The City Backpack 22L is built for people who move through the city with intention. It sheds the visual weight and rigidity of traditional technical backpacks in favor of a softer silhouette, lighter structure, and a more refined feel—while still delivering the thoughtful organization Peak Design is known for.

Every detail is edited for real daily use: quick access when you’re in motion, dedicated protection for your laptop and tablet, and intuitive internal layout that keeps essentials exactly where you expect them. Custom materials and hardware add durability without noise, and the stowable BagLev™ hook solves the everyday problem of where your bag goes when you stop.

Equally at home on a commute, in the office, or on a light trip, the City Backpack 22L isn’t about doing everything—it’s about making everyday carry feel easier, calmer, and more considered.
