Qualità e versatilità allo stato dell'arte
on April 14, 2019
Posted by: Paolo
Zaino progettato e costruito in maniera eccellente, accessibile frontalmente, posteriormente e lateralmente, grazie agli ottimi accessori "camera cube" si trasforma in un perfetto zaino fotografico, nella dimensione media ci sta tutto il mio corredo Fuji (X Pro2, !6mm, 27mm, 35mm, 90mm, 50-140mm e vari accessori), utilizzando invece i packing cube diventa un eccellente zaino da viaggio con durata di una settimana ed oltre.

Truly thoughtful design pays off

I bought the Travel Backpack, in black, to carry my mirrorless camera gear, which it does very well. But I came to appreciate just how versatile it is, and how well it lives up to its name, when I recently needed to pack for a five day Europe trip with limited stowage, to contest a classic car rally. Staying in big hotels meant rooms a long way from the desk, so a backpack would be useful. Limited time out of the car meant organising everything to minimise time spent changing etc. Step forward, a large and a small packing cube, which held, respectively, shirts, tops and trousers, and smalls, socks and handkerchiefs, for all six days. You only appreciate how good these are when you realise they keep all your dirty linen separate and come up the same size as you started with, making repacking each morning a dream..The bag lived in a dirty boot, so the rain fly became a dust cover. Nothing broke, jammed or caused a second of delay. In a word, perfect. Back home, a camera bag again in two minutes. We have another trip this week and this is now my go to bag. Time to get a wash pouch too...

A new way to travel, for me.

I've used a backpacking backpack many times previously. However, never a backpack for traveling (vacations). I was able to get an entire weeks of clothing in the 45L pack using the medium and small packing cubes. I used the Medium camera cube for my photo gear instead of taking the 20l or 30Lpacks. I used the slide light strap and anchor clips to carry the medium camera cube. The camera cube fit under my airplane seat and the 45L when in the over head. Perfect.

This is 'The' Travel Backpack
on April 21, 2019
Posted by: Justin
I'm going to start our with saying The Peak Design Travel Backpack is the most comfortable large backpack I've ever owned. I can easily take a week vacation with this one and not worry about space. Checking luggage is in the past with this backpack. It's versatile. Lot's of options. It gives you the power to come up with creative ways to store things. I'm not going to use this every day but if I'm going anywhere be it for a weekend or a week or so I know I'm going to be happy with this backpack.

One-bag travel delight
on April 24, 2019
Posted by: Braxton
So this is a large backpack. Being able to compress it down to taper the top helps give the appearance of a smaller bag. Nevertheless, my wife takes photos of me and sends it to her mother proclaiming, "look at the turtle I married". And I don't care. Laugh it up - because this bag is a dream to use :) The straps are comfortable and fold away neatly.. Access, access, access...use this in an organized manner with packing cubes and other considered cases and you'll get to exactly what you need when you need it. The concealed external carry straps have saved me numerous times. The deep secure side pockets provide quick access to a water bottle and can also conceal tickets or boarding passes for quick access in places where you feel safe doing so.
The quick access pocket at the top could be slightly larger to help fit boarding passes etc.. but it holds all my wearables and phone when going through security so serves its purpose. The bag has just the right balance of rigidity and softness. You can squeeze it into an overhead when necessary but it doesn't flop all over the place when being packed. Oh and packing is a pure delight with the large opening on both the top, bottom, and sides (remember - access, access, access).
Love it.

Great bag with one serious con
on April 30, 2019
Posted by: Tomek
I am using the bag for couple of months now. Took it on several flight trips. Never had any problems to take it as carry-on.
In general I really like it:
- ton of space, versatile
- great inside organization
- well-thought-out pockets
- feel very solid
- great zippers; not YKK but I still have a lot of confidence for them
- additional straps to attach extra gear
- truly waterproof; I have been testing it in really heavy rain
HOWEVER the bag has one huge disadvantage:
- shoulder straps are just not comfortable. When the bag is fully packed like 45 liters; carrying just hurts!
I know what was the idea here; possibility to hide the straps and have the look of a duffel but I would really trade this option for comfortable
straps (good example of perfect shoulder straps is Boundary Supply and theirs Errant backpack; very different bag but has the greatest shoulder straps on the market).
If this will be fixed in the next iteration I think this might be the perfect travel backpack, right now is ALMOST perfect.

Great travel pack!
on May 1, 2019
Posted by: MIke
Bought this to replace my old travel pack, and spent 2 weeks in Morocco with it. Just an awesome bag with no real cons from my perspective. Zippers, compartments, etc. are all thoughfully laid out. Water bottle holders on the side expand to hold a large Nalgene. Quickly accessible pouches, grab handles everywhere, stow-away straps, multiple expansion/config options are all great. Loved this bag, it was just a joy to use.

Exceeds Expectations
on May 3, 2019
Posted by: Steven
So often you see a product online that looks amazing and high quality, and then you get your hands on it and experience instant disappointment; akin to the fast food ad effect. This travel backpack is no such case. This thing feels incredibly solid and well designed/constructed. The features are awesome. The look is surprisingly sleek. The hidden straps are great. This bag makes me want to travel more just to get to use it.
