Great but...

I'd like to preface that I am pretty picky when it comes to comfort and functionality. I was looking for something that would hold my everyday carries like compact camera, keys, extra chargers, batteries. field notes/pens, etc.
It does the job. Construction is exceptional. The little pockets inside are awesome.
However, I felt a little dissatisfied as soon as I started packing things in... The main reason is because of the shape of the pouch at the bottom. It's caved in from all sides and seamed that way so it doesn't fit things in as nicely as it would if it was just flat bottom. Because of this reason, I find myself reaching out to a different bag for my EDC. I have lots of keys, Ricoh GR, Sony ZV1 to generally pack in and it just doesn't fit well. The size isn't the issue, but the shape for me. I still like it enough to keep it but it's definitely not my EDC as I expected it to be. I'd still recommend this product but would be clear about the shape of the pouch to consider.
Very happy with this. I took a risk as it was a bit more money than I wanted to pay but it is actually worth every penny. It was sent so swiftly with excellent communication about when to expect it. The design is lovely and it is very useful indeed for my camera and other bits and bobs. Thanks
I got it as an add on for my everyday backpack, I always leave it on the top compartment, filled with batteries, cards and cables, so they’re not hidden in the bag
On location (while shooting) it’s great to have it on my body without having to Cary the whole backpack
Purchased recently for use for accessories when out on a shoot and now carrying my backpack. Many pockets to keep organized and separate items so they don't scratch. Expandable design very useful.
Sleek and excellent quality. Purchased in part because of recycled aspect but surprised by the wasteful packaging- plastic, velcro, and more. I think the company could shift packaging easily to more in long with its environmental message.
I picked this up as a way of organising and keeping track of the little bits and pieces that are useful when travelling with cameras. Space for batteries, a couple of rolls of film, a GaN charger for tablet, camera, phone and laptop, as well as a couple of cables and adaptors, then a nice space in the back for Apple Pencil, real pencil, passport and a small notebook. Also love the versatility of being able to slip it onto a belt, or pair it with my Slide (which I prefer to the included strap) if you want to just carry your camera and a couple of essentials rather than a full bag when actually taking photos.
Used this pouch for a few months and I am loving it. One downside is that it does not have the most secure strap if you are jumping up and down with it. But overall with you need a sleek and functional small pouch then this is for you.
Everybody talks about it, but very few do it. This bag does it. It is solid to hold yet light. It encourages use by the way the top closure works. It hold all sorts of stuff; my charging block, three kinds of charge cords, a knife and a spare mask, and sometimes a wallet and keys, sometimes a Glock. Securely with thoughtful pockets. It also has an adaptable sliding strap only Peak Design could come up with. Quite the package. Note though, it screams “Hey mister, is that a purse your toting’ or are you just a tough hombre?” I think it’s great, but then I am a sucker for great design.
