The North Face Base Camp Duffel Bag (XX Large) is engineered for situations demanding high capacity, durability, and adaptability. Its 150-litre volume makes it an excellent choice for extended expeditions, adventure travel where bulky gear like climbing ropes, sleeping bags, or dive equipment is needed, or even for moving large amounts of personal belongings. The water-resistant recycled materials provide peace of mind in unpredictable weather, from mountain rain to dusty urban commutes.
Carrying Versatility: Transitioning from airport check-in to navigating busy streets is seamless. You can carry it by the padded side handles like a traditional duffel for short distances or quickly attach and adjust the ergonomic shoulder straps to wear it as a backpack, distributing the weight more evenly and freeing your hands. This is particularly useful when walking longer distances or on uneven terrain.
Organization & Access: The bag's design allows it to open right up, providing an unobstructed view of its contents, which is invaluable when searching for specific items. The zipped end-cap pocket is a standout feature for keeping dirty hiking boots or damp swimwear separate from clean clothes without consuming space in the main compartment. The internal mesh pocket helps organize smaller essentials like toiletries or electronics, preventing them from getting lost at the bottom of the vast main space. For overpackers or those with odd-shaped items, the four compression straps are crucial; they cinch down the load, stabilize contents, and can reduce the overall bulk of the bag when it's not completely full.
Attaching Shoulder Straps: Locate the detachable, adjustable ergonomic shoulder straps inside the bag. Clip them securely to the D-rings located at each corner of the bag's top panel. Adjust the strap length to ensure a comfortable and secure fit, allowing the bag's weight to rest primarily on your hips when worn as a backpack.
Utilizing Compression Straps: When packing, use the four compression straps located on the sides of the bag. Cinch them down to compress the load, preventing items from shifting and reducing the overall volume of the duffel, especially if it's not completely full.
This XX-Large (150L) duffel bag is designed for adult users and is Unisex. It is ideal for a wide range of uses from travellers and adventurers on long trips, expeditions, or gear-intensive activities, to anyone needing to transport a large volume of items. Its rugged construction makes it suitable for various environments. Due to its size, it will almost certainly exceed airline carry-on limits and must be checked as luggage. Always verify airline specific baggage dimensions and weight restrictions before travel.
Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe the exterior of the bag with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the material and coatings.
Drying: After cleaning or if the bag gets wet, ensure it is fully air-dried in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat. This prevents mildew and maintains material integrity.
Storage: When not in use, store the duffel bag in a cool, dry place, ideally unfilled and uncompressed, to maintain its shape and material longevity.
