One-bag travel in style
on April 2, 2024
Posted by: dge
from Chicago, IL
I bought the 45l travel backpack for one-bag travel for work. It easily handles 3-day trips and I can go up to a week in a pinch—even with a suit. Everything is well thought out and constructed and the shoulder/hip strap storage is genius. The compression snaps make it a usable day pack once I leave the clothes at my hotel, but I do recommend a packable tote for items you want at your seat on the plane
I love the sage color with the wash bag and tech bag accessories. The bag has very clean lines and a professional look, despite being a backpack. I do wish the external top pouch was a bit bigger but it is a minor concern.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Finally a world exploration bag fit for the name!

I owned a Tortuga backpack prior to owning this bag. I decided to get a new travel back because my Tortuga bag (which is more expensive) had the webbing in the shoulder straps come apart. Tortuga's lifetime warranty doesn't actually cover the cost of a new bag nor are they able to repair it if it is an old model. So basically it turns out to be a garbage warranty. The warranty is much better worded with Peak Design!
This bag exceeds my expectations in every single way! It is truly amazing. It has the ability to compress 5L, expand to hold I think 10 more L from its neutral state. You can cleverly tuck away the shoulder straps and hip straps. (Although I wish the magnets were a bit stronger). You can lash large and awkward items to the outside with hidden lash straps. You can get into the bag from every angle and you can also lock down the bag to make sure it is secure and no-one will be able to enter the bag without real effort.
I wish this was the bag I had found years ago. When I travel, I do carry on only, overseas trips that last 2-3 weeks. This bag is my home away from home and it can handle every challenge that I would throw at it. Although I'm not an extreme traveller, I do utilize the bag to a pretty full extent and I'm happy with it on all of its fronts. Honestly, there is nothing I would change except for a desire of stronger magnets all around. Zippers are top notch, fabric is top notch, features are top notch. I can just go on and on.
This bag is worth every single penny. Other named brands don't compete when you have the ability to hold them in your hands side by side.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bye Bye Cobbles!
on April 23, 2024
Posted by: Phil
from Manchester, UK
I travel a lot with work, often visiting places for 2-3 days at a time. I’ve always carried a backpack and a separate pull along carryon suitcase. A recent location had a cobbled street, and this was my tipping point. After dragging the wheelie suitcase over the cobbles, I dived straight into researching alternative travel systems. I like to be thorough in my research, so around a year later, lots of blog reviews and countless YouTube videos, I finally decided on this backpack.
I could not be more pleased. Did it cost a lot? Yes, I went all in and got the medium, small and shoe packing cubes, plus the tech and wash pouches. But it all works wonderfully together. Having just one bag to deal with is a game changer. I mostly use the train for travel and it fits nicely overhead, and I’m not having to put a suitcase far away on a luggage rack or drag it through the aisle. I also recently used the backpack on an international trip, and I had what I can only describe as a smug feeling having just one bag to deal with on the flight as I didn’t have to check-in a case, and the bag was cabin bag sized, I actually felt like I’d forgotten to do something as it was all just a bit too easy.
Was it worth it? I’ve only been using for a few weeks, but so far, I think so.
Potential downsides to be aware of, the bag in itself is heavy, when fully loaded it’s obviously a lot heavier. For me, I’m not walking for hours with it on my back, it’s moving from planes, trains, busses, cars, offices and home with short walks in between, so it’s a non-issue. Another thing is that when in ‘compact’ mode, that is using the two press studs at the top to ‘pull it in a bit”, I’ve noticed if the main compartment is full/heavy, these buttons have popped back open. The only impact this has is looks. All the other features completely outweigh this for me, particularly the large bottle holders on both sides of the pack and after watching the product videos the ‘pro tips’ have come in useful too.
If Peak Design read this. I’d love you to design / recommend a small laptop backpack that would fit inside this somewhere. So when reaching a destination I can pull this out to carry a laptop, notepad pen and charger around, without having to use the full backpack.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best product

I bought this backpack a while ago and the truth is that I am very happy. The quality is excellent, you can barely feel it when you touch it.
It is very comfortable to carry it on your back and with all the pockets. It is very wide. I use it on each of my trips.

Amazing build quality and features!

Amazing build quality as always, the side access pockets are super useful to quickly grab something out of the bag without having to unzip the entire back access. I also really like the expanding front pocket. The divider and pockets are super useful especially being accessible from each side. Deep side pockets for tripods and long/large water bottles. Really the only downsides are the height of the bag, which makes it almost impossible to store under aircraft seat(although reducing this would reduce capacity), the fact that the laptop pocket seems like a bit of an afterthought, and unless you’re just throwing all your stuff in the large pocket, you do have to spend money on packing cubes, but as long as you are aware beforehand !

Great purchase

It is a great backpack, large and durable. I wanted to replace my eight-year-old backpack with it.
I use it as an everyday backpack because I like to put many things in my bag. It will also be an excellent companion when I travel overseas.
