cool camare bag

The functional design of PD's daily series is basically unmatched, but as a popular EDC package, the biggest weakness is the weight brought by protection.

This is my first experience with everyday carry bag
I never tried first version,
I don't use it for cameras or photography gadgets,
I never tried first version,
I don't use it for cameras or photography gadgets,
But I really loved the concept of compartmentilazation and high quality materials, it just happens to carry and protect all my work essentials in an easy to access and easy to carry manner.
What I use it for : my syprface pro 7 in a sleeve and it's charger and USB hub, my coffee thermos, some ducuments, keys, wallets, ID badge, vape devices, assortment of pens, power bank, travel wall plug, USB stick among others,

Price is a bit on the higher side, but I believe it's worthwhile it for my needs

Best camera bag I've owned

My only gripe is a small one considering just how streamlined and comfortable this bag is; it needs more room in the zip compartments.

I have V1 and V2.
I'm using both bag in work 100% of the time, I have to pack different things into it - pens, pair of hard A4 folders, a knife - could be useful in lots of situations, wallet, business cards, cables, phone, notebook for notes, etc. Sometimes when I did a little shopping in groceries store V1 always allows me to hold those extra items without doubt - V2 with 13L won't. I've just found out Messenger is a great cooler box when you put some cold into it, it held cold things for hours.
At the end, V2 is great anyway, but for my needs is a 'step backward'. Significantly lesser space for goods, a BIG way smaller front pocket (an iphone 5s or even a business card won't fit vertically because of zip sticks at closing) and it comes without any back pocket, which was extremely useful for me. Other pockets smaller, thinner, hard to find what to store in it. And it comes in only in 13L is a great MEH. (I think when sales went good at start a 15L (or bigger) will apear in store.)

I like new curves, new shoulder strap, overall quality, capture clip holder is way better then on V1.
Just V2 is not for me - maybe only for photographers with some cameras and tiny addons. If you want to use literally in everyday situations, I suggest you to buy V1 or V1+ - V2 15L wont be better, because missing pockets will there, and whick pockets are currently there won't be bigger. (Confute me PD. :)
I love all PD products which I have, maybe V3 will be the ultimate bag in any view.

Always pleased to see the bag being improved.

Hello, I am a long time client. I currently own most products from your site. I recently purchased the v2 messenger bag. The design and look is very nice.
My comments are that I like on v1 and v1.1 (own them too) that the bag would sit up straight when placed down. The curve on the bottom no longer allows that.
I also wish that the inside flap zipper was larger like before. I find it very limiting what I can put inside.
I also found the black got dirty very quickly. I live in Toronto and we do have snow now. But would suggest people think twice about the black being put on the ground on daily use. The gray has always looked great for me. And I've had the v1 since the project first launched on Kickstater.

I'm using the Messenger V2 for my everyday carry for laptop (Lenovo Yoga), iPad and miscellaneous gear. Unfortunately the laptop doesn't leave enough give for the iPad to fit in the sleeve. Otherwise I love the bag but agree with others that the V1 width would make it perfect.

Almost perfect
on February 8, 2020

I love the redesigned messenger bag. It has a lot more features than the original. However I do wish there was a way to have it just be a little bit bigger. I find when I am condensing my gear for the day for either work or photography I have to leave one or two things out. If it was an inch or two longer on either side it would be perfect but that is a small thing. I love how it is taller on the front and sides that keeps things in so you can go up a little higher. It has the external straps now which I can slide things into to help with carrying other things. For small papers or money there are two nice pockets that I can put on the outside and have them zipped up and secured. there are two pouches on the inner right and left but since it is a little shorter when its packed out its hard to use thats why I wish maybe an extra inch or two.
