Worth Every Penny
on August 13, 2019
Posted by: Sam H
While this bag may be quite the investment, it is invaluable to my daily life. I am constantly on the move, usually traveling for a week at a time before returning home. I can fit everything I need (organized!) in this bag.
The space is perfectly adequate for a week long trip, and the optional expansion means you can fit a ridiculous amount of stuff (at risk of looking like you are wearing a suitcase on your back). The exterior straps/lashes are good in case you need to tack on a tripod, sleeping bag, bushel of corn, whatever.
The build quality is also good, I haven't ran into any issues with it.
The convenience of the side straps and side access is severely underrated, but if you keep an organized main compartment, nothing you own is more than three seconds away. The bag can be picked up and moved around from any angle at any time.
Yes, it's pricy, and no, it's not for everyone. I was looking for a one-time purchase that would work for "one-bag" travel needs, and I need not look further.

An amazing travel companion!

I own many PD products and have learned to trust their quality and keen eye for design, and I was not disappointed by this purchase! I recently spent two weeks in Rio and this bag was awesome! While I didn't use this as my EDC, it got all my camera gear and more there safely. Once at the hotel I was able to use the 10L Sling for my daily excursions. I would 100% recommend this bag to anybody who is looking for an all purpose, customizable, very well constructed travel backpack!

A multi-functional travel backpack

I got this before I go to climb the Mt.Fuji in Japan. I'm looking for a multi-functional backpack which can be waterproof and put all the stuff such as tripod, cameras.
At last I found this and I brought it to Mt. Fuji. I'm so happy that I have a nice trip with this bag.

One bag Travel
on August 14, 2019

Been looking for a bag to travel with just one carry on. First off, I do not haul any photography equipment. I'm just a traveller looking for the best bag possible to travel carry on. Been to over 30+ countries so I know exactly what I'm looking for in a bag. I'm sure the peak design travel bag is amazing for photographers, but it is also amazing for someone looking for a durable travel bag that can fit pretty much everything.
Looking forward for other products that peak design has to offer in the future.

Wish I could love this but couldn't

I really wanted to love this pack, but had a number of issues. These are the main ones:
1. It is long, so the bottom of the pack bounces on my buttocks a bit when walking. The only way to prevent this is to cinch the shoulder straps so they were uncomfortably tight, which causes the lower part of the back panel to lift off my back. I'm a 5'7” male and don't have an unusually short back - all the Tortuga packs fit me fine, for example. I'd like to see an adjustable back panel, or a wider pack that allows a shorter back without affecting capacity.
2. The waist belt doesn't give that much support, presumably because it is designed to fold away. But when folded away, it made the back feel lumpy, even after adjusting it a lot.
3. The shoulder straps and back have minimal padding, which was good for keeping it compact and was fine for short trips, but made it less comfy when wearing for long periods.
4. In the 45L capacity, it sticks out much further than other packs of that size, putting a lot of the weight far from your body. Combined with the minimal padding, this makes it feel heavier than it should. I'm also concerned that it is technically over the carry-on size in this format, which is not necessary - several other brands have 45L carry-on bags. Again, this could be solved by making it a bit wider.
The tech pouch, packing cube and (to a lesser extent) the wash bag are great though.

I have all sorts of camera bags.
But I haven't seen anything better than this bag yet.
The quality of the product is the best. I recommend this product to the people around me.
