The Shimoda Side Street 28 Starter Kit combines a modern urban aesthetic with practical, photography-focused design. With a slim roll‑top form and 28-litre capacity, it delivers the space you need while maintaining a compact, low-profile silhouette—perfect for commuting, travel, or street photography.

This Starter Kit includes the versatile Medium Top Loader insert, which fits securely inside the pack or can be worn separately as a chest rig, hip pack, or sling. This modular approach allows you to customise your carry setup depending on your environment or workflow.

Shimoda’s Capture Strap system provides a comfortable and secure way to carry your camera on the harness, with built-in compatibility for third-party clips and padding behind the mount. Smart storage features like a zippered phone pocket and hydration or radio cable routing help keep you organised on the go.

Inside the pack, a dedicated padded sleeve protects laptops up to 16 inches. The expandable roll-top lets you increase internal space when needed—ideal for stashing extra layers, personal items, or additional gear. Exterior features include side bottle pockets, a tripod holder, and a slim document sleeve.

Despite its expanded functionality, the Side Street 28 remains lightweight at just 1.9 kg and is backed by Shimoda’s 5-year warranty, giving you peace of mind wherever your photography takes you.
