Original remains original.

One main flap. Quick and easy to open. Equipment always at hand. That's what makes a messenger.

As our first ever camera bag, the messenger should always be as cool and comfortable to carry as you would expect from a messenger shoulder bag. In addition, the largest compagnon messenger has storage space for large zoom lenses and a laptop up to 16".

Innovative closure

This Fidlock fastener from Germany automatically engages magnetically and opens effortlessly with a gentle pull downwards.

Practical storage space & access

The interior even has space for a DSLR with a 70-200mm lens when standing upright. Padding and accessory pockets can be positioned as required.

Hinged front

The front can be opened completely to make it easier to organize the large storage space or pack equipment

Comfortable shoulder strap

Additional shoulder pad for extra carrying comfort. Generously adjustable in length for any desired carrying style

A place for everything

With versatile, separate zipper pockets at the front and back, you'll never run out of organization options in everyday life.

All professional. For travel & everyday life.

In addition to first-class craftsmanship, it takes equally fabulous materials and parts to withstand the ravages of time for many years.

With the messenger, nothing but a silently operating main flap stands between your hand and your camera. Depending on the packed gear, even the largest messenger molds around your hip nicely and is great to carry, even zigzagging through the city.

A full-frame camera with a mounted 70-200mm lens even fits standing upright in the bag. Two compact bodies and several fixed lenses fit just as well. The versatile padding keeps everything in the right place.

The messenger is stylish and discreet enough for a day at the office and shows its strengths even without photographic equipment.

Compact has never been this big.

Combining comfortable and useful details for creative everyday life with a traditional design is an art.

Our largest messenger, the first compagnon ever, offers storage space that is particularly suitable for larger equipment and long zoom lenses. It sits on your hip, ready to access and fits your high-quality professional equipment perfectly, e.g. at a wedding. It looks stylish with a suit or casual jeans.

Its look also offers passive security, as it doesn't look like a camera bag. Of course, there is also space for a laptop up to 16" in size.

If the original messenger is too big for your purpose, you might find a perfect match in the smaller models, the medium messenger, little messenger or nano messenger.

Generation III materials

Regional bull leather

Naturally tanned compagnon leather from southern Germany is something special. The feel, look and durability are fabulous and just right for leather lovers. The robustness of this material and all its components gives your compagnon a very long life.

All parts that look like solid metal are solid metal. The smooth-running zippers from top manufacturer YKK make for easy use. All 3rd generation messengers come with the new main flap, which is also lined with leather on the inside. This means even more protection and always a clean bag inside.

For long-term weather resistance, suppleness and durability, an organic leather care product such as our homemade beewax can be used.
