Peak Design Slayed This Design & Thought Of Everything | Best Backpack Yet !
on January 10, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
I am seriously ‘fanboying' over Peak Design here in the PacNW.
The 45L is my new go-to backpack. It is great for quick trips to the mountains but versatile enough to carry camera equipment and even all of my heavy textbooks.
Peak Design pays attention to details like the chest straps and waist straps. They are great for distributing heavy loads and the magnetic sleeves = no stray straps hanging out.
The design was deliberate, smart, and well-planned. The inside has a sleeve that holds both my MacBook and iPad. The wash pouch, smart cube, tech pouch, and camera cube all fit inside with ease. There are hidden pockets, to store straps (i.e. shoe pouch) or other compressible packing cubes.
The material is durable. I went on a hike and made a contact against sandstone, pine tree branches, and bushes. The material held up great and no permanent marks were left behind. It got dirty from dust, tree sap, and soil but it was easy to clean up. I used a damp rag and it looks good as new.
The bag matches my vibe perfectly; whether I'm in a casual place with friends or I'm sporting it with a suit and tie at a trendy event downtown.
The bag exceeded all of my expectations.
The only feedback is the strap size is not as thick as the 30L series.
Peak Design is one of my favorite brands and I can't wait to see what is released next.
Worth. Every. Penny.

Excellent!

Recently took it on a hiking trip to the Far East. I kept everything I needed and was secure in the knowledge that all my items were safe from the elements and from thieves. The only drawback is that everyone wanted to put their things in my bag!

I was leery about getting, I did anyway and have to say I have had more compliments on this backpack/duffle bag. I have used three times and it works on plane trains and camping trips. The team has definitely knocked this one out of the park and I will be purchasing more stuff. Great quality and durability.

Another great bag by PD
on January 10, 2019
Posted by: Joanne
This is my third Peak Design bag and as soon as it was announced I wanted it without even seeing the features. I have ADHD and it is essential for me that everything has a place that can be quickly and easily accessed. This bag, like all of my PD bags, does that and the packing cubes are genius with their separate zipper for storing dirty items. Made both trips I have taken it on easy and organized. I prefer the backpack function over the duffel bag one because the duffel handle is on the small side and feels uncomfortable. Would have preferred something I could fit my arm through. Overall, though, it's my new favorite carry-on bag and has confirmed Peak Design as my bag of choice.

45L backpack Carry on
on January 10, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
Perfect size for carry on and very comfortable to carry around airports. I have just come back from a trip to Africa and had no problems at all with carry on. The only problem is weight restriction of 7kg but that is not the bags fault. Could only take one canon body and 100-400mm lens plus a few small extras including an IPad and the limit was reached. airlines are becoming more restrictive and weighing carry on luggage. Quality of bag is excellent and the pods are brilliant.

Just what I needed
on January 10, 2019

I've used it on several city trips and even to commute to work. It's versatile enough for both, although commuting on a bike needs readjustment so the backpack doesn't sit to high and gets in the way of my helmet in overall this is a great piece of equipment! I love the organisation possibilities you get and the extra pouches bring peace to my neurotic ways. The next purchase to complete it all will be a strap and small camera pouch.
Thanks PeakDesign for completing my neuroticisms :) you guys rock
PS: love the newsletters, they've always made me laugh.

Best Backpack Ever
on January 10, 2019
Posted by: Alessandro
What can I say?! I have got this from kickstart and it is just he perfect backpack for almost everything, the quality is top notch and if you get the full kit you can organize everything as you wish. In the main compartment I can fit the medium camera bag, the small packing cube and the tech pouch, and I can still fit the large packing cube in the other pocket! I will get the small camera bag as well in the future to be even more flexible! If you are looking for all the features go on YouTube and check the 10 hours video this guys uploaded and You'll have all your answers.
I have used this to travel and I'm not going back to trolleys anymore.

PAC for Adventure
on January 10, 2019

This is the perfect bag for traveling having adventures with a photo equipment. The size is perfect for flying but its capacity is still impressive. The shoulder straps are long enough for winter tours with a thick jacket. The only thing that could be improved are the plastic rings maintaining the ends of the shoulder straps. A great product that I warmly recommend.
