Crumpler Barney Rustle Blanket + Bucket

admin — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 04:14:03 +0000

I’ve been a fan of Crumpler bags for Years. Having owned countless since 2003. My recent purchase was a Bucket for what was, my daily bag, a yellow and Red Barney Rustle Blanket. The bucket transformed the messenger bag into a over the shoulder Camera Bag, Well padded and protected from the day to day bumps of travel. The bucket swallows a mammoth amount of gear yet remains protected. I was able to fit my Gripped Canon 20D, 3 x Flashes with Remote Triggers as well as the Brikc, Canon’s 24-70 F2.8L lens and the Kit 70-300 Lens.

Custom Crumpler Barney Rustle Blanket Cats Bag

I’m a big fan of both the Geelong Football Club and Crumpler Bags. Having a Crumpler Barney Rustle Blanket as a daily bag, I decided it needed the pow factor of the GFC Cat! I put an ordinary image together combining the logo on a photo of my current Bag and emailed it off to the fine people at the Crumpler Custom Bag shop. The mocked up a design and we picked the custom colour scheme. Once approved it took about 2 weeks to make. Sure it cost a bit more than the standard bag, but I know there are only 2 bags out there holding the Famous Geelong Cats Logo.

The Goonies

Another great 80′s classic, timeless that just doesn’t get enough air time on mainstream TV. If you see this on DVD, Buy it. It is well worth it. Data and his gadgets just keep you laughing, Chunk’s Truffle Shuffle, A youthful Sean Astin (Star of a 90′s classic, Toy Soldiers) and who could forget Sloth!
