Some months back, we featured the Acme Made Bowler, which was available in the US, but frustratingly not available in Europe as far as we could tell. Well, here's some good news for fans of the bag – it's now available in the UK, courtesy of Jessops.
If you missed it first time round, the Bowler (as the name suggests) is a vintage bowling-style bag, but one that's designed specifically to hold and protect your photography kit – digital SLRs in particular. Not only does it house your pro-style cam, it also has small pockets for all your extras, like storage cards for example.
But best of all, it just looks great – and doesn't necessarily have to be used for photography gear. Available now from Jessops, it sells for £32.
I just bought one of these yesterday, and I LOVE it! I recently purchased my first SLR camera and hadn’t really been impressed with the bags I’d seen, they are all rather functional and more targeted to the hardcore (dare I say male?) photographer. But this is lovely – big enough for camera plus an extra lens, and it looks fab. I even think I like it more than the camera…
