The Packrat Bag by Karen Day

No, this is not a politically incorrect Halloween costume. This is the mother of all hybrid tote/camera bags. The new Lomography Packrat holds all your creative needs (not to mention a few other things); it's even got enough space and durability for your tripod and an interior pocket meant for cameras.
Just to show you how much they believe in their design, they enlisted London-based photographer Adam Scott to road test it by capturing eight exceptional Icelanders as they went about their daily biz. Its unisex style and all around good looks (we like the giant Cyrillic Lomo graphic) make it a winning gift option. The Packrat's available in two sizes and starts at $40 at the Lomo store.
