This has the most comfortable shoulder straps I've ever used. It's highly adjustable; I don't get the "wobble". the side load zippers are very useful, I'm no longer digging all through my bag. The large bag isn't too large. I haven't flown with it yet, but it seems spacious enough for a 3-day trip. It holds my 15in macbook with a thick case in the slot easily. The one thing I would like to see is a side strap on the upper side of the bag to reinforce the slot for the travel tripod pocket. I would like to tie down tall items that stick out past the pocket. Overall, this is my new favorite bag!
Just purchased the Everyday Sling 10L (V2) to use it for work. I was able to use it for about 2 weeks before my office closed because of the coronavirus pandemic. During that time i felt it was a little too small for my liking. my 13inch macbook pro (2010) didn't fit well. It was a struggle to put it inside the laptop pocket. Plus if i decide to bring my dslr camera and an extra lense it would probably a very tight fit or not fit at all. Don't get me wrong this sling looks and feels very well made. The materials used are top notch. Anyway, i guess i'll just continue to search for my edc work bag but still keep this to use for non work stuff. Stay safe and healthy! Thank you! Cheers!
I own a bit of PD stuff, plus a few other companies too. I own way too many bags; I think it is a sickness. However, I am so happy to receive my new 15L zipper everyday bag. I was doubly excited to find my large IPad pro, fit so quickly in the back pocket. I own the everyday Backpack 30L V1, so I know how the rest of the bag works. The outer material seems water-resistant, and it is small enough to haul onto a jet plane. For my everyday travels, I will carry my Fuji x100v with a flash, and a few accessories. On second thought, maybe I'll do that on most trips, especially after the coronavirus shelter in place. I do need to carry a lot of camera gear from time to time, and I have a bag for that. But for now, I am stoked with this bag.

I received two travel backpacks green and black and we couldn't be more satisfied. These are of high quality material, feel great on and the storage compartments and optional compression bags you can buy are worth it. These bags are exactly what we are looking for to take on as carryons in North America and budget european flights.
We had an issue with not receiving some straps and customer service was able to send them to us quickly. PD is a great company and we will continue to be their customers in the future without a doubt. Highly recommend.
The Travel bag is exactly what you expect from Peak Designs: Deliberate, innovated design, executed with high quality materials and manufacturing, combined with top notch customer service, resulting in an unparalleled ownership experience. The travel bag has been my only bag on two month-long trips and combined with Peak Design packing cubes, the bag has fit everything I've needed.
Great tripod, and it's the best tripod I have traveled with! Light, easy to deploy, easy to use, and it provides incredible stability. I have used the tripod with a variety of cameras from small and lightweight to large heavy medium format tele lens setups. In all situations the tripod has excelled!
Every time I use it where other photographers are present I end up answering questions and doing a demo.
Excellent design and functionality - and yes, the 30L fits under the airplane seat.

PD does design right - the bag is beautiful, and functionality is excellent.
This is probably my 4th backpack, trying to find one that really does what I need. It seems like I may have found it! My travel bag the past few years has been the ThinkTank Airport Accelerator - also great, & it fits my monster old 500mm Nikon lens - but it is BIG. I have had trouble even with small overhead bins in airplanes with it - and then I have to check a roller bag with my actual clothes, or cheat an extra bin space.
I can tell you that the 30L size will fit as a carryon under the seat, and still hold what I need, and I shoot big DSLRs - not mirrorless rigs. (It will NOT fit the 500mm, so I'll be keeping the ThinkTank for if I need to travel with that one).
I just took my first trip with the bag, to Costa Rica, and was able to put a roller bag in the overhead, and my 30L Everyday bag with ALL the gear I needed under the seat in front, and not check anything. Which is how I like to fly. I carry big DSLRs - not mirrorless. I did miss 1 lens that did not make the cut, but that was an executive decision. For anyone interested, here's what all I packed, all in the 30L PD bag:
- D850 body w/battery grip -D500 body w/battery grip - Nikkor 300mm f4 - " " 70-200mm f2.8 - 1.4x TC - PD Travel tripod - Zoom H4N audio recorder - Rode VideoPro mic - SB 700 speedlight - Cables, chargers, SD & XQD cards, small flashlight, bluetooth speaker, rocket blaster, lens brush, etc - all accessories.
