Hex Introduces 2018 Camera Bag Collection
10 October 2018
Hex has launched its 2018 camera bag collection on its Web site today. The new Ranger Collection consists of the Clamshell and Sling bag lineup developed with testing and input from several top photographers, the company said.
"We have been really involved in the photography community for many years," said co-founder Trent Valladares. "and we are very excited to have had the opportunity to include input from photographers into these bags. We think the results speak for themselves."
The $199.95 Clamshell Backpack is a new discrete concept that allows the bag to be top, left or right-side loading. The internal compartment structure is customizable with EVA foam partitions.
Other features include fully padded and faux-fur lined device pockets for phone and laptop, a hideaway rain-fly, pass-thru luggage partition to allow the bag to be used with roller luggage, a more comfortable shoulder strap design, numerous accessory pockets, water bottle holder, security clip, molle systems, compressions straps and tripod straps.
The $99.95 Sling was designed to go hand-in-hand with the Backpack, functioning as a day bag for shorter, more focused excursions. The bag has a fold-out bottom pad that allows the Sling to be packed flat and transported in a carry on, then folded out to provide full EVA foam protection when it's time for use.
There are several removeable foam dividers that lend to this ability to both be a structured, protective camera bag, but also be packable as needed. The Sling includes a roomy main compartment, separate faux-fur lined pockets for both phone and tablet, compression straps, mini tripod straps and two discrete stash pockets.

Hex Drops 2018 Camera Bag Collection
Brand New Designs Packed with Features and Style
Hex, the award-winning fashion accessory brand, has announced that its new capsule of dSLR/Camera Bags are now available on http://www.hexbrand.com.
The Ranger Collection consists of an innovative Clamshell Backpack as well as a Sling. Both bags come in all black Cordura as well as a fresh new camo. The bags were developed over an extensive period of real-world testing and input from several top photographers. This input makes these bags unique and very intuitive, since photographers were so involved in the development process.
"We have been really involved in the photography community for many years," says Trent Valladares, Co-Founder. "and we are very excited to have had the opportunity to include input from photographers into these bags. We think the results speak for themselves."
The Clamshell Backpack is not only a new design, but a new concept. The patent-pending design allows the photographer total control in setting up the bag to be top, left or right-side loading. The internal compartment structure is totally customizable with EVA foam partitions. Other features include fully padded and faux-fur lined device pockets for phone and laptop, a hideaway rain-fly, pass-thru luggage partition to allow the bag to be used in conjunction with roller luggage, a new shoulder strap design for added comfort, numerous accessory pockets, water bottle holder, security clip, molle systems, compressions straps and tripod straps. As you can see, this bag boasts an amazing level of functionality.
It was also important to our development group that the bags were comfortable and discrete so as to not draw attention to the expensive gear being transported.
The Clamshell Backpack retails for $199.95.
The Sling was designed to go hand-in-hand with the Backpack and function as a day bag for shorter, more focused excursions. The bag has a fold-out bottom pad that allows the Sling to be packed flat and transported in a carry on, then folded out to provide full EVA foam protection when it's time for use. There are several removeable foam dividers that lend to this ability to both be a structured, protective camera bag, but also be packable as needed. The Sling includes a roomy main compartment, separate faux-fur lined pockets for both phone and tablet, compression straps, mini tripod straps and 2 discrete stash pockets.
The Slingretails for $99.95.
"As part of the launch, we spent some time with renowned photographers Trashhand, Misshattan and Travis Jensen," Valladares said. "We developed insightful videos with all three that provide a unique window into their craft. They also share their opinions about the new bags from a hands-on perspective."
