Found my unicorn personal item bag.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my unicorn personal item/EDC. Easy to carry and access all areas. It is perfect. My favorite bit is the surprisingly roomy little side pocket that has the hook. I put my AirPods/lip balm in here for easy but hidden access. The front magnetic pocket with a back pocket/luggage holder (thin but does the job) is what i was after. Roomy on inside and comfortable carry. The color is gorgoeus. I moved onto this from my Bellroy cresent because it didn't have a front pocket. Fits my 750mg Evervessel drink bottle

Perfect for going extremely light

I normally travel with camera gear and have been using PD bags for years, but currently traveling in India and needed to go as light as possible so this 12L City Crescent arrived just in time. Imaging gear on this trip is just an iPhone and Osmo Pocket 3, so I didn't need all the padding or Flexfold dividers. The rest of the items I'm carrying are actual essentials like a water bottle, insect repellant, sanitized wet wipes, light rain jacket, etc. I especially appreciate the built in Baglev hook because the ground can be pretty gnarly here. Great job, PD!

I love everything but some stitching

I have two 6l bags and a12l, and both sizes fit my needs perfectly for different activities. The amount of organization is ideal, and I love the magnetic pocket, which I have in another bag and appreciate. The only thing I don’t love is some stitching looks stretched even with nothing in the bag. It makes it look cheap. Ideally, the strap would be a quick-release, but I understand their wanting to keep it tidy, without flapping excess strap length.

Perfect Day Bag

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this bag for my trip to Copenhagen and I absolutely love it. Great quality. Helpful water resistance though now quite water proof for heavier rain. The magnetic pouch on the outside is a total game changer. Perfect for my phone, airpods and chapstick. At first I was unsure about only being able to fit my 750ml Nalgene in the water bottle pocket, but it's so nice to have a quick sip of water on me at all times, even if I don't have my big water bottle with me.I also got the small tech pouch to keep inside to organize my chargers and what not to add some more separation and compartments.

Ok Bag

My family is a PD-fan. Like other PD products, the bag is well made - great fabric, size is perfect for travel and every day use. Great selection of colors. Love the bottle holder - thought it can only fit a small bottle like the mini Hydroflask. The Bageey Hook Ayatem is ok - I can do without since I do not hang my bags in public places. The air tag tolder is a treat though not necessary. Almost the perfect casual bag - except for I would have preferred a zippered section or more pockets for organization in the main compartment and a better strap. There is a zippered conpartment in the exterior of the bag but i I do not think it is sufficient. I am not a fan of where the key tether is located - i would have preferred that it is inside the main compartment or the zippered secrion instead of magnetized pockt. With price of the Creacent, there are better similar sized and shape bags in the market that offer more functionality.

BagLev™ bag hook could be better

The BagLev™ bag hook opening needs to be just 1/4" wider. The edge on many restaurant tables have a 2-inch wide board around the edge to hide the fact that the table is a thin thickness. The 2-inch opening on the BagLev™ bag hook just misses. I've had other bag hooks with the same problem, until I found one with a 2.25-inch opening.

Perfect big enough everyday bag!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my perfect everyday bag!! I’ve been searching for a bag that fits my 1.5L frank green water bottle, kindle, medicine pouch, sunglasses, and foldable umbrella all in one but not too big as backpack. This solves everything! Perfect size, colour, and functionality. I love the ring for hanging keychain too!

Excellent bag!

I just got this in the mail and it really exceeded my expectations. It's my second peak design bag and I took a chance on this because the first one I bought was just so well-designed. I wanted something very slouchy, with a strap short enough to carry as a shoulder bag but adjustable to be long enough to carry crossbody. I didn't want it keeping its form since sometimes I don't have a lot to carry but other times I do (I have the 12L). This is an excellent bag, the material is great and I really don't think the pictures do it justice.

Beautiful color, but…

I honestly wanted to like this bag, but it’s just not for me. The color is beautiful and some of the features are convenient but the fabric stains easily and the bag is a slouchy mess. Doesn’t look very good with more than a few things in it and bulky books or lenses just make it look blobby. Plus, the bag is really poorly balanced with those bulkier items in it and the way the pockets are designed, they quickly become difficult to use when the bag is full. Save your money and get some else.
