- When I started getting more serious
about photography and videography, I very quickly
realized it was going to be well worth it to invest
in a backpack that was going to make my life easier
for carrying both camera gear
and everyday stuff like things I needed for work, travel
picnics farmer's market trips, pretty much anything.
I wanted a bag that could do it all.
And after a ton of research, I finally decided
on and purchased the WANDRD PRVKE 31 liter backpack.
And it's been my go-to bag ever since.
And if you've been watching the channel for a while
that's saying something because I've reviewed a handful
of bags too, but I keep coming back to this one
but WANDRD just stepped it up
by putting out a brand new version
of the PRVKE lineup that takes it to a whole new level.
And they reached out to me and asked
if I could help share some of the new features
and functions that they've added to the new PRVKE
but they also know
that I get a little excited when I'm talking
about my PRVKE bag
and I kind of tend to ramble on a little bit.
So they've asked me to try and keep it short
and show all those features to you in under three minutes.
So let's set a timer and see if I can do it.
Okay. So the first and most obvious change
that they've made is they've gotten new sizes.
So this is my original 31 liter.
We don't need that anymore.
This is my new 31 liter, which I'm very excited about.
They've still got the 21 liter
and then they've got a bigger one.
This is the 41 liter.
And then there's, where did I put that?
Oh, you know what?
I know where it is.
This is the PRVKE lite, the smallest of the bunch.
Now the 21, the 31 and the 41 all have the same features.
So we can talk about those altogether.
But the light has some things that are slightly different
in order to keep it smaller and less expensive.
So we're going to save some of those for later.
Okay. Actually, I may have spoken too soon.
There is one thing that separates the 41 liter
from the 31 and 21 liters.
And that is that it can hold the deep camera cubes
the ones that WANDRD made for the Fernweh
Backpack, if you're like me and you like to put your camera
in sideways so that you can grab the grip from the top
this is super handy.
It just gives you a little bit more clearance
and you can fit a little bit more stuff vertically
in the bag by vertically.
I mean, vertically, when it's laid down, opened
up like how you grab all the stuff out
of it on this back panel, we're seeing brand new materials
a new layout, and a comfier setup, essentially
designed to make it more comfortable to wear as well
as the straps are redesigned.
Again, new materials, more comfy to wear another big one
for me is the new chest or sternum strap.
It's more functional than the previous design.
It's easier to get on
and off and move around where you need it.
And it's completely detachable on the previous model
you would attach it on your chest.
So there would be a big plastic piece right there, but now
because it attaches on either side without anything
in the middle, it's more comfortable to wear.
They've updated the passport pocket
so that it's more hidden.
And it's bigger now.
So you don't have to fold your plane ticket to
get it in there.
And it's more hidden because it's hiding right
behind the brand new luggage pass through.
We've now got stronger magnets in the tote handles as well
as a graphic on it that says wander more worry less
which is like their catchphrase
which is I think pretty cool.
And that's all just on the outside of the bag.
Once we had inside, we're going to see some new pockets
on the back of the laptop and tablet sleeve
some extra organization where you can put things
like your pens or your SD cards or your cables
or whatever you need super handy to have that little bit
of extra organization on the inside opposite of that.
We've got our zippers to get into the roll top
from the clam shell opening, but something is new.
They flipped the way that you undo it.
And it's a rip open.
So you can get in there really easy and quickly.
And speaking of that, rip away opening
it's actually now the pocket, the fleece pocket
that's on the top where you put like your glasses
or your phone or whatever you want in there.
Previously, there was a pocket that would kind
of move around inside the roll top.
And sometimes it could kind of get tucked
into weird positions.
Now you won't have that problem
because it's always in the same position.
Also they've taken away the flap that went
over the camera cube compartment.
There, it wasn't something that I ever used.
I always kind of had to tuck it away
and it would just take up a little bit of space.
So I'm glad that they got rid of that.
And other than that, the 41 31
and 21 liter are pretty much what we've come to know
and love from WANDRD PRVKE.
But I mentioned earlier that one of my favorite things
about this new update was the PRVKE.
- You have acquired the PRVKE light one minute
and 40 seconds of bonus time has been added to your clock.
Don't screw it up this time, DUNNA.
- Okay. So this is the PRVKE light
and it is the teeniest cutest.
Oh my gosh, it's windy.
Why is it so windy?
What is going on?
Okay. So this is the PRVKE light
and it is just the cutest little thing that I've ever seen.
In fact, I need some help naming them.
So if you want to leave a comment down
below a name that would be as cute as this bag looks
obviously the main feature of the PRVKE light is the fact
that it's a smaller version.
It's better for either smaller people.
If you're not six foot one, like I am
or if you're just looking for something that's more
of a day bag, something that doesn't necessarily
need to hold that much stuff that being said
they have changed some things to make it
so that it still holds a whole lot of stuff.
I've been using this bag for my daily shooting
and had no problem taking everything that I needed.
And the reason that they were able to do that is
because this no longer uses an external camera cube.
So it doesn't take up that extra space.
All of the Velcro dividers and stuff can be put right
into the bag without the need for the extra cube.
So this basically holds as much camera gear
as the 21 leader does, but
at a smaller footprint and it's less expensive.
Now, other than the camera cube
there are a couple of things that have changed on this.
One of the cool features is
that the interior color actually matches the exterior
on the light.
That's something that we haven't seen
on the other PRVKEs before, and also
in order to make it less expensive and save some space.
They've taken out some of the things like the side pocket
and the bottom pocket for the rain fly things
that make it a little bit more economical.
But like I said, this thing still holds a lot of stuff.
It's been super handy over the last couple of weeks here
the day that I got it, my wife saw it
and saw that it was a smaller bag
and immediately thought she was going to get it
but I'm hesitant to give it up.
All right.
So that's a quick look at some
of the new features and functions that we've got
on the brand new WANDRD PRVKE lineup.
But of course, I want to hear from you.
So leave a comment down below
and let me know what your new favorite feature is.
If you want to do some more research
and look more into these bags or pick one up
there'll be links down in the description.
Huge thank you to WANDRD for sponsoring this video.
Huge thank you to you for watching and I'll see
- Next time birds really want to be in the video.
