I use this bag all the time to bring my extra gear on trips. Very handy and stores a lot. I love the convenience of the closure and the little features that make things easy to separate gear.
I use the middle size for a EOS R with one lens and an action camera. The quality is awesome. The look is awesome. The only thing I don't like is how tight the front pocket is. If you put something small there like an extra battery or SD card it is a little painful (literally) to find it and get it out. This pocket is usable only for something that you will not use often
Using this for a mirrorless and lenses. Beautifully made; mostly great. Balance is "off" a bit; tips over when loaded. Needs a flatter bottom. Would love a side pocket (zippered) for my phone.
I have bought many bags over the years including brands like Boundary Supply. I have to say that Peak Design is by far the best bag I have ever owned. It is not just the quality of what you get and pay for, but in fact every time you use the items they somehow communicate to you that the people that have created what you are using have gone done this with great passion, professionalism, and a very focused attention to detail. I know I wont be looking anywhere else for my bags or accessories.
This is a great messenger style bag for everyday use. It’s nice and roomy with plenty of room for almost any camera or day to day gear you might need. I only have two complaints, the magnetic latch is a little bit funky to get closed properly and I really wish the side pockets both had loops for the key holder.
I often use this bag when I’m riding my bike to and from college classes and it has been perfect for this application.
Great product overall, but I'm not happy with the fabric which is kinda scratchy and I'm afraid it'll ruin my cloth when I frequently slide it back and forth.
I am pretty obsessed with Peak design bags and I got this after a warranty claim on my 1st gen 15 liter messenger.
There is so much to love about this bag compared to the previous gen: 1. Improved materials. The shell looks indestructible, the blacked out version looks like it was designed for Batman, the zipper is stronger. 2. Improved design. Strap functions better and is more adjustable. The padding is awesome. 3. Side pockets with zippers!
Even though I will list some criticisms I still consider this an excellent bag. 1. The flap/cover of the bag is so stiff that it won't stay open easily. It's aggressively wanting to stay closed. 2. Less organization/ space in the front zipped accessories pocket than previous gen. 3. No 15 liter version.
When 15 liter version comes out I am buying it instantly.
