I'm a fan of PD! Their products did not make me disappointed. I used an everyday backpack since the first version. I can grab everything that I need for my everyday life... office, study at campus, photo trip or hiking! Lightweight and bunches of features make my life easier. Pickpocket tried to open my bag in the Metro but he can't because the zip loop! Thanks for the great design.
Great backpack! I would love to see more commuter features. For example some way to quickly tie in my bike helmet. Maybe with more variety of straps for hanging stuff.
I bought this one because my work laptop is so huge it is no longer funny. Seriously it is 15.6 inch 2kg+ monster from 2020(!). My first choice would actually have been the 20l zip then the 20l Everyday.
I love the organization. I don't carry much photo gear. I mainly use it for commuting to work or small weekend trips. I love the pockets which I mostly fill with cables, powerbanks or chargers. It is reasonably comfortable for a city backpack.
The compartments are too big for smaller camera gear (Fuji, M43) that I use but I'll manage. Only real downside is the bulk and weight. Especially in public transport it is easy to hit someone or something. The backpack itself is also quite heavy. I am not that big hor muscular and I find comfort to be ok. My wife's 20l is much more comfortable.
I would not really recommend the 30l version. I would look at the 20l versions of the zip and everyday first. As I said...I really needed the large laptop sleeve. A MBP 14 gets lost in there (but the compartment can be adjusted..that is great)
I had used it extensively on my recent trip. It is comfortable to carry. The volume is the perfect size. Love the adjustable divider to keep my camera gear safe. Overall just love this backpack.
Flippin awsome! Dont bother thinking about thinking about another bag. If you want the best quality and best customer service then choose this! The only thing to be sure of is getting the right size for your needs. Do your readers h and then get yourselves this bag!
I've used the V1 version of this backpack for over 2 years and the V2 backpack for a couple of months now. I love the versatility of this backpack. I can use it for a quiet day at the office and an eventfull day filling it up with gear. Really love the building quality of it. Except for the zippers nothing has failed me yet (and when the zipeprs did fail, the lifetime warranty was great). For the V2 I love the updated version, it just tackles some of the drawbacks the V1 had. The only thing I don't like is the fact that both the side flaps have the same configuration and have no options for longer things like pens or flashlights.
