The VEO METRO Collection is a range of bags that are designed to be lightweight, sophisticated and stylish, ideal for the Photographer who wants to blend into city life when travelling.
BACKPACKS
The collection includes a range of lightweight, large capacity, comfortable backpacks for larger kits for those longer trips where you need to carry all your kit, featuring a lower camera compartment and an upper daypack section.
The largest is the VEO City B30L which is a lightweight 30 litre backpack that can fit a full frame camera with up to 5 lenses (up to 70-200mm f2.8). The VEO City B25L which is smaller 25 litre backpack that can fit a full frame camera with up to 4 lenses (up to 70-200mm f2.8). Both can fit up to a 16" laptop.
Each backpack comes set up for full rear access and fast side access, and has a removable daypack compartment at the top which also features fast rear access, with multiple pockets for all the bits and pieces you need for a successful photoshoot.
For maximum security on the go, there is also a hidden rear pocket underneath the trolley attachment strap on the rear of the bag for a passport, cash and other important documents, with a separate hidden Smart Tracker pocket for AirTags or Tile trackers so that you can easily locate your bag if it is misplaced.

SHOULDER BAGS
The VEO METRO Collection also includes range of small, lightweight shoulder bags for when you want to travel light with just your camera and 2-3 lenses. This also includes the hidden Smart Tracker pocket for AirTags or Tile trackers so that you can easily locate your bag if it is misplaced.
These are available in a choice of two sizes.
The largest is the VEO City S9L which is a lightweight 9 litre shoulder bag that can fit a full frame camera with up to 3 lenses (up to 70-200mm f2.8), while the smaller VEO City S9L can fit a full frame camera with up to 2 lenses (up to 24-70mm f2.8).

LAPTOP BAGS
The VEO METRO Collection also includes a lightweight laptop bag that can be used as a computer sleeve to protect up to a 16” laptop at home or packed into a larger bag, or as a shoulder bag for your daily commute
SMARTPHONE POUCHES
Finally, the VEO METRO Collection includes lightweight dual compartment smartphone pouch which allows you to explore with your camera in your hand so you don’t miss those fleeting shots, while keeping valuables such as your smartphone and passport, and essentials such as spare batteries and SD cards, safe and secure.
These can also be used to carry a compact camera, as shown in this video with an Olympus Tough TG5 kit:
DESIGN
The VEO METRO Collection is designed to look sleek and modern, and comes in a choice of four colours.
In addition to the features and design, the VEO METRO Collection is designed to protect your kit and deliver years of use. All the bags are well padded and constructed with a lightweight, yet tough 300D polyester fabric that delivers a textured appearance and a tactile feel.
The fabric is designed for heavy duty applications with excellent water resistance and UV protection, enabling it to retain its colour and structural integrity over the years. This performance is enhanced by a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) Coating on both sides of the fabric and highly water-resistant SBS zippers, ensuring your kit stays protected in the city and beyond, with a rain cover for the wettest days.
So if you’re looking for a stylish and lightweight camera backpack or shoulder bag, with a matching computer sleeve or smartphone pouch that's at home in any city, the VEO Metro Collection is a great choice.
