Peak Design unveils a new Outdoor Line of camera backpacks and slings







Peak Design started a new funding campaign, and in just a few hours, they raised already almost $500k on Kickstarter:

   

Additional information:

The line consists of 2 backpacks, 2 slings, and an ecosystem of Packing Tools for clothes, gear, and photography equipment. The Outdoor Backpack—available in 45L and 25L sizes—is differentiated by its unique harness system that uses low-profile, hyper-adjustable shoulder and waist straps to provide superior comfort and fit with significantly less bulk. Shoulder straps inspired by running vests distribute weight over a greater surface area while also providing convenient storage and dual camera-carry attachment points. Users are treated to 2 different forms of access: a quick-opening top hatch (called Ultra Cinch™) and a giant rear access panel for easy packing and total visibility. The backpack provides seemingly endless capacity for external storage via its versatile Cord Hook™ carry system and a network of stretchy Flex Pockets™ that can hold water bottles, tripods, jackets, and more.

Complimenting the Outdoor Backpack is the Peak Design Outdoor Sling, available in 7L and 2L sizes. The Outdoor Sling features a padded, removable strap with custom clasp and quick-adjustment hardware allowing it to quickly convert from a cross-body bag to a waist bag. The 7L model features external carry Gear Loops and can accommodate a Peak Design X-Small Camera Cube to instantly become a camera bag. Both Outdoor Slings can be mounted to the shoulder straps of the Outdoor Backpacks to provide convenient chest-mounted storage while on the trail.

All of Peak Design’s new bags are designed to seamlessly integrate with their Camera Cubes (updated in late 2023) and Ultralight Packing Cubes (launched in June 2024), which enable users to quickly customize their pack-outs for any combination of gear. Camera Cubes are available in 5 sizes to accommodate any creative kit, from mirrorless cameras and drones all the way to full-blown professional photography kits. All bags in the Outdoor Line feature Peak’s new PFAS-free 100% recycled weatherproof Terra Shell™ exterior fabric, proprietary abrasion-resistant Ultra Zips™, and UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) cording that is highly slash resistant.
