Haul Gear Duffel 60L

The Gear Duffel is the one bag in the range that is built to be checked. Sixty litres, a U-shaped zip that opens the whole top, four grab handles so two people can lift it into a car, and stowable backpack straps for the walk from the carousel. An end pocket with a wipe-clean lining keeps wet or dirty things apart from the rest.

840-denier recycled nylon with a polyurethane coating on a TPU-laminated base, lockable water-resistant coil zippers, and compression straps that cinch a half-full bag down so it does not slop around in a trunk. 62 × 34 × 29 cm, 1.35 kg empty. No laptop sleeve, on purpose: this bag goes in the hold.

Questions

Can I check it? Yes, that is what it is for. Lock the main zips and use the compression straps so it travels as a tight bundle.

Does it fit in an overhead bin? No. At 62 cm long it is checked luggage on every carrier.

Does the wet pocket leak into the main bag? No. The end pocket has its own TPU lining and its own zip; damp swim kit stays there.

Ostler: ten-year warranty, one bag at a time.
