Some great, some meh

Generally a goodish bag, the inside pockets which can be accessed from both sides are really handy. I just love the front panel, the water bottle pockets and the hidden pocketsI find the straps super-comfortable!
The not so good to really terrible things:
1. The sternum strap and hip belt are just totally useless, due to the closure.
2. The extra attachment straps come off too easily, nice pocket for hiding them though, i could live without it to save weight.
3. It is too heavy.
4. The side zippers are hard to access and again, would get rid to save weight
5. The thingies to compress the top don't work, when loaded they come off all the time
6. The grab handles could be longer to be able to easier grab

My everyday camera bag
on September 20, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
I have had this bag since the kickstarter launch and it has become an indesspensible part of my gear. I rotate through two small camera cubes and the medium cube. Each cube is stocked for different types of shoots and I rotate them based on what I need to bring with me. The back has come with me on all my local shoots and is great to throw open and grabbing the gear I need. It is comfortable and built very well. I have traveled internationally with it with no problems in planes, trains, or busses. The secure zippers are awesome. I usually bring a small camera cube an the medium travel pack with the tech pouch. Incredible product.

I love this bag
on March 22, 2019

I got my 20L everyday backpack stolen from my car at the end of last year and was devastated as I used it for, well, everything! So when I went to replace it, I wanted to get something that would allow me to use it for every day use, but also be my suitcase when traveling. And it just so happened that Peak Design had come out with this bag just as I was looking! Being able to go between a 30L and 45L bag is excellent, and it accommodates for quite a bit. The only thing I would say is I wish there were more "form" to the inside in a normal layout, as in pockets or some sort of dividers that can be tucked away like the internal pocket flap that add a bit more organization to it.

Love this bag's versatility. Waste strap was designed for thin people :(

Only complaint is the waist strap is not long enough for me to use. I'm a 38" waist and can't extend the straps out to clasp. Maybe they sell an extension but feel this was an oversight.
I still gave it a 5 star review as the rest of the features and options are amazing and we'll executed. I travel with varying camera systems from DSLR to medium format with anything from 1 -5 lenses. I like to scale my system up and down depending trip length.
Wish list for future versions. A quick deployable rain fly like the old Loepro AW Pro used to have. Could deploy from where tripod straps are with minimal weight. Guess I could carry one but always forget until you need it.

Great Large Everyday Bag

I have been using my Peak Design bag almost every day for my daily commute to school, carrying my A7III with a 24-70mm, a 70-200mm, and a 16" Macbook Pro. While it seems like a normal bag, the inside is full of features that really make it a great functional bag. The camera cube integration, as well as all the organizers, make sure all of my stuff is safe and sound. The clamshell opening makes everything easy to pack and organize but you still use it as a normal top-entry bag as well. The straps are thick and comfy and the hardware everywhere is super nice. On top of all that, I ride a motorcycle every day and find it very comfy on rides from 10 minutes to 3 hours. The fabric is easily cleanable and everything has held up great so far. If you are hesitant about this bag, I would highly recommend it.

All that and a bag of chips...
on July 1, 2019

Just spent 2 weeks living out of the pack in Northern Europe. Carries well and held everything, with expansion room on the return trip for gifts. Is baggage handler repellent and designed to keep the back panel upright so that if you do check it, the back-panel stays clean. Well thought out trim with a place for everything. Easy size for maneuvering on trains and buses and I brought a rain cover and never needed it as the fabric sheds water well.The padding allows the bag to keep its shape and yet the frame-less design tucks well into bins and allows smashing as needed. Works with other brand cubes/pack it pouches easily. This handled it all.

Great but also terrible
on December 5, 2018

Fits everything perfectly. Great for travel. But wear it fully loaded (medium camera cube with gear, pouches, laptop, some clothes) for more than 30 minutes and your shoulders are done. I have the everyday 30 liter and those straps are even worse. I was excited when I was watching the hangouts during the course of the Kickstarter, learning they updated the straps so I pulled the trigger on one. Now I'm sad I did cause I can't return it. I could've easily purchased this bag from an online retailer and recieved it at the same time AND had the option to get my hands on it and have the option to return it if need be. I also backed for the duffle, so I hope that shoulder strap will have some more padding...Overall, if you need to get a fair amount of gear from point A to B and don't plan on walking around with it at the location you're visiting OR simply don't fully load it, then it'll be a great bag. Minus 1 star for each strap.
