A friend if mine told me to look into PD when I had mentioned that I was shopping for backpacks. She told me that she suspected I would really like PD products because of the detail and function. I hadn't heard of the brand before, so i started browsing online. I liked what I saw, but it was only after I found the Everyday backpack in a retail store, and got to see/touch/play/experience it in person, and it was then I realized I had to go for it. The things that I didn't see while browsing online were the small details: Magnet closures on pockets and for the straps, hidden pockets in areas I didn't see online, the keychain/device strap, and just the overall quality of construction—incredible.
I now also have: Tech pouch, Wash pouch, Shoe pouch, and iPhone case + wallet—all of equal quality. I'm obviously becoming a real live fanboy. ;)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very solid backpack

I originally had the V1, which was replaced under warranty after 4 years after part of a zipper broke. The new bag is just a really solid improvement on the original. Better straps and better interior flaps in particular

Fantastic camera (and more!) bag

I love this backpack for its versatility and the high quality of the build materials. There are almost too many configurations for how it can be used, which is a good problem to have (unless you suffer from analysis paralysis). One of the best features is the lifetime warranty, which I took advantage of in upgrading from the V1 Everyday Backpack. One nitpick I have is that the top rear pocket, in the laptop compartment, gets a little tough to slide my hand into if the main compartment is particularly full. That's a minor issue, though, and I love this backpack, and would enthusiastically recommend it to anyone.

Best bag I've ever owned

I bought this bag two weeks ago to become my everyday carry and camera bag while on the road. So far, I'm thoroughly pleased with it, and honestly, I'm still learning all the pockets and features. The magnetic straps and pockets are my favorite feature.

Really, really convenient as a photo backpack

I just got back from my first trip with my new 30 L backpack. I enjoyed incredible access to everything with the openings provided. I was carrying my Z 8 camera, with the Nikon 14-24, 24-70, and 70-200 2.8 zooms which are not small, my Pentax K3 monochrome camera with a single lens, my Kase filters, my Gitzo travel tripod in the side pocket, and a few other things. I found that even with all of that stuff, I only had to open ONE zipper, or the top opening to get instant access to whatever I wanted. My only criticism is that the strap which holds the tripod in the side pocket is oriented at an angle upwards, and while it held the tripod securely it allowed just a bit more movement than I would like. This is my second photo backpack, and it is head and shoulders above my other one in quality, design, and ease of use. Definitely recommend this backpack to anyone!

The best Smart backpack on the market
on June 13, 2024

The backpack maintains the excellent quality that its ancestor the V1 model already had, it has several improvements such as the spring side keychain, improved straps, magnetic supports in the shoulder straps that allow the backpack to stay in order when carried with the side sleeve. The only drawback, I found the internal pockets really small, I often find it difficult even to insert batteries and accessories a little longer, I would have preferred to have the same space as you have on the V1 model.
I have read many reviews that negatively evaluate the space for the laptop and the shoulder straps including the backrest, but I find it brilliant and excellent for both lumbar and shoulder support, the space for the laptop is extremely Smart.
Note for Peak's kids, better adjust and organize the inside pockets of the bag and reset the lumbar strap (model 30L) already included in the backpack as in the V1 model. For the rest you are great.
