It looks like Black and Sage are still the $225 sale price, but Coyote is back to normal price in cart for me

Is this the version 1 or version 2? Also, that's too bad, about the Coyote color being back to normal price. I like the fabric on the Coyote color then the black and sage colors.

That's a good question, I couldn't find any info on which version or any zipper details.
For what it's worth, according to the site reviews, it does appear the ones on peakdesign site do not have the ykk zippers, if that's a determining factor.

And agreed, bummer on the coyote color being full-price again. Frown

I guess I'm beating a dead horse here in mentioning the weight. You may scoff at the "4 pounds" and thinking that's nothing. However, when you're lugging this thing with a camera, laptop, and whatever else gear you have...you'd have wished you had a lighter pack.

This is especially true if you end up not using like 90% of the organizational features of a pack like this, which is where most of the weight comes from. Tons of little pockets/dividers/secret compartments/zippers everywhere. But what I found that i used it as was really just the giant middle compartment.

I had the 30L version of this back

Strap is uncomfortable. The bag retains shape whether it's full or empty but the issue is that it becomes too bulky. Switched to Osprey instead and it's night and day

I think this is the version 1. PD has not come out with a refresh or new version yet. But, I think PD will release new designs and/or color soon.
I am looking for a travel backpack. There are so many out there and I am torn between this PD, the Tortuga packable backpack, Pakt (waiting for new version/hopefully new material), and Aer/Ablecarry.

Adding to cart, the price magically lowers to 224.93. This is a really good travel pack, although the 45L volume claim is ambitious. It is more like a 35L if you ask me.
Two water bottle holders (external) that hold up a 32 oz Nalgene.

https://www.rei.com/product/24329...-pack-45-l

They do this with every bag but the bag is more 35L when it's not expanded and 45L when the expansion zipper is opened up.

I just got mine. The zippers are not YKK but work very well regardless.

I own this bag as well since 2018 and it's very uncomfortable and straps dig in like everyone says. Took it to Japan and Europe and it sucked but it's also indestructible. I've since purchased a second bag , AER and it's way more comfortable but I still like the looks of my peak design more as well as the ruggedness and ability to turn it into 35L. Each bag will serve its own purpose, and I plan to add the Ruckpack 40 to my collection since I plan to use it for the gym
