More about shipping to South Korea

The 45L model is especially popular because it hits that perfect middle ground. It is large enough for a multi-day trip in the Seoraksan National Park but streamlined enough to not feel like a massive trekking pack. Hikers in Australia and Korea have been snapping these up, but because of the massive global demand, local stock in Seoul is often overpriced or simply non-existent. Keeping an eye on us trends shows that the US market remains the most reliable place to actually find these bags in stock during the early 2026 launch phase.

Why US stores are the better choice right now

Shopping directly from US merchants like the Peak Design official store or REI often results in a lower base price than what you will find at local specialty shops in Korea. In 2026, launch pricing in the US is significantly more competitive, and you often get access to the full range of colors and accessories that might not be exported to the Asian market for several months.

The only hurdle is that many US retailers do not offer direct international shipping, or if they do, the costs are astronomical. This is why most gear enthusiasts use a parcel forwarding service. It allows you to shop like a local and take advantage of domestic US discounts.

The easiest way to get your bag delivered

If you want to avoid the headache of complex export paperwork, the best strategy is to use comGateway. By using a tax-free us address based in Oregon, you completely skip the US sales tax, which can save you an additional 7% to 10% right off the bat. This is the ultimate "lazy method" because the provider handles the logistics of getting the package from the US warehouse to your door in South Korea.

Once your backpack arrives at the warehouse, you can check the international shipping rates to decide which courier service fits your budget. If you are worried about the total cost, you can always estimate shipping cost before you even place your order at the US store.

Estimated shipping specs for the 45L backpack

Before you hit the buy button, it helps to know what the shipping profile looks like for a bag of this size. Based on the 2026 specifications for the Peak Design Outdoor Backpack 45L, here are the estimates you should use for your planning:

Local tips for South Korean buyers

Importing to South Korea is fairly straightforward as long as you have your Personal Customs Clearance Code (PCCC). For items coming from the US, the de minimis value is $200. This means if your total order (including US domestic shipping) is under $200, you won't pay import duties. However, the Peak Design Outdoor Backpack 45L usually retails above this price point in 2026.

Expect to pay around 10% VAT and potentially some duty when it arrives. Even with these costs, the total is often lower than the inflated local retail prices in Korea.

Troubleshooting and tips

If you have questions about how the storage period works or how to combine multiple orders from different US shops, the FAQ section on the package forwarding site is very helpful. They cover everything from insurance to how to handle returns if the bag isn't what you expected. Using a professional service makes international shipping feel as simple as a local delivery, which is exactly what you want when you are excited about new gear.
