THE PRIZE:

The winner of our Febuary competition will receive a LOWEPRO Pro Messenger 180 AW.

When your gear feels right, your work more smoothly. This idea inspired the design of our Pro Messenger AW. Its durable, yet soft exterior is reminiscent of classic canvas, but it's actually a modern performance fabric. It's built to fit pro-sized camera gear in configurations you've told us work best. And it has an innovative flap that effortlessly folds in half to quiet your moves and quicken your pace. The innovative FlexFlap Design™ allows you to shorten halfway, attach four "silencing" fasteners, and grab camera gear without calling attention to your work. When you move from one location to the next, attach as a full flap for extra security. And if you need complete access to your gear, fold the flap behind the grab handle to easily work out of the bag. Discreet and flexible details begin with the unobtrusive profile and custom performance fabric, a specially milled material that's lighter in weight than canvas and resistant to abrasion and moisture. Interior dividers are padded and adjustable to fit a variety of pro-sized gear in a number of configurations. A Dual-Purpose Pocket transforms from handy storage space to travel-friendly trolley sleeve with a fast unzipping.
