Great Bag
on September 5, 2023

I own two of these bags. One I use for my Camera equipment when I travel and the other for my Amateur radio equipment when I go portable. Fits all my stuff. Thinking about the 30L bag when I don’t need to carry as much.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bought for Trip to France

I bought this bag so I could reduce the size of my checked bag. I was able to pack everything in a carry on size bag and this back pack. I love all of the compartments and that it is not too bulky despite its size. It is well made and I expect to use this for a long time!

Just What I Needed for Weekend+ Trips
on September 5, 2023

from Brooklyn, NY
I was feeling discouraged with my old weekend bad -- It had two large compartments, and I found it difficult to pack / remember where I left things. I use packaging cubes, and they just didn't fit my old back.
This bag is so much better. The ability to add items to one large compartment made me able to stack my packing cubes. Additionally, I could take my cord case from my other backup and just slide it in -- it fit perfectly. Lastly, my toiletry bags fit great in the front portion. This was just what I needed.
The ability to hide straps was an add on bonus, as I often have to put this on top of a proper suitcase. That was great too.
And, in the end, when I was done with the bag, everything could be removed easily and it could be stored.
Overall, I'm super happy with this purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great new pack for traveling

I’ve used my old North Face internal frame backpack for all my travels since 1978. Now in my late 60’s it doesn’t fit or feel like it used to. I have read reviews on the 45L and decided to take the plunge and buy myself the Peak Design 45L for our upcoming European trip.
I purchased it in sage which I love! There are so many cool features. Lots of compartments to keep your personal items organized and separate. The straps are easily adjustable and fit my body perfectly. There are a number of handles on the back so you can easily pick it up from various angles without having to grab the straps.
I am very impressed with the quality of this pack and its light weight.
I expect this will be the last backpack I buy. Hopefully it will take me across the globe like my previous one did.

Great bag

I traveled in Colorado for 2 weeks and never felt like I was really forgetting anything. Only downside is that fully loaded this bag is HEAVY. Be strategic about setting it down and picking it up if you need/ want to be kind to your joints. Once it’s actually on your shoulders it’s very comfortable and it fit in overhead bins with room to spare. Looking forward to more adventures.

Fits bigger glass than listed with Large Cube
on September 3, 2023
Posted by: Wils
from Sherwood Park
Bought this bag a year ago, it’s great for carry on and for general carry for big glass with gripped cameras. With the large PD camera cube I can fit a Nikon Z9 with the 800mm 6.3 pf attached which is longer than the listed max carry size of the cube. Note that the cube won’t zip up with something this long but the bag will zip around it without issue or strain. The camera and lens are 18” long from front of lens cap (zemlin) to the edge of the camera eyecup, with the hood in reverse. I feel you could squeeze it up another 0.5” to 0.75” if your setup was longer but that’s pushing it. Hope this helps for someone wondering the real maxed out internal length of this setup
