I bought this bag after doing research for weeks. After two trips with it I can say it's one of the best designed things I've ever owned. It fit everything I would need for any length of trip, it fit as a carry on on the plane, and every time I got into it I found a new design feature to be in aw of. If you need a carryon back that will never quit, this is the one.

Awesome purchase

Other than looking awesome, this bag is perfect for when you know you're just bringing your camera and maybe a lens, extra battery, and a snack. It's great to have a smaller option for little trips or hikes. It's comfortable and I like that I can wear it around my waist to take the pressure off my shoulders...not as a fanny pack, but as a stylish bag that I wear on my fanny. ;) this brand is freaking dynamite.

The Amazing 45L travel backpack
on July 12, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
I absolutely love my new 45L travel backpack, it has amazing conveniences, it's constructed of tough material, and it's more versatile than any other travel bag I've owned. It offers wonderful packing capabilities, especially utilizing Peak's available accessories, and it creates an abundance of options for both short and long trips. I knew nothing of Peak Design's products, conducted my own research prior to purchase, and I'm thoroughly impressed.

Did my 2 months backpacking in Europe. It was the only bag i took with me. So reliable for me to carry all my stuffs on the road and extremely easy to unpack the extra load ( since everything is properly managed ) and have only the light weight bag to have tour in the countries

Travel Tested

I've used this for two international trips (one long haul and one short), plus for going to various local photo shoots. For travel, in the 35L configuration, it fit perfectly in the overhead bin of an A319 and A320. I use it with the Medium Cube, which holds several lenses, my main camera, and backup body. All of the pockets are amazing! When going through airport screening, you can easily put away your phone and everything else in the pockets for scanning. The side pockets hold a tripod and water bottles really. The laptop compartment is spacious and there's a smaller secondary compartment for tablets. For travel and walking about at airport terminals, it's perfect. I wouldn't use it for hiking though because the shoulder straps aren't padded enough. But hiking isn't what this is made for; it's a pure travel backpack and it works really well!

Solid and Versatile
on July 21, 2019

I purchased this bag for a recent trip to Ecuador. I didn't want to check a bag, but knew I had to pack a suit for a wedding. This was the perfect solution.
The harness system feels great on my back. The added support from the hip straps and the chest strap helped a lot, and they were easy to tuck away when I didn't need them. I also really liked how I can fold the magnetic flaps under for extra padding on my back. I tucked the internal divider into its compartment and used my new PD Packing Cubes and packed ALL of my clothes for a 2 week trip to Ecuador (including suit and dress shoes).
Not only does this bag have the capacity to carry a lot, but it also has the internal organization to keep everything in its place. And the hidden pocket behind the water bottle sleeve came in handy.
This bag is really well-designed and you can tell that a lot of thought went into making it.
