Lowepro Santiago

Santiago, Camera Pouch (Sebastopol, CA, September 10, 2010) – Lowepro, the leading brand of protective gear for photography equipment and portable electronics, announces the launch of its Santiago pouch series. Designed to appeal with their modern, sculpted and distinctive look, these pouches also provide maximum impact protection for compact and pro compact cameras.

"We've had great success with our molded-foam pouch collections," said Treg Tyler, Lowepro Worldwide director of marketing. "With the Santiago series, we've taken our purpose-built design a step further by combining a unique hard and ribbed shell with dense EVA foam padding to create a product that offers superior protection from bumps and abrasion," he added.

The Santiago series lightweight, yet sturdy pouches feature an interior camera strap keeper—crafted of stretchy elastic—to secure hardware with a snug fit. Soft, brushed tricot lining helps protect the LCD screen and lens from dust and scratches. Additional details include: interior slip pocket for a spare memory card; dual zipper pulls; a low-profile belt loop, plus a detachable and adjustable shoulder strap to offer multiple carrying options.

The Santiago series of pouches is available in three sizes (10, 20 and 30) and three colors: Arctic Blue, Grey and Black.
