20L v2 is perfect - and I'm 6'2"

I purchased my v1 EDB back when PD was running their Kickstarter campaign back in 2015, and due to a manufacturing issue with the original Ash fabric which surfaced in 2023, PD, true to their lifetime warranty, sent me a replacement
Totally stoked that they sent me a v2 20L EDB, and I have to say that this new version has refinements that make it a true everyday backpack for me
First off, the top flap now sits more like a box-top, giving the bag a more boxy shape (which I love) as opposed to the older flap design that sloped downwards (which I felt ruined the aesthetic of the bag).
The v2 also looks smaller than the v1, and has a more compact silhouette. The elasticized key strap is simple but such a welcome improvement, and I can say the same for the inclusion of the magnets to keep the straps in place - genius
The 20L v2 fits my 2016 Dell XPS 15 laptop just right, but I wouldn't stuff in an iPad as it would start getting a bit tight, making the top pocket a little hard to get to. The little pocket on the inside of the front panel is brilliant for keeping my Airpods Pro and a Lightning cable handy.
The 20L is also the perfect size - I also own a 30L v1 and it's so easy to load up too much gear into the bag, which honestly, isn't very comfortable to use when fully loaded. I have a Leica M digital body with attached lens, plus 2 lenses (in neoprene pouches) tossed in, along with my iPad mini 6, power bank, Nitecore M10 battery charger (which I use to charge 2 M10 batteries via USB with my power bank), my Steam Deck (sits vertically and reachable from side access), some snacks and a light jacket, and it's comes up to something I can haul around all day.
All in all, the 20L is great as a day bag, and I highly recommend it. PD bags are really hard-wearing (my v1 still shows no signs of wear) and they are great with their lifetime warranty, so buy with confidence!

The best backpack for various activities

I have a lot of Peak Design products but it all started with the everyday backpack. I searched for years for a backpack that was durable and had build in organisation. It's all in the Everyday backpack. Its thoughtfully designed and also allows you to customise it to your needs. I often get people asking me about my bag as it stands out but is at the same time very professional looking. The build quality is superb and the lifetime warranty really is amazing.

Great upgrade

Bought this to upgrade my V1 EDB. The little issues I had with my V1 are solved - easier to grab side handle, magnetic straps for when you thread it through your suitcase handle.

My favorite bag + warranty review
on September 23, 2023

I bought my first everyday backpack 4 years and the zipper broke a few months ago on it.
It's my favorite backpack and camera bag and I literally use it everyday. Peak Design honored the lifetime warranty on it after the zipper broke and sent a new one within days. Love it.

Pure love

Coming from an v1 that has seen Germany, Italy, Japan, China, among others, twice as many domestic destinations, and countless uses for work and conferences - I can say PD makes ridiculously good bags and am proud to say they have a forever customer in me. So happy to know there are still companies that pride themselves in great product development, stand by them, and a non-subscriber to throwaway consumerism ideals (ie. Items designed only to last a small number of years).
In terms of climate, it has survived China summers (35*C) and the Alaskan North Pole winters (-30*C). Talk about die hard. In the span of 6 years, this bag has held up remarkably well - given commonsense care. However, as an IT professional in the Bay Area my work and personal MacBook Pro 15”-16” laptops could barely fit - which is remedied in the v2. If this bag were 25L expanded, it would be perfect because I hate having to decide which two important items to not bring.
Having now used the v2, I think it’s better in most ways - such as the more accommodating laptop compartment for 16” and the mag latch flap slope being less steep allowing for a tiny bit more carrying capacity. However, the top pocket next to the laptop compartment is less useful as ever. With a laptop, that pocket can no longer fit my keys, car fob, wallet, iPhondde, and AirPods - or much of anything without a struggle.

Greatest backpack ever.

I loved my 30L (my go-to travel bag) so much I decided to get the 20L as a work bag. The 20L fits a 16” MBP very well. For me the construction and material quality and value for the money puts Peak Design above big brands like Tumi and Briggs & Riley.
