About Billingham:

Billingham are a family owned company, manufacturing camera bags for the world’s photographers since 1973 alongside a range of leisure and laptop bags. All bags are made in the West Midlands area of England, a region famous for manufacturing. A core reason for Billingham’s longevity is the fact that from the start, the Billingham family were determined that their products would always be made to the very highest standards from the best available materials to provide high levels of protection for their valued contents.

A notable feature of Billingham camera bags is that they are made from a distincive 3-layer waterpoof canvas that never needs reproofing. They also feature genuine top grain leather and solid brass details.

Like any premium product, the quality of materials, design and craftsmanship that goes into creating a Billingham means that it represents a significant investment. It’s important that they don’t just look beautiful, but that they do their job of protecting equipment wherever they are and whatever they’re being used for – year in and year out.

I have been using Billingham bags for over 30 years. They are my absolute favourite camera bag, always with me wherever I am working

Today I received my 6th Billingham bag in 25 years, a beautiful Hadley Small Pro to carry a Leica M, four lenses and accessories. I have previously got an Alice, Aveo pouches, a Hadley Pro, a Pola Airline and finally this beauty. It's a pleasure seeing the small improvements to the designs (i.e. the new Hadleys sport removable shoulder straps) while maintaining the legendary quality. Even non photographers look at them as something special; made for conossieurs. Once in a hotel elevator a person couldn't resist asking me where I had purchased it and when I mentioned a famous photography store, the guy said: "I'm not a photograher but I'd love one as a carry on bag for travel"; I then showed him the removable insert of my original Hadley Pro and the man said, "I'm definitely getting one, what did you say the name of the store was?". Sadly B&H no longer carries Billingham; gladly, my new bag cost me here the same it would have cost me on their online store, or slightly less, thanks to the better carrier fares. Nevertheless, I shall remain a fan of the brand as the quality, service, design and value is par none. My next order --that I regret not having thought of at the time of my last- will be a couple of large Aveos for lenses and a couple of new straps for my almost 20 year old Hadley Pro.

Bought as a Christmas present for my other half who advised this is the Rolls Royce of camera bags. It certainly looks and feels top quality, would recommend if you’re looking for an investment piece.

The quality of construction and attention to detail is without equal. The design is timeless and very adaptable to the evolving options in gear. I've owned many Billingham camera bags and still have the originals from the early 1970s. The removable inserts are an indispensable part of the system for me and add to the flexibility when preparing for a shoot. I can never say enough about the company, they're the best!

I am a long-time fan of Billingham bags. Your beautiful & high-quality bags have always remained the best. Customer service was outstanding in helping me select the right bag for my mirrorless system. Delivery of my bag from the UK to the US was miraculously fast and at a reasonable rate. Unfortunately the return of my first bag was extremely expensive.

Hi Harriet, Thanks for your feedback. If it helps you can now purchase from our American distributor at https://billingham.com/ They ship from California which should make returns much, much cheaper. Thanks again! Billingham Team

Buying this Weekender Duffel Bag was probably my most satisfying purchase of travel/camera bags ever. The bag is wonderfully simple; who wants complications when rushing to get away on time. One might say the bag is expensive; perhaps it is. But, then, one might compare its price with those finished leather bags; you know the ones, the ones that make one think that the owner is more interested in showing his wealth than stuffing his underwear. Of course, there is appearance. I want my duffel bag to have that finished air, with the clean lines of planned simplicity and the hint of a retro flair, kind of like 1942 or, perhaps, earlier. Yes, there is the comparison of canvas with leather fittings versus just leather. I prefer the canvas.

I use my Hadley Pro for carrying a couple of spare lenses or take out the insert and drop in my D5 and 24-70. It’s comfortable to sling over your shoulder all day and reasonably unobtrusive. I use it daily and the quality is excellent

One of the best camera bags and accessories I've purchased in a long time. The padded base fits snugly into my classic 225 and was well worth the price paid.

The product is as described ---- constructed of excellent materials and well made. My only compliant is that the fasteners are a little strong to operate.

High quality camera bag that is 20 years old! It still looks great, and I was surprised a replacement padded liner was still available. Very good and responsive customer service. This bag has been a great investment. Cheers, Peter

Excellent quality, British made items which carry your gear in real style. Billingham bags are so well made and the service is top notch. I was out on a trip the other day in a massive storm and my Hadley large kept all my kit safe and dry. Expensive bags but great value.
