Love the number of ways you can get in.

I love the number of ways I can get into this bag. You can use the internal divider or fold it down for maximum capacity. Straps feel comfortable and have a unique way to hide away. I've been wearing it around the house preparing for the day when we can all travel again.

You'll need a time machine to find a better backpack...
on October 24, 2020

You need this backpack. The only way you'll find a better travel backpack is if you acquire a time machine to travel into the future and buy the next version of this pack from Peak Design. If you travel with a laptop, this pack pairs nicely with the PD Tech Pouch for all those dingly dongles ya got floating around. I travel around and teach SketchUp (not so much in 2020, though), and this pack has been really great for keeping all the things in places where I can find/get to them when needed.
This pack is also surprisingly comfortable when loaded up. It sounds ridiculous to write this, but I have seriously considered using this pack on multi-day backpacking trips because my North Face 40L isn't nearly as comfortable. Perhaps PD will branch out and make something purpose-built for navigating dirt trails as well. Anyway, if you're still reading this... you've already wasted too much time not having this backpack.

Totally cool

I am a collector of backpacks and travel luggage and I already own a lot of PD products. I also baked the travel backpack campaign where I limited myself to taking the backpack accessories only and finally decided to place the order for the big boy. So I'm using it with its accessories and everything works beautifully. I'm using without its accessories and everything works perfectly too, except having to bother myself a minute more to better organize the space (I did this only once, why should I bother myself?) I love the fact that the backpack can change the size thanks to the zips and the clip which allows me to go out for a photo session without seeming to leave for Antarctica. On the other hand, the possibility to expand the backpack by travelling by train or by car allows me to carry more stuff without having the hassle of checking in.
I love the way to open it because it allows me to immediately take my beloved Macbook and I'm able to use it wherever I am. I'm waiting for the right time to buy the tripod because it perfectly fits the side pocket. Of course, I would add. With regards to the photographic issue, I use the Cube Small that I easily hooked to the backpack. Good job PD! Keep it up! Greetings from Italy

First Trip with travel bag
on October 18, 2020

I just completed my first trip with my new Peak Design travel bag. I took the Amtrak from Chicago to El Paso and am now flying back to DC. The travel bag is extremely easy to use, holds my electronics, clothing, and all the necessities of travel. Love this bag and would highly recommend to others.

Packing made easy!
on October 6, 2020

Long story short: This bag is phenomenal at its job, especially used in connection with the packing cubes. You can't go wrong with this bag. It's easy to carry, fits almost every need, and is extremely durable. If you're on the fence, buy the bag.
I have had this bag for years and it has stood up to the test of time. I use it as a weekender or as a carry on for longer trips. My current system is this bag with the wash pouch, small packing cube, and 2 medium packing cubes. This will hold everything you could need for a weekend getaway. The straps pack away easily and it carries the weight very well. After a long trek, my shoulders are never sore and I can easily access anything I need. The expandable/collapsible feature is a packing life saver. I trust Peak Design with everything they make and this bag is no exception. Do further you a favor and buy this bag!

best travel/home backpack ever!
on October 6, 2020

I love my PD travel backpack. I got the sage color thinking of all the dust and dirt that won't be as visible and to keep the bag cooler when I'm in hotter environment. It is very comfortable and so durable. I've felt very comfortable to put my bag down wherever so I can focus on my shooting. It is easy to clean as well! Having the ability to convert the bag into whatever your excursion requires makes this the perfect bag for me. I love the expandability as well. Many people have also commented that it's a very nice looking bag. The company speaks for itself with their products. It's like walking with an advertisement due to just passing inquiries. Highly recommend this bag and the packing cubes!
