FAQs
What is the capacity of the Base Camp Duffel XS?
The Base Camp Duffel XS has a capacity of 31 liters.
Can this duffel be used as a carry-on?
With dimensions of 46 x 28 x 28 cm, it generally meets carry-on requirements, but it's best to confirm with your specific airline.
How do I attach the shoulder straps?
The shoulder straps attach to the D-rings located on the top corners of the duffel bag. They are removable and adjustable.
Is the bag completely waterproof?
The bag is water-resistant due to its fabric and DWR finish, and features a weather-resistant flap over the D-zip opening. However, it is not fully waterproof and should not be submerged.
What material is the duffel made from?
The main body is made of 1000D polyester with a phthalate-free PVC coating, and the boot is made of 840D ballistic nylon with a non-PFC durable water-repellent finish.
How should I clean the duffel bag?
Clean the exterior and interior with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use mild soap and water, rinse, and air dry completely. Avoid machine washing.
Does it come with a storage bag?
Yes, it includes a mesh bag for storage and transport.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to close or open
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of wax or a zipper lubricant to the teeth for smoother operation.
Shoulder straps are uncomfortable or uneven
Ensure the straps are attached correctly to the D-rings. Adjust the length of both straps evenly using the buckle adjusters for a balanced fit.
Bag is not holding its shape
Ensure the main compartment is adequately packed. The duffel is designed to conform to its contents, but overloading or underpacking can affect its structure. Utilize the external compression straps to stabilize the load.
Exterior fabric has lost water repellency
Clean the fabric gently according to care instructions. Once dry, apply a PFC-free durable water-repellent (DWR) spray suitable for synthetic fabrics to restore its protective properties.
