Best backpack I've ever had.

Women carry handbags, men carry backpacks :). I've carried a backpack to work for many years and have changed many of them over 20 years. But I kept telling myself they weren't the right fit, too soft, didn't hold their shape, got wet, etc.
I like classic looking backpacks and that's why I chose the Everyday Backpack Zip 20l. And from that moment on I don't carry any other backpack but this one. It has to accompany me to work, on trips with my family and on vacation. Just everywhere I need to carry something that doesn't fit in my pockets. Moreover, thanks to the 20l volume, it forces me to think about what I'm taking with me, so I don't carry any unnecessary things.
Since I bought an older DSLR some time ago, I based it on the need to carry it everywhere with me and often with additional lenses. The perfect thing is that I can tailor the main compartment of the backpack to the needs at hand and place daily necessities like sanitizer, hand cream, a small knife and other things in the small pockets. I tend to use the back pockets for my laptop and tablet to carry documents and more valuable small items.
And the workmanship? This is of course of the highest possible standard, as we are used to with Peak Design products. The fabric that the backpack is made of is waterproof, and what's more, in the grey finish you can hardly see any smudges or dirt. And if any do happen to show up, all you need is a damp cloth and you're cleaned up. Plus, I love the little details like the magnetic side pockets for a bottle/tripod, the pack always stands upright on the ground, the zipper can be opened almost the entire circumference of the pack for easier organization of the luggage, and the list goes on.
Next time I see this as some sort of Travel Backpack... we'll see :).

warranty exchange

from Freiburg i. Brsg.
The zipper for the laptop compartment of my EVERYDAY BACKPACK ZIP broke after 5 years. I received the current model without an invoice and without a discussion about the guarantee. Very nice! The improvements are also very good. There is no longer any tension on the zipper for the laptop compartment. This model may really last as long as the warranty.

Meeting my needs
on March 10, 2022

from Fort Collins, Colorado
Knowing there is no perfect camera bag, I still ordered the Everyday Backpack Zip because I felt it would come close to meeting my needs. I've been using two backpacks for quite some time, one for everyday carry with computer sleeve and one for nature walks. For everyday use I have my Fujifilm X-T3 with either a Fujifilm 16-70mm lens attached and a Fujifilm 35mm f2.0 in the bag or I switch those around where the 35mm is attached and the zoom is in the bag. I also carry a A5 size journal, Kindle paperwhite, maybe a book and sometimes a 13" Macbook Pro. When headed to one of the natural areas I will bring along Fujifilm 70-300mm lens in the bottom compartment and no laptop. I do not like carrying much stuff and felt the smaller 15L bag would encourage me to carry only what I need, not what I can carry. I'm over 70 and the back is not what it used to be. So far it has worked out. I've not even consider the other two bags I used. I hesitated to order this because of the price but felt I could not evaluate the bag until I used it. Knew if it did not work for me I could return it. When I first received it I thought the laptop sleeve would be to small but it fits nicely. I find it easy to access my camera from the side or my journal from the top. So far I am very pleased with it.

My school/photo bag
on March 18, 2022
Posted by: Hamad
I use the 20L everyday. I got my notes, laptop and my camera. I have sufficient pockets for every pieces I need for class or photography.
My only caveat is that the hip belt sit higher than where I need it and I want a bit more space.
I want a 30L of the everyday zip. Please make one.
