Great Quality!

I bought this last week and was immediately impressed by the quality. I wish there were more pockets/dividers, but it suits my needs well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Was hoping for more

I bought mine a few months back and just recently had a chance to take out for a spin.
Here's what I liked:
- Overall quality is there (Zippers, Pockets, Latch ... etc.)
- Handles, materials

What threw me off:
- I had a "challenging time" adding two lens, a mirrorless body, some smaller accessories and snacks for a trip. Granted, maybe I'm not too familiar with how best to load this bag, but I thought it would have been easier to figure it out.

Here's what I didn't like AT ALL -- and is actually making me consider selling it:
- The shoulder straps left much to be desired -- Within 5-10 min of wearing it, my shoulders were already aching and feeling pinched. VERY uncomfortable experience .... And trust me, the bag was not overloaded. I felt that discomfort even when it was empty (I WISH I tried it out well when it was brand new ... I would have returned for sure).
- I don't see myself travelling or using this on a daily basis (at least as a backpack) -- Which is a HUGE shame.

Peak Design --- PLEASE invest in more padded should straps. I also own your Messenger bag and I find that bit more comfortable (but even that could use a bit more padding).
For the price .... It has a lot of nice materials, features and engineering but it fails on what it was designed for ... a comfortable daily use backpack

Love the bag
on April 12, 2025
Posted by: Andrew
I’ve had this backpack for almost a year now and used it pretty much every day. It fits everything I need for work (tools, laptop, reference books, etc) or travel. It’s very thoughtfully designed and the quality is quite good. I’ve never been worried about any part of it breaking.

Awesome bag with very small issues
on April 8, 2025
Posted by: no
from Austria
I have the 20l v2 version.
So overall, this bag is really good, quality is awesome, most things are really well designed, but there are a few small things that could be improved. These are:
* the storage system for the sternum strap just doesnt work very well. I lost mine basically immediately at my first flight. I bought a replacement and store it now in one of the internal pockets.
* I use the pocket on top for sunglasses. It fells like a sunglasses pocket, but its very tight. I would love if this was just oh so slightly bigger.
* if carrying heavy things for a long time, the straps arent maybe the most comfortable in the world. I mean, they are fine, just not exceptional.

All of these are kind of nit-picky, but for me, its just what keeps it from being perfect.
