This is What's Included

Removable padded insert

Removable padded insert


The flexible padded insert is made from dense, fabric covered, 'closed cell' foam and provides impact protection on all six sides, including the lid. Like the bag itself it is flexible front-to-back to allow it to fit slightly bigger gear than its dimensions suggest. ​

 

2x vertical dividers and 2x horizontal flap dividers are included and can be attached anywhere inside with Velcro®.​

 

It can also be removed to turn the bag from a camera bag to a casual messenger bag in seconds.

QRS Front Straps and Zippers

The top flap is closed and opened using the two top-grain leather front straps - just pull the strap up-and-off the brass clogball.​ ​

 

Under the top flap both the main compartment and front pockets also have zips for added protection.

Rear pocket and waist strap

Rear pocket and waist strap


The generously sized back pocket allows documents and maps to be stored.​ ​

 

The included removable waist strap helps to keep the bag close to you whilst walking, although isn't intended to create a tight fit.

Side pockets

Side pockets


At either end of the bag is an integrated pocket with flap and two-position press stud closures. This allows you to adjust how much the pocket can expand when it's full of kit or tighten it when it is only lightly loaded.

Brass feet

Brass feet


The Packington features brass feet mounted to strong leather corner patches. Together these help prevent wear to the corners of the bag and extend its longevity.

Adjustable shoulder sling

Adjustable shoulder sling


The shoulder sling is made of strong, woven webbing and is adjustable in length to suit your height and shooting style.

Shoulder pad included

Shoulder pad included


The bag comes with the SP20 shoulder pad included, making the bag more comfortable to carry and adding grip on your shoulder.

Packington vs Hadley One

Packington vs Hadley One


The Packington can now only be ordered as a custom bag with an extra fee. You can read about our customisation service here.​ However, we recommend taking a look at the Hadley One first. Here is a brief comparison:​ ​

The internal dimensions of a Packington padded insert are almost identical to the internal dimensions of a Hadley One optional full size insert – yet on the outside the Hadley One is smaller and lighter.​

The Hadley One has a dedicated padded laptop slip.​

The Hadley One can accept optional AVEA 7 or AVEA 8 End Pockets – the Packington has end pockets sewn on.​

The Hadley One doesn't come with a shoulder pad but can be purchased as an optional extra.​

The QRS straps on the Hadley One are slightly easier to use one handed and adjustable for tightness.

The SP20 and SP50 shoulder pads fits this bag. The bag comes with an SP20 shoulder pad as standard.

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 chose 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!
