HEX Introduces Camera-ready Ranger Sling XL

HEX, a fashion accessory brand, introduces the Ranger Sling XL, expanding its range of discreet, street-ready DSLR/camera bags.

To develop the Sling XL, HEX worked with photographers and reflected customer feedback, crafting a new design from the ground up. The new Sling XL is versatile within the Ranger lineup – larger than a traditional sling yet smaller than a backpack – and can fit a 13-inch laptop, multiple bodies, lenses, a drone and more. They also can be custom configured to fit a change of clothes for weekend trips.

“The Ranger Collection conveys the essence of HEX as a brand: functional, sharp, and street-ready styles that are all designed with feedback from creators, and we’re really excited to be introducing a new level of versatility with the Sling XL,” said Trent Valladares, HEX founder and CEO. “A key feature of the new sling is the padded compartment that accommodates a 13-inch laptop, a huge deal for a bag with such a small footprint. We’ve also incorporated our patented Clamshell zipper system, which allows for multiple access zones depending on preference. The Ranger Sling XL is a really unique size that we think photographers will find perfect for mid-size carry needs.”

The Ranger Sling XL features a generous organizer on the outside with the brand’s signature faux-fur-lined phone pocket. The back is padded air-mesh for breathability and there are cinch straps on the bottom for a tripod or jacket. Inside features EVA padded dividers that can be configured to fit every photographer’s needs.

All of these features are wrapped in a water-resistant, ballistic nylon Sling – complete with a hideaway rainfly for even more weather protection.

The Ranger Sling XL is proof of HEX’s ability to bridge the gap between fashion and tech-driven functionality, drawing on decades of experience in art and culture and channeling that to equip the next generation of creators. ​
