Product Information

Full details

The Peak Design Travel Backpack 30L in Coyote is designed for adults seeking a versatile, carry-on compliant backpack for short trips and everyday use. Its key benefit is the expandable, weather-resistant design offering full access for easy packing. A potential caveat is that carrying camera cubes is best suited for its expanded form, and the 45L model might be preferred for extensive photo gear. This rugged daypack is built from 100% recycled nylon canvas and features a large rear hatch, an enlarged top pocket, weatherproof zippers, and dedicated laptop/tablet sleeves.

FAQs

What is the difference between the 30L and 45L Travel Backpacks?

The 30L is a smaller, more compact version ideal for 1-3 day trips or as a daily carry bag. The 45L offers more capacity for longer trips and is better suited for carrying extensive camera gear.

Can the Peak Design Travel Backpack 30L be used as a personal item on a plane?

In its compressed 27L state, it often fits under the seat as a personal item. When expanded to 33L, it meets most international carry-on requirements but may need to go in the overhead bin.

Is the backpack suitable for carrying camera gear?

Yes, it works with Peak Design Camera Cubes, but they fit best when the backpack is expanded to 33L. For photographers with extensive gear, the 45L model is recommended.

What materials is the backpack made from?

The backpack is constructed from 100% recycled 400D nylon canvas with a 900D bottom liner. It is also Fair Trade Certified and 100% carbon neutral.

How do I clean the backpack?

Spot clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials and weatherproof coatings.

Are packing cubes included with the backpack?

No, Peak Design Packing Cubes and Pouches are sold separately but are designed to integrate seamlessly with the backpack for organized packing.

What is the warranty for this backpack?

Peak Design offers a lifetime guarantee on their products against manufacturing defects.

Troubleshooting

Backpack feels uncomfortable when worn

Adjust the shoulder straps for a proper fit. Ensure the load is balanced. Consider attaching the optional hip belt accessory for better weight distribution.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric or debris caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to clear the obstruction. If the zipper still sticks, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.

External carry straps won't stay secured

Ensure the straps are properly threaded through their designated anchor points and tightened firmly. Double-check that any clips or buckles are fully engaged.

Water bottle pocket feels too small

The side pockets are designed for standard-sized water bottles or tripods. For larger items, consider using the internal space or the external carry straps.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Expandable from 27L to 33L, meeting carry-on standards.
  • Full rear hatch provides easy access to all contents.
  • Durable and weather-resistant construction using recycled materials.
  • Thoughtful organization with dedicated pockets and sleeves.
  • Comfortable and versatile carrying options with stowable straps.
  • Environmentally conscious manufacturing (recycled, Fair Trade, carbon neutral).

Cons

  • Camera cube compatibility is best in expanded (33L) mode.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This backpack requires minimal setup. Simply adjust the shoulder straps for a comfortable fit. The stowable hip belt (sold separately) can be attached if additional lumbar support is desired for longer carrying periods.

Compatibility:

  • Carry-on Size: Meets international carry-on size requirements in both compressed (27L) and expanded (33L) states. Always verify with specific airlines for their most current regulations.
  • Accessories: Designed to work seamlessly with Peak Design Packing Cubes, Pouches, and Camera Cubes (sold separately). Camera cubes fit best in the expanded 33L configuration.
  • Laptop/Tablet Sleeves: Accommodates most standard laptops and tablets within its dedicated padded sleeves.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  • Zippers: The #10 UltraZip is designed for durability. Keep it free from debris and lubricate occasionally if needed with a silicone-based lubricant for optimal performance.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure the backpack is fully dry before long-term storage to prevent mildew.
