Brevitē Announces 'Under the Radar' Camera Bags

Brevitē has announced two interesting bags, the Rolltop and the Rucksack. Designed to minimize the appearance of being a camera bag with expensive gear inside, they offer a great alternative if you're looking to be a bit more discreet or fashionable.

Sometimes, we don't want a camera bag that screams: "Look at all the really expensive gear hanging off my back!" Brevitē recognized this and created the Rucksack and Rolltop, which look more like fashionable backpacks than they do dedicated camera bags. The advantage is both having a more mainstream than specialized look and protection from potential theft, something I definitely appreciate. Both bags come with a removable camera system, allowing them to transform into normal bags as well.

The Rucksack features a nylon outer layer, while the Rolltop uses a waterproof polyester material. Both can hold a 15" laptop, feature hidden rain covers, memory card holders in the sternum strap and hip belt, sweat-wicking materials, and a lens cap buckle on the shoulder strap (52, 58, or 67mm). Lastly, both are 18" by 13" by 6", making them well within carry-on size. They look like intriguing options for those of us who want a camera bag that doesn't look like a camera bag. You can pre-order them here.
