I’ve had this thing for about 8 years as my main bag. It’s been in dozens of trips and my daily backpack and it still looks almost new. Glad I didn’t get the light grey though 😳 - ThreadSky

I have the same bag in the same color and had the same thought 😅

Unbelievably good build quality. I swapped that one in light grey and it was like-new when I did 3 years ago. I got the blue smaller one and it's the same story. Every day like picking up a new one.

Took it on any fun trips recently? Manhattan?

Taking mine on vaca on Tues and def wondering if people will be looking at it.

timclicks.dev•116 days ago

Just make sure that it's accompanied by a hooded field jacket. You'll be fine.

Killer design!

davidmyers.dev•115 days ago

How often do you hang it by the handle strap? I've been wanting to get my bag off the ground, but I'm always worried about that handle giving out at some point.

It's so important to have a good bag. I bought and returned several before landing on mine. Will try to remember to post tomorrow.

30L or 20L ? Is 20L enough for laptop, puff jacket, scarf ?

First thing I noticed was their bag. Such a good design.

nicol.dev•115 days ago

Is it waterproof?
I’ve just had to go for a roll top sack thing because I need to protect the laptop from the British weather. Missing the multiple pockets already though 😖

I got the messenger bag variant, it's amazingly sturdy.

johnstewart.dev•116 days ago

I have this bag and another that I will probably have forever. Their so good

trodrigues.net•116 days ago

Same 😂

I recognized it immediately when I saw the first pic of the suspect

allandeutsch.com•115 days ago

I got the light great and EDC’d it plus took it on ~1-3mo of travel per year for about 4 years. It looked a little worn on the arm & back pads, but otherwise still good!

I ended up switching to a Nomatic pack a year ago and have been finding it much better for my non-camera daily carries.

brockherion.bsky.social•116 days ago

I have the same one but in light gray 😅

Still, it’s the best bag I’ve owned. Been with me on a number adventures and it’s held up remarkably well!

creationix.blue•115 days ago

Nice. I have a Timbuk2 backpack and messenger bag that I got about 15 years ago and other than being a little dirty, both are in excellent shape

Good bags seem to last forever.

adamfortuna.com•116 days ago

I’ve had this bag for about the same length and it’s been great so far. Has one zipper that isn’t 100%, but still fully usable.

dou.gg•115 days ago

There’s a reason I recommend quality bags to people. Peak Design makes good stuff. My Evergoods bag has survived years of heavy use including sitting on my back in a motorcycle. Still looks pristine.

Good stuff just lasts longer.

anthonycregan.dev•116 days ago

What is it about Devs and these bags? I have 2, they were recommended to me by a guy I worked with at booking. I've seen countless other Devs with them.

julzmon.bsky.social•116 days ago

Ditto!

vmitchell85.com•115 days ago

I’ve thought about buying one for years, but I’ve never been sure it’s worth it for a non camera guy… do you use it for camera stuff?

wesbos.com•115 days ago

nope, I have a little pelican for my camera. Its great just for everyday life stuff. Jacket, laptop, meds, charging cords, etc..

blackdotlabs.com•116 days ago

If you had bought the light grey, it would have been the same color now...

dablooey.bsky.social•116 days ago

I love mine. It’s blue. It’s better than other bags because it has structured compartments with “hard” surfaces and magnets. Why do magnets make everything so much cooler?

elwinvaneede.com•116 days ago

Using it everyday. So good.

stephenjbell.bsky.social•116 days ago

Looks cool. What kind of bag is it?

dutchcelt.com•116 days ago

It looks like a Peak Design bag.

macdonst.bsky.social•116 days ago

Can confirm it is a Peak Design Everyday bag. I recently got one of their travel backpacks and I love it. https://www.peakdesign.com/en-ca/products/travel-backpack?Size=30L&Color=Midnight

dutchcelt.com•116 days ago

I’ve got the 45L Travel Backpack and an Everyday Sling. Both amazing bags. So, I might also go for an Everyday Backpack.

macdonst.bsky.social•115 days ago

30L travel and outdoor sling for me. The Everyday bag is great for photographers with its modular system to divide the internal storage components. I don’t have one myself instead I have a Timbuk2 and a Boundary backpack for daily usage depending on the situation.
