Built for Every Adventure

The Peak Design 45L Outdoor Backpack redefines outdoor versatility with its rugged design and thoughtful engineering. Designed for both casual explorers and serious adventurers, this internally-framed backpack offers a balance of comfort, durability, and adaptability. Its expandable roll-top provides an additional 10.5 liters of storage, while wide top and rear access points ensure quick, hassle-free packing and retrieval. 

Constructed from weatherproof, abrasion-resistant Terra Shell fabric, made with 100% recycled materials, the backpack performs reliably in demanding environments. Running vest-style straps and dual sternum straps distribute weight evenly, improving comfort over long distances. With four Capture Clip attachment points for quick camera access, it’s an ideal choice for outdoor photographers. Reflecting on its recognition, Peak Design Founder/CEO Peter Dering remarked, “The ISPO Award gives our brand validity that it belongs in this space.”

Modular Design for Maximum Flexibility

One of the standout features of the 45L Outdoor Backpack is its integration with Peak Design’s Packing Tool system, which transforms it into a customizable storage solution. Camera Cubes, available in multiple sizes, include lightweight, weatherproof materials and FlexFold dividers for endless organization options. For clothing or smaller gear, Ultralight Packing Cubes offer efficient and compact storage. 

The backpack’s internal 3-part spring steel frame combines flexibility with back and lumbar support, while the removable hip belt adds additional stability for rugged trails. External carry options, including Capture Clip points and adjustable straps, provide easy access to gear on the move. These features underscore Peak Design’s dedication to creating adaptable products for outdoor enthusiasts, earning the ISPO Award for its innovative and user-focused design.
