I bought the messenger bag for a recent trip as a substitute for a PD backpack as the weather was going to be hot and the backpack would certainly have been warm to wear. The messenger bag performed well for me to carry my Canon 5D, 24-70mm and 70-200mm zoom lenses. I also bought a clip to attach the camera to the strap but found that the strap was too flimsy. The strap needs to be more like the sling. The strap should also have. a loop for a tether to the camera on the clip. I am not yet confident with the clip and a tether to the strap long enough to bring up to position would be great.
Got it as a replacement for my messenger v1 that I got from the first kickstarter ( for the rubber getting off the handle after 5 or so years !) it’s smaller ( for the best ) looks greate, keeps all the good feathers of v1 but better looking
This bag has a huge amount of storage options, I especially like the strap points around the bag to strap tripods and light stands to the bag. The quality is great and the bag is comfortable to wear walking and biking.
I bought this bag about a year ago and I use it for mainly for school. Fits my laptop perfectly snug and I can toss in about 3 large books or 9 small books. A bunch of nifty little pockets for all the pens and calculators I use too!
Had this for years. still going strong. Still clean and looks new. that considered, its crazy they sell their stuff for the price they do. Peak Design has replaced every bag, every storage in my kit.
I backed the kickstarter for the original everyday messenger, and used it daily — commuting, camera bag, and logged thousands of travel miles. The laptop compartment zipper finally failed last fall, and I contacted Peak for a replacement. They sent the new messenger bag, with internal laptop comprtment, and.a few other improvements I hadn’t realized were needed.
I have been using this bag (v1) on a daily basis for years, fully loaded on my bike. A worn strap was unavoidable and Peak Design's warranty has followed through in Europe without a hitch.
A great bag, practical, durable and aesthetic. Good job Peak Design
