Looking Good in Italy for 12 Days
on May 16, 2023
Posted by: BagNerd
from Chattanooga, Tn
Bag has all needed features but this is not that detail kind of review. Here is the real deal…
My wife and I like to travel and used to do it a lot. We are a bit rusty because we have two little kids but we decided we were going to Italy for 12 days, just us, anniversary trip. Now, I like efficiency and she, well she likes to look good (which I’m a fan of) but looking good requires many things like outfits and toiletries etc… All I can think is roller bags in Italy which means trains and ferries, taxis and buses, stairs and cobble stones and I started sweating sitting right here on my couch. So I searched google for best non “backpacking” backpack and found peak designs. I ordered two of everything backpacks, packing cubes, toiletry kits, shoe bags etc. let’s say I went the distance.
Bags came in the mail and when I opened them my wife was more than a bit skeptical. She was unsure if “looking good” could fit in that one bag but we committed to try. Using the “system” of packing cubes it was amazing what we got in those bags all while remaining efficient. So much so that when we left for the airport my brother asked “is that ALL you guys are taking?!” Off we went. She checked hers and I carried mine on. They check like a dream because the back straps hide away with magnets. No issues carrying it on we get to Italy and what I imagined was real.
We carried them through the streets of Rome, stuffed them overhead on trains, put them under seats on ferries, hauled them up at least a million steps on the Almafi coast, Carried them through cobblestone ally’s of Venice. All the while passing those sorry looking travelers shlepping two oversized roller bags. And I realized, we looked good.
Then we went shopping and added more stuff to the mix. This time I was skeptical, but wouldn’t you know it all that stuff just kept fitting into this expandable contraption. The only issue was that my wife started making fun of me because every time I saw any other peak designs products out and about I pointed them out and expressed how those people had great taste. Can you believe that she called me a “bag nerd” but I’m cool with it.
After 12 days of feeling just slightly superior we returned home and the skepticism is now gone. I overheard my wife FaceTiming about the trip last night and she started showing off her backpack and called it a “miracle bag.”
All in all I couldn’t be happier. Great product made by some serious “bag nerds” who I’m sure would love to help you look good wherever it is you are off to next.
Thanks Peak Designs. (I have no relationship with these people, just a fan of the bags)
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this bag looking for an upgrade from my Jansport backpack I’ve had for 15(+) years. It’s incredibly versatile and offers many security features! I like it so much I plan to get the smaller 35L for travel where I don’t need such a lar bag.

I upgraded to this backpack for a recent trip and loved it! It's so easy to pack and access with great organizational features. It worked great coupled with my carryon suitcase to avoid checking any baggage on our flights! I'm a fan!

Amazing Travel Bag!

On a recent trip to San Francisco, I had the pleasure of going into the SF Store. I purchased one of the 45L travel bags, a Camera Cube, and a Wash Pouch. I can whole heartedly say that I will be using these ALL THE TIME. Packing this bag for my trip home, I was instantly impressed with the quality and thoughtful storage solutions of this bag. This has now become an instant addition to my all-carry-on travel loadout, and will be for years to come. Highly recommended. As a side note, if you have the opportunity to go into the SF store, the staff there are super helpful with amazing customer service. Big shoutout to the THREE people who very excitedly demo'd the products I ended up purchasing. Only issue is that I see myself spending WAY more next time I am at a Peak Design Store... Well done.

Phenomenal

It’s a little heavy but it is durable. Some of the features are really nice to have. Hideaway straps behind the magnets. And they offer a lifetime warranty. You are spending a little more than you may like but I still think it’s a no brainer (especially if you can get a discount)!
