Stowaway Shoulder Sling (Khaki Webbing / Tan Leather / Brass)
Perfect pouch for travel and everyday use - space for tickets, passport, phone etc as well as a small camera or binoculars.
The Compact Stowaway certainly won't fit a DSLR but it will fit smaller cameras such as a mirrorless with a short lens, small fixed lens camera or rangefinder. See a list of example cameras and binoculars below.
The main compartment is padded on all 4 sides, plus the base. This makes it ideal to protect your equipment whilst travelling.
For ease of access the compartment features a double zip.
The Compact Stowaway (and Airline Stowaway and Pola Stowaway) have plenty of pockets.
A zip down the side of the bag gives you access to a pocket that's ideal for a passport. The zip on the front flap is perfect for a memory card.
Under the front flap is another deep dump pocket.
Adjust the removable shoulder sling to your height or remove completely if you wish!
Two stitched belt loops on the back to allow your hands to keep free when travelling or out in the field.
Just behind the belt loops is a deep dump pocket.
The Pola, Compact and Airline Stowaways are identical in features. The only difference between them are the dimensions.

Does this bag need re-proofing to keep it waterproof?
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.
What is the difference between 'Canvas' and 'FibreNyte'?
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. Also Sage FibreNyte is particularly attractive as a colour – it’s probably the most popular colour among our staff!
Is the shoulder sling removable?
Yes, the shoulder sling is removable and adjustable.
Which shoulder pad is compatible with this bag?
The SP10 Shoulder Pad is compatible with the Stowaway sling.
Is the length of the shoulder sling adjustable?
Yes it is! It can be adjusted between 1000mm (39⅜") and 1750mm (68⅞") approx.
Do I need to buy a shoulder pad?
The shoulder pad isn't essential but can stop the strap from digging into your shoulder if you're carrying heavy gear inside the bag. It can also reduce the chances of the bag slipping off your shoulder. If you do buy a shoulder pad remember only the 'SP10' size fits.
Make sure to choose the colour to match your bag!
Could this be used to carry binoculars?
Yes! It should carry small-to-medium sized binoculars - just double check their size against the internal dimensions of the bag.
What is the difference between the 'Compact Stowaway', the 'Airline Stowaway' and the 'Pola Stowaway'?
They are all the same design and vary only in their size:
Can you attach dividers inside this bag?
No. The inside of this bag is made with a sheer fabric - therefore it is not possible to attach any of our Velcro® dividers inside.
You may want to consider the 'Pola Stowaway' instead. This has the same sheer fabric inside but some sizes of SuperFlex Partition will fit inside to provide the ability to divide up the space.
Can this fit an iPad Mini inside?
No. If you want to carry an iPad Mini please look at the 'Airline Stowaway' instead. Read the FAQs on that page for more information on carrying an iPad Mini in that bag.
