This new premium pouch series gets its design sense from the high-octane style of the automotive world and its protective qualities from being a Lowepro carrying solution.

(Sebastopol, CA, September 10, 2010) – Lowepro, a product design company that builds protective gear for photography equipment and portable electronics, introduces the sporty and sleek Munich series of protective compact camera and shoot & share video pouches.

"Our Munich design offers a sophisticated blend of form and function," said Treg Tyler, Lowepro worldwide marketing director. "On the exterior, it features bold contrasts, tactile materials and premium fittings; on the interior, it includes cushioned and impact-resistant protection for a variety of camera and video hardware," he added.

The two-tone perforated panel is embedded with PE board to safeguard gear from abrasion. Brushed tricot lining protects an LCD screen and lens from scratches. Munich pouches include an interior slash pocket (also lined in soft tricot), providing dedicated space for extra memory, ID or credit cards. Dual zipper pulls offer easy access and a no-drop gusset keeps a camera from slipping out. Attach a Munich pouch to a belt or strap via its integrated belt loop, or wear it with the optional shoulder strap.

The Munich series is available in three sizes and three colorways: Munich 10, Munich 20 and Munich 30 in Black/Red, Black/Silver and Black.
