Very good, but might be more bag than I need!

Overall, this is a great travel bag! My favorite features are the shoulder and hip straps that stow really nicely, and the ability to go between the compact ~30L up to ~45L. This bag is very well made and is a joy to use!
I don't have any regrets choosing this bag, but I do think it is more bag than I need, since I am not a camera guy. A number of the features are directed towards traveling with camera gear, so I don't take advantage of them as a normie. But of course, I knew that going in and I would say I'm quite happy with the Peak Design 45L bag, I just don't think I would buy it full price as a non-camera guy because there are other good options out there.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The perfect travel companion

This bag has traveled with me for the past 5 years. Whether a simple photo shoot, a weekend getaway, or a multi-week international trip, the Travel Backpack is always part of my kit. The thoughtful design elements such as the luggage pass-through, hide away backpack straps, expandable capacity, functional pocket layout, and high quality materials really set this one apart from all the other bags I have tried. You really hit the nail on the head for me with this design, thank you!

I bought this for my husbands birthday, along with two packing cubes. I was a bit reluctant due to the price point, but when the items arrived and I saw the features and quality of the pack and cubes I was very happy.

Awesome Strap System
on January 8, 2024
Posted by: Mas
Definitely the most innovative strap system I've ever seen. I love the way they hide away while always being available for use, especially the waist straps. Overall, the bag seems to be made high quality.

The airtravel backpack
on January 8, 2024
Posted by: Stargazer
from New York
I got this online a couple weeks ago and the bag looks sleek and the finish looks really good. it doesn’t look like a cheap backpack. there are plenty of pockets and zips to keep a multitude of items. Just be sure to remember where you put your small items. It can get lost! One of this features I didn’t appreciate was the side zips that didn’t zip all the way to open up in the front. I guess I’m used to typical bags with front zips all the way through. The zips open up at side only and this makes it harder to go through all pockets when looking for your stuff. I also wish they had other colors instead of black and olive green. Otherwise the bag was really sturdy and stands upright by itself instead of falling over, so it keeps itself clean. The side pocket also has sleeves that are tall enough to prevent water bottle was falling out.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing bag

I finally splurged and upgraded my camera bag. I am SO glad that I did! This bag not only fits my camera, lenses and tripod but also my laptop, wash pouch, and a small packing cube! It's easy to carry with the waist belt and adjustable straps. The handles on all sides really makes traveling easy. Having access to the inner pockets from both inner and outer zippers makes getting to things quick on the go.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Money I ever Spent!
on January 7, 2024
Posted by: OldGrant
I bought this pack as a replacement for my well used Lowepro camera back pack. It was “broken in" a trip to SE Asia involving 9 flights and endless vehicle trips. I was totally blown away by the utility and performance of the backpack and I would have written this review without out the incentive to win something extra. Overall it’s less conventional and a bit different to pack but after watching the Peak video on the product it didn’t take me long to make a paradigm shift as to how a backpack should function and how it should/ could be used.
The pack is neat and easy to travel with even totally loaded/stuffed, it fit the dreaded airline overhead bin sizing jig. Moreover the magnetic arrests on the shoulder strap ended the problem of the straps dragging on airport floors or, even worse, getting unknowingly caught on the arms of airplane seats while making my way down the endless economy aisles on a plane thereby causing me suddenly to jerk and contort. 🙂

Carrying it was a joy because of the three nice handles which allowed travel options vs on shoulder - they are placed so the pack is nicely balanced. I also liked that a couple of tech pouches fit snugly in the bag - one for filters and camera stuff, one for electronics, batteries, etc. The side pouches were great for my rain jacket and an extra socks, etc. I used the back pocket to hold travel docs and my iPad. I have not one regret in buying this.
Not cheap but using it proves it is great value and a joy to own. The only unfortunate issue is that some good hearted bellboy or carrier luggage handler managed to separate the chest strap, which has gone AWOL.😐
