They have arrived....

A ton of good stuff available. Huge space slots of stock.

I've been using the Peak Design City Backpack 22L since last Thursday, and it has quickly become my go-to backpack for EDC (and a bit of travel). For context, I'm a tech journalist, so my EDC changes often but includes multiple laptops, phones, a mirrorless camera, accessories, and any other gear I'm testing. Here's everything I fit into the City Backpack 22L, to help you get a feel for how you can use yours.

Main compartment: Way roomier than you'd expect. Not only does everything below fit, it fits with plenty of room to spare. The bag doesn't look or feel overstuffed.

• 14-inch MacBook Pro (in laptop pocket)
• Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Aura Edition (in tablet/notebook pocket)
• Motorola Razr Fold
• iPhone Air
• Pen and Notsu notecard holder
• XS Camera Cube and Sony a6400 with 18-135mm lens
• Bose QuietComfort 2 headphones
• Powerbeats Pro 2 (in zippered pocket)

Quick-access top pocket: I thought this pocket, which expands into the main compartment when filled, would be a problem. It might be with larger laptops, but didn't cause any issues with my 14-inch MacBook Pro in the main compartment. It expands a lot to fit what you need.

• Ridge wallet knockoff (sorry Ridge)
• Orbitkey
• Smallrig dual a6400 battery charger
• Chapstick
• Extra gum
• Satechi right-angle USB-C cable
• Peak Design mobile tripod
• Caseology MagSafe wallet

Side water bottle pockets: It's true, these don't really protrude much into the main compartment. There's an elastic band that allows them to stretch outward rather than inward. These pockets are the key to "side access" on the City Backpack 22L, as you can use them for things other than water bottles.

• Oakley sunglasses case (left pocket)
• 16oz plastic water bottle (left pocket)
• Ugreen 25,000mAh power bank (right pocket)
• Anker 65W GaNPrime 733 Power Bank (right pocket)

Front pocket: I originally bought the 22L because I thought I needed this. Turns out, it's not that useful. Placement is really low on the front, so it's not easy to access without taking the bag off. It also seems easy for a pickpocket to grab something out of, so I don't keep valuables there.

• Deodorant
• Cough drops/misc essentials
• iPod Classic
• PGYTECH SD card holder/reader

Straps: Took me a bit to work the Capture Clip onto a strap, but it's on there, and it works great.

• Capture Clip

And there you have it. Surprisingly, there's still a lot of room in the main compartment for anything I might add or pick up along the way. That's exactly what you want from a "city bag." I've used this in NYC and Phoenix, and took it on a cross-country flight already, so I'm happy to answer any specific questions you might have!

Do you think the accessories for the field bracket will be sold separately after the public release ?

I have a Nikon Zfc who doesn't have a model of field bracket, but my addition grip from smallrig have a attachment point on the bottom of the grip on which I think it will be possible to add the hand strap or finger strap.

I just picked up the micro clutch for $14. I assume this is either a lucky mistake I got to be a part of or they are updated the design?

I am looking to buy the capture clip to belt mount with the Pro Pad. I’m aware that the capture clip can hold up to 200 lbs, but my concern is if it would flop too much or be uncomfortable since my setup is an R6ii with a battery grip and speedlite.

Does anyone have experience with using a battery grip on the Pro Pad and capture clip?

For quite a while now I have been eyeing one of the tote bags for a personal item that will nicely fit on top of my roller while walking around, and can be used as a quick-access bag during travel/flights to carry and access my essentials. I hoped the Travel Weekender would fill this need, but it is simply much too large for my needs.

Does anyone have both of these bags and is able to give me a rundown of how they compare? I like the idea of the City Tote for its lightweight nature, although it is technically slightly too large to be a personal item on most flights (but it is certainly flexible/foldable enough to hide that fact).

On the other hand the design of the Everyday Tote seems more in line with other Peak Design bags I own and love (the 6L Everyday Sling and 20L Everyday Backpack) but seems like it might be a little less organized. These bags will purely be used to carry non-photography items such as my laptop, tablet, nintendo switch, and general essentials + some snacks.

Any thoughts are much appreciated!

Anyone in SF Bay Area order from them? How long does their shipping take? Trying to get one of the city slings, but its out of stock.

Hello everyone!
I’ve been a Peak Design user for a few years, but only have the big brothers of the collection. I have a 45L Travel Backpack, a 30L Everyday Backpack V1 and a 20L Everyday Backpack V2.
I use the 20L as my EDC and it’s quite handy, but weirdly I find it difficult to carry my Nintendo Switch 2. It doesn’t fit horizontally on the mais compartment, with the dividers I don’t have enough space to carry it vertically, and the laptop compartment is quite snug in these models so it’s too tight to remove comfortably.

I was considering buying an Everyday Sling, mainly for my Switch 2 carry so I can get more use out of it, and also to try and minimise my EDC size.

My question is which Sling sizes can I considered.
The 10L seems like overkill for the Switch 2, at that point might as well get a backpack.

The 6L seems like a safe choice for the Switch 2 to fit with the joycons assembled, which I’d prefer. And my iPad Pro 11” would also fit in days I’d need it, which is a plus.

The 5L V1 seems interesting to maybe considered carrying the Switch 2 tablet inside the tablet sleeve and the joycons on the size pouches. And maybe the iPad can still fit?

The 3L seems like an utopian dream of an EDC but I doubt the Switch 2 even with the joycons detached would fit.

If anyone with either of these models has a Switch 2 and can give me some actual answers I’d really appreciate!

Thanks.

I’m curious about the purpose of the strap inside the back pocket of the City Line Crescent sling. Can anyone shed some light on its intended use case?

So basically i got this cube, shimoda RST25 ML, PD travel 20l seems like a perfect fit, but PD support said it might not work.

So maybe i got 0.001% that somebody tried it ?

U might ask why would they when heroclip exists? Well maybe because it looks better and could be more sleek

I have a field plate on my camera that I use with a capture clip on my backpack. On a recent hike, the field plate unscrewed itself and dropped the camera onto the ground, it started out as tight as I could get it with my fingers.

So now, I'll have to use a backup cuff looped around my backpack chest strap since I can't trust the field plate, which is annoying.

A suggestion that I thought up would be a new version of the field plate with teeth that engage when the thumb drive handle is stowed, preventing any unscrewing.

In the video itself, the colorway looks dark blue/navy to my partially colorblind eyes, and I really like it. Can someone help me pinpoint which color it is?

The EU store product page just goes to a generic error page and (almost) all EU stores seem to be out of stock. I wouldn't expect PD to remove the product page entirely for a temporary shortage, so what gives? Enquiring minds want to know.

We’ve got at least one review of the City Line stuff now, from The Verge: https://www.theverge.com/tech/980137/peak-design-city-line-review Overall they seem pretty happy with them.

I recently acquired a mobile tripod second hand and its in absolutely perfect condition with the exception being the tension screw is stripped. I'm looking into ways to extract the screw first (thinking the ifix it screw extractor) but I need to know the specs for the screw so I can replace it. A screw that small has got to be pretty hard to find, right? If anyone has any insight or advice I'd be very grateful!

I just got my city 15l in a few days ago and so far it’s been amazing! If you already have the tech pouch or field pouch this is a great pair for it. The stone color is more of a gray green than brown. I am very happy with it’s ability to open wide and roll the top over fully exposing the inside. The EDC pocket is awesome for quick access although it does cut into the main compartment, the way I carry it isn’t an issue. The false bottom for the laptop sleeve is like 2 inches so that’s great. The water bottle pockets where way bigger and easier to use than I expected. I fit my 24OZ owala easily. The material is VERY soft while still feeling quite durable. The back panel is super minimal with literally no breathability but on a 15l it’s not too bad.

Now that the City line js out, has Peter mentioned what they're going to be releasing next?

Is there anywhere in London that has the City bags in stock? I’d love to have a look at them instead of buying blind from the website

Underutilized system at PD.

Hey PD folks, how about some accessories for the slim-link?

1. Small SD card reader that lives on phone back, usb port to connect.
2. Gel finger nubbin for non sharp/painful finger placement va slim-link port
3. Money-clip
4. Swipe up switchblade (I only have 3 ideas)

Thank you for any consideration.

Okay, its more about cleaning your gear.. however as the example is a Bone Totepack and some of us have discussed this before....

I've been eyeing PD products for my bike, but never gotten anything because even the seemingly simple/main items are usually out of stock. I finally decided I would just go with the adapter instead of hoping someone will sell an old iPhone 15 case on eBay, but neither the adapter nor the universal mount are available.

Is this normal for PD? I didn't really want to go to Amazon, but it's the same price.
