> The branding is not just the literal logo. The typical visual elements peculiar to Peak Design are present in the Amazon Basics version.

And? The Amazon Basics definitely is a knockoff of the Peak Design one but that's perfectly legal.

Unless a product is so similar to another, a customer would be mislead, it isn't counterfeiting. The Amazon one doesn't use the same zip, doesn't use the same flap, doesn't use the same strap, isn't the same color and prominently display the Amazon Basics branding. You can't confuse it for a Peak Design bag when buying. Therefore it isn't a counterfeit.
