Great Quality!

I recieved my bag after my previous bag got messed up through warranty. The customer service was amazing and understanding. The new bag is good quality and no issues! I like some of the features from V1, but overall I have been enjoying using the new bag.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fantastic & stylish backpack, with minor drawbacks

The Backpack is as stylish as ever and very well made - so far I was not disappointed with any product made by PeakDesign. I like the material and the fact that there are plenty of pockets and small compartments. Nevertheless, there are a few things which I think are due for an update:
- many of the small pockets are made from a soft mesh and close with a magnet. If items in the pockets are a bit larger, the magnet easily comes loose
- I absolutely dislike the dividers. The flapping mechanism does not stay in place with heavier items such as camera lenses. Because they do only attach to the long sides, small to medium sized items easily fall through to the bottom at the sides - as I like to keep such items in the top compartment, I expect this to be annoying quite soon
- while the closing mechanism of the top flap is satisfying an stylish, I am not yet sure how well it will keep items in long term due to the lack of a zippper
- accessing items in the side flaps means the main compartment has to be opened. Some backpacks have 2 way access which would have been great
- padding for a DSLR ist not great. I always feel like the item is moving around an needs additional padding to stay in place.

On the plus side, the backpack has a few defining features I think are a must for a camera backpack which are still quite rare at times:
- 2 compartments for laptop & tablet (former is height adjustable!)
- side access to the camera/main compartment

Just as good as the smaller one

Got this one for a bigger laptop that didn't fit the gray 20L version I had before, and it's every bit as good. All the compartments, magnets, thoughtful details. Actually feels more comfortable to wear than the 20L as well, in spite of being a bit heavier. Would have preferred one of the options without the leather handle, but this one was on a pretty good sale, so whatever. The dark blue does look really nice!

Nice looking bag but lacks Organization design.

I love the color and look of the bag but what I was not happy about was that this bag does not open completely and give you a full layout of the inside. Also because it’s a tier style organized bag there is not much option to really customize this bag the way I need to. It fits most of my equipment but not all. I was under the impression that for this size the bag would be better organized or give me more room to re-arrange but I will have to look at a different option for that. Please update this backpack in the future
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I’ve got the 20, thought I’d get the 30 too!

Peak Design stuff! Where do I start? Maybe I’ve got an addiction, maybe I like stuff that matches all from the same company or maybe I just like the highest quality gear I know will last. Any negatives? Well, the lower part of the bag sits on the small of my back and is a little distracting when I walk but that’s a sizing thing and I’ll get used to it I know. positives: the shoulder straps sit perfect and are so comfortable. Thank you all.

Style and quality comes together!

The everyday backpack has been my daily work backpack for the past several years and I literally don’t feel the need to change it since it is such a quality product that even after so many years of daily use shows no sign of wear and tear. That’s why I always buy Peak Design gear. It looks like a million dollars even after years and years of use (and abuse).
I would recommend this to a friend!
