…my opinion there are much worse ideas than investing in a Hawkesmill bag which should last ten years easily, although my guess is a lot longer since I have a bag now for 5 years and it looks almost like new. –Nico Goodden

About the New Bond Street camera bag
New Bond Street has been a home for retail shops since the 18th century. And well before that, there was a Roman fort in this spot. Our New Bond Street with its rich black bubble leather, black canvas and solid brass fittings is as luxurious as it gets.
We designed this bag to pay homage to the great British field bag. In use since at least 1880, the quintessential English field bag has been relatively unchanged for over 130 years. We use triple layered waterproof canvas, paired with rich, black bubble leather. Everything is kept nice and secure with heavy duty clog balls and thick leather straps. We designed the New Bond Street bag to hold everything you may require, whether shooting briefly for pleasure, or a week on assignment. It is big enough to carry what you need, and small enough to still be discreet.

Incredibly nice camera bag! This was my first purchase from this outfit, but it won’t be my last. Thanks!

As tough as it is beautiful, this bag is exquisitely constructed from fine materials and is perfect for a compact daily carry such as my Fujifilm X-T4 with three lenses, a small flash, a few filters and more.
I have no doubt the bag will last for decades to come and will age like a fine wine… Now please create a matching neck strap!

This is how everything should be made! You can keep your cheap synthetic camera bags. This is pure class. You should be commended for going against the grain and creating something that our grandparents would have been proud of in their time.

Good evening, and to whom this may concern, I just received your camera bag, and I must say your product quality is exceptional. Over the last 30 years, I have been accustomed to the build quality and durability of Billingham camera bags. But I have to say this camera bag of yours is of the utmost quality and is a cut above anything I’ve seen to date . I’m sure I will enjoy this for many years to come and feel confident my Leica M 11 will be quite at home in your camera bag. Thank you for providing an exceptional and smart looking product . a very rare quality these days. Best to your company and employees. They should be quite proud of their craftsmanship. Angelo Mazzola.
