter against one another if you’re strolling about with the cover unsecured. There are, however, some nit-picky things that we think you should know. The overall design and layout of the Leather Brixton is so good that we don’t really have any major complaints there. The leather is thick all around, and serious stitching keeps all the pieces bonded tightly together.
The build quality of the bag is also fantastic. If you’ve been defaulting to your smartphone or point-and-shoot when headed out of the house simply because your camera bag cramps your style, a bag like this one can help your bigger and badder cameras see more love. It’s a bag that begs to be worn, which can’t be said for most. “Gorgeous” and “eye-catching” aren’t words that we’d typically think of when considering most camera bags, but they are more than appropriate for this one.īags like this one might even help slow the encroachment of smartphones on the camera market. There’s just something different about leather versus synthetic materials, about brown versus black, about soft and tacky versus cold and plasticky. This is one of the most - if not the most - beautiful bag we’ve ever laid eyes on. The outside of the bag is thick, the main compartment features weather flaps on the top sides to prevent rain from entering the opening, and the cover clips closed very tightly with its two antique brass clasps.Īs you can probably guess, the main selling point of this bag is its style. Adjusting the compartments for different gear combinations is also a snap. The velcro removes easily and cleanly, leaving no evidence that the bag is even designed for cameras. As we mentioned earlier, the inserts can be completely removed if you want to make the bag no different from many messenger bags out there, with a single main compartment that’s soft and padded.
