There are plenty of messenger bags on the market, but finding one that combines form and function is quite difficult. For that reason, Peak Design made the Everyday Messenger bag.

 

The Everyday Messenger, as you might expect, is adaptable for multiple purposes. Peak Design made a bag which crams in all of the features you need from a top-of-the-range camera bag, while also ensuring it is apt for everyday use.

 

 

Most specialist camera bags have fixed dimensions due to rigid dividers, and are too bulky to use when you are not carrying your gear. The Everyday Messenger boasts flexible dividers, and its beautifully-designed exterior gives no clue you are carrying expensive camera gear.

 

The bag also features a dedicated laptop/tablet pocket, with space for a device with a screen of up to 13.5 inches. High-quality construction and an innovative strap system means the Everyday Messenger can be used in all kinds of situations, and its weather-resistant materials will keep your gear safe and dry.

 

If you are out on a photo trip, an attachment called the Capture Camera Clip allows you to hook your camera to the outside of the bag, saving time when you spot the perfect shot and freeing up space inside the bag for other items. Such is the excitement around the Everyday Messenger, it smashed its $100,000 goal on Kickstarter and raised $2,749,674, making it the crowdfunding site’s most popular bag ever.
