So this is my second 30L Everyday Backpack. My first one (the first edition) I bought and used almost daily for 6 years and then the zipper broke on me. I emailed Peak about and they sent me this, brand new one. This will hopefully hold up for the rest of the decade. atleast! Perfect as a carry-on backpack or for a short weekend trip. Especially like the quick access (and very padded) computer department.
I bought the 30 L everyday pack about 5 years ago to replace briefcases etc when traveling and working. It has been the most amazing pack allowing me to keep my travel gear Chargers battery packs Etc locked away in the side compartments giving me complete use of the main compartment for camera gear, computer, Clothing whatever I used at that time. If I ever need to replace it I will definitely look at the current products again period
I really appreciate the functionality of this bag and its ability to carry all my essentials. However, I have noticed that the shoulder straps are quite thin, which makes the bag uncomfortable to carry for extended periods. It would be great if the straps had more padding for added comfort.
This bag is the perfect combination of functionality and durability. I have used it extensively on airplanes, and it fits nicely under the front seat. It is very water resistant, and even when it's soaked by the rain, my laptop remained dry, and the other compartments had only minor dampness.
It can also be easily used as a single bag for traveling, as the customizable compartments can easily become 1 unified space, accessible from 3 sides.
I have been using it for the last 6 months and this has been one of the most versatile bag i have used. The flexible compartments suit any outing with or without camera. The shell holds up and I've received compliments on the design from strangers.
I've tried multiple bags and this bag is the best one I have found!! It holds my gear perfectly and the quality is unmatched! Peak has literally thought of everything with this design and it makes shooting on the go so much easier!! It's comfortable and practical, everything I look for in a bag! They nailed it...10/10 recommend!!
This is since I got the bag my every day backpack! Perfect to go to work and fit my laptop, lunchbox, tech pouch. In the weekends when I'm out shooting the dividers help me to carry my camera, lenses and drone. No worries when rain surprises me, it's just weatherproof. Love this bag.
I love Peak Design and will still buy their products. But please consider these for next iterations!
1. The luggage slot on this bag goes in sideways. This is inconvenient because 1). one side of the bag is unreachable, 2). accessing the top back slit pocket results in contents falling out and 3). the slot to put the luggage handle through is larger than my luggage bags, resulting in a slide from side to side making it difficult to balance the bag.
2. The bag does not fully open from the back. while it is okay most of the time, it is much more practical to be able to pull the whole back part out to access contents, especially if it's in the middle of the middle (not easily accessible from the sides or the top).
Otherwise the bag is sturdy, looks great, has many features and I still use it everyday.
