Brilliantly designed, great quality bag

I've had this bag for about two months, and I'm very pleased with it. I've been using it for my daily commute, as well as for international travel - the dimensions are ideal for a small under-seat airline carry-on item, at least here in Europe, where the measurements fit neatly within the quoted sizes for the likes of Easyjet and Jet2. The bag is great quality, and superbly and thoughtfully designed. It also looks fantastic - I even had someone at the airport compliment it and ask where I got it, along with the matching duffle that I have in the same colour, Eclipse.
Best features: Sturdy, stylish, perfect size. Lots of useful pockets. Thoughtfully and practically designed. The internal dividers are excellent, they're light as a feather yet very rigid and cleverly designed so they can be configured all sorts of ways. I love the magnetic closure on all be pockets, including the main compartment.
Negatives: Very few. I guess the large number of pockets means there can seem like there's a lot of bag at the expense of internal space, but the dividers help with this by holding the interior open. The side pockets are shallow and high up, which is functionally very useful, but filling them can render the bag awkwardly top-heavy. My main complaint though is that the shoulder strap is very slippy and regularly falls off my shoulder, it could do with being rubberised or otherwise grippier to prevent slipping.
I love the size of this shopping bag. It comes in various colours and I have them all. I love the weight and how it does not take up too much space in my bag. I love that it has a zipper. I can easily carry it on my shoulder.
I LOVE this bag. I haven't had luck with PD backpacks, but this tote is PERFECT for carrying 3 lenses and a large camera body. I appreciate the durable material, light weight, and cute design. However, I also carry a laptop (15 inch), and it's a PAIN getting it in to the bag with a camera in there. If the bag were a touch taller and a touch deeper/wider (to better accommodate a laptop AND camera gear) it would be perfect! Might also be nice to have a water bottle option.
Absurdly perfect. No bells or whistles (I’m not a professional photographer, I just have groceries and stuff). Light as a feather, strong as steel. Fits a grocery bags worth of cans without a pause. Easy to clean, wonderful shoulder strap. Fits under the airline seat. Enough space for a week of travel. Ideal. I have three - but one does it all! And it is inexpensive enough to give as a gift to many people!
I love my Everyday Tote. I would like a longer “shoulder strap” so I can more easily carry as a cross-body. Another idea is to create an adapter that has the shoulder strap clip to an anchor so you can use a Peak Design camera strap.
The Everyday Tote is my new favorite PD bag, especially for commuting/EDC/travel. It's more versatile than the Messenger given its slightly larger volume and external organization, while also being nominally more secure and more weatherproof. It works just as well as a camera bag as the Messenger.
It is built to the same standards as all PD bags—so durable fabric, smooth zippers, and double-stitched in places you'd want it to be. It holds up well when loaded, doesn't crumple when empty, and in almost every instance sits upright no matter how it's packed.
The only improvements I would like to see are a more robust Camera Clip mount like you get on the Everyday Sling and a slightly wider laptop opening just to make stowing easier; otherwise it is an excellent and thoroughly underrated bag.
