Pros & Cons
Pros
The material is very durable and you can tell it is very well made/stitched throughout and waterproof.
If completely full, it's oversized for carry on, but i've taken it on several weekend trips when its loosely full and carried it onto the plane. It fits in my tesla model 3 frunk. Pair each - sandals and sneakers.
The main compartment has a divider that you can use or not, depending on your packing style. The internal divider isn't terribly functional, but at least it tucks away neatly. There is a new divider in the main pocket, but the other features we loved ... Read More
This is not a true hiking backpack but it makes taking a large-ish bag to and from airports and hotels a snap, all while keeping hands free. I am happy that it is in my arsenal. It handles everything i need to carry for 2 week trip, like that it's wat... Read More
The backpack straps combine to double as a carry strap. Eagle creek's are the next best type of compression straps.
Cons
Top and sides are highly water resistant, yet the bottom gets soaked. Not standing water, just slight dampness. Clearly it’s a defected bag and they are not offering an exchange.
Highlights
Quality
It feels like a quality product and water resistant.
Zippers seem robust and straps are well thought and strong with solid attachment and hardware.
The fabric material holds up to running water for 15 minutes and does not soak through.
The material has changed from a heavier duty fabric material to a combo plastic and fabric material which wasn’t evident in the photos.
Price
Also more expensive unless you can find a great deal such as amazon warehouse.
I truly could not recommend this bag more for any trip, worth every penny!
Shipping
Shipped fast and is exactly as described.
In fact, get on their mailing list because they have some great direct-to-consumer sales.
Packaging/appearance
Lots of packing, unpacking, carrying in and out of small inns, and stuffing into the trunk of a small car.
They were able to fit everything they needed in this bag plus more (they over packed) and use as a carry-on.
Packability: these bags all advertise as "packable.
" some like the eagle creek fold into self-contained pouches, and others come with carry bags; but the "packable" claim is mostly a joke.
Competitiveness
The fabric material is not excessively stiff and is easy to handle, unlike some competitors.
Also no zipper loops and inferior warranty support vs the eagle creek or osprey.
0 70l, columbia on the go 75l, cotapaxi allpa duo 70l, plus some cheaper, simpler bags from gonex, rei, and eagle creek (i told... Read More
With that in mind, i compared many bags including the patagonia black hole 70l, rei big haul 60, the north face base camp voyag... Read More

The bottom of the duffel appears to be a different nonwaterproof material but it is just an extra layer of protection for abrasion
