Please, put dimensions in metric units too.

Most of the world has moved in from standard imperial measurements. It gets annoying.

In reply to Barry King.

You’re right, Barry – that was a con from another bag that we put there in error. I’ve owned two Hadleys – one canvas one from over 10 years ago and one more recent one with the FibreNyte material, and you’re right in saying that they do resist the occasional downpour very well. Thanks for the comment.

You stated that the Billingham Hadley is not waterproof, this is not the case, unless it is dunked underwater, it IS very much waterproof I can say this after years of experience with Billingham bags.

Just have a look at their website which explains how and why their bags are waterproof

Great list — I actually own the ONA Brixton bag and it’s super overrated. It’s VERY bulky and the stitching is quite poor.

I’m a fan of Sunny XVI’s The Gogh leather messenger bag. It’s just as stylish as ONA’s bags, but WAY more affordable and higher quality.

In reply to Mark Condon. Hi Mark I've actually read that whole article as well but I'm still conflicted on which bag to buy. What would be your personal recommendation on the best photography backpack that can also be used for everyday use (for a college student)?
