Great Performance and Build Quality
on September 10, 2019
Posted by: Ric
Travelled internationally for 18 days and the Travel Backpack performed exceptionally. Had too much weight in the checked bag and to avoid the excessive weight charge, I opted to remove the extra weight from the roller bag and add it to the TBP, and check it also. Had no issues when I retrieved it. On the return trip it was loaded with a stuffed med. and sm. packing cube and a load 5L Sling, a rain jacket, some books an iPad, and a portable speaker. It was expanded on the return trip and still had no issues carrying it on the plane. Stood in the CBP checkpoint for. 2 hrs with no issue accept for standing in line for 2 hours. Bag performed very well as did the packing cubes. Great performance and quality. Medium Pcube had 4 pairs of jeans & 4 long sleeve Henley's as a reference. Heavy duty stuff. 5LSling - Mōvi, iPad, Moment wide angle, maker charger, Extra iPhone case, cables and small misc.

Travel Backpack and Camera Cubes
on September 9, 2019
Posted by: Scott
I been using the Travel Backpak and Camera Cubes for about 4 weeks now. I have a variety of cubes and backpacks, the Peak Design system is far and above the my favorite, best designed and most highly crafted of anything I've seen on the market. The multi-layer dividers make it the perfect system for mirrorless too - giving you the ability to stack small prime lenses in the case without sacrificing valuable space. The Medium / Small cube combo fits perfectly within the pack leaving just a bit of room at the top for a smaller item like sunglasses.
PRO TIP: I keep a second lens, my 100mm filter kit, remote triggers, batteries and cards, in the small cube. Adding an anchor link to each end, I can attach my Slide Lite and have all of that gear at my disposal once I'm on location.

The perfect bag
on September 8, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
This is probably my best friend from now on! It have the perfect size and construction. I'm very happy with the product so far. The only thing I would consider is to change the zippers to YKK. But the zoom zippers seems to be ok too! Thank you, guys!

Awesome bag
on September 5, 2019

I've previously own the Peak Design 20L everyday bag and try to use it for a camera bag and a everyday bag, but it was too small and cramp for all the stuff I have in the bag. When the Travel line announce on kickstarter, I ordered it immediately. This bag is the best bag I've ever use and own, the adjustable size of the bag is super handy and the cubes accessories that compatible with the bag are just amazing.

A beast

I've just finished my first trip with this one, couldn't have gone better.
Managed to pack everything I needed for a two-week trip. I took this backpack everywhere, super comfortable and incredibly durable... to give you an idea, this backpack protected my partner's back... we fell off a motorcycle with it, not a single scratch, just a bit of dirt we've cleaned off (goes without saying... don't try it).

Pros:
- Practical
- Comfortable
- Durable
- Perfectly fits carry-on size, airline failed to find a reason to charge me for it, and they tried hard.
- Works fantastically well with packing cubes and tech-pouch

Cons:
- A bit heavier than I'd like
- (Not really a con) too big to be used as an everyday backpack
- A bit heavier than I'd like

All things considered, I love this backpack.

The perfect and best travel backpack ever ... but not for hiking
on August 27, 2019
Posted by: Henri
Been looking for the perfect backpack since a ºlong time. The one that does everything. And this one is awesome. It's very functional, customizable, very well constructed. They've though of everything. Everything you ever wished is there and everything is so well organized and accessible in seconds. I really think this is the best travel backpack actually on the market.
Perfect for travelling, but it is not made for hiking. The shoulder straps aren't padded enough, the waist belt doesn't give much support, a lot of the weight is far from your body and you back & shoulders are getting tired very quickly.
During a trip, I had an 8 hours stop in Amsterdam. On purpose. I wanted to visit and photograph this beautiful city. So I walked around during 5-6 hours with this backpack. Ok it was heavy, because all my photo gear was in there + iPad + some clothes + accessories + toiletry bag. Everything, as I said, accessible in seconds, a real pleasure, but after walking for a few hours my back was broken and my shoulders were hurting me. That all said I'm really happy with the purchase.
