Oberwerth Presents George Camera Bag
After the messenger bags Richard and William and the colorful Harry & Sally, Oberwerth now complements its casual line with the new sporty compact camera bag George.
COBLENZ, Germany -- As usual from Oberwerth, the new George camera bag convinces with its finest selection of materials and outstanding workmanship. Handmade from 100 percent velvety soft, tumbled cowhide leather of German tanning, George promises highest wearing comfort and functionality on whole line. Thanks to the vertical format, dSLRs such as Canon EOS, Nikon D800 or Pentax K-1, as well as mirrorless cameras like for example the Leica SL or Leica M plus several lenses can be accommodated in a space-saving way, but are always ready to hand. A compartment hidden under the leather lid on the front provides storage space for smartphone, city map or passport. Memory cards and keys can be safely stored in a zippered compartment inside the case.
In addition to a modern and stylish look, the vertical cut ensures optimum weight transfer and a secure hold on the shoulder. The soft shoulder padding made of leather and the cut-resistant carrying strap made of close-meshed sewn cotton ensure maximum wearing comfort. The soft, cuddly leather adapts ergonomically to the shape of the body and also ensures that it is comfortable to wear.
Two side leather straps protect the valuable camera from moisture and dust, even in adverse weather conditions. George is softly padded on each side wall and thus protects the camera reliably against unintentional blows and shocks. The supplied divider pad can be placed individually inside the bag with Velcro and can be adapted to your personal equipment. This makes it possible to store a second interchangeable lens so that it is shockproof.
Like every Oberwerth product, George is handmade by skilled craftsmen. A sustainable production process, regional ties and a careful attention to detail are values that are reflected in every product of the bag manufactury.
