The Shimoda Sidecountry 28 Starter Kit is designed for photographers who spend more time exploring than organizing gear. Built for hiking, mountain travel, and outdoor adventures, it delivers a lightweight carrying system without sacrificing protection or accessibility.

This Starter Kit includes the Shimoda Medium Top Loader, providing a complete modular camera carry solution right out of the box. The Top Loader protects your camera equipment inside the backpack during transport, then quickly converts into a shoulder bag, sling, or hip pack when you want to travel even lighter. This flexibility allows you to adapt your carry system to different shooting situations without changing bags.

Exclusive side access lets you reach your camera quickly while keeping the backpack streamlined and lightweight. The removable padded laptop sleeve protects computers up to 16 inches when needed and can be removed to reduce weight on demanding hikes.

Comfort is equally important. Shimoda’s signature shoulder straps feature compatibility with camera clips, integrated zippered phone pockets, expandable accessory storage, and hidden routing for hydration systems or two-way radio microphones.

Constructed from lightweight recycled Cordura® re/cor™ RN66 fabric with a durable water-repellent finish, the Sidecountry 28 is built for challenging environments. A removable rain cover provides additional protection when weather conditions become severe, making this backpack an ideal companion for landscape, wildlife, travel, and adventure photographers.
