Great looks and great utility
on May 27, 2023

from Brussels,Belgium
I bought the bag 2 years ago, use it every day and even after 2 years it still looks new!
I use it mainly as my work pc bag, but when I have to travel for a day or two, it is still big enough.
I also had an experience with after sales, and they responded quickly, efficiently, so all good here!

Camera kit at the ready
on May 30, 2023
Posted by: Marie
from Pullman, WA
Very comfortable to wear. I’ve read reviews where people complain about the pack’s weight, but I love how much padding there is and how firmly it keeps its shape. I trust my camera equipment in it.
It’s perfect for a small kit, so much so that I have it in my car at all times. It’s as sturdy as a suitcase while at the same time pliable enough to store in tight spaces. I love the top handle. I love the magnetic clip (and didn’t think I would) for the expandable top. I love how the pulls for side zippers store inside the bag for security. I love how the shoulder straps are held in place with magnets when not neing worn. I didn’t truly like the look, but it seemed to be what I needed, so I ordered it. Because the pack is so easy to use and vary according to different trip needs, the look has grown on me. I am so impressed by the protection it provides and the thought that went into the compartment dividers. I want all my travel pieces to be made by Peak Design!

Great backpack for photo trips and to the office

I use this bag whenever I go on photography trips, I love the different compartments and how easy it is to unzip the side and find the exact lens or accessory I'm looking for.
When I head into the day job it does a great job holding my electronics -- I have a tech pouch I slide into the bottom and my lunch sits on top, laptop in the sleeve.
I don't have to mess with the configuration for both these main use cases, which works well for me. I think if you did, it might be somewhat a pain point as getting those internal dividers in just the right location time and time again might get old.
My only real complaint (it still gets 5 stars) is that the bag wears sort of heavy and warm. Sometimes when I'm hiking a ways on a photo trip I get overly sweaty where a 'hiking bag' just sort of wears a bit better, in my opinion. The material just isn't really breathable by design so I don't know that it's a solvable problem, but the little fin on the back just doesn't really do the trick to keep the bag feeling 'airy'.
Awesome build quality like everything PD do - a very premium feeling bag.

Blown Away At the Quality and Innovation
on May 31, 2023

I was hesitant to buy this and was looking at a competitor but after watching endless videos as well as some of Peak Designs own product videos I pulled the trigger. As a photographer day to day I was thrilled with the customization and kept finding new things out it seems every other day (hidden pockets, customization, etc).
My biggest concern was a trip I just recently took to Japan and if I could use this is my travel pack. Peak makes one specifically for this but I had already bought this. With the travel cubes in my arsenal I was thrilled to get a weeks worth of clothes with the larger and medium sized travel cube as well I used the shoe cube as my carry on.
Oh this was all with a Canon R6, 15-35mm and a 70-200mm packed.
Now it was heavy and I wouldn't advise lugging all that around on a day-to-day basis during travel but not surprisingly it was a lot easier than I expected due to the design of the shoulder straps and quality build. My shoulders were tired on days we moved locations and there was lots of walking but I was surprised at how light all that felt.
If you're on the fence about this bag...don't be it's well worth the investment. Im thrilled with the result and glad I spent the extra money getting something that I can use for years.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent backpack, didn't disappoint!

Have been using it now for 2 weeks, and is performing as expected. Have been able to structure the inside of the pack according my wishes with the dividers and have been able to find a convenient spot for all that I want to carry. Is also very comfortable.

Really great

I've only had the bag a few weeks but I already love it. The features are really intuitive and carefully thought about. Nothing is extraneous or unnecessary. Super comfy to wear and adjust. The ONLY downside for me is that the 20L is a LITTLE smaller than I thought, especially with the dividers in it, but they can be adjusted/removed so it's not a criticism of the bag.

I can’t say enough about this backpack. It’s the Herman Miller Aeron of backpacks: once you get it you’ll never need anything else. I use it for hiking, biking, commuting, work, and as a travel bag (it even meets frontiers personal item standards) The lifetime warranty is superfluous, this bag will last a lifetime. If the price feels to steep (it shouldn’t scare you, it’s worth it) then check PD Marketplace!
