      Comments about The North Face Base Camp Duffel - Medium:

      I'm female and little at that, and usually guilty of overpacking no matter how short the trip is supposed to be. The back-pack style shoulder straps make it so easy to carry that no matter how much I pack I can easily carry it. The 4 compression straps on the sides also make a significant difference in the size of the bag as well. And being a North Face product, I had to test it for its water resistance--wouldn't even know that it had ever gotten wet! Awesome bag all around. The main compartment zippers also have the ability to have a lock passed through them.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        I have a medium size and a x-large bag and they both work great! The zipper on the duffels are bomb proof. I use the Extra Large bag to hold all my gear when I go on multi-week backpacking trips out west. This is one bag that the airliners cannot break or rip!

          Comments about The North Face Base Camp Duffel - Medium:

          Good bag for more extended trips, that is, if you can't get by with a carryon. I took this with me for a 3 weeks trip in Namibia/Livingston/Bostwana plus a smaller backpack. Using packing cubes, I packed for the trip with room to spare (June/July weather). The backpack straps are good for 5-10 min, I wouldn't count on it for long treks.

          Comments about The North Face Base Camp Duffel - Medium:

          With most of us trying to get our gear as light and quick as possible the trade off is usually durability...and I can handle that. So when I take my gear off and it's out of my direct control it goes in this bag.

          I am an arborist and climb trees all day for work. Like all climbers I need my ropes and slings and such to be safe to keep me safe in the trees. Unfortunately, nobody but myself has that same awareness and concern. So I keep my gear in this. It's my black box for all of my climbing gear.

          And the large storage space with a small little inside pouch make this great for getting all your stuff inside. I just use some packing cubes to keep everything from swimming around inside.

            Comments about The North Face Base Camp Duffel - Medium:

            This is for the Large model, which meets airline baggage size restrictions. My son and I took a 2-week car-camp trip in the Northwest this summer. But we had to fly from our home in Hawaii with all our gear. We each took everything packed in a Large bag (total of 2), except for a cooler and campchairs we purchased on the mainland. I used the Pack-it Cubes for organization. Worked great. The backpack carry feature is very useful, and all straps snug up well for airline handling. These ARE bomb-proof. For the past 2 years these are our preferred method for scout camping logistics. Sturdy, waterproof, right-sized.
