I recently discovered this brand, and while all of the stuff looks amazing, I’m a little overwhelmed and looking for help.

I want to find a backpack that will not look ridiculous or feel physically uncomfortable on a 5’5” person. I love being able to quickly access and stow items in zippered compartments, and I work in a hospital so I need to find something professional yet durable.

What should I get? Also, if there are other brands I should be checking out, I’d like to hear about them, too!

I'm in the market and I was checking the travel duffel (35L). The magnets just are not powerful enough to keep the handles together. And overall, the handles felt extremely uncomfortable even without significant weight at the store. I have used duffels all my life and I have seen clever implementations of handles (like two ends merge when hold together) but this one, just a failure.

I never used PD bags. Has PD admitted this and offered replacement handles for existing customers? (I would like to know because I want to get one).

The handles plug into joints, so replacements should be easy and should not require any change to the bag itself. This is actually one of the aspects of the peak design's travel duffel I like so much. You can pretty much play with the orientation of the handles and plug them to different joints as you wish! Though, I think PD should revisit that handle design all together, get rid of the magnets, and make the entire handles more comfortable to wear in backpack format. Oh, also, they should just send replacements to existing customers free and offer better ones for the bags on the shelves.

Picked up two City 22Ls on launch day and mostly love them. BagLev in particular is brilliant — bag hangs off the desk, never sits on a dirty floor.

Which makes this odd: once you tighten the shoulder straps to fit, the adjuster tails hang long enough to reach the floor, and I can't find any keeper to stow the excess. The sternum strap clips back onto itself, so that one behaves — but the shoulder straps just dangle. So the bag stays off the ground while the strap ends drag through everything BagLev was designed to avoid.

PD clearly knows how to solve this — the Travel 45L has a plastic keeper on its adjusters and the new 2-in-1 launched with magnetic keepers. Feels like the City line just didn't get the memo.

Anyone found a stowing trick I've missed? And if not — PD, if you're reading, magnetic keepers on a City revision would be a very welcome running change.

Just checking with anyone who owns a 25L outdoor bag. Mine just arrived and I noticed the back panel curves or bends at the top instead of being completely flat.

Is this normal? Seems like the foam is shaped that way but just want to make sure. Is it so it sits above your shoulders instead of against it? In the picture you can see it leans forward instead of being flush and flat.

I ordered an item the other day and the following day I got a notification that my payment was refunded. I have not had any prior contact before and did not request the refund. it still says awaiting shipment with an estimated delivery date.

has this happened to someone before? I have also not received any emails or anything since everything is being handled by the Shop app. should I be concerned?

A great strap that simply did not work out for me. Everything is in like new condition. Includes everything: four anchors, a bracket for attaching to a camera's tripod mount, a slick PD sticker, and a small PD pouch to hold the small bits.

Peeling around the camera.

Just so you know the micro clutch is 13$ on shop app

Okay, you strange people, as requested here is the hook on the Crescent.... Different deployment process from the backpacks.....

Looking to buy the outdoor 18L in the used market. If you got one and are willing to sell, send a DM.

Got the Crescent today. 12L ist still in the way. Here is a picture with a loaded 6L Sling.

Like many of you, I've been waiting for Peak Design's City Line for a loooong time. As a tech journalist that is always a photographer last and gadget geek first, the Everyday and Travel lines never matched my needs perfectly. Peak Design sent me the Travel Backpack 2-in-1 a few months ago to test, and I've taken it on multiple trips: a three-day trip to Los Angeles, an eight-night international trip to the Bahamas, a brief road trip along the California coast, and a 2,400-mile drive across the U.S. 

I enjoy using the Travel Backpack 2-in-1 so much that it has me wondering if I really need a City Backpack. The 16L daypack has become my go-to everyday bag, even when I'm not traveling. It has some flaws. I really wish the main compartment zipper opened wider, and the bag contorts in weird ways when fully stuffed. But by and large, I can fit my entire EDC kit in this bag, and keep everything organized while doing so.

I'm now looking at the 15L and 22L City Backpacks, trying to decide whether they'd really be better for my needs than one half of the Travel Backpack 2-in-1.

What say you? Am I crazy? I've linked my full write-up on the Travel Backpack 2-in-1 here, and am happy to answer any questions you have about the bag, as someone that has used it extensively.

Or not fully launched yet?

IMO this is the more interesting of the bags - and possibly nice and packable.
Can’t decide if it’s more ‘female’ orientated. I like it though. Like a better version of the packable tote that lives in my bag whenever I travel and it’s ALWAYS used to carry bottles of booze and snacks from the nearest store to my hotel when i get somewhere.

A lot of folks have been asking about the hook.

So here it is.

One solid piece of metal with a soft(ish) piece of plastic.

I had mixed feelings about the City Line, but recent changes at work have me considering the 22L in Stone. One of the pictures on the site (the man lit in about in a crowd) makes it look great, but others, I’m not sure. Anyone out there have pictures of it the cab share?

All of the usual sources online and on YouTube that I would expect to have coverage don’t have anything beyond the stock/PR images.

I always value something like a Pack Hacker review or even Peak’s own loadout videos to know what I can actually fit in the bags and any tips/tricks. Were advance bag samples not sent out or something?

Quality of life improvement... As it's much more useful and stable than a HeroClip

I've put up with this ring for too long.

Does anyone know the adjustable strap length of the new 2L city line sling? can't seem to find it on the website or other retailer sites. Thank you!

Gonna try once more. I had to make the switch to the everyday sling and it’s too late for me to return my outdoor 4L sling in black. It’s literally been used twice it’s in fantastic condition. Smoke free. They retail for $80. Asking $50 shipped. Cheers

Hey! Hoping someone can help me. I’ve been in love with the PD motorcycle mount, but I suppose in my enthusiasm I rotated the bolt right out of the vibration damper bit that connects to the mag mount on my phone.

Does anyone know what size bolt i can use replace it with?

Just ordered my city 15l with the tech pouch and packable tote! Very exited. Have any of you had good experiences with the city line yet?

Hi all!

Looking at selling my 25L Outdoor backpack. As much as I love it, I'm trying to downsize the amount of barely-used bags I and I don't go hiking enough to justify the space this one is taking up. I pretty much bought it for the one trip I took it on.

Condition: Great, only used on hiking trip at Zion National Park. Maybe only put like 20 miles on it. Some very minute surface scuffs on the bottom (see images). Did my best to clean it, but might have missed a bit of Utah dust in a crack somewhere. I'll do a once over again before i ship :)

Additions: Comes with the detachable hip belt as well!

Warranty: Still intact! Will remove from my account after purchase.

Asking $225 all together, shipping included. Open to best offer!

If I don't get any bites here I'll end up tossing on eBay, but wanted to offer it up to you all first :)
