SIDE STREET
Minimalism for everyday.
Side Street was built for speed and access while wandering the streets with camera gear.
It's dedicated side-access port contributes quick access but also to a lightweight and comfortable fit.
It's modest and unsuspecting good looks help keep it off the radar of potential thieves.

SIDECOUNTRY
Lightweight efficiency for the mountains. Sidecountry is the flagship backpack of 

Side Series and possibly the most efficient pack we have made. All its components and features are already lightweight for a camera bag, but you can further reduce the weight by removing parts you don’t need for specific adventures.
