Bought it to carry on my stuff (wallet, cellphone) on summertime, this Field Pouch V2 is super handy and easy to use. Everything you need is here + the Peaj design quality. A must have at this price !
I bought this a month ago to carry a small camera and have been loving it! The materials matched with the opening of the pouch make this very good at keeping your gear dry. The top rolls down and creates a great seal. The liner is wonderful, I think its made from Lulu Lemon Engineered Warmth fabric? The bag also looks great, I've already gotten a few compliments, which was a surprise.
I am blown away by the quality of this bag. It feels incredibly well made, robust even. I feel like it would last being passed down for generations.
The only caveat is that I didn't care for the strap that comes with the bag. I'm glad that it does come with a strap as it should, but I thought it was too thin. I also didn't care for the hooks used to connect the strap to the bag. I much prefer the anchor system and ended up pairing it with the Slide Lite for the bag strap. I just wish the bag was specifically designed for using the anchor links.
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.
