We are huge fans of everything Peak Design does, but this is definitely our favorite pack of theirs yet. Simply because of the look.

Just discovered this channel and I don’t even need a new bag. But just wanted to say you guys deserve more viewers. You guys do some super amazing shots it’s pure eye candy 🥺

[@Nomads.Nation]

thanks so much! our camerman/editor Tav is a wizard - without him it'd just be me blabbing nonsense on camera 😂

[@RazahLP]

These are very good reviews. I like them a lot and they help me very well in my buying decision! 🙂 Thanks!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks dude, glad you find ourcontent useful!

[@ariindra4801]

Hey Aaron, Greetings from Melbourne! I came across your channel about a month ago when I was searching for a 'perfect' backpack. I have seen many backpack reviews, but I must say that the way you and Nomads Nation deliver the contents is impressive, structured, clear, engaging, no-nonsense, friendly and somewhat familiar and relates to us - the standard world dwellers who constantly looking for something more and aspire to be a better somebody else. Btw, I've been looking for a dual or multi-carry 16L to 20L day work pack, which I can wear with a suit and casual equally. I like the standard minimalist slim slightly rectangular look, old-school flap and magnetic latches like the BS Errant, but like you, I'm not much of a camera guy. And, the rolltop is a nice look, but cumbersome. Built-in organisation pockets will help. The material ideally needs to be natural and eco-friendly, like cotton, sailcloth or x-pac type fabric. And, it needs to be lightweight. I've tried Boundary Supply, QWSTION, Arc'teryx, Waterfield, Bellroy, but none seems to be quite the right one - each one is missing one or more elements. All of these criteria have been a challenge for me, but might not be the case for you and the Nomads Nation in your passion searching for a perfect backpack. Much appreciate it if you can recommend some options. Cheers

[@Nomads.Nation]

Hey Ari, thanks for your amazing comment! As for your quest for the perfect pack... Have you looked at the Able Cary Thirteen?

[@ariindra4801]

@@Nomads.Nation Cheers! Have just watched (again) your review on Able Carry Thirteen. Great review, and the bag is very similar to my Granville 16L. Good size, love the material, angled zip pocket and internal water bottle too. I also like the flap action and locking mechanism of dayfarer backpack (Fidlock) or life behind bars breakaway (cobra buckle). Perhaps the hybrid between these bags would be the ideal solution. I'll keep watching the space...and your reviews too!

[@alzdsz]

Wow I've never been this early to your video. Feels awesome

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks so much for the support!

[@MarkFriedman-hm5tf]

Aaron- great review thanks, love the passion and knowledge. Definitely concerned the Peak Toteback is more beauty than function. Have you seen the Tom Bihn Addax 26- would be curious on your take especially vs Wandrd. Thanks!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks mark! I haven’t reviewed any Tom Bihn bags yet but hopefully soon

[@sarwindo87]

Hey Aaron, I think it's worth to mention another pro's is Peak Design's famous lifetime warranty. Great video as always. Cheers

[@Nomads.Nation]

AMAZING point! This is something I always forget to talk about in my reviews and I shouldn't cuz it's so crucial! I'll be sure to try to add this in future reviews, seriously thank you :)

[@NguyenHoang_17]

Hi Aaron, this review is what I just need ! Very detailed ! But I still wonder about the color, the bone colorway has a better look than black ones but I am scared it would get dirtied in long term.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Glad to hear the review helped dude! And I agree, the bone looks much better, but it WILL get dirty faster. But if you don't mind cleaning it often, I think it will be OK in the long run

[@cal7447]

For me, the fact that we can't shoulder-carry the bag kind of defeats the whole purpose of a tote, basically leaving this as a fancy but not-so-comfortable backpack (which is a valid premise in itself too, ofc). It's a bit of a shame they didn't integrate a way to maybe use the extra carry straps (that it already includes, but which I doubt many would actually use) as shoulder carry straps in tote-mode. If it sounds like I'm complaining, it's just that I was really tempted by this... As it stands rn, it's kind of an awkward use case that I can't really justify a purchase for.

[@cal7447]

Actually, the more I look at it, the more I think it might be possible to hook the extra straps onto just the top two attachment loops and create a shoulder strap that way. Now I'm tempted to give it a go again…

[@Nomads.Nation]

Haha keep me posted with what you do!

[@laurencegoldman4639]

I was told you can pull the "backpack straps" all the through to one side allowing the bag to go over your head sling style and shift bag to your back.

[@akashmehta1637]

Hi I am trying buy this totepack from your given link below , but its not giving discount while checking out . kindly guide

[@Nomads.Nation]

There's no discount code, it's just the best price on the web to make sure you don't end up on a scam site or getting ripped off

[@ephinefrin]

Wow, my wife would love these. I wonder how easy is to clean, like if my son attacks it with crayons. Will I be able to remove it or will stay like a crazy toddler art show forever? Great vid as always.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Great question Peter and thanks for the kind words! I would say that in the hypothetical situation that there was a crayon-attack you would probablyyyy be able to clean it off, but don’t take that as gospel 🖍🖍🖍

[@NetvoTV]

Is it too girly for the white one? The black one I afraid too dark and the slickness won't able to easy to notice!

[@denis-kravets]

I'm not sure, if you knew or that pun was by accident, but this "bone" color was indeed inspired by this film :)

[@Nomads.Nation]

Ah I figured it was! Love me American Psycho 🪓

[@akashmehta1637]

Hi , need your help . wish to buy a tote bag for my wife . which one you recommend the best ? Second if at all you suggest this tote , then which colour looks elegant as she is a jeweller . Thanks

Wish I could help mate but elegant totes is not my forte lol

[@cgxj0907]

Hi there Aaron, Greeting from Singapore. I've been doing some research for the best totepack which suit me thus came across your channel. Must say that the way you and Nomads Nation has delivered the contents were impressive, structured, clear, engaging, doesn't beat around the bushes, and friendly. The 2 bags that gave me the best impression are "Peak Design, Everyday Tote Pack" which I like that it was sleek, simple and able to conceal everything when is a tote bag & "Wandrd ALL-NEW PRVKE" has the back support, able to open wide on the middle of the bag and there quite a few small compartments but I do not like the part where its not scratch proof. So I wanted a bag which I able to put a file, a set of clothings, wallet, wireless earphone, and some other small items at the same time look great and sexy. Do you have any recommendation?

[@Nomads.Nation]

thanks for the kind words. While the Peak Design Tote Pack is GORGEOUS, it has a lot of functionality problems, and can't fit a lot of gear. It should be able to fit your load, but it's hard to know for sure. For that reason I'd recommend going with the PRVKE out of the two.

[@animaxxx4429]

Hey, when are you gonna do Sings for a small mirroless camera roundup?

[@Nomads.Nation]

It’s on our to do list but might take some time! Stay posted :D

[@animaxxx4429]

@@Nomads.Nation okay.

[@MrPinpoint007]

I got this and returned it. The top handle was super uncomfortable to hold. Plus the top handle was so short that I scraped my knuckles every time I grabbed it. Lastly, it was so stiff and the openings were too small.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Yea it’s a gorgeous pack, just not a very functional one

[@laurencegoldman4639]

What about wisdom of buying a white bag? How long will it stay white?

[@Nomads.Nation]

Depends on how careful you are and how well you clean it. I’d def go for black though

[@primorock8141]

I love the colour but I don't see myself with one😂

[@Nomads.Nation]

I actually think I agree! While I objectively love the color I don’t think it’s for me

[@CubireviewsBlogspotDe]

I was very disappointed receiving mine and returned it a couple days later. The front pocket is way too small, the top doesn‘t open wide enough and I just couldn‘t organize properly with the provided dividers. Yes it looks really nice, but that‘s it. Form over function.

[@Nomads.Nation]

cant argue with that. Some people adore this thing but for me I do think it lacks a bit too much functionality

[@ev6377]

this is amazing but scary at the same time.. imagine anyone tripping with your bag's side access while walking and your camera gear falls off.. yeah there's a way to secure the zipper but that definitely destroys the purpose of having easy access..(maybe put a small carabiner in the g-hook and attach it to the zipper to make it a bit easier to lock and unlock) but well, there will always be pros and cons. the pros in this bag totally outweigh the cons.. and the design! the design just nailed it!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Totally agreed dude, the bag has it's faults, but they freaking NAILED the design

[@NetvoTV]

Is it too girly for the white one? The black one I afraid too dark and the slickness won't able to easy to notice!

[@Nomads.Nation]

'girly' is in the eye of the beholder! As long as you like it, that's all that matters :)

[@NetvoTV]

@@Nomads.Nation that's true! By the way, do you need any design service? I just started as freelancer and would like to make use my passion to help out and also gain some side income I needed!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Haha glad to hear!!

[@kevting4512]

20L ain't much but its DOABLE for world travel. So long as the packing is minimal.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Agreed but you’d have to pack suuuuppperrrr minimal. Plus access/capacity in the main compartment is quite limited. I think a 20 L like the nomatic backpack or wandrd duo would be better options :)

[@tianyiliu6662]

Something weird is that there is no divider between the top half and bottom half. With that said, if I'm putting my camera and lens at the bottom and put something else on the top, it will scratch my gears...

[@Nomads.Nation]

💯

[@tianyiliu6662]

@@Nomads.Nation is that really an issue? I don’t own this totepack but am debating whether I should get Everyday Tote 15L or Totepakc 20L

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@tianyiliu6662 not in my opinion, no. Remember, PD is considered by many to be the ultimate photography backpack brand, so I'm sure their bag structures are designed perfectly for DSLR gear (but take that with a grain of salt, I am NOT a photographer)

[@barbarajloriordan2697]

It appears that if you carry it as a tote, there are no shoulder straps. That could be a deal breaker for many who want a convertible backpack tote.

[@Nomads.Nation]

It does though 🤔

[@barbarajloriordan2697]

@@Nomads.Nation!! Maybe I am missing something. It looks like the tote handles are only for hand carry. Many convertible totes also have an arrangement for longer, shoulder-length carrying strap. Usually, you can unhook one of the backpack straps and then hook it into a different ring so that you have a shoulder-bag arrangement. It is really handy. On this bag, though, you could just stow one strap and carry as a sling when you want a shoulder type of bag.

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@barbarajloriordan2697 ahhh my bad! Totally get your question now. No - there is no shoulder-tote-strap on this bag. Just the hand-tote-handles, and the 2 backpack shoulder straps. You could do your suggestion, but it would be a bit off balance - sling straps are usually positioned differently to give you more balance

[@hellokirk]

Wandrd PRVKE is pronounced "PROVOKE" btw 👍cheers!

[@meryshelley1]

The review was very nice and thorough but I fail to see how one could use this bag as a tote, like putting your whole arm through the hand straps? Why do they call it tote?

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks for the comment! And yeah, I guess it's not a TRUE tote, but it's sortof kindof tote-esque... lol

[@NetvoTV]

Buy me one and I tell you why ;)

@@NetvoTV good effort ;)

[@thomasyeu5626]

guess it is more of a totePACK, more pack, less tote. It will be nice if the hand straps have adjustable length though
