Peak Design, a San Francisco-based manufacturer known for camera equipment, has unveiled its new City Line of bags, which feature an innovative built-in hook system called BagLev. The integrated hooks allow users to hang their bags from chairs, tables, counters, and ledges, keeping them elevated and protected from ground-level dirt and contamination commonly found in urban environments like subway stations and outdoor venues.
The City Line includes two primary options: a 12-liter crossbody bag priced at $119.95 and a 15-liter backpack available for $179.95. Both are constructed from lightweight, water-resistant Mono Shell 660D fabric and incorporate several practical design elements, including large-grip zippers, magnetic closures on quick-access pockets, and integrated spaces for tracking devices. The crossbody bag offers a compact solution for casual exploration, while the backpack provides additional space and laptop protection for work purposes.
Beyond the signature BagLev hook, the bags appeal to everyday users seeking durable, versatile carry options that work in both casual and professional settings. The water-resistant fabric sheds moisture effectively, and any dirt that accumulates can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth. While Peak Design traditionally focuses on camera gear, the City Line represents an expansion into general urban carry solutions, making these bags suitable for commuters and remote workers who prioritize functionality and design aesthetics.
