2 pockets confusing
on November 11, 2022

from KC
Nice bag. Love the magnetic clips. My issue is being able to open it from two opposite ends. It is too easy to leave one side open and losing all of your equipment when you pick up the bag.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Excellent for one bag travel

I bought this so I could have my hands free to carry other people’s bags too on family trips. It’s an excellent bag with just enough space, a few good quick access options, and the usual PD quality materials. And it’s helped me enter a whole new world of one bag travel.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Almost Perfect Carry On

I recently used this bag on a trip to Italy for a week and a half. It has plenty of room. It is also very sharp looking. With 3 compression cubes I already had, I was able to bring everything I needed. It was very sturdy and compact. I did have to expand it on the way back but the European airline didn’t even bat an eye. My only issue was that the straps were uncomfortable for me. It’s not a deal breaker, but if I had to walk far with it it would have been. I also think the waist strap should be included in this design. I tried on the 45 liter but it was much too big for my 5’3” frame. I would also have liked compression straps inside the bag or outside. I also didn’t see the purpose of the tiny side pocket, or the flap on the back without closure. It was confusing to me.

Fantastic Travel Pack
on October 27, 2022

from Portland, OR
I have been searching for the perfect business/pleasure travel backpack for years. For the last several years I have been using a 28l PacSafe which has held up very, very well, but it is only a top loading bag and was too small for 2-3 day overnights packing a computer, charger, shoes and clothes. So far, the PD 30l seems to be the one. Clamshell opening, easy access, not too many straps and pockets, the shoulder strap system is fantastic and I love the expansion zipper. I looked for a long time, tried all of the bigger brands, Patagonia and the like, and settled on this bag. Looking forward to many years of use.

Awesome backpack, some limitations
on October 25, 2022
Posted by: km
The design is great. Two things are bothering me:
1) There is a severe lack of quick storage. I get the clean aesthetic but the sleeve for the luggage handle is just wasted space. I wish the top compartment just went all the way down or at least closed with a zipper. Don’t have any interest in putting a backpack into luggage personally.

The second thing is the sternum clasp is hard to use so I don’t use it much. Would prefer something more typical, I know buckles break but the hook is challenging.
Other than that it’s a beautiful bag, durable, lots of space.

Way too heavy for mountain climbing
on October 20, 2022
Posted by: I clicked not recommended
from No
Too heavy, not enough pockets on the outside. After I put a water bottle, 2 lens and a tripod. I don't have a space for clothing or even an extra water bottle for my friends. I usually also bring my own container for food but there is also very limited space for that.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Backpack at a Reasonable Price

I have this backpack in 3 colors and love them all. The special edition X-pac version from Huckberry is my favorite. Great straps and easy clamshell design combines with a no frills laptop sleeve and quick access pocket make this my “go to” bag most of the time.
I would recommend this to a friend!
