2021 New and Updated WANDRD PRVKE 31 First Look!

The Wandrd PRVKE is one of the most popular camera bags in the world and one of my favourite bags in general. It's got the looks and the functionality to be one of the best and this year, Wandrd have updated it to be even better. This is the 31L version and my ideal size.

Great video, one of the best reviews I’ve seen. Well done.

[@Youknowthebo]

Cool video. I'm waiting for my bag to review as well. Love my old Prvke 31L.

[@uttam1405]

Finally a proper first review! Nice one mate. Going to grab the 31L black version now. Cheers

[@CJYing]

Awesome, enjoy it 😃

[@Lexmouth]

Well done! Great review, thanks a lot for the comparison. 10/10

[@MaC.Istanaz]

1) buy a pgytech mono 156 dolors with set 2) shoulder case for lens is very important for me 3) on airport tsa free check for pc i dont want people to see inside my bag that cover was important

I just ordered this bag two days ago and this is the best review on this bag!

[@jean-paulloa86]

Thank you so much for this great review ! Peace !

Thanks for the support! ✌️✌️✌️

Already ordered one Such a nice review Love the comparison thanks Love this design

[@CJYing]

Thanks for watching!

[@davidaleks]

Hello from Paris (France), I really like your videos and thanks to this one, I loved this bag. Nevertheless, before buying it I would like to know if it can be used as a backpack for everyday life (storing a computer, taking public transportation, etc). I mean, I'm not a photographer but I loved the design of this bag. If not, would you have a model or a brand to recommend? Thanks for your help

[@MichelleUretsky]

I love how the band in the back for luggage hides the zipper for the secret pocket.

[@FridaFriz]

"..its gonna be fine if you get caught out in the rain. Or like Pina coladas" lol - good one :D

[@YuiSenpai]

naisu! finally I can make my final decision even if it's a bit pricey but I hope the bag can serve me well 🤙

[@GoDuffdaddy]

more comfortable to the Peak Everyday pack? I find my Peak pretty hard on the back as the padding is non existent.

[@Khoelhutchinson]

I love to know if this was more comfy also.

[@AvaAndWill]

Just got my WANDRD PRVKE 31L Aegean Blue Photography Bundle after waiting for 7+ months!!! I’m so excited to use it on our next travel destination! Great video! 🙂

[@CJYing]

Thanks for watching and enjoy the travels!

[@jettagozoom]

Great review, really like your demeanor and thoughtful pace. I have the original 31L PVRKE for my flight / work bag. In general it is all I need with enough organization. The v2 looks nice with the added interior storage pockets. But after much use, I finally give up on the bag for two reasons: 1) the tarpaulin material is a bit cold. Another option for a fabric with a warmer hand would be appreciated. A black-camo corduroy would be perfect. And 2) the placement of magnetic handles just don’t work for me. Having two handles is a nuisance. Picking the bag up quickly makes you have to constantly grab the other to pair them up. All of my MissionWorkshop bags have a single well placed handle at the top, which I use often.

[@logiman]

Excellent review. Many thanks.

[@natehawthorne4828]

Subscribed! Literally nobody has content out for the new 41L bag atm. I have the old version of the 31L PRVKE. I mainly use it for my camera gear but I was considering using it as a travel bag when i do my 30 day trip to japan next year. I was skeptical if it would be enough then I come to find out they now have a 41L bag so maybe that would be a bit better for the long trip. I haven't seen much info on it. Even on the official website. Can be a carry-on on a flight? idk. Looking forward to seeing your review on it!

[@CJYing]

It'll be coming soon!

[@seibu1]

Great video and review!

[@CJYing]

Thanks mate!

[@williamrima]

I regret the zipper who can separated the big section and the laptop section... :/ same for the new shoulder strap because we lost 2 parts where I put some carabiner... honestly If i need to buy the new one I will add the zipper and something to put my carabiner...

[@darksheer6497]

Just received my 31L Prvke bag, after waiting over 7 months for delivery. This is absolutely one of the worst designs I've seen for a camera bag - especially with the premium price point. I submitted mine for return within 15 minutes of taking delivery. The big thing you'll notice, the camera access port is on the wrong side of the bag for right handed people. You have to sling the bag over your left shoulder to access the camera port. Also, a full frame Mirror less camera will be a struggle to get in and out easily. Zippers on the outside of the bag are nice, but almost every zipper requires you to hold and pull the bag in certain ways for them to work properly. Even the quick pull open access for the compartment doesn't work without having to pull and tug the bag. Lastly, the bag with the photography cube won't even handle 1 full frame camera with lens attached and two additional zoom lenses.

[@michelterral5907]

are you sure ?

[@darksheer6497]

@@michelterral5907 yup

[@acksam]

Really good upgrades IMO. And of cos credit to you for the detailed product showcase! but i would like to ask if its possible to squeeze in a 16" Mac laptop into the laptop sleeves?

[@CJYing]

Definitely will fit a 16 inch MBP!

[@NikCan66]

Excellent review

[@HusbandnWifeDuo]

I was researching 31L and found it to be Canadian $425. I think it is on the high side. So for now, I think I will continue with my Lowepro Flipside Trek 450 for day long hikes and photography gear and Gregory Zulu 65L for backpacking plus photography gear.

[@jan.tichavsky]

I just got the same Flipside Trek 450, before that I had Flipside 400 for about 8 years of heavy usage. For some $180 I already got camera compartment and rain cover. With WANDRD you have to pay more for the empty shell and on top of that buy the camera cube and also $34 for basic rain cover. Why is it not included? Downside is that Lowepro has fewer of these well placed pockets and doesn't have expandable top. But it has large pockets on both side instead of the back access pocket which I don't care about, the back access only is also safer way to carry my gear.

[@HusbandnWifeDuo]

@@jan.tichavsky Exactly! I have same observations. Flipside Trek 450 tends to carry much more than one simple look.

[@ivo_huth]

On another video it looks like the interior of the green bag is also some kind of green, in your video it looks black. I'd rather prefer a lighter colour to find your stuff easier in the dark.

[@tuuthreee]

great video! does it still have the hidden bottom compartment (used for store the bag rain cover in the old version)?

[@CJYing]

Yes it does!

[@sashinger5230]

Great video! Is it comfortable to wear on longer distances since it has no load-lift straps?

[@CJYing]

Very comfortable to wear on long days/distances. Especially with the chest strap

[@FlyinRyanProductions406]

I love my lens cap holder. Lol. 😬

[@CJYing]

😅😅😅

[@metalmick99]

A nice review, although I found some of the abrupt editing a bit distracting. It seems a great backpack and you provided a some very useful information. That said, Wandrd charges extra for straps, rain cover, even a waist belt all of which I think ought to be included. Their website lists a weight for the backpack which I presume doesn't include the camera cube and I'd be curious as to what the weight is with the belt, cube, and rain cover. (I won't trust my gear to the brutes who call themselves "baggage handlers" on the airlines, and prefer to take it in the cabin as carry on luggage, so weight is important.)

[@ZannParker]

I'm so upset it doesn't come with any dividers! they are out of stock of the cubes and so I ordered the bag, not knowing its useless without the cube. ridiculous

[@Georgiaboy_]

Just got my new PRVKE and was wondering where the internal flap went... I am not sure I like that just because if I am ever in a rush and somehow drag it while it's open before the top is closed my cameras my slip out. Or if they are falling all over the place in the bag if Im running around.

[@Meducation101]

Outstanding videos! Thx for sharing, CJ! 😁

[@CJYing]

Thanks mate! 🙌

[@mrdavidzoltankiss]

I am torn between 21l vs 31l with pro cube. - Mavic Pro 2 - Sony a7siii - sigma 24-70 2.8 -sony 16-35 2.8 - zeiss 85 1.8 - dji ronin rs 2 - couple of small accessories and microphone Which one I should get? Thanks.

[@CJYing]

I’d go with the 31L a with that sort of gear!

[@gerardvirgo5755]

Hi! Is the 21L prvke too big for a guy with small body and 5’4 tall.

[@orlandoricardo2328]

Definitely I decide 31 L

[@mariusmlster3450]

Nice review! Do you think there is enough space in the bag for a light packer doing backpacking?:)

[@CJYing]

If it's for day trips, yes. If you're hoping to backpack longer periods then no, it won't work even if you're a light packer

[@geoffrey8063]

Many thanks for the review. Do you know if the 31l can take a pro-sized or gripped body? Or does it require the 41l?

[@CJYing]

With a battery grip attached, I’d stick with the 41L

[@lilymetcalfe97]

Is the upgrade to the 31 worth it? Noticing now I’m getting more gear and thinking about switching

[@CJYing]

31L certainly gives you extra flexibility if you’re starting to accumulate more gear

[@kimibrowne4440]

Kiwi here, nice review bro... :-)

[@CJYing]

Thanks bro 😎

[@msmoni13]

Any bag recommendations for a female photographer as versatile as this one?

[@CJYing]

Have you considered the prvke lite? Or perhaps the 21L version?

[@keithabados4826]

Does it fit under airplane seats specially in North America?

[@horace0119]

Checked Wandrd's website and it says the weight of 31L is 3.4lbs, does anyone know if it’s included the camera cube? Thanks for the nice review.

[@chadchilders3954]

If it doesn't, I don't think the cube will add much weight.

[@NicolasGomez97]

Do you need to open full clamshell mode to get the laptop/ipad out?

[@CJYing]

Not necessarily, you could just partially open the zip from the top without opening the whole flap

Problem with the wandrd bags is the interior color. Camera gear is black or dark colored and the inside of the bag is black as well. Wish the inside of the bag is another color e.g. blue or yellow
