Why We Like The WANDRD PRVKE 21 Backpack
There's no need to worry about keeping your camera gear safe through airports or around town with the PRVKE 21L Backpack. A durable nylon fabric is abrasion resistant and a waterproof coating sheds away light moisture or rain when it sneaks in on you. An easily accessible side entry panel allows you to quickly grab your camera when the shot is perfect, and a side water bottle pocket doubles as place to keep your tripod when the day calls for long exposure shots.

Everyday bag that excels at photography travel
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought because I needed a bag that could both be used to carry my photography gear and some electronics for when I travel by plane, but also to use for carrying some gear to and from work. The Prvke does not disappoint. May eventually expand to the pro camera cube, but the regular camera cube is serving me well.

Best theater/ photographer bag out there
I’ve been on the hunt for the ultimate travel companion, and the WANDRD PRVKE 21 Liter has officially claimed the crown as the best travel theater and photographer bag I’ve ever owned. Whether I’m navigating the chaos of backstage life or soaking in the spotlight of on-stage moments, this bag has proven itself to be an absolute game-changer. I take it everywhere—and I mean everywhere—from cross-country flights to gritty urban shoots, and it never lets me down.Let’s start with why it’s a theater kid’s dream. The PRVKE 21 is a master of organization, with its sleek, roll-top design that somehow fits all my essentials without turning into a bulky mess. Backstage, where every second counts, the quick-access side pocket is a lifesaver—I can grab my camera or a script in a flash while dodging stagehands and costume racks. The padded laptop sleeve keeps my tech secure (up to a 16-inch laptop, mind you), and the expandable design means I can stash extra gear like cables, mics, or even a spare costume piece when the director throws a last-minute curveball. It’s rugged enough to handle the wear and tear of theater life, yet stylish enough to not look out of place when I’m front and center.For photographers, this bag is pure magic. The optional camera cube (which I highly recommend) turns it into a fortress for my gear—my DSLR, lenses, and accessories all slot in perfectly, protected by customizable dividers. The side-access panel means I can swing it around and pull out my camera without missing a shot, whether I’m capturing candid backstage chaos or the perfect on-stage moment. The weather-resistant materials give me peace of mind when I’m shooting outdoors, and the comfy, adjustable straps make it easy to haul around all day without feeling like I’ve been through a three-act tragedy.What really sets the PRVKE 21 apart, though, is its versatility. It’s compact enough to slide under an airplane seat, yet roomy enough for a weekend’s worth of essentials. The hidden pockets are genius for stashing valuables—passports, wallets, whatever—while the magnetic tote handles give it a polished vibe when I’m not slinging it over my shoulder. I’ve taken it from dimly lit theaters to bustling airports, and it just works. It’s like it was designed for someone who lives in both the shadows and the spotlight.If I had to nitpick, I’d say the 21-liter size can feel snug if you overpack, but that’s more a me-problem than a bag-problem—learning to pack smart is part of the deal. Honestly, this bag has become my ride-or-die. For anyone juggling the unpredictable worlds of travel, theater, and photography, the WANDRD PRVKE 21 Liter isn’t just a bag—it’s a backstage pass to keeping your life together, no matter where the script takes you.

More than a camera bag
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Career Army officer, I’m used to hauling around my life in a bag. LOVE the PRVKE for its ease. Ergonomic, weatherproof (within reason), accessible, comfortable. Big fan of the strap stows. Two recommendations: some form of pen holder (probably in the same small pocket as the key hook), and a two-sided zipper for the inner flap.

Poor Weight Distribution
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love this bag, but once it’s packed, it pulls away from my body and the load feels 10x heavy than it should. However, I’ve been able to modify it by adding my own shoulder lifts, which help a lot. I’m a 5’8” woman, and it’s just not a great fit for my body type. If possible, I recommend trying it on before you buy, and not buying it during a no returns sale like I did. That being said, the quality is top notch! I have many Wandrd bags that do work for me and that absolutely love. This was just not it.

Finally found my favorite backpack
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I truly love this new PRVKE backpack. Along with being my EDC backpack, I travel for my work and I need the right balance of size and accessibility for my "personal item" along with my carry on. I love that the side pocket provides easy access to my shaving/dop kit. I alway have this with me in the case I have to gate check my carryon or I'm checking luggage. One never knows when a missed connection or lost luggage separates you from your essentials. The laptop and iPad sized sleeve are snug and secure as well as easily accessible. The outside zipper is great to store a book or e-reader. The top pocket stores my cable/charger bag well and there is is plenty of room for a jacket or packable coat. The top access felt lined pocket is great for sunglasses and stays roomy, even when the bag is full. Finally, I am so pleased about the extra length of the straps on the backpack. It's easy for me to get in and out of without catching a sleeve or watchband on the straps. Finally, the extra rollup for expandable storage will particularly come in handy when I pick up extra things to take home with me after travel. Super pleased with this purchase.

My bag of choice
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I count on this bag every day. Perfect balance of weight, durability, and storage. I’ve taken this bag to all seven continents in the past two years — typically loaded to capacity with cameras and computer gear. Highly recommended !

PRVKE 41L
This was the only roll-top camera backpack I found that my 16" WINDOWS laptop would fit in. The "standard" measurement seems to be a 16" MacBook Pro" but I found out the hard way the MacBook is smaller than some 16" Window laptops. What I like about the PRVKE: It's comfortable even fully loaded. The roll top is spacious. Its deep enough that I can stand most of my lenses vertically without them grinding into my laptop (or my back!). It has a pocket for the rainfly so it doesn't take up space in the main compartment. It has plenty of attachment points. The main compartment has plenty of configuration options. The camera cube can be removed and used by itself. The bottom of the roll top compartment can be opened to hold longer lenses. What I don't like: Although the bottom of the roll top compartment can be opened, the zippered cover inside (between the roll top and main compartment) is sewn in so can't be removed to open up the main compartment more. The straps are too wide for my Peak Design Capture. There's no elastic or cinch strap to prevent a water bottle from slipping out of the side sleeve and there's no attachments points on the sides to add a strap to hold it in place (the existing side strap works for a tripod but not a water bottle. Also, this is just a personal issue but I've had backpacks with zippered side access to easily pull out my camera. I find them awkward to use on a backpack so I would have preferred a 2nd side pocket for a tripod/water bottle. (I don't like attaching a tripod to the bottom or back. If I take the backpack off, it usually sits on the bottom or back so I can get stuff out of it. I'd need to take the tripod off to avoid getting it dinged, dusty or dirty before setting it down.)
