Travel 45L Backpack

The Peak Design Travel 45L Backpack functions as a day bag, carry-on, or checked bag for all of your travel needs. The backpacks default 35L configuration meets the maximum international carry-on standards so you can confidently fly. Or, if you need a little extra room, dual expansion zips offer an extra 10L and the durable face fabric and ultra-light foam padding keep your gear protected so you can check the bag with peace of mind. Conversely, compression snaps reduce the bag to 30L when you're out on a day trip while tons of internal and external pockets help you keep all of your gear organized throughout the duration of your travels, wherever they may be.

Excellent design

Bought as a gift and haven't given it yet, but my initial impression is the backpack is very well made and the organization is designed well. I'm a big fan of Aer products, and the organization and quality seems similar.

Magic Bag of Tricks

I've taken the 45L Black Travel Backpack on one trip so far, and am really impressed with how versatile it is. When I travel for work, I need something that I can take to the office but but that's also suitable for carry lots. I usually travel on Amtrak and this fits well above the seat. I packed this bag full, unloaded some stuff in the hotel room drawers, then when I went to work the next day...I snapped the top of the bag to make the bag look more streamlined for the office. It doesn't look like your about to go camping. It's aesthetically beautiful yet discreet...which I appreciate. Love all the hidden nooks for their strap system as well. This may be obvious but it gets HEAVY, so that is just one thing to note. You probably don't want to carry it on your back for too long. The shoulder straps are a bit stiff but hopefully will wear in a bit. Definitely use the included passthrough to put this on your luggage if you can.

Absolute workhorse

So comfortable, spacious, and beautiful. Compress it for EDC, or expand when you're traveling. My go-to, no matter what.

My little home ❤️

I bought this backpack almost 2 years ago! Most of the year I'm somewhere else, so I like to joke that this backpack is my house (😅). Even I use it a lot, it looks brand new! One of my primary concerns was the safety of my notebook inside, I didn't have any problems yet (always fully packed). Only two things I can think are not ideal. Firstly, is not a backpack for hiking. I like to hike and this is usually my only backpack so I use it anyways, but when I compare it to other hiking backpacks is not as comfortable (the solution I found is to exercise my shoulders and back 😆). Lastly, the chest strap is losable. Since it can be fully detached, it's not impossible it will fall when you have it on just on one side and you will lose it. Thankfully they sell replacement strap, so I used a cheap one from an outdoor store until I could buy it from them.

Great SCUBA Travel Backpack

I just took this bag on a three-week SCUBA trip, and it was great! It helped me stay organized and had enough space for all my gear and accessories. It was a breeze to get through airport security, even when the TSA wanted to examine it. During the trip, several friends asked about it and were impressed with how much it held and how good it looked.

Great product

The quality, the amount of functionalities and the way they're implemented is very good. Flaws are that it doesn't stand very well by itself, there are no dedicated ways to use a lock for zippers (you still can, I think, but the zippers aren't designed for that). That's what I expect from an item costing this much, that's why I say that value is "average"

Nearly perfect

I bought this bag to use as my carry on camera bag , when I travelled for three weeks on 8 flights and seven hotels. It worked very well with a medium camera cube inside. If the reduction press studs had held i would have said it was perfect, but other than that i am very pleased with the clean lines when the straps are stowed.

A very good choice

I travel frequently and am done with checking my bags. My other carry on begs are too heavy for me at 5’ tall 107 pounds. Everything about this bag appeals to me, lightweight material, so many little places to store things. I’m 68, and I’m traveling often. Next stop Costa Rica!
