Am going on safari this week. Bought both the Peak travel backpack and the new Peak duffel/65L and have to chose one Packed them both up a few times with all my stuff, gear, clothes, camera, meds, etc. In the end I am going with the smaller travel backpack. Main reasons: 1. Better organisation ... more ways to keep things within reach on multi leg air and land movements 2. More comfortable on the back 3. Nice tight feel, whereas the duffle allowed more slushing around of everything 4. Actually fit just as much in compressed mode 5. Certainty of carryon...whereas the duffle was iffy Hope this is helpful to some Curtis in Hong Kong
Things that get me into a new backpack: Making sure i have a place for my business papers, dodads, mushroom powders and ayahuasca PLUS the abundance of Whipple Snarfs. Clothing etc. is always second place. Great review as always Chase, thank you sir.
I'm so hooked on peak designs stuff right now... their packing cubes are dope, field pouch is dope, tech pouch is dope, camera straps are dope. One thing i would love to see from peak is a smaller edc backpack... like 15-20 liters. You the man Chase!
Yeah I think something even smaller then that would be cool more like 15 liters or less (I realize the everyday comes in a 20 liter) ... like a slimmer tech bag.
One thing you did forget to mention and it is advertised on the little tag/brochure that comes with the bag, is that using the compression straps - depending on how you have the bag packed, you can compress the bag to 35L, which should make it carry-on friendly.
@@soonho96 I know this comment is old, but i'll answer anyway. The top of the bag can be rolled up a little bit, and held down with the external carry straps included with the bag. It effectively makes the top of the bag end at the height of the shoulder straps.
@Justin Doughty Really? This would be awesome. Because I am thinking about getting the 65l or the 35l. So if it really would be possible to compress the 65l down to 35l this would be the perfekt bag, because of the backstrap and shoulder straps. So far I couldn't find more informations about this.
the "foreskin" is there because you can use the compression straps can be used to fold that down and hold it in place so you can reduce the size of the bag to 45L, which DOES allow it to be a carry on ! It really can do it all. We took this bag to Disney. I was able to carry it on on the way there, then used the extra space to pack the stuff we aquired on the vacation then checked it on the way home.
You can carry on this duffle bag! You have to roll the top down but they describe it in the official peak design video very clearly. Other than that awesome vid!
I'm looking at picking up this bag and I saw that on the official video. If you own the bag/have tried this, do you know how much it takes away space wise if any?
I saw that video but you don't even need to do that to carry on. It's squishy so you can stuff it on as a carry on. Especially the black one as it doesn't stand out as too big for carry on. I've done it and many people have carry it on NP
i know i'm late to the party, but i finally pulled the trigger (used the affiliate link of course) for an upcoming road trip. chase is the only kind of salesman i want in my life lol
This bag has a place not mentioned. I can think of travelers who carry 2 bags on the way out (because having your stuff lost or damage on the way to destination suuucccks), but on the way back they want to lighten the load and check the bag (because who cares if your stuff is delayed when you are home anyway)? So you under pack it on the way out (and try to sneak by the gate agents with it lightly loaded) on the return trip, use the expansion option....move your stuff from your 2nd bag into this beast and check that sucker on the way home (no running around through airports making connections with the extra bag on the return trip).
It’s a gear bag for photographers and videographers first and foremost - what I need cuz I shoot run and gun style so times I need still camera 70-200, Blackmagic, mirrorless for vid, tripod, wireless mic, three panel lights, wires and batteries- wad of clothes on top - have two Shimoda, three ThinkTank one w wheels, a PD everyday and Kata for dump bag. Assessing one of these last night ar pro photo store, this w cube has massive promise. Wish you would have emphasized pro shooter elements
The LBB Peloton Asphalt is excellent - I own one. Love it. Given its target audience (cyclists) the tarp lining makes it kill it when out cycling in the ole deluge. Straps, top loader, side access and front pocket configs give it flexibility to carry a variety of loads inside & outside. One gripe for me is that it sits high on my back (i'm shortish) which is good for cycling, though a little quirky when walking as EDC (when packing light).
That last thing you mentioned about how they must look at us with pitty... man I think about that all the time. Like every hour of the day. I look at all the stuff I have access to and how I get sucked into the minutia of the details of stuff that at the end of the day just don't matter. It's such a struggle to be so self-aware and live in a place of privilege and wealth. Sorry for the existential comment rant.... good review bruh. Stay woke.
Would be eternally grateful if you did a review of the north face 36l stratoliner backpack. Looks like they were trying to improve on the ruckpack 40 but I can't find any reviews or useful pictures of it
@ chasereeves Can I use the PD Duffel 65L for activities like Hiking, Trekking, Technical Mountaineering instead of a typical rucksack? Would my intended purchase of the product solve the purpose of not being required to purchase a rucksack?
If you are interested in innovative materials and non-US based companies, I would love to see a review of a Vaude product! They are a German company specialising in bags and outdoor gear made from high tech (and often recycled) material. All of their products will probably outlive me.
I have vaude but their purpose is completely different also a esthetically they are more geared for outdoorsy types where as PD is more geared for urban photographers and hobbyist.
Hi, I’m 5’2” female, how comfortable is this for someone my size, assuming I can carry the weight? The hip straps on other bags never fit right, and could be very uncomfortable.
@@chasereeves I personally found the 35L to be extremely well constructed but with serious conceptual flaw. The grab handles can easily get lost, stole's;en or misplaced. I have had the same problem with PD sternum strap on 45L Travel Backpack. I am on already my fourth in less than 8 months. Its really irksome to bother about something so trivial in between shoots.But it is important nonetheless and that is why now I have a few spares. I think same will be the problem with grab handles for 35L Duffel.
@@victormartinez-un7ls Not trying to be preachy or talk you out of it but the duffel simply is not worth it. Don't get me wrong the design is brilliant but that is all that is there to the duffel. I tried it for a few days and then returned it and switched to duffel pack which by all standards is a beast of a hauler. At $129 35L Duffel is over thought and conceptually flawed and honestly just does not justify its premium price tag.
I'd have those barnacles on the pre-frontal cortex looked at locally before worrying about my next trip! I just care, bro. Excellent review. I don't travel with family (or in groups) pretty much ever, so I think this one isn't for me, but Peak Designs is killing it for their intended audience.
Thoughts on pairing this with the 20L Everyday Backpack?? I like carryon travel, and I would love to get some packing tools and either one of the duffels for clothing while keeping the electronics in the Everyday. Size of 35L is nice but I like the functionality and versatility of the Duffelpack.
God damn it. I want to like Peak Design bags. I just received my 65L duffelpack in the mail. Super excited. seems like it could be an alternate carry-on/check bag. But it's super uncomfortable when worn as a backpack. The strap covers were totally digging into my back. Oh well. Back to the store with it.
This is the first time I’m watching one of your videos and I absolutely loved it. You are so funny man! Thanks for the great content! Liked and subscribed!
Juan, the 35L duffel bag has a big-big conceptual flaw. Since the grab handles can easily be removed there is good chance of it getting lost in the transit or been misplaced. Since shoulder strap too is stowable, one could literally be stranded with a bag that is strapless.
@@electrichimpliterally speaking i am a bag-o-holic... I liked the duffel the way it curves & hugs your back but the conceptual flaw was way too obvious to be ignored. The duffelpack like PD Travel Backpack, is full on dope. I am totally digging it. Very well designed, just wish had a tad bit more organization and a dedicated shoe compartment
Amazing looking bag...but it looks HUGE. I can hear the flight attendants already..”sir I think you should check that” Hopefully they make a 30L to 45L model. That would be dope.
Thanks for another great video Chase! I’m 96% of the way there on the PD travel backpack, but no one stocks it in Melbourne, so I’ve only got pics and reviews to go off, and I can’t decide between the sage and black. What do you think of the sage in real life? I wear a similar pallet to you - what would you choose?
Do you still think this is a great gearhauler? And is there anything you would recommend over this? Thank you for a entertaining show! Best Regards from Sweden!
*My kids love these bags Good size, without being too big for elementary school kids. Double sections keeps the wet clothing away from the dry clothes very effectively. The color is also bright and true to the photo. Zippers work great. Really pleased with these bags.*
From what I see, this looks to be the new king of travel duffels. Only problem I see with it is that it is too nice and too expensive. $200 is a lot for a bag that is going to get destroyed in airplane cargo holds. Is only really going from A to B, and isn’t going to interact with you that much. It’s an amazing product, but really too good for what it needs to do. If you have to carry lots of stuff over lots of rough terrain for a long period of time across many locations, this bag is worth it. But I don’t think hardly anyone travels that way.
Eh, i disagree. I don't see this material being destroyed (some airlines, I know, can be really good at destroying bags), and I don't agree that "it's only going from A to B" means it doesn't need to do much. Getting from A to B *is* travel. And there are lots of shitty things that can happen between A and B. My love of good design is rooted in godawful and unnecessary experiences in life. You're right about this being in the running for a new kind of king of travel duffels.
You will need an ICBM missile to destroy this chick, she made up of really tough material literally, indestructible. My only beef is PD could have done with a lithe more organization and I sorely miss the dedicated Shoe compartment.
Peak material is tough as hell, I own the 10L Sling and the 20L Everyday backpack and you could probably attack them with knives and ninjas with swords and they would be fine and I’m only half joking. Duffels are hard to destroy too, no wheels or hard corners, get a little dirty at best.
Hi, I'm a big fan of your reviews and as a mom of 2 I'm very interested in bags etc. specifically suited for family travel. Could you maybe do a video about your favorite bags for when you travel with your family?
@@chasereeves It really looks amazing! I also liked your review of the Tom Bihn Aeronaut together with your wife and kids. I guess that would also be a family favourite? Also I'm interested what and how your wife likes to carry when you travel together. I'll just keep watching your videos, you often mention aspects of family travel. But if you ever consider doing a family specific "top bags" video, I will definitely watch that! Thank you for the great work and the fun pep talks! All the best to you and your family!
If you follow the advise of one of the early adopters above there seems to be some serious conceptual flaws with the 35L Duffel and googling confirms that those concerns happen to be legit. So now I have ordered for these duffel-packs instead one in each color. That said if Peak Design fixes those I will buy the 35L Duffel as well.
@@VoxPopuli911 hmm, interesting... i've seen complaints about the magnet in the strap handles being too weak. didn't read about anything else though, what else was raised?
Jeff, Tom Bihn Road Buddy Duffel 60 is a great duffel bag but nothing really in terms of design or functionality to rave about. Also the look is very constructed & conventional.
Kayenn May Thx for the reply! I have 5 or 6 Tom Bihn bags and a ton of accessories, definitely a huge fan. The Road Buddy’s are a bit old school looking, agreed, but have some nice functionality on the inside. Similar to the TB Aeronaut bags but with more pockets/zippers. I wasn’t sure I’d Chase has seen them yet. I’ll probably order one next week. Most duffel bags do not keep their structure when under-packed but the RB looks like it does, according to some reviews.
Kayenn May Me too, haha! I look at other brands but always end up with TB bags. Peak bags have always seem focused on photographers. There stuff does look top notch, though. Maybe their tech pouch in the future, looks great!
Does this have a shoulder strap? I would like to place a Sony FS7 in it, and hopefully it fits. But a shoulder strap is almost necessary, so the camera doesn't tumble around :)
Love your videos as always though I prefer the old background 😁...anyway...How do you make sure the bag is secure and zips are not opened when checked-in? Does the bag comes with rain cover or we need to wrap it?
@@KeithVlk thread end not trimmed, zip does not work well...for me 165 for the design is ok, but if it's 200-300, most of the bag at this price have better quality, I got the travel line too, they are much better than this one, I can found 5-10 places have the thread not trimmed
@@kaykwong1888 you should just contact Peak Design, I contacted them about something like that with the travel line backpack and they immediately sent a new bag.
I wish there was a place to securely store my laptop and have easy access for tsa 😑 for that I give it a 9/10. Other than that I love everything about it!!!
A Peak Design introduction without putting camera in it will never be a good Peak Design review. People even can't know what this can do and how it is better after your 30 min. Intro.
I have their PRVKE series and love it but HEXAD is over thought-out & over designed. Also the shell is too rigid & unforgiving had to return it after only a week of use.

I wasn’t sure I’d Chase has seen them yet. I’ll probably order one next week. Most duffel bags do not keep their structure when under-packed but the RB looks like it does, according to some reviews.
@@LtCore I have a couple of TB too. They are very well made, like Chase here. I too am a BAG WHORE :)
Kayenn May Me too, haha! I look at other brands but always end up with TB bags. Peak bags have always seem focused on photographers. There stuff does look top notch, though. Maybe their tech pouch in the future, looks great!
Any list on matterful for carry ons that fits under the seat?
Yea! Hybrid travel bags: matterful.co
Always a great time watching your videos ……… my feel good time on the web
🍻
20:20 Why didn't you open the bag to it's full capacity 65L when you were demonstrating the inside of the bag with the packing cubes?
Does this have a shoulder strap? I would like to place a Sony FS7 in it, and hopefully it fits. But a shoulder strap is almost necessary, so the camera doesn't tumble around :)
Love your videos as always though I prefer the old background 😁...anyway...How do you make sure the bag is secure and zips are not opened when checked-in? Does the bag comes with rain cover or we need to wrap it?
I got mine last week, good design, shit quality, ok for pre order price from Kickstarter, over price for original price
Just curious...what is shitty about the quality? Most of their products I have seem to be pretty great quality.
@@KeithVlk thread end not trimmed, zip does not work well...for me 165 for the design is ok, but if it's 200-300, most of the bag at this price have better quality, I got the travel line too, they are much better than this one, I can found 5-10 places have the thread not trimmed
@@kaykwong1888 you should just contact Peak Design, I contacted them about something like that with the travel line backpack and they immediately sent a new bag.
Could you review the minaal crossbody bag?
yea, if they'd return my emails!
Minaal Crossbody is a great bag but only if they can slash the price by some 30% or so. It should ideally be in the $65-75 range.
I thought you were going to pull out a standard lamp - Mary Poppins style.
Always entertaining. Great job.
Is there a laptop pocket?
No
I always love your Rick Steves shoutouts hehe
That fucking sound effect at 2:25 jfc
Any chance you can review the small bro 35L of that one?
He has a video of the regular Peak travel bag up from when they first came out.
@@admingeneral6532 I meant the 35l duffel bag. Sorry.
@@JP-be9cx Yeap, i see it. On the Peak page it says "coming soon", maybe not out yet?
Ordered it thanks chase!
@Chase - what do those two huge zippers along the edges of the rigid material on the bottom do? Is that where it expands?
Is it better than the previous 45L one?
I wish there was a place to securely store my laptop and have easy access for tsa 😑 for that I give it a 9/10. Other than that I love everything about it!!!
dan cummins was the comedian, the bit was called whiskey, laudanum, saw!
the 35L does have shoulder straps...
This guy is very amused with himself.

whipple-snarfs
I'm here and you're not!, why not?
You are right. You ARE a daddy 😏
review the REI Big Haul 60 duffel bag
You are dope bro. You kill it. Keep it coming 🍻
A Peak Design introduction without putting camera in it will never be a good Peak Design review.
People even can't know what this can do and how it is better after your 30 min. Intro.
Another fun review, keep up the hard work.
Great review man, thanks!
34 minutes?
Welcome to Chase Reeves..... He is an entertainer and informational. He is an Infotainer.
Awesome review) so passionate!) Thanks
What happened to the video quality this ep?
The new wandrd is outttt, check it chase
I have their PRVKE series and love it but HEXAD is over thought-out & over designed. Also the shell is too rigid & unforgiving had to return it after only a week of use.
Vox Populi the Prvke remains the dopest bag in terms of aesthetic. Wandrd and Peak Design never stop innovating so I try to get best of both worlds🤔
Oh so you added that cheesy WB cartoon sound effect, but no longer have those random screams of yours...booooo
Gotta mix it up.
That's a great pppack
Done deal. My wife and I can like totally put both of our ... (children, no) ... packing cubes inside of here.
A waaaay toooo long video.. I love the bag, but come on dude. Ceep it clean and snappy.. your repeating way to much. :)
ReyZ I hope you’re being sarcastic
UGLY @@@@ Definitely need more colours or this gets beat easily by its competitors just based on colour
