Ruggard FotoTrek PKR-730BL Hiking Photo Backpack (Blue) - Posted 686 days ago

 The FotoTrek PKR-730BL Hiking Photo Backpack from Ruggard is a lightweight and comfortable backpack made for day-to-day hiking while photographing the environment in challenging locations. This large pack can be worn all day while shooting pictures of nature and city life. Haul a DSLR or large mirrorless camera, a tripod and accessories, and even a full day’s change of clothing. This bag offers moisture-wicking back and shoulder padding, with a waist belt and chest strap. The bag’s 30L interior and removable inner camera case allow the interior to be split into separate upper and lower areas. Multiple exterior straps make it easy to compress the bag and optimize weight distribution, as well as secure gear including tripods, monopods, and walking poles. There are plenty of pockets, compartments, and accessory straps to store essentials or add extra carabiners and pouches. Moisture-wicking padding along the back panel and shoulder straps offer all-day comfort, and provide a custom fit with a better center of gravity. The PKR-730BL has a weather-resistant ripstop nylon exterior, making it safe for venturing out in damp environments. For extra protection when it rains, quickly deploy the rain cover from its bottom-zippered pocket and completely wrap it over the bag. The interior can be accessed using the easy-grip zipper pulls. The large zipper pulls make it easy to open the pack quickly, even when you’re wearing gloves.

The zippered side-access panel makes it easy to get to your equipment quickly. Sling the backpack over one shoulder, and with a quick unzip, you can pull out your camera. In addition, the included removable camera case makes it easy to externally carry your camera, lenses, and memory cards, for quicker hands-on access to your equipment. The case can be attached to your belt for hip access, carried over your shoulder, or across your body.

A padded compartment protects a 17″ laptop, or stores a 3L liquid reservoir, available separately. Bring a computer for editing and uploading photos, or pack hydration for long hikes. Feel secure with this backpack and its brightly-colored fabric and emergency whistle. The bright-blue color stands out in a crowd or amongst the trees. Blow the whistle if you need help or to alert people of your location.

Top Cover Compartment

Store more items in the top cover compartment. This flat-top area is ideal for easy access to a wallet, map, or a light windbreaker. The compartment is a cover for the drawstring closure, which prevents the outside elements from penetrating the backpack. The cover’s straps can be tightened to further compress the bag. The compartment can be unzipped and removed for a smaller footprint when not in use.

Waist Belt with Accessory Pouches

The convenient waist belt offers added stability and sits on your hips to help support heavy loads. It adds a little extra storage for carrying compact items like keys, a compass, and lip balm before hitting the next trail. The belt also provides MOLLE straps for attaching accessories for more storage options.

Drawstring Closure

Stuff the pack and use the drawstrings to quickly pull it tight and closed. Closing the drawstring helps compress the bag, and the cord lock keeps it shut. With the press of a button, the lock can slide along the drawstring, making it a breeze to get inside.
