The North Face Base Camp Duffel

 Brand : The North Face
Item : TNF0625
The North Face Base Camp Duffel is an expedition classic. Constructed with fabric that will withstand a lifetime of abuse and alpine cut shoulder straps for comfortable carrying as a backpack. The Base Camp Duffel is a travel necessity whether your journey is to Everest or home for Thanksgiving. You might be afraid of gear disappearing in the monstrous capacity, up to 9070 cubic inches for the extra large, but two internal side pockets hold small items and the D-shaped zipper gives exceptional access to every corner. Daisy chains along the sides make it easy to tie the Base Camp Duffel to a car roof rack, camel, or yak. Four compression straps secure contents when your bag isn't totally full and expand to fit lots of souvenirs. You won't be able to bring back a Yeti from your Himalayan trek, we already tried, but everything else should fit. *Not Available for Shipment to Canada.

The North Face Base Camp Duffel



TNF
This bag is awesome, HUGE and well built. Keep your eyes pealed because every once and while they really drop the price. I have two, a large and extra-large, I use the large if I plan a local trip for 2-3 weeks and the extra-large when I travel abroad.


Superior Duffel
There simply is no comparison to the North Face Base Camp duffel. Having purchased the XL size all other bags are rendered redundant. Excellent quality and craftmanship as one would expect from the North Face. A raging bargain for the price. Excellent service from Backcountry.


Best bag of all time!
I absolutely love my North Face duffel. I bought the medium size and it is perfect: not too big and not too small. I am a college student and travel a lot so I use it all the time and have beat up on it pretty good and it still shows not sign of wear. Best $110 investment i have ever made!


Indestructable... not quite
I now have three of these bags - a small red, an XL black and yellow. They certainly look the business, each (even small) loaded to 50lb, do not appear to stress the seams / handles etc. Rucksack straps very useful, can actually carry two at once this way, one on each shoulder. Despite the rugged construction and appearance, the baggage handlers have still managed to beat up the two XL bags - one which has a small puncture on underneath (and multiple quite marked scuffs - after only two plane journeys)! I have two other 10 year plus in age, Eagle Creek cargo duffel bags which whilst not as cool to look at nor versatile to load, do not have any puncture marks etc... hence dropped point. The puncture wound to the underside of my black duffel, could be I think due to bag having been thrown / slammed down on corner of pointed surface? Still, I assume this has happened to my other Eagle Creek bags in their much longer life span. There is a plastic liner, which has meant the contents couldn't spill out, though it means somehow I'll have to attempt a repair.... possibly with some Gorilla Duct tape?


Bombproof
I now am the proud owner of two of these duffel bags. I bought the last one in 1999 and since then it has been on 5 continents, hauled through snow, mud and pouring rain. My friends borrow it all the time and I myself have used it on 30+ travels around the world without the fabric or the zippers ever giving up on me - It's still going strong.
