f-Stop Loka UL

HAVEN'T RATED
The Loka UL is designed for photographers who need to get more gear further into the mountains under their own power. F-stop has carefully cut weight in key areas to keep it robust—our test unit was shamefully abused for a good part of a year and has shown only minor wear. As always, F-stop's great modular system makes it easy to fit your gear perfectly. And, details like the side-mounting the waist strap buckle to make riding s bike or motorcycle or horse more comfortable are really nice touches. If you're an action sports shooter or someone whose landscape work requires pushing into remote areas, the Loka UL is perfect.
the good
- Light

the not so good
