Tested: Peak Design’s Clarino leather iPhone 16 case – almost suede-like with beautiful molded buttons

We have been covering the Peak Design Everyday canvas cases around here for at least a few years now, but this year it has introduced a whole new model made of a vegan Clarino Leather. How does it stand up against the bevy of vegan leather out there? Did the brand right its wrongs from last year’s Action Button mishap? The short answers are it’s very good and yes, it very much did. Scope out our hands-on impressions below.

Peak Design’s waterproof fabric iPhone 16 cases join all-new Clarino leather models

Peak Design and Nomad announced their latest collaboration last month, and today it’s time to take a hands-on look at the new Rugged iPhone 15 case. Nomad is one of our favorite accessory makers and we pretty consistently come away impressed with the Peak Design kit, including the Everyday Zip camera backpack we just went hands-on with, so we had high hopes for the new Nomad x Peak Design Rugged Case.

Tested: Peak Design’s Backpack Zip with FlexFold modular organization system

Today we are taking a closer look at Peak Design’s Everyday camera backpack. But just as the brand’s marketing would suggest, and after testing it out for myself for the last couple weeks, it’s really a great backpack for just about anyone. It has more than a few interesting elements you won’t find on a bargain bin carrier, with a price to match, so we thought we would put it to the test to see if its modular organization system was really as good as it sounded. Head below for our hands-on impressions of Peak Design’s Everyday camera backpack.

Peak Design – a brand focused on content-creators, camera accessories, and its range of smartphone add-on gear – is teaming up with the folks at Nomad to launch its new Rugged iPhone 15 case today. The brand, as far as the smartphone case scene is concerned, is perhaps best known for its fabric-wrapped Everyday case – a model we recently went hands-on with for review. But the new Peak Design x Nomad Rugged Case flips the script to some degree to provide a more robust solution designed in collaboration with the pros over at Nomad – a brand we are also quite fond of. Head below for a closer look at the new Peak Design x Nomad Rugged iPhone 15 Pro case.

The new Peak Design fabric iPhone 15 case has arrived in the form of its latest take on the Everyday Case. We have become big fans of the Peak Design gear, from its fantastic articulating MagSafe Car Vent Mount and Micro Clutch camera hand strap to its Everyday Sling 6L (V2) we featured in our roundup of the best models out there, but it also makes a nice wrapped fabric iPhone 15 case too.

Peak Design’s new 100% carbon-neutral tech sling pack for photographers and your EDC

Today we are taking a look at the new Peak Design tech and camera gear sling pack. Officially known as the FIELD POUCH V2, it is described as the brand’s only “organizer that is truly 2 bags in 1.” Delivering on a typical crossbody and over-shoulder sling pack experience as well as a compressible in-bag organizer, the new sling is designed to carry everything from your typical EDC and travel kit to all of your photography gear. While its lineup of goods features everything from the iPhone cases we reviewed previously to travel bags and its fantastic smartphone car mount, it is a brand that has always been focused on photographers and content creators to some degree. The new Micro Clutch camera hand strap and its popular strap anchors being a good example of that, its new FIELD POUCH V2 also sits in both camps. Head below for a closer look at the new Peak Design tech and camera gear sling pack.

Tested: Peak Design’s new articulating MagSafe Car Vent Mount launches today, and it’s one of the best I’ve used

The brand new Peak Design MagSafe Car Vent Mount has arrived. It launched today for the first time, but we have had a chance to test the new magnetic vent mount for a few weeks ahead of the launch. To put it bluntly, this is a good one. It’s not exactly the most affordable option out there, but if cheap car mounts have been even mildly as frustrating for you as they have been for me over the years, you’ll want to head below for more details and some of our hands-on impressions of the new Peak Design MagSafe Car Mount.

Tested: Peak Design’s Everyday case wraps your iPhone 14 in charcoal and sage MagSafe canvas

It’s now time to take a hands-on look at the Peak Design Everyday iPhone 14 fabric case. We were impressed with last year’s models and have now had a chance to put the iPhone 14 variant to the test. It is once again employing the textile treatment while combining magnetic and mechanical accessory connection systems, but is it worth dropping the $40+ down over some of the more affordable options out there. Head below for all of the details in our latest Tested with 9to5Toys feature.

Mobile by Peak Design is a unique accessory system with cases, tripods, more

Peak Design has to be one of my favorite camera accessory manufacturers around. From making a killer compact tripod to the backpack I carry on every shoot, Peak Design is generally my go-to when it comes to photography gear, and has been for several years now.

Peak Design launches Everyday Line V2 with updates and new products from $80

Peak Design is a fan-favorite just as much as it is a writer-favorite here at 9to5Toys. I’ve used their bags for years, taking them to CES, Israel, and everywhere in-between. The company just announced an updated Everyday Line V2 that packs multiple new designs and enhancements across the board. I’ve spent the last week or so with the brand-new Everyday Backpack V2 and Everyday Sling to bring you some first impressions, along with news on the rest of Peak Design’s Everyday Line updates.

I’ve finally found the perfect travel backpack, and it’s Peak Design’s Travel Line

Finding the perfect bag to take on a trip has never been an easy task for me. I want to carry my camera gear, clothes, toiletries, and my laptop too; along with all of the necessary cables and cords I’ll need for that trip. I’ve used several bags over the past few years, from the TYLT Energi to Peak Design’s Everyday Backpack 30L, Messenger Bag 15, and even the WaterField’s Air Porter.

Each serves a purpose unique to itself: the Messenger Bag 15 is great for carrying one camera body and a few lenses along with a laptop, the Everyday Backpack 30L is an awesome bag to carry tons of stuff, though it’s not super comfy. The Air Porter is an awesome laptop bag with plenty of room to carry other tech items, like my Switch. But, in the past, I’ve always had to carry multiple bags when going on a weekend vacation or convention. That all changed with the Peak Design Travel Backpack.

Peak Design’s new Travel Backpack is perfect in every way, but may be too large for most

Peak Design is well-known when it comes to photography bags. I have the Everyday Backpack and the Everyday Messenger personally, and carried the Backpack with me every day of CES 2018 while on the floor, in meetings, and traveling between buildings.

The Everyday Backpack I have is the 30L model and fits just about everything I need it to, though it gets quite heavy packed as full as I had it. Part of the reason was I had it overstuffed most of the time, and could really lay everything I needed with me on an average CES day out in that bag well. That’s where Peak Design’s latest Kickstarter for its new Travel Line comes in, bringing a bag that can hold up to 45L and organize everything you need in a much more convenient way.
