About this deal
For everything from a carry-on to an expedition workhorse, this is one of the most popular duffels on the market year after year. First, rarely do roller duffels come with anything more than carry handles (read: no backpack straps), making them difficult to transport in areas without sufficient rolling surfaces.
We’ve all been there: clumsily dragging our bag across the airport lobby and cursing ourselves for not purchasing something with wheels (or a travel backpack).With a smaller opening, access to the contents is more limited, and especially when full (this means more rummaging and disorganization). Whether you’re headed to the beach, tailgating before your favorite sporting event, or camping in the wild, there's a good chance you'll want to keep your food and drinks cold. It won't be particularly heavy (maybe 18kg max) but I have some bulky things and I'm over 6 foot so the size isn't an issue.
When available, we’ve included the denier rating of each bag in our handy comparison table above, which range from 1000-denier for a bag like The North Face Base Camp down to 300-denier for the Backcountry All Around.
Implemented with large capacities and premium technologies, they are designed for durability and storage of all the essentials while maintaining stability and control. These models often cover their durable ripstop fabric with a laminate that keeps moisture from soaking in (often a DWR treatment or something similar). Second, cheaper or ultralight duffels have a tendency to fall over when full, which is something to be aware of when making a purchase (heavier models like the Osprey Sojourn Shuttle do not fall over, which makes them worth the extra cost in our opinion). You get a handy internal compression system that can secure all or some of your load, along with four small zip pockets (two internal, two external).
