A rather militant and functional line for photographers has been made available through this collaboration. Recognizing the tech-focused needs of the medium, MDLR taps Ryan Allan — an individual that has made a name for himself as a skateboarding and fashion photographer.
The capsule is heavily compartmentalized, putting emphasis on the need for organization before anything else. There is a total of three distinct silhouettes offered to consumers through this line for photographers — including a tote, a messenger bag and a more compact one meant for smaller cameras or film. Each has been priced at $390 USD, $256 USD, and $78 USD, respectively. In addition, MDLR and Ryan Allan make the silhouettes available in two colors — black and sand, with a contrasting orange interior.
