Redwing shoes are not only good-looking, boasting a rugged charm, but they’re about as sturdy as a pair of shoes get.Instead of outfitting horseback riders, they now outfit motorcycle riders.They are the most comfortable i have ever worn.They are also unbelievably durable.

Why you knocking Lowepro. They are after all the biggest name on the market. There bags don’t fit right? Have you worn one for 4 days, 32 miles in the high country of Wyoming? You heard of failed zippers? Did you personally experience a failed zipper? Tripod holder useless? Really? It holds my gitzo tripod with a kirk ball head just fine!! I’m thinking maybe you haven’t ever actually owned a Lowepro bag before.

I would recommand the burton camerabags, zoompac and zoom pro. Have carried more or less teh same stuff up and down many 3000m+ mountains and the these bags have always done the job excellent…

Just wanted to add 2 quick thoughts…

Alex – if you want to insult everyone on this thread, try doing a grammar & spell check, at the very least. Seriously, if you hate the site that much, then SCRAM – no one’s forcing you to read it. (I know, I know, don’t feed the trolls, but I had to say it.) I wish posts like those would be removed, although I’m sure policing this site for posts like Alex’s would be a considerable job on many days.

Thanks everyone for posting your thoughts – I’m in the market for a more comfortable bag, and there are some great suggestions on here. I’ll admit that I too am a recovering Lowepro user – used to LOVE their stuff, and I still love their shoulder bags, but their backpacks are leaving plenty to be desired these days – very uncomfortable, and HEAVY.

TAMRAC is the one!

i would go with the lowepro flipside 400AW. a failing zipper would be less likely due to camera access is through the back, so you any stress from weight is against your back while wearing it. plus it will hold more than enough for you. and you can’t go wrong with the all weather cover and extra storage compartment on the front. And i found it very comfortable to wear for the whole day.

I’d certainly recommend Tenba brand. Although I’m a fresh owner of their shoulder bag (Shootout Large) I’m amazed to see how the bag is able to fit just everything (including 15,4″ laptop and photo gear totaling 12kg – roughly 25 pounds). I assume their backpacks are far too suitable compared to Lowepro.

When you said “I need help” I thought that canon has sawed you or something. lol.

anyway, I cannot recommend a specific bag because its more of a personal choice and because it really depends on the size of the person. What can be great for a 5.7″ person for me will not be as good for a 6.4″ guy like you.

BUT, If you choose a bag, then make sure you post it in here before you travel. :p
