Travel bag is doubling as my everyday carry with cubes for lunch, workout shoes and clothes and dedicated laptop case. I compared the Arris Boundary Supply, Aer travel pack 2, and used AEL222 Alchemy backpack. This was my pick because it offered the most versatility. It would be cool to see an urban colorway on the exterior similar to the AEL222. Also would like to incorporate the cool fidlock sternum strap, Nywool and loading straps found on the Arris bag. I would buy this product again. 9.4/10
Esta mochila es súper práctica para viajar, tiene una gran capacidad, en ella llevo mi cámara con tres lentes, mi Mavic Pro 2 con sus baterías, mi MacBook Pro de 13 pulgadas y mi ropa, todo está siempre ordenado, ha sido una gran compra.
I have participated in the second Kickstarter campaign years ago, to acquire a messenger bag. I am still using it every day, and it looks like new. I needed a travel bag (carry-on in size), so it was a no brainer that I would purchase another Peak Design product. It is just perfect! Compared to my 'old' bag, I can notice many imporvements, but the sturdiness and the quality are exactly the same.
I have been a fan of Peak Design since the beginning and have 3 bags, camera pouches, and some of the other little pouches. One thing that is common are the straps and how they adjust. For the Travel backpack, the chest strap and the straps that go across the front of it are not fixed to the bag. I lost the chest strap on an airplane and one of the front straps fell out of the magnetic pouch on the bottom. Kind of a bummer. I think there is an opportunity to look at the Osprey straps and configure them similarly. Saying all of this, I am a huge Peak fan and their quality of the bags and functionality is like no other.
This bag is definitely good for travel photographers, big and solid, minimal and functional. Surely, it will be one of the most amazing backpack that Peak Design has made. However, if you planned to bring this to shoot everyday, you'd better train up your back muscles.
I've bought a lot of TUMI gear over the years which I use every day and love - but Peak Designs definitely punches above its weight with their product offerings! I love the quality and utility of the design of the Peak Designs products. I bought a black 45L backpack for my camera gear, and was so impressed that I returned to the PD web site and ended up with another in grey for my wife as well as tow of the matching duffel bags... and "all the fixin's" as they'd say in Texas!! Now just waiting for travel to get back to normal to put the gear through its paces!! With a lifetime warranty I can travel with confidence! Thanks for building a great product ... and being a great company!!
I love this bag. Bought it a few months ago and it's perfect for one bag life! I can pack an entire month's worth of travel gear/ clothes and not be wanting.
