I’ve only heard amazing things. I’ve been considering it for a long time - if not just to review - but I find myself with less and less gear lately. It may be way more space than I need for my normal camera carry. I barely need the 21L anymore 🤦🏻‍♂️

This! My biggest complaint is the essential cube is so small it gimps the bag. I’ve only seen this bag reviewed by photographers/videographers not travel bloggers so clearly it’s marketed towards camera people. So it KILLS me that the waste so much space by having you put a thick bag inside of this bag wasting SO much space. If the camera cube was built in (like the lite version) and you can just add or remove dividers it would have so much more room. I was on the verge of selling mine until I saw this video but now I’m going to order the pro cube and hope it transforms this bag. Thanks!

Love that idea! I think if I bought the 31L I would also go half cube. The extra 10L and the depth would be perfect. With this smaller size - I’ll definitely have a separate carry on or duffle day bag for clothes and non tech essentials. I tend to be a two bag kind of traveler. Normally a rolling suit case and a tech/camera backpack when I travel for work or pleasure. I’ve been thinking a lot about what a one back carry might look like for my needs - been watching a lot of reviews on the new Shimoda Xplorer V2 backpacks. Especially the 35L they make.

@@ItsDesmond yea you mentioned that one in this video, I believe that’s what Sidney Diongzon uses for travel. I will have to look at that as well just for curiosity because I have enough bags lol 😂

@@ItsDesmond, I have the Explorer v2 35l. I thing they both have different style. Prvke 21/31 are for urban use and can do travel and maybe adventure. The aesthetics are nicer especially the Gobi Tan. The Explorer v2 35l is more adventure and can get away with urban and travel. You have less color options but it’s strengths are harness system, more access to bag than Prvke, no rolltop, all zippers, and Shimoda provides rain cover, waist straps, and one set of straps. And the interior is balanced with a light sea green/bluish lining and the camera cubes are light green so you can see your gear easier. I don’t have the Pvrke v2 but I just got the Frenweh for the same reasons that the Explorer v2 strengths and will try to cinch it down for air travel and see if I can get away with it. I also got the Gobi Tan as it’s a sweet color. Outdoor pack that looks aesthetically pleasing. Thanks for the video on the 21l!

When you travel does this bag fit under the seat as a personal item. I was worried it would be too big and airlines would consider it a carry on.

Good question. I can’t seem to find it on my bag. So definitely not noticeable. There is some dark stitching I can see on the inside of the water bottle pocket - but that’s literally on the inside and covered. Not sure thats what they considered the blemish. And my thought when buying it was that with this color - you’ll probably create a couple “blemishes” after regular use. But again- can’t seem to find one on mine.

Thanks for watching! Hm good question. If it was just one - I’d choose the 55mm. The new bodies are good enough to compensate for slower focusing. And my new camera body is the A7RV - so using the super 35 crop mode basically turns the 55 into a 75ish equivalent.

Also 2nd question if you have time to read this, if you were planning to put a mavic 2 or 3 in top section would you get the essential or pro cube? Thanks!!! Love your videos

Thanks for watching, Rachel. I think it depends on what you want to carry. The pro cube holds a ton of gear - but really just camera gear. So the bag is naturally a bit heavy. If you just need a camera and an extra lens plus drone - I would go with a light weight hiking backpack and maybe a Peak Design capture clip. I would not hike 7-8 miles in that bag. If I was going to hike I would probably go with something small like a peak design everyday zip - which is really light and the compartment a hood a good amount of gear. Probably enough space for your water, snacks and other hiking essentials. And if you want a mavic in the top area for east access - the normal cube should be fine - but there’s not compartments in the roll too opening without some kind of cube. But you can always throw your mavic in its own pouch

@@ItsDesmond yes I was thinking the same thing. I normally hike with a raptor 14L osprey which still fits a 20L hydration pouch, Sony a7riv 24gm & 50gm lol. So I ended up ordering 20&26L sportlite & hikelite ospreys ($90 each on Amazon, not bad) for longer hikes when I may want to bring a 3rd lense and then the pryvke 21 with regular cube to be able to safely bring a drone along on shorter hikes. Hoping this setup works. I have the peak clip, love it just barely end up using it since I move so fast on hikes and the camera bouncing around bugs me haha

Hey! Yes. The 21L will definitely work as a personal item.

I flew with spirit recently with a bag that was the size of the Prvke 21 and no one bothered checking my bag's size and it fit under the seat. Spirit has some of the smallest underseat spaces of us airlines

Hey! This is a limited edition Gobi color way. I don’t think they make this anymore unfortunately.

@@ItsDesmond thank you for the prompt response, i think I found it, but wanted to double-check as is impossible to find the part number on the Wanded site, I found the model PK21-TN-3 to buy which I believe is the same as yours Gobi Tan. The Yuma Tam seems to be the PK21-TA-3. If it would be possible for you to check the part number would be awesome. Thanks!

Yup. It will definitely fit.

That’s a 14inch MBP.
