Peak Design "City Line"

People adapt. Bags should too.

City Line was created for everyday life in the city. Its minimal, noise-free exterior and carefully calculated storage structure keep belongings organized without stress, while a rounded silhouette and matte texture lend it a quiet, understated elegance.

The goal was to help people organize their belongings smartly and move through the city lightly and freely, with a harmony so seamless that the bag itself fades into the background. The collection was designed to move at the city's pace and fit beautifully into the rhythm of everyday life.

City Line Product Features


BagLev Hook System

The bag features a uniquely developed, anodized aluminum hook that tucks smartly away inside the bag when not in use.

Hooking the bag onto a table or similar surface while out keeps it off the floor and clean, while also keeping belongings close at hand.

Applicable models: City Crescent (6L/12L), City Tote 15L, City Backpack (15L/22L)

Magnet System for Smooth Access

Magnets hidden inside the bag allow the opening to open and close smoothly, giving smart, secure access to frequently used items such as a smartphone or keys.

Hidden AirTag Pocket for Peace of Mind

Every model includes a hidden pocket where an anti-loss tracker, such as an AirTag, can be stored out of sight. This lets users always keep track of their bag's location, providing extra peace of mind while out and about or on the move.

Materials


100% Recycled Nylon (bluesign-Certified)

The bags use 100% recycled nylon that has received bluesign certification throughout.

bluesign certification is an international standard for the textile and apparel industry that certifies sustainable products and supply chains with consideration for people, the environment, and resources.

MonoShell 660D Fabric

The exterior uses a 660-denier fabric known for excellent weather resistance, combined with a soft, matte texture and a premium feel. It is bluesign-certified 100% recycled nylon.

Anodized Aluminum Parts

The BagLev hook and the dedicated strap use anodized aluminum parts that enhance durability and functional beauty.

PFAS-Free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) Coating

A PFAS-free coating limits the use of chemicals that affect the environment while still achieving excellent water resistance.

City Line is available at Peak Design Tokyo (Ginza) and other City Line retailers, including online shops.

City Sling 2L

Colors: Black, Moon, Cypress

Gin-Ichi Online Shop

A streamlined daily sling designed for light travel and a minimal set of belongings.

With its clean, noise-free look, lightness, and understated but reliable functionality, it blends into any outfit without breaking the silhouette and keeps essentials smartly within reach.

A Beautiful Form Regardless of How Much You're Carrying

The divider is intentionally left un-fixed, letting the internal structure flex with the amount of items carried, so the bag keeps its refined silhouette even on days with fewer belongings.

Smart Access to Your Smartphone

A magnetic pocket on the back (fits up to an iPhone Pro Max) holds a smartphone and other valuables securely while allowing smooth, frequent access.

In-Transit Charging Without Disrupting the Minimal Look

A cable pass-through connects the main compartment to the magnetic access pocket inside the bag, so a portable battery can stay inside while the cable is routed through, keeping the exterior tidy even while charging.

Quick One-Touch Removal, Even Over a Jacket

A slim, understated side-release clip lets the bag be removed quickly and intuitively with one hand, even while wearing a jacket or coat.

Elegant Key Organization on the Go

A key tether inside the internal stretch pocket keeps keys from getting buried at the bottom of the bag or lost, so they can be retrieved instantly while out.

About Peak Design

In 2010, Peak Design successfully raised funding on Kickstarter in the United States, instantly making its name known across the world's photography industry.

Its first product, Capture, was a groundbreaking solution created by founder Peter Dering to resolve his own frustrations with outdoor photography. Backed by funding from people around the world who shared the same frustration, Capture went into production, and it continues to be loved by outdoor photographers and others worldwide through repeated version upgrades. Peak Design has since released camera straps and camera bags known for their quality and clever ideas, as well as the innovative Travel Tripod, which pursues both design and function, earning many fans through its development capability and attention to detail.

Continuing to innovate as it aims higher, Peak Design has expanded into a variety of fields, constantly broadening its world.
