Ruggard Outrigger 65 Reviews

Great Value

By Warren
Rated 5 out of 5

I was looking for a reasonable solution to pack my gear for a photo trip. You can’t beat this Ruggard Backpack. I also was looking for something that would fit under an airline seat and this fits the bill. It will only be used occasionally so this is perfect for my use case.

Great for the price - easily fits my Sigma 150-600 c

Large enough to store my 150-600 with body attached. Feels well made and sturdy. Not the most comfortable to wear all day, but for outings of a couple of hours, it’s great.

How does the backpack handle when it's not full—when you only want to carry a light load from time to time?
Asked by: Carolyn
The Ruggard Outrigger 65 DSLR Backpack (Black) has detachable dividers. If you need to rearrange them to accommodate a smaller camera setup, the bag will still feel balanced.
