CAMERA BAGS

TRAVELING COMPANIONS.

KEEP OFF THE BEATEN TRACK.

The Ruitertassen camera bags are unique.
Based on our hard-wearing satchels, they look beautiful.

But their best feature might be how functional our Belgian leather is.
Learn how our camera bag will shelter your equipment from both shocks, and heat.

LEGENDARY RELIABILITY

We based the camera bags on our iconic Heritage satchels.
This means a strong and beautiful stitching. An indestructible top handle.
And our signature touch, a back and front flap made of a single piece of hide.

ALL-ROUND DESIGN

Your camera bag doubles up as a beautiful everyday bag.
Remove the padded insert and load it for a different adventure.
This two-in-one concept makes it a wise investment.

A SHIELD AGAINST SHOCKS, AND HEAT.

Cameras are sensitive to heat and temperature variations.
Components such as plastic, metal, and glass slightly contract or dilate in response to exterior conditions.

These micro-movements can cause irreversible damage over time.
Hence the caution notices you read on all electronic devices' instructions.

Fortunately, leather is a strong natural insulator. But not all leathers are equal.
Our camera bags' leather is :

  • Thick.
  • 100% vegetable-tanned.
  • Untreated, and uncoloured.

Our leather is more breathable, and provides a superior organic insulation.
With a padded insert made of pigskin leather, it will also absorb light to medium shocks easily.
