The Near-Perfect Backpack - Functional, Transformative, and Clean - Caters To Your Needs

I was anticipating loving this backpack even before it arrived. When it finally did, I was not disappointed. It's an amazing backpack with great quality shown throughout.
It has everything, and can cater to any user: everyday carrier, world traveler, digital nomad, camera professional, etc. It has so many features that can be used or put aside depending on your need for the a specific day or trip.
This bag will make you excited to travel and get work done. It's also nice just knowing you have something so reliable.
The only criticism I have has already been echoed throughout other reviews, and that is: the weight and straps. These kind of go hand-in-hand, but the backpack is a bit heavier due to materials and the straps could be a bit larger or more padded. However, with some smarter packing and minimalism, it can be overlooked given this bag is still 5 stars in performance.
Thank you Peak Design, for your thoughtfulness and innovation.

The one and only for my travelling

This backup solved my problems of how to get camera gear, computer and clothes in a compact and smart form factor. There simply was no other backpack out there that was designed so well - and I've really been through countless websites to find my backpack. Now I'm about to go on a world trip with this bag uploading to YouTube as often as I can. Your bag will definitely at some point be highlighted: https://youtube.com/thomaskjems And it already is, check the photo.
I'm trying my hardest to think about anything bad to write - maybe I'll have something for you when I use it every single day for the next 1,5 years or more. I'll give you a heads up. For now, thanks for creating such a great product - I know I paid for it but you still designed it. So thanks for that.
Cheers, Thomas
I would recommend this to a friend!

The best backpack for me !

I bought this backpack because i really like the everyday backpack 20L, I used that for many years and still in perfect conditions, but that one was to small for me so I decided to buy this travel backpack and it’s just perfect for me, I can use it in a lot of situations, of course traveling, but since I like to drive motorcycle and I have to go to university, this backpack allow me to bring everything with me.
It’s durable Environmental friendly Easy to access from any pocket 30L and you can expand it to 45 ( not so big and not so small). there si so much detail in this backpack so I keep looking for new things of this one. Overall y love it and for me it world perfectly.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Lacks some essential features of other bags

I bought this 45L coyote travel backpack and I'm disappointed with the material. In the photos, it looked more like a military tan. Instead, it's golden tan and reflects light because it's shiny.
It's a good size, and the fact that it can be converted to a 30L is great. The zippers are still good quality. The interior of the bag and the pockets are top-notch.
However, I also own a 30L every day backpack, and I think they've removed some cool features. For example, there are no magnets for the side pockets (for a tripod or water bottle) or for the laptop/iPad (it has Velcro and diminishes the quality of the product). There are none on the shoulder straps. Therefore, the shoulder straps are loose and don't look as clean. Additionally, there are no interior side pockets, which could be very useful for storing small items.
So, it would be wise to add these useful features, which are already present on your other bags, to a V2 to ensure that your bags remain a renowned and high-quality brand.

Hate the bag
on August 24, 2025

I love the backpack size and portability. One of the reasons I bought it was for the waist and chest load lifters so it doesn’t strain my shoulders. I hate it, there are no buckles. They have metal little hooks and it is really hard to remember where and how to unhook the metal hooks.
