Constructed from recycled materials, this unisex bag excels at keeping your gear dry and secure through rain and rough handling, though its structured, heavy-duty fabric can make it less compressible than traditional soft-sided luggage when storing it empty.

FAQs
Is the Base Camp Duffel waterproof?
It is highly weather-resistant and designed to protect gear from rain and snow, but it is not intended to be submerged in water.
Can I use this bag as a carry-on?
Yes, depending on the specific size variant you choose and the airline's carry-on dimensions, it is frequently used for travel.
What is the primary material used?
The bag is constructed using durable, recycled materials designed for high-performance outdoor use.
Does it have internal pockets?
The main focus is a spacious, open compartment, though some versions may include simple internal organization.
How should I store the duffel when not in use?
Store it in a cool, dry location. Because the material is rugged, it can be folded, but try to avoid sharp creases if stored for long durations.
Troubleshooting
Stiff or sticky zipper operation
Clean the zipper tracks with a soft brush to remove dust or grit and ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth.
Stains on the exterior material
Gently clean the affected area using lukewarm water and a soft sponge, then allow it to air dry in the shade.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your duffel, avoid dragging it over jagged rock surfaces unnecessarily, despite its high durability. When cleaning the exterior, use a damp cloth and mild, soap-free detergent to wipe away mud or salt; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the protective water-resistant coating. For storage, keep the bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. While the material is robust, ensure that the zippers are cleared of sand or debris periodically to maintain smooth operation.
