15L Bone - Great Small Carry!
on January 5, 2020
Posted by: Eric Joseph
I recently purchased the 15L bone to use for a small carry when I just need to carry my camera, Fujifilm XT-3, and one or two lenses (usually including the Fujifilm 80mm Macro Lens, which is a bit hefty and long).
I took this bag to southern Florida to visit family for the holidays shortly after receiving it and it was a great small carry option to have for overnight on the train (just enough room for clothes and toiletries for the night and my laptop..13" MacBook Pro), and was a fantastic bag for the nature walks and other outings. There was plenty of room for my camera and 1-2 lenses, including the big macro lens, water bottle, towel, and also carry my niece's Canon M6 with zoom lens up top. Each day I had some room to spare as well.
I'm impressed with the roominess of this smaller bag compared to my 20L Everyday Backpack Version 1 with maglatch. The straps were much easier to use to hold a sweatshirt on the front of the bagged I found the full zip to be so useful for setting up the storage for the day and also getting items. I really like being able to open it up completely and modify it as needed.
The Bone color way is lovely, I really like how it looks with the tan and leather accents. The shoulder strap pads are very comfortable even after several hours of use and I really like the material.

Perfect for Travel and Everyday hustle

Bought this for a long trip with a newborn to store all the things (food/toys) that the little one will need. I was impressed with the amount of storage this bag had, I was able to store their food, toys, and still have space for my headphones, chargers, kindle and MacBook. The quality is top notch and it's beautifully designed, so glad I bought this.

Great Bag for Moms
on January 9, 2020
Posted by: Mike
So, I have multiple PD products and love them. I have the V1 ED Backpack and use it all the time. My wife was also a fan of the backpack but didn't have a need for one. Now with two kids she wanted an update to her diaper bag that didn't scream "mom diaper bag" so I got her the Zip 20L for Christmas. She loves it! It's got enough storage for all the kids stuff, as well as her own things. The separators make keeping the different sized diapers organized a breeze and the 270 zip allows easy access when needed. The weatherproofing and durability will definitely be put to the test with its current use, but so far so good. She gets complements on the bag's style often and is extremely pleased with it (and I got a few brownie points as well). To recap; great every day bag even for those who don't need the photography specific application

Great bag overall
on January 10, 2020

Overall, great bag. But I was hoping the material and design would be as good as the travel backpack. I feel that the material on the raised back panel is a little weak and I can tell it'll wear through with time. I feel like PD should have used similar material as the travel backpack since it's more robust. I like the zips, They are nice and smooth and should last. The side pockets aren't as good as the travel backpack. In the travel backpack, it swallows very large bottles. While the Zip's side pockets look large, but a 500ml water bottle doesn't touch the bottom of the pocket, it leaves about 5 inches of space from the bottom of the side pocket. That's a lot of wasted space. My water bottle is standard sized, with a diameter of 2.5". The straps appears pretty comfortable. Softer than the travel backpack. Midnight colour way is a good edition and really digging the leather accent. I wish there is build in strap management for this backpack. I actually had to velcro them together to keep them from dangling. I wish PD would make other types of dividers that actually divide lengthwise. The depth of the bag is wide, so my lenses would be rolling around on the shelf. So again,not an efficient use of space. I would welcome add on dividers to reduce the size of the large shelf so I can securely carry prime lenses without them rolling around.

Great bag. Great looks. Not perfect though.

I use this as my EDC. I appreciate the minimalistic styling and the zipper access. The bag looks great, feels amazing, and has great features. However, I wish the straps would have some hideaway system to tuck away the excess webbing and miss the magnets on the straps from the EBD maglatch. Also, the laptop compartment can get very very cramped if there is more than a laptop in there.

One of my better purchases!

Totally a joy to use. Love the way it looks and the comfort while carrying my 15l zip. Really like the overall quality of the bag. I do have a few gripes though. I find the bottle pockets at the sides hard to use, especially when the bag is packed on the inside or when the Flexfold dividers aren't folded. I didn't like forcing my bottle in; felt as if I was damaging the dividers. Another problem also arises when the dividers are not folded in the bag: when the dividers are velcro-ed certain height, it inhibits the use of the side pockets. Of course, you could still put bulky items in the pockets, but it gets difficult to access and puts strain on the zips. Otherwise, the 15l Zip is probably the best backpack I've ever bought. Peak Design's values also aligned with mine. Big fan of their sustainability effort, unlike other companies who try to sell greenwashed products. Give their bags a go!

This is my VERY FIRST camera backpack, and the space allocation is very clever!! The V2 zip is smooth so I can use this very easy, I already looking forward to my travel with this backpack.
