Some will thing it looks “purse like” and that is the problem with many fashionable camera bags.
I had several compliments on it while traveling all week from people just saying “nice bag” to those asking me what it is and where to get one. It will hold it all for travel and if you want to look good while traveling, the Union Street will help you with that goal. So the Union Street would also be good for a Leica M system, a few lenses, a laptop computer, chargers, cables, SD cards, etc. Three days carrying that load around can really do a number to a man who is 43, almost 44 🙂 it was HEAVY and today, 3 days later, my back is thanking me for that. I carried a Canon 6D and 85L along with a Sigma 35 1.4 and Sony NEX-7 and added my 13″ Macbook Air. It also comes in at $119, so it is not crazy expensive (though it looks and feels like it should be) It is perfect for a Leica M and 2-3 lenses. I used to own a Billingham Hadley Small about 5 years ago and really liked it but today I would choose a Bowery as I really enjoy the design and build and feel. So, besides that one niggle, I thought the bags were gorgeous. These two leather colors were much different with the Union Street being a dark reddish leather and the Bowery being a brown. The one thing that disappointed me was that the Union Street and Bowery, while both being Black with leather trim, well, they use different color leather! If someone was buying these as a set for travel (again, one for larger systems and one for smaller systems) it would be nice if they matched since many who will buy these are not only buying them for the build and functionality, but the style as well. These are some great looking stylish bags, and made VERY well. When they arrived I appreciated the nice packaging and when I saw the bags I was pleasantly surprised at just how nice they really look in person. But I decided to take a look at the black with the brown leather trim. The Smoke, the Black, the Field Tan and even the all leather offerings. They pretty much ALL look attractive to me. The 1st thing that struck me is the colors available. One for a larger setup (DSLR) and one for a smaller setup (Mirrorless or Leica M). ONA makes some amazing bags for cameras or whatever gadgets you want to carry and I decided that the Union Street and the Bowery would be two great bags to take a look at because A: Many photographers swear by them and B: They are two bags differing enough in size to where you could own both. In previous articles I have shared my love for Artist & Artisan bags.īut today I am going to write about bags that so many others online have written about in the past because these are NOT new bags, but they are DAMN GOOD ones 🙂 These two bags are from ONA. Before that it was the new Think Tank Mirrorless Movers. Last time it was the attractive and very functional TENBA Mini Messenger. It seems like I have been getting a ton of bags in lately for review. BAG REVIEW: Ona Union Street and The Bowery
