I was leery about getting, I did anyway and have to say I have had more compliments on this backpack/duffle bag. I have used three times and it works on plane trains and camping trips. The team has definitely knocked this one out of the park and I will be purchasing more stuff. Great quality and durability.

Another great bag by PD
on January 10, 2019
Posted by: Joanne
This is my third Peak Design bag and as soon as it was announced I wanted it without even seeing the features. I have ADHD and it is essential for me that everything has a place that can be quickly and easily accessed. This bag, like all of my PD bags, does that and the packing cubes are genius with their separate zipper for storing dirty items. Made both trips I have taken it on easy and organized. I prefer the backpack function over the duffel bag one because the duffel handle is on the small side and feels uncomfortable. Would have preferred something I could fit my arm through. Overall, though, it's my new favorite carry-on bag and has confirmed Peak Design as my bag of choice.

45L backpack Carry on
on January 10, 2019

Perfect size for carry on and very comfortable to carry around airports. I have just come back from a trip to Africa and had no problems at all with carry on. The only problem is weight restriction of 7kg but that is not the bags fault. Could only take one canon body and 100-400mm lens plus a few small extras including an IPad and the limit was reached. airlines are becoming more restrictive and weighing carry on luggage. Quality of bag is excellent and the pods are brilliant.

Just what I needed

I've used it on several city trips and even to commute to work. It's versatile enough for both, although commuting on a bike needs readjustment so the backpack doesn't sit to high and gets in the way of my helmet in overall this is a great piece of equipment! I love the organisation possibilities you get and the extra pouches bring peace to my neurotic ways. The next purchase to complete it all will be a strap and small camera pouch.
Thanks PeakDesign for completing my neuroticisms :) you guys rock PS: love the newsletters, they've always made me laugh.

Best Backpack Ever
on January 10, 2019
Posted by: Alessandro
What can I say?! I have got this from kickstart and it is just he perfect backpack for almost everything, the quality is top notch and if you get the full kit you can organize everything as you wish. In the main compartment I can fit the medium camera bag, the small packing cube and the tech pouch, and I can still fit the large packing cube in the other pocket! I will get the small camera bag as well in the future to be even more flexible! If you are looking for all the features go on YouTube and check the 10 hours video this guys uploaded and You'll have all your answers. I have used this to travel and I'm not going back to trolleys anymore.

PAC for Adventure
on January 10, 2019

This is the perfect bag for traveling having adventures with a photo equipment. The size is perfect for flying but its capacity is still impressive. The shoulder straps are long enough for winter tours with a thick jacket. The only thing that could be improved are the plastic rings maintaining the ends of the shoulder straps. A great product that I warmly recommend.

Best Carry-On

As per always, Peak Design thinks through every detail with their products. I bought this as a way to reduce keep things simple as a grab-and-go pack for trips. Depending on the length of the trip, I bring this but supplement it with a small duffel for longer trips (Patagonia 40L or 60L depending on trip/gear required).
I like how modular Peak Design made this bag and that it works so well with all of it's accessories. The packing cubes make it great to separate and plan out what I'm going to be bringing. If you're a traveler that has to bring everything you own, yeah buy this pack and a 90L bag to go along with it. For me, I can fit what I need and a few luxury wants. Plus with the expansion, there is a little wiggle room for purchasing more.
I love throwing the Travel Line in the overhead and then use my Tech Pouch during the flight. The pack by itself is a little on the heavy side. It has all the bells and whistles to make it a little heavier-- magnets to close things shut, zippers everywhere etc. I'm okay with the weight because it's not like I'm going backpacking with it. For me, I was looking for a pack that I can stow straps and stuff into itself. That way going through security and sticking it on a plane isn't a chore. The Travel Line does this perfectly and in an elegant way.

Better than Luggage
on January 10, 2019
Posted by: Nathan P
I spent many years hating on backpacks because of how awful they were back in grade school--structureless sacks for stuffing a locker's worth of books and back pain. But last year I made a trip to Thailand that required a lot of hoofing, so I bought three backpacks to figure out what I'd want to carry--an Osprey Sojourn 80L, a PacSafe Vibe 40L, and a Peak Design 20L, and their innovations and utility made me rethink backpacks. I brought the Osprey and the PacSafe, but the Peak Design Everyday Backpack got the most use when I returned despite its low volume.
Then the Peak Design 45L Travel Backpack arrived, and it blew the others away on both innovation and utility, including the 20L Everyday Backpack. It doesn't need much help keeping things organized and accessible, and holds enough for a long weekend when I need to dress for dinner, and I successfully used it as a domestic flight carryon in its collapsed form on Southwest. Not needing to check luggage saved me an hour queuing before the return flight, and got me out the local airport while other passengers who disembarked well before me were still meandering around the baggage claim waiting for the belt to start. Had I not needed to wait for the entire plane to empty out before I could go to the rear for the overhead compartment where my bag had been stowed, I might have felt even a little guilty.
