Plein Air Painters Dream
on December 5, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
After searching for the perfect backpack, and many unhappy purchases of other backpacks, I finally found the PERFECT backpack for my outdoor painting adventures! As a Plein air painter, you carry lots of gear to get to the perfect spot for your painting and this backpack is lightweight, strong, comfortable and roomy enough to pack it all in! When I saw how others were using it for camera gear I thought this had to be the one. You should consider advertising this to the Plein air painting community! I will certainly spread the word. Thanks for making such a great backpack!! My hunt for the perfect one is over!!

Almost perfect.

Incredible bag for travel and photography. I took it for a week in Italy where it showed its one weakness - it's almost TOO big, and the button closures that shrink the bag were nearly impossible to actually use. I agree with another review that it doesn't exactly feel premium to the touch (I have the Sage version) but it feels durable - like it will last, certainly hold up better than other nylon bags I've had. It's also an excellent pure photography bag. I take it out on hikes with a Mamiya RB67, an extra lens, tripod, film, filters, along with the hiking essentials, and with the hipbelt, it carries 20+ lbs very comfortably, all while being easy to get on and off and gain access to for photos. I recommend the bag to anyone looking for a "one bag fits almost all" solution.

Near Perfect All rounder bag
on December 11, 2019
Posted by: Darius
I was looking for a new bag I could use everyday to carry my camera gear and potentially a bit extra. I was pleasantly surprised even after watching all the review videos. I can definitely see myself using it for all kinds of situations from everyday carry to traveling on holiday. That being said I don't mind how big it is (even when compressed) while I can imagine others may find it too big for everyday carry.
The only critique I would have is I wish it could be compressed smaller just as an option but that is asking a lot as it is intended as a travel bag.
Overall a very versatile bag that gives me a lot of options for my freelancer lifestyle ^_^

Bought this bag to be my main pack for a two week trip to Scotland and Ireland. it fit all of my clothes perfectly and allowed me to know have to check a bag on the plane rides. Fits tonnes of stuff when combined with the small and medium packing cubes and i wouldn't trade it for anything

Amazing Travel Backpack
on December 26, 2019
Posted by: Priscilla
I have been on the hunt for quite some time for a backpack for travelling. I had done a fair amount of research for my upcoming trip to Europe. When I saw the review video on this one- I knew it was the one! Not only was it EXTREMELY functional, but it also had the sleakest design pf any I was looking into. The communication from the company as soon as I placed my order, while it was in transit, and as it arrived was phenomenal and did not go unnoticed. Once it arrived I was extremely pleased with the high quality of every feature of the bag. My bf is now very jealous and considering replacing his with this one!

My peak design bag was the best I've ever owned, until I bought the V2
on December 28, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
I've owned the V1 travel bag, and the messenger. Love them both for work and day-to-day trips. Planning an international trip in 2020 and wanted to get all my gear across the pond; so i sprung for the bigger V2. With a camera cube with a small and medium packing cube i'm able to fit my Mamiya RZ67, film back, lens, etc. along with my DSLR, lenses, cards, a seagull TLR and a light meter... the packing cubes and the toiletry bag take care of the smells and styles. All of which fit into a carry-on. I'm sold!
