Frequently Asked Questions
How small does the Peak Design Packable Shopping Tote pack down to?

With a 12-liter capacity and reinforced construction, it handles a full grocery run or farmers market haul. The padded strap helps distribute weight across your shoulder.
Is the Sage color a neutral tone?
Yes, Sage is a muted green-gray that pairs well with most outfits and gear without standing out.
How much does it weigh when empty?
Just 80 grams (2.82 oz), so it adds virtually no weight to your everyday carry.
