I've had my Everyday Backpack for a few years now and it has been a tremendous boon for my work day. Everything I need to get from home, to the lab, to a coffee shop to code fits in it well. The side access is amazing and I find myself using it more then I thought. When combined with the Tech Pouch for cable safekeeping the bag size seems to expand even more. :)
Everything about this page is so thoughtful and designed to perfection. It fits all of my gear, lenses, tripods, etc... I'm still constantly amazed by this bag. Would buy from Peak Design for all my photography needs
I bought this at the end of the summer last year and have used it extensively since. The functionality of this bag is top notch, honestly. I function best when everything is mise en place and this bag gives me the tools to make it happen. It’s so easy to quickly grab what I need bc I know exactly where it is and the accessibility in the bag is so easy.
I don't usually do reviews, but in the case of the Everyday Backpack, I had to make an exception. Really. Even with all the raving positive reviews, it is WAY better than I expected it to be, which convinced me to spend this kind of money on a backpack. I bought the black, size 20 version, and it's hands down the best backpack I've owned. I'm 6'3," and the size is perfect, discreet, and fits incredibly comfortably with an MBP 14" tablet, tons of accessories, and a spare camera set.
While I'm not a photographer, I work in media, carry a backup camera set, and am highly mobile in my work environment. The accessibility, layout, and quality are much better than expected. I was concerned by what I thought was a slightly strange boxy, wide bottom design, which didn't work well in pictures and videos for me. However, it's fantastic in 'real-life.' Incredibly functional accessibility, really well-thought-out design. I'm a fan.
The details the team put into this backpack are just incredible. If you’re like me you have a pocket for everything. The bag is very balanced when I’m taking on a rocky steep trail. Houses my photography and drone gear easily.
I have had the everyday backpack for 2 weeks now and so far extremely impressed. Build quality is exceptional (as you would expect) but the amount of room is what really blew me away. I haven't even needed to open the expandable zipper, and easily carries everything I'd need for a day (or weekend out). Tbh you could easily use this for a light travel longer vacation too.
It was a tough choice between this and the everyday carry, but for me the spacious and full opening main pouch won me over (compared month the multi compartment approach to the ec).
Yes these backpacks are pricier than more budget friendly alternatives. But quality, usability, and versatility (not to mention environmental consciousness of the company) really make it worthwhile!
