The 5-Series is unmistakably Billingham and the 445 is no exception. Classic, well thought-through design and hand crafted quality, along with considerable internal volume make this a favourite amongst many professional photographers.

A particular feature liked by many Pro’s is the TukTop feature. This allows the two sides of the zipped opening to be tucked behind the bag’s internal front and rear dividers – meaning its easy to pull equipment in and out of the bag.

Further you’ll find nine good-sized main pockets in all – two at the front under the flap  , four internal slip pockets in the main compartment  and a zipped rear pocket . A full length front pocket contains a further two internal pockets and has space to store a 13″ inch laptop inside a slim padded case such as our 13″ laptop slit (available separately)

When you look at the detail of the 445, you’ll notice the Quick Release System has been adapted so that the top grain leather straps pass through solid brass ‘D’ rings at the end of the webbing carry-handles. We’ve done it this way to provide fast, secure closure even when the bag is heavily loaded. An embossed leather grab handle holds the hand straps together and makes carrying them for long periods more comfortable.
