I actually prefer velcro. As a growing community of photographers with pacemakers keeps growing, we appreciate options other than magnets that are a potential danger.
Great video. Surprised it doesn’t have many views. This looks like such ah underrated product for its price. It looks perfect for taking on the plane and hanging from the tray table.
It also fits nicely into their everyday backpack. Helpful to throw my EDC into the bigger pack when I am taking my laptop.
Really wish they went with a smaller version of their magnetic latch here. Worth the cost upgrade IMO to market this as an actual viable EDC sling. As it stands (well, it doesn't anymore since they took out the hypalon base that the V1 had...) it is more like the sling you'd take if you forgot your actual sling. Love it as a tech pouch though as I don't carry enough dongles and gizmos to justify the PD tech pouch price.
I have the v1, which I use to organize some little odds and ends when traveling (oura chargers, cables, running watch, etc). This looks like a nice upgrade. It’s not a perfect bag but it’s overall pretty solid. The new strap system (with an included strap) is a nice touch. I’d still love to see PD tackle a proper sling like the minaal sling, apart from the current line of camera specific slings (which I love).
Thanks for sharing, Greg!

Much like the everyday backpack v2, this looks more like a side grade than a direct upgrade.
Wished the belt loop could open up like their range pouch so you could take it on and off straps easier. Velcro is ok but I do wish it used an extra form of closure; like an adjustable g hook or buckle that doubles as a strap to hold a jacket or other accessories. Maglatch would add too much bulk and probably won't be cost effective for a bag this size.
Internally from what I'm seeing, I feel like I prefer the 1.0 internals more than the 2.0, the 2.0 feels more stripped down compared to the 1.0. I like having all the pockets in the 1.0 to separate my keys, wallet, batteries, Chargers, passport, etc. Would also be interesting to see how practical it would be to have pockets on the flap.
Wish it was a slide strap that was included, that one looks cheap. Also, for someone that plans to work in the field in the natural sciences, this is why I went with this bag. Plus the ability to expand it to three liters. Think of former cartographers, this is the classic design of a field pouch they went with, except not leather straps, but modern Velcro. Still gives the overall aesthetic of pouches of the past 2 centuries.
Looks like a nice every day carry around town.
That wall of bags behind you is so cool
Thanks for the support!
- Austin
Nice to see all of your valuables are in that pouch, so hand it over to me if you know what's good for you...makes my job alot easier...😎 I have an older one and wear a jacket over it and its harder for pickpockets to get into it because the opening flaps over with Velcro.
What are some other competitors for same type of bag?
Did you you all change video recording equipment? Either RUclips is streaming better or the new camera is recording extremely well. Looks good.
We have been upgrading gear and have recently moved to a new space. Thanks for noticing!
- Austin
@@PackHacker2 From what I can hear in the video, it sounds like it’s a larger space! I’m sure once you have some bags hanging on the wall and such (behind the camera), the room sound will be deadened (not criticizing, sound is plenty clear even with the tiny bit of room reverb, just interesting to note). Enjoyed the video, good content!
What watch are you wearing?
Excellent Review, Great Bag but the Velcro is disappointing.
Tom and the Pack Hacker Team can you please get an explanation from the Peak Design Team on the Velcro selection when a smaller Mag-Latch or G-Hook would have made this the ultimate Pouch/Man Bag. I really want to buy this, but the Velcro is such a turn off and inconsistent with the premium feel of the Peak Design brand. Now i have wait for V3 of the pouch with a safe and tight closing mechanism (Smaller Mag Latch or G-Hook)
We Need Answers!!!
Hear hear! I agree. I'm not buying it until it doesn't have velcro.
How does the stock strap compare to a PD Leash? Is there enough difference to buy a leash for this bag or is it too similar i.e. not worth buying a leash for it?
I think the main advantage of the PD leashes are their cross-compatibility. I have the PD attachment points permanently on my camera, and a carry a few extra on trips. That way I can grab only one leash and a wrist strap, and use the leash on any PD product at any time. For instance, on a recent trip to Greece I had the travel backpack with the small camera cube. I wanted to bring my camera gear for a dinner, but felt that the backpack was too big-> attached the leash to the small camera cube, which worked out perfectly.
How does that flap actually hold on to the main section, i dont see any hooks on that top part of the flaw, it showed glossy in the iverhead camera. Are the hooks that small on the flap, looks like it on camera
You don’t know what Velcro is?
@@moonlad3835 yes I do,but looking at the video And the photos. It looks different vs what I I'm used to. I've not seen Velcro where the part with the hooks is so shiny as if there are hardly any hooks present. Not sure I'm explaining it clear
Hey what is the watch looking thing strapping on your left wrist ?
If you pause at exactly 1:37, you can see it's a type of watch. A digital watch to be exact.
It´s a VOID PXR-5 Watch
Just got one and i checked this video to make sure it wasnt just my bag, but when you pull the strap all the way down, it doesnt lay flat against the bag. Theres slack that makes it look really sloppy. Very disappointed. Otherwise its an ok bag.
I hope the durability is also having upgrade, the v1 just horrible. Very weak velcro, the fabric holding ring for attaching quick release tear apart just, not last long for edc cellphone, 10k mah anker and card wallet 😞
I have the blue one
Inside key sling missing bad
meh still velcro... yuck... the interior dividers made it a lot harder to use the V1. Wish they just had a big open space in there with that one zipper compartment for flat objects and that is it.
Waiting for the v3 were they do something smart with the flap instead of stupid velcro....peak design really missed the mark on this one. And the straps, will those hooks really will stay in place? Ill pass on this one
What else do you want to see in the third iteration? 🧐
-Eric
Agree, I only use this if I'm carrying camera gear that is very small that doesn't fill it up completely. Completely filling it up only allows a small contact area between the velcro and the velcro keeps coming undone. The other issue is the strap connection points are not at the top of the bag when it's completely full, this causes the bag to want to tip forward. Add in the fact that the velcro doesn't hold well and there's a possibility of your lens/camera falling out. I don't think there's anything wrong with velcro per se, it's just the version they picked. It doesn't hold well at all. First disappointing purchase from peak design. I think a good solution would be to add a zipper to the top opening with the flap covering it.
It's mad that they made a world in which dudes are just actively looking at purses, and I'm fully here for it tbqh
It’s much more convenient! 😃
-Eric
I really like this for edc, I just really dislike velcro
I would call it urban man purse.... not sure what field would mean in this name. It is a nice design!
I really like PD stuff. Have allot of it. Don’t like this one though.
immediately not sold on the velcro. I'm in a movie theater, oh let's just open my bag RIIIIIPPPP. hey everyone, look at me, I have a man purse I'd like to draw your attention to.
would it fit envelope 23x11 cm?
That should fit, but it might get bent!
-Eric
I don't know how I would use this. I have a phone, wallet, and keys that I put in my pants pockets. I have nothing else to carry, In the colder months, I also have a jacket with pockets.
velcro is a BIG NOPE
So it’s a purse, I love peak design bags but gonna pass on this one
Velcro. Yuk.
So a man purse
