Product Information

Full details

The North Face Base Camp Duffel Bag in medium size is designed for adventurers and travelers seeking a durable, versatile, and spacious gear carrier. Its key win is its robust, water-resistant construction combined with flexible carrying options, making it ideal for everything from expeditions to weekend getaways. A minor caveat is its size, which, while great for capacity, means it's generally too large for airline carry-on regulations.

FAQs

What is the capacity of this duffel bag?

This is the medium-sized Base Camp Duffel, which has a generous capacity of 71 liters.

Is the duffel bag fully waterproof?

The duffel is made from water-resistant ballistic nylon and TPE fabric laminate, and features a weather-resistant zipper flap. While highly protective against rain and splashes, it is not designed to be submerged in water.

Can I carry this duffel bag as a backpack?

Yes, it comes with detachable, adjustable, and ergonomic alpine-cut shoulder straps that allow you to comfortably wear it as a backpack.

What are its dimensions and weight?

The dimensions are 35.5cm x 64.5cm x 35.5cm, and its average weight is 1590g (approximately 3.5 lbs).

Is this duffel suitable for airline carry-on?

Due to its dimensions (64.5cm length), this medium-sized duffel is generally too large to be used as an airline carry-on bag and will need to be checked.

How should I clean my Base Camp Duffel?

We recommend wiping down the exterior and interior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry thoroughly; do not machine wash or tumble dry.

Does it have a special pocket for dirty items?

Yes, it features a zipped end-cap pocket specifically designed for separating dirty shoes or wet clothes from your main gear.

What material is the duffel made from?

It is constructed from 1000D phthalate-free TPE fabric laminate and 840D Jr. ballistic nylon for rugged durability and water resistance.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Clean any visible dirt or sand from the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like beeswax or a dedicated zipper wax) to the teeth and gently work the zipper back and forth until it moves smoothly.

Bag feels uncomfortable when worn as a backpack, especially on longer walks.

Ensure the shoulder straps are correctly attached and adjusted for your height and build. Try to distribute the weight evenly within the bag, placing heavier items closer to your back. For very long distances or heavy loads, consider using it primarily as a duffel with the side handles, or transferring the load to a dedicated hiking backpack.

I can't seem to fit all my gear, or the bag feels too bulky.

Utilize the four external compression straps to cinch down the load. Pack strategically, rolling clothes tightly and using smaller internal organization pockets efficiently. Re-evaluate your packing list to remove non-essential items if space is still an issue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Attaching Shoulder Straps: Locate the detachable shoulder straps. Attach the bottom clips to the D-rings located at the base of the duffel, and the top clips to the D-rings near the main zipper opening. Ensure they are securely fastened.
Adjusting Shoulder Straps: Once attached, put on the duffel as a backpack. Adjust the strap length using the buckles until the bag sits comfortably on your back, distributing weight evenly.
Using Compression Straps: To compress your load, pull the four external compression straps taut. This will reduce the bag's volume and stabilize its contents.

Compatibility

This medium-sized duffel is compatible with a wide range of travel needs:

Adventure Travel: Ideal for expeditions, camping, hiking trips, and outdoor sports where durability and capacity are paramount.
Road Trips: Easily fits into car trunks or roof racks, with its rugged exterior handling various conditions.
Checked Luggage: Suitable for airline travel as a checked bag; its tough construction withstands rough handling.
Gear Storage: Excellent for storing seasonal gear like ski boots, climbing ropes, or diving equipment at home.

Care

To ensure the longevity of your Base Camp Duffel Bag:

Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior and interior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive brushes, which can damage the fabric's protective coating. Air dry thoroughly; do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Zipper Maintenance: Periodically clean zippers of dirt or debris. A silicone-based zipper lubricant can help maintain smooth operation.
Storage: Store the duffel in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Use the included zip mesh storage bag to keep it tidy and protected.
