2 for practically 5 for looks and quality

5 stars for quality and design but only 2 for practicality.
Have had the 20L version for a while and use for work. The main compartment is fine, especially with the dividers removed, if a little lacking in places to put things.
The main issue is the back portion where the laptop goes, which is just too snug. My 14 Mac just slides in, with difficulty due to a short top zip, but once in there is no room for anything else. Kindle. Nope. iPad. Nope. Even though there is nominal pockets for them.
So ultimately I’m going to have to sell because for anyone with more than a small superthin laptop it’s an absolute pain. Looks great though.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bag with design flaw
on January 22, 2026
Posted by: Alan

The bag is good quality and well designed to be functional. However, I returned it because the bag has one major flaw. The giant metal pocket zipper on inner side of the flaps is rubbing against the glass on the camera lens and other side is rubbing against my camera LCD when I put my camera with lens mounted in the middle compartment. Even if it’s just a lens without camera, it’s rubbing against the glass of my lens. They should have used all magnetic clasps like the upper pockets. The exposed metal zipper is a major design flaw and shouldn’t be there especially for carrying camera gear.

I can’t in good conscience keep this bag or recommend this bag when there are so many others that meet or exceed it for half the price…
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Hopefully the openings are wider and easier to open thanks. It is really hard to find the serial number.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have just received my 15L everyday zip backpack. Quality is excellent and the bag has a lot of packing options with plenty of pockets and compartments to fit everything from drones, cameras, tripod, etc. a must have item.

Very meticulously and intelligently designed, awesome backpack
on December 3, 2019

Little bit about myself for context. My work requires me to travel an overnight trip once a week. I travel for business meetings, so I need to pack a suit plus regular clothes. During my meetings, I'm typically presenting through my computer, which involves having a MBP, batteries, cables, dongles, ipad, notebook, etc.
I've been on the hunt for a single travel backpack given my needs. I don't want to travel with a daypack and duffle or suitcase. I purchased the 20L Everyday Zip and I think it's almost perfect, like 90% of the way there. The main compartment is large enough that I can use a PD medium packing cube to fit all my clothes and there's still a bit of space on top for a small toiletries bag. The smaller side pockets make it easy to store extra cables and cards I don't frequently access. The laptop compartment has little spaces for everything, including the MBP, iPad, charging cables, dongles, extra cables, and pens. The backpack is also super comfortable and relatively light. This is all great great stuff and I truly do enjoy this backpack.
Here's what I'm not particularly fond of. The biggest gripe is the laptop compartment that has a very limited zipper opening. It only goes down about 2-3" on each side and makes it difficult to really see what in there. Because it's not a big opening, your hands rub against the zippers and it's not pleasant. An extra 3" would make a huge different. A small felt lined pocket on top would've been nice.
All in all, it's great!
