With Black Friday 2021, the classic shopping day not only in the U.S. but around the world, no longer limited to one day at the end of November but spanning several weeks now, we as shoppers have endless opportunities to spend our hard-earned cash. But where should we choose to spend our money? Well, we’ll try to separate chaff from wheat and list a few worthwhile deals instead of just everything that’s out there. Today we’re taking a look at Peak Design, a premium manufacturer of bags, tripods, and other nifty accessories for filmmakers on the go.
Peak Design has been around since 2010, and since then they’ve not only been launching quality products, they’ve also all been pretty innovative. The backbone of their success lies in a series of really successful Kickstarter campaigns, including the Everyday Messenger ($6,565,782 raised) and their travel tripod (a whopping $12,143,435 raised).
For the sake of transparency, I have to say that I own a Travel Backpack myself and I also have to say that I am 100% satisfied with it. It is simply a great backpack with many clever solutions and a lot of attention to detail. Of course, this is just my own opinion. So without further ado, let’s take a look at what Peak Design has on offer for Black Friday 2021.
Peak Design’s two biggest product lines are certainly the Everyday and Travel lines of bags. While the Everyday line is aimed more at casual customers looking for a reliable yet smart backpack, the Travel line is more for professional filmmakers looking for a customizable solution for hauling their gear around.
In addition, Peak Design has the so-called Travel Tripod (article here) on offer, a very unique tripod that is perfect for filmmakers on the go. Plus a whole bunch of other accessories and solutions tailored for photographers and filmmakers alike.
The video above is just too hilarious not to share with you, and I think it’s a well-deserved reminder that all those Black Friday deals shouldn’t be taken so seriously. In the end, it’s just about gear, right? If you need it, get it, if you don’t, don’t.
In a nutshell, Peak Design offers up to 30% off and their sale lasts from Nov 22nd – Nov 29th.
