Customer Reviews for Peak Design - Everyday Sling V2 6L - Ash

Verified Purchase:Yes
I wanted to be able to give this 5 stars but I just can't. I am a very amateur photographer and bought this for a recent trip to rainy Iceland. It worked for the multiple purposes I wanted it to: for packing my camera in my carry on and for taking on hikes or while walking around. I had to dock it stars for a couple reasons. First, it is not very easy or quick to convert from the sling to the waist pouch. Not a huge deal but I converted it less than I would have due to how long it took to switch. Second, it was not really waterproof. The sling got soaked and stayed wet for a long time. My camera was fine inside but I would not call this fabric waterproof at all. I'll probably need to get a rain cover for it for the next trip, which will just make taking the camera in and out harder.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A bit disappointing (quality & features)
on April 1, 2023
Posted by: Grad
from Germany
Peak Design charges high prices for their products, arguing that they offer the highest quality and well thought-out features.
The overall quality impression is quite good, but the strap connections made of plastic reduce my quality impression. I would have liked to have the same material there, as in the carabiner (probably aluminum).
Another point has struck me negatively. The feature is advertised that the capture clip can be attached to the bag. Unfortunately, when you do that, you prevent the zipper from running freely. This could have been better considered in the design and development.
Furthermore, I noticed that the quick release does not have a blocking effect in any position. Gravity and the pull prevents slippage. Therefore, the bag must be lifted and the pull relieved to change the strap length (you can also see on the videos).
In sum, it can not keep the high advertising promises for me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Surprisingly poor quality
on September 6, 2024

Useful bag but disappointed with quality - especially fabric. I've used the bag maybe 10 times so far but the fabric color is already fading especially around the corners. I think they use poor quality fabric to cut costs. Also the "hook" that is supposed to lock the strap is weak. My strap lengthens on it's own over time despite it being in the "locked" position.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Front pocket unusable
on January 16, 2025
Posted by: pedilio
Steps required to open the "quick access front pocket":
1. Grab bag with one hand
2. Grab zipper with the other hand. Oh, are you holding a camera? Better put that away first.
3. Pull vigorously.
4. Pry the rigid top of of the pocket back as you attempt to spread open the pocket with some other fingers in some other hand.
5. Find out your iPhone doesn't fit.

This was part of a big order and overall I'm underwhelmed. Would have been so easy to have a magnetically clasped sleeve-like pocket on the inside of this expensive bag - as seen in some of their other products - but no. Instead they make you unzip a turtle shell. Absolutely cannot understand how this gets past a design team.

Sling 6L Ash
on November 9, 2020
Posted by: Anonymous
So first of all this thing is GREAT! Its comfy and i forget that im wearing it at times. Its very sturdy and tough. I like climbing all over rocks and stuff on the WA beaches and hikes that i do. I like to carry light with only essentials and this give me that and more. The best thing about this bag would be the way you can rearrange it inside with the 2 dividers it comes with. I ve tried so many diff setups its literally ENDLESS. I love that cuz i love to switch it up all the time. Especially with diff gear that ive got for diff occasions. Anywayyyssss highly recommend this bag. Im sure any size you go with youll absolutely love üëåüèºüëåüèºüëåüèº

Not a good design for a Peak Design Bag
on November 28, 2025
Posted by: kapurar

I own a number of Peak Design products including tripod, backpacks , numerous camera straps but this is the most poorly designed product. I needed a small bag for my everyday camera bag and there are a number of ergonomic problems with it.
First, for a company that revolutionized camera straps, the strap on the bag is awful. Unlike Peak Design camera straps, the quick adjust is only on one side and the wrong side of the bag if you are right handed and wear the bag on the left side of your body. It is impossible to adjust the bag without having to take it off.
Secondly the strap is a thinner and poorer quality than the camera straps. They should have use the same strap as the slide lite - it would have been better overall.
My everyday camera is a medium sized mirrorless, Nikon Z6III with 50mm lens. So not a big system but it barely fits in the bag, annoyingly the bag could have been made to open wider and slightly deeper to to make it easier to use. My Z8 wont fit unless I size up to 10L.
You cant reach the memory card holders on the far right and left side of the bag because the zipper doesn't open wide enough.
Minor annoyance but it is nearly impossible to read the serial number of the bag because it is buried in an impossible to reach location.
Peak Design could have done a lot better with this bag. This is a big disappointment for me given the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Bag for Tefillin!
on September 7, 2023
Posted by: Schepps
from Jerusalem
I started using this bag a few days ago as a tefillin bag (tefillin are Jewish Prayer boxes that we tie to our arms and heads every day for morning prayers). With the dividers you can make perfect cells to hold each of the four boxes. The bag is very firm and protective, which I like. It's also the perfect height and firmness to use as a stand for a prayer book (both to rest a book on top as well as to lean against the bag with the help of the straps as in the picture). The zippers are very durable and pleasant to use, and I love the use of magnets for the inside pocket.
I'm not a huge fan of the front pocket. It is too stiff and hard to get a hand in and put things in. It would be nicer if it was softer and stretchier in order to properly use all the space in it. In the inside zipper pocket, I didn't find much use for the SD card holders being that they are very small. The biggest downside of this bag is the price, but you can't take 'peak' out of 'Peak Design'. Overall, I really love this bag and it elevates my prayer experience. If there are any Jews reading this, I hope this review was helpful. It is also a great bag for mivtzoyim!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I already own different types of Everyday Sling series and i'm happy with it. One of my favourite is Everyday Sling 5L V1. All Slings are so adorable and convenient for everyday use. Practical and stylish.
