Fantastic backpack
on April 1, 2025
Posted by: AG
from BC, Canada
Bought it a couple of months ago. Using it for a daily work bag / commuting and for weekend outdoor stuff with kids, snowboarding, hiking, etc. Love it. I wasn't expecting to like the quick open front stuff pocket so much, it's great for shoving snacks, jackets, gloves etc. Water bottle holders are nice and deep.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My outdoors self found a bag!

I backed the kickstarter and it came. I already had the everyday zip but this bag is a big larger and provides space for my life out and about in the wilderness or going to pick up groceries. The highlight is the harness and the deep bottle pouches on the sides super comfortable and great storage!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Possibly the Worst Backpack I've Ever Owned
on April 24, 2025
Posted by: R.Hofmann

This backpack is the worst one I have ever owned. The shoulder straps are too wide and don't sit comfortably. The back panel, after only a few months of use, has bent leaving a sharp line across the lower back making it extremely uncomfortable (unless there is a laptop in the bag acting as support for the back). The side pockets are not easily accessible, making getting a water bottle in and out very difficult. The interior is like a vast black hole. There are not interior pockets aside from the laptop one. I even purchased the additional smedium camera packing cube to fit in it, but it does not fit the two camera bodies and lenses well (as I had expected) and I find that when clipped into the bag I have to open it too much to access the gear (resulting in the possibility of gear/equiptment falling out and breaking). The only small pockets are in the front of the bag, these are good but limited. The main pocket is a rolling top and the sides do not stretch/extend much so you can not really stuff it full. The very front pocket does not provide any additional stretch at all so when filling it takes up interior space by pushing into the bag instead of outward.
If this bag had some sort of built-in interior pockets it would be much better. I previously had the Peak Design Everyday Backpack and it was SO MUCH BETTER! Pockets and storage for days, accessible side pockets, laptop sleeve, etc. I switched because I wanted something that had the hip straps for the backcountry/hiking I do with my gear. It was a mistake and this bag is so poorly designed that I may never purchase another Peak Design bag again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

New, go-to travel bag
on April 24, 2025

Backed this product on Kickstarter and have now taken it on several trips. It has become my new favorite travel bag. It holds a surprising amount and keeps nicely secured. Comfortable fit on my shoulders, even when weighted inside. Quick access shoulder pouches have been an great addition to my travel routine, excellent place to quickly stash/access my phone or wallet while going through the airport and security. Multiple tie down points around the bag give me the chance to increase storage if needed. No visible signs of wear after several multiday trips thus far. Another hit product from PD in my eyes.
I would recommend this to a friend!
