Customer Reviews for Peak Design - Travel Backpack 30L - Sage

Verified Purchase:Yes
This guy's the real deal. I've only used him for one trip now but it's a breeze to work with. Pockets on every conceivable surface. Pockets inside pockets inside pockets. Pockets I haven't fully even figured out yet. It's great. Also very comfortable to have on the back. I was skeptical since the suspension doesn't look like much, but it performs great. Every inch of this bag feels thought through.
I would recommend this to a friend!

5-star bag, 3-star colorway.

I've had the bag over a month now. I had a great everyday bag that left a lot to be desired for traveling, so my hope for this one is that it can be the One Bag solution for me. So far, so good.
I appreciate the wide open interior while still having enough pockets and side compartments to carry just about everything. I honestly wouldn't mind one more large-ish external pocket to hold a tech pouch, but I'm ok with it just sitting in the cavernous interior.
The divided laptop sleve makes a good place for my laptop and iPad and everything feels locked in place and secure from minor drops, etc.
The only thing I'm not in love with is the Coyote exterior. I love X-Pac as a material, but this is far more reflective and copper-like than I anticipated. I really wanted a tan bag to stand out among the sea of black work travel bags, but I think if I'd seen this in person, I might have chosen the sage or blue.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Mostly great

I bought this a month ago. I mostly like it, but there are a few things that I don't like. First the good:
They coyote is, in my opinion, the best color they make. Period.
It's well designed. I like that it's waterproof, stands up without drama. Easy to get my laptop into and out of. I like having the large space in the middle that I can just put stuff in without having to try to organize it. I like the internal pockets and organizer. I like that the carry straps fold away.
I do not like that the carry straps are really hard to put in the pocket. It's often a pain. It's gets easier with time, but it's still a pain. I do not like that the 30L does not have magnetic closures. The straps just need to stay put. Mostly they do, but at the bottom stuff hangs out and it doesn't look tidy. I wish I could get into the bag through the side too, but I can't. It's pretty much all or nothing. I understand that is a trade-off of the bag design. Doesn't stop me from wishing it could be different.
Overall, it is lighter than the everyday backpack v2, which I like a lot.
In general, I am happy with it. I will probably sell my everyday backpack, and use this for daily carry. And in the future I may get the 45L which addresses nearly all of my concerns, except that it can't be used as a personal item on a plane in many cases.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Killer Christmas Present.
on January 11, 2026
Posted by: ML42
Purchased as Christmas gift with appropriate accessories of packing cubes, pouches and totes. Was very well received. Their reciprocal comments being;
Love the straps on all sides for easy carrying/hanging. And ridged internal frame.
The separation of the main pocket is great for organization and makes it easier to find things without emptying the entire main compartment. Like the bold orange interior with the Eclipse color selection. Really good build

Sturdy with issues

Good looking bag. Very sturdy. I use it mainly for travel. Can fit a week of travel if packed smartly.
Only issues are the straps tend to loosen requiring constant shoulder adjustments. Also, when packed tight, the water bottle slot is difficult to allow any thing over 12 ounces. Lastly, the top slot cannot fit many items you need quickly.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Favourite hand luggage of all time
on January 16, 2026
Posted by: Nisse
I absolutely love this backpack. Not wheeling around in airports or on the streets, but having my stuff comfortably on the back. It easily contains what I need for 3-4 days business trips including trainers. Well organised and good user experience all around. Durable and good looking.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Finally can get all my gear and have some space for other things in carry-on luggage. Smart design and high quality backpack. My first Peak Design product and probably not last.
