Perfect for my needs.

I mainly use this bag for weekend trips but I have also brought in abroad as a carry on. On one particulary long haul flight, I fell asleep with a cup of red wine in my hand, which eventually slipped and spillt all over my nice, brand new backpack. In a panic and with nothing else at hand I had to use the airline pillow to try and soak up the wine. Fortunately for me there was no need to panic though because the amazing material that this bag is made out of was more than a match for a bit of wine. This backpack is the perfect marriage of what might seem like a minimalist's bag and bag full of features. Some are so subtle, like the zipper security features and secret pockets but when traveling through busy airport, are a serious godsent.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pricy but a First Class Product

I bought this bag after watching and reading numerous review on travel backpacks. So far I have only been able to used it one time on a trip to Austin, TX, but I was truly impressed by it’s flexibility, and what it was capable of carrying. The design/engineering, materials and workmanship are first class. I am planning another trip to Dallas/Ft. Worth in about two weeks, and a trip to France in early 2023. This is the backpack I will be using. I also have one medium packing cube, two small packing cubes, the wash pouch and a shoe pouch. The quality of these items is excellent (just like the backpack), and they function great with the backpack.

Excellent quality backpack with great design

I use the Travel Backpack 45 as Weekender and short term travel backpack. It is super durable and comftiy to wear. It survived a robbery attempt, where they tried to cut through it, but without a chance and only a little scratch was left.
Additionally the peak design support/warranty is fabulous - never experienced a similar service before.
Love it.

Best bag I’ve ever owned without a doubt

I’m wanted a bag that I could use for work, travel and play, this bag is perfect. The ability to scale up and scale down the capacity is fantastic as I use less for commuting compared to long distance travel. The quality is excellent and it just feels great overall. You will find with this bag that all of the attention to detail and quality make it a great bag to own. I am happy that I spent more than I usually would for the quality that is provided.

Backpack 45L
on January 2, 2023
Posted by: GB
from Alberta, Canada
I just bought this backpack and am using it for the first time. I can’t believe how much stuff I can pack into it. There are so many great little extras incorporated into this pack. Lots of storage pockets and access zippers. The straps are quite comfortable and stow away very quickly and easily. I was able to get the large and medium cube in as well as the shoe cube. It feels very well made and I think it’s going to be my main travel bag from now on. We are on a three week trip and I don’t think I’ll need anything more than what I packed in this pack and it only weighs 20 pounds.

May not fit large busts

I so wanted to like this backpack, and in many respects I do! It’s thoughtfully designed, practical, and sturdy. Tragically, the straps just don’t sit right on my bust (38DDD) and cause the straps to abrade the sides of my neck when I walk. If there was an option to add “s” curve straps, that would make this bag perfect.

Excellent All Around Bag

I recently took the 45L Travel Backpack on a trip to Maui and it was amazing! There is plenty of organization pockets and storage space, but most importantly the wide access zipper made getting to everything you need very easy. I was even able to fit the bag in it's compressed form under the Southwest airplane seat so that I could have an additional carry on bag. We did a trip up to Mt. Haleakala and needed to pack cold clothes, snacks and water bottle for myself and my two young kids. The expansion zippers made it very easy to get everything we needed in. Even though it can store a lot of gear its ergonomic design did not make it feel bulky or heavy. I was very impressed by every detail and quality of this bag. I would highly recommend it!

heavy but overall good

it weighs more than the typical backpack, but it’s very rugged and can withstand a lot of abuse. i wish the zip pockets of the waist belt were more centered so you can look down to see what you’re grabbing. currently they are on the sides.
