Poor Craftsmanship. Definitely wasted my money.
I've barely used this duffel and it's falling apart. The laminate is breaking from the outer material. At every natural fold is a hole. Great bag if you don't plan on using it. Definitely not durable or waterproof. It's an older design so hopefully the newer designs are better.
A bag for adventure
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this for both business trip for the practicality and looks as well as durability, very utilitarian if you watch what you stuff in it beside your back. Great bag!
Better than expected..
Some complaints about this bag is that it's missing two handle straps that allow you to carry the bag like a conventional duffel bag. I have both versions of this bag and loaded them up. I was expecting the newer bag to preform poorly, however, the side handle balances out the load better than when it had the two straps that went over the bag (sorry if this is confusing). If you're thinking about this bag, try to load it up in the store with the bags they use for backpacking backpacks. Overall, I really like the design of this bag. The removal of the handle straps makes the bag more streamlined and simple. I'm happy!
I am in the club!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My two brothers have North Face Duffle bags. One has had his for years for use on our motorcycle trips. The bag had been the envy of us all. Recently, another brother purchased one for our upcoming summer motorcycle trip. So, I had to have one. I purchased the hi-viz duffle to rest on the passenger seat as I ride. The bag lives up to all the hype. All my clothes and things can fit in the bag for a solid 6 days of traveling without having to wash anything. It is beautiful, sturdy, and exceptionally made. I love it. I hope to be able to get my wife and daughter their own bag one day. I am glad I am in the North Face Base Camp duffel bag club. You won't regret getting one.
Poor Quality
I bought this bag 10 days ago, took it on one flight, and it already has a rip in it! Poor quality! I bought it to easily carry around as I like the look of the bag and the idea of using it as a backpack in lieu of a shoulder strap for a duffel bag. It is just not made well. It gets scuffles and black marks easily and obviously the quality is not there if it cannot even make it through one US flight without ripping. Poor quality for a company like The North Face.
10 day travel bag
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best bag I have purchased, travel for work 10 days at a time. I took up my clothes for more room. Attached a hook on the bag to hold water bottle. I also can take it on hikes if needed .
A 15 year love
My father purchased this bag for me about 15 years ago after we traveled somewhere our hard-sided, traditional luggage could not fit in the trunk of the cab. This duffel has been my trusty travel companion. We have been on every mode of transport--planes, trains, cabs, tuk tuks, buses, boats etc... The bag is durable and sized appropriately for all types of travel. It fits in nearly all overhead bins and stows away without taking up much space when not in use. The duffel style allows for easy access while the backpack straps make it easy to carry. The vibrant yellow color makes the bag easy to identify. I love this bag. I hope to get another 15 years out of it.
Best duffel bag I have ever bought
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a emergency medical technician and was call out to the wild fires out in California. I traveled all the way from nyc to fersno California with my duffel bag with all my personal equipment and work equipment. This bag kept up with me in all kinds of weather and taurine. I was in the mountains and sleeping out doors and everything was secured at all times. This bag is by far one of my best investment and looking foward to taking it with me in many more rescue missions.
Awesome Product
I got this bag to backpack with, when I say backpack I mean like from the train to the hotel, not to have on my back for hours upon hours. It is awesome. It is really light and the main compartment is really roomy, I fit a weeks worth of clothes and my snowboard, camera and climbing gear in it with no problem, the synch straps on the outside are awesome for a water bottle attachment and really easy to store a tripod as well. The only problem I have really found is the straps on top make it hard to open the bag when it is full but with a little patience it is not bad, just adjust them to be bigger first. The bag has also proven to be waterproof and a little bit flame resistant, please don't ask how. I will probably be using for at least 10 years. Totally worth the investment.
Very Good bag that used to be better
My favourite feature of the base camp duffels has been that iI can use the compression straps to secure the bags down to cargo racks on a bicycle porteur rack or motorcycle rear rack without needing to carry extra straps. The lopsided new design doesn't centre the weight right. The bags are durable and do a good job of keeping your stuff dry. I did a 17,000km road trip across Canada and everything stayed dry despite highway speeds in numerous torrential downpours crossing Ontario. The only time I've had one let in water was when the bag wasn't full (of gear) and water pooled on top of a low spot and water seeped in through the zipper. I now put my sleeping bag in a thin dry bag and squeeze the air out with my weight and close it up to keep it compact and dry when packed - compressed and dry without compression straps. Oh, then use the dry bag semi-full wrapped with a fleece pullover inside-out as a pillow at night.
