great, but for one major flaw

bought it and as soon as I saw the buckle packed it up and returned it. reading all the other comments confirmed my suspicion that the buckle will easily open by mistake and leave you picking up your broken camera from the ground. otherwise everything seems great. if they fix the buckle design i'll definitely buy it again!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Strap buckle too easily opens - defective design

On a recent 4 week trip I was using it to carry a camera with a Ape Case ACQB33 – Cubeze Flexible Padded Insert. For me it had better function than the PD insert but maybe a bit less padding. Truly amazing how much that little sling can carry. For all of it's positive attributes I believe the item should be recalled by PD or buyers sent a new shoulder strap. Like many others have noted in reviews if you grab the strap to reposition the sling in just the wrong way the clip way too easily opens and your bag can go flying to the earth below if you don't catch it in time. Happened to me 3 times with a protective lens filter cracking into the lens/cap. In my case tiny splinters and granular glass started to embed into the actual front lens element.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My new Everyday Bag

Bought the 7L on Kickstarter and love it. Great feel, great weight and with the XS Cube the perfect bag for my mirrorless camera. Yes, the Cube is not the exact size of the bag, but I fill it up with a packable tote so I always have a shopping bag with me. For me, it's my new Everyday Bag and I love it!

I use both 2L and 7L and I really like them both!

I bought both the 2L and 7L Outdoor Sling and have used them both. The 2L is my everyday carry and I love it. It has a nice shape even though it's not structured, I really like the quality of it, the zipper etc. My only little gripe with it is that I can't get the "padded" part exactly right if I want a snug fit in front but it's good enough. What I have in the 2L is my sunglasses, a pack of gum, wallet, a bunch of keys in different key rings and car keys, airpods pro and some tissue paper since I'm a dad to small kids.
The 7L I use occasionally but it works great for those purposes, mostly when we bike ride as a family I can store snacks, keys, wipes, tissues, toys, some clothes like gloves if it gets too hot etc.The stabilizer strap is great, it works great when cycling. When I ride my bike alone I can also have my drone with me in my bag, I have the DJI Mini 4 Pro and its bag can fit nicely inside of this, I can still have some other things around it and because it has a stabilizer strap then I can actually bike ride with this which I couldn't with only the Mini 4 Pro and its bag.
I understand some people have had the strap come off but that has never happened to me, I really like the buckle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect size

I bought the 2L version and I felt that I need a little more ,7L is too much. When PD launch the 4L was a instant buy. I love the design the front pocket with zíper is perfect and the dividers inside are really useful.
The only thing is the buckle of the strap is too easy to unlock accidentally or intentionally, I had to create an extra secure layer (aka a clip to hold the buckle close)

This would be a great sling IF: 1) Peak Design did not slap their logo all over it, which cheapens the product (and their brand) and 2) If it came in the Sage color. Therefore, I'll continue to use my XXS packing cube and strap as my everyday sling instead of the 2L. YMMV of course.

Not a camera bag
on July 27, 2025

Bought this a month ago to lug around my camera and it is not padded or safe enough to protect your camera. It’s good quality but definitely more so for travel than for your camera’s protection.
