Our verdict
Reasons to buy
- Minimalistic and sleek design that would fit in seemingly any setting.
- Full of smart functional features such as the folding dividers, the pivoting joints of the shoulder straps, magnetic pouches everywhere, and the ambidextrous side access.
- Versatile organization because of the folding dividers. You can opt not to use it as well to make your bag slightly lighter.
- Well constructed and highly durable.
Things to consider
- Truly pricey for a 20L bag but it's full of features.
- The "origami" dividers show wear and tear over time.
- A bit heavy for a bag of this size with the dividers inside.
What reviewers said
- "The Everyday Backpack Zip is a perfect companion to the Travel Backpack. It's also perfect on its own. The design and high-quality materials make it very attractive and functional (like everything else Peak Design produces)."
- "Well thought out design that anticipates needs - Everyday Backpack Zip 20L (placement of straps, hooks, and camera inserts). Adjustments that realize not everyone is built the same (straps, zippers that can access left/right/top). Quality construction (zippers, materials). Weight - this was critical for me and I have carried this with and without the tripod (yours) for hours without pain or strain."
- "I didn't expect to get this much use out of a camera bag. I got the 20L since I wanted a minimalist travel bag that could also protect my camera. I love that the material is hard-wearing and the inner velcro compartments are entirely customizable and removable. The all-around zip makes the bag accessible from the top and sides. It also feels very ergonomic and I've walked across urban environments with it for hours with zero discomforts. It's a good minimalist travel backpack without looking like a travel backpack."

Peak Design were on point when they mentioned that the Everyday Backpack Zip is a visually and functionally simpler version of the iconic Everyday Backpack; however, this does not take away from just how great this bag looks and works.

Overall, this is a solid backpack. I don’t think I would mind using this as my EDC work bag on a permanent basis. Of course, I won’t because there are plenty of other backpacks I need to test out.
Review – Peak Design Everyday Backpack Zip 20L

Peak Design has once again designed a phenomenal camera bag. As mentioned earlier, the 20L version fits nicely between the Everyday Sling Bag 10L and the Everyday Backpack 30L. Overall, the bag, in our opinion, has been designed for the photographer that has a medium-sized kit that prefers to open the bag like a sling bag rather than a conventional backpack. Access to both sides of the bag without removing the bag will make it popular for travel and maybe even street photographers. If you are looking to purchase this bag as your first camera bag then we don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
