Great review and comparison….certainly helped me decide on the small version of the Base Camp Duffel.

Thank you for the in depth size comparisons

Will the water get through the zip when you use it as a backpack?

Thanks for the review! Really helps in picking out which bag will fit all my winter and trekking gear for the arctic

Awesome review! Very helpfull. Thanks a lot!

Love the trying on bits 😆 Um how do you carry it as duffel ....? Not as backpack. You mentioned the shoulder straps are detachable? Im interested in S.

Merci super vidéo !!

I've used the medium as one of my motocamping bags for years. When I give it a wash it looks like new after years of being tossed around on the bike, and in the woods.

I'm gonna get the XXL one for my diving gear. I have a huge backplate and wing setup, as well as a drysuit, undersuit, big fins. It just seems perfect for me.

Great video thankyou!

Awesome review! I have the XS and Medium. One thing I love about these travel duffels over others is there isn’t a lining on the inside so it’s much easier to clean out. Just my preference. The XS I’ve used several times for weekend trips and overnights and it’s incredible. I’ll be taking both sizes with me on a month long trip this summer.

I would love if they made an xxs edition, just something like 20 or even 15 Liters is really needed. Great comparison!

Thanks mate

Been looking for a bag for that specific hobby. The extra extra large for me it is. 😉👍

The colour on the medium??

Nice review! I'm wondering... for a 3-week trip (I need to take a sleeping bag - can't take that in carry-on luggage - and recommended max weight to take on the trip is 15 kg), which size would you suggest buying?

Wish they figured out how to add a shoulder strap to this somehow, keep the backpack straps of course

great video!

Nice review i like it a lot, i have two questions 1. does the side handle serves as a improvised luggae pastrough? and for a carry on the small is worth it? (i have a trip to japan in november i have a checked rolling luggage and a backpack for personal item)

My husband watched with me! He said one of the best reviews he's seen on KZfaq!!

Hi I've just bought a large duffle bag but it didn't come with any backpack straps does anyone know where I might be able to get some from.

Trying to decide between M or L, i'm going on a two week trip to Japan (checked in luggage) but would use it in winter for skiing as well, so it should fit a helmet and skiing clothes. Any advice on the size? ☺️

I have been looking into getting a duffle bag for the gym. Wasnt sure which size of the Nort Face basecamp duffle would suit the job. Thank you for this Video! Helped a lot ;D

I'm not sure whether to get the XS or S. Do you think the S would still be small enough to fit under an airline seat (provided it's not packed too full)? Wondering if I could take it as a 'personal item' with budget airlines like Ryanair, without paying extra for regular carry-on.

Such an awesome video! I am not sure whether the small or the medium. I am flying with American Airlines and I would love this bag as a backpack and not a carry on. Would you think that the medium would be accepted as a backpack or should I go with the small one? Like, would the medium fit under the seat in front of me?

What size do you recommend for a family of four?would like to utilize using 1 bag for 3 days 2 nights stay..😅

Can the XXL be used as a check in bag on a plane ?

Im going to Indonesia for 1 month. I’m 165 cm 😅what do you recommend, s or m? Thank you for the video

Hi is the XS size considered under the seat bag for flights?

Would you say the size “small” bag will pass as a personal bag on a plane?

Hey, how would you compare it with patagonia black hole duffel bag? Thanks for showing all the sizes!

what size would you recommend for daily use around town xs or small

Can a full size basketball fit in the small? I subbed btw nice vid, trying to decide on a duffle back back is tough lol

Just got one this year. I have a Large. Excellent size bag

The issue I see with the S size is the lack of shoulder sling and center handles (usually velcro'd together). If I am taking this as a carry-on and I've got my EDC backpack on, how the heck do i comfortably carry this through an airport???

See them on almost every train station here in the Netherlands 🇳🇱. People know what's up with this duffel.

no idea why they got ride of the duffle handles on the smaller bags, i have a few older ones that all have the og handles. super awkward to carry the ones that came after the switch.

Hey mate I was wondering what the name of your M bag is? The colour with blue and orange and green. I’ve been looking everywhere for it and can’t find any in aus. I’m desperate could you help me out please 🤚🤚

What size u recommend for a 11 days expedition trip?

Which bag size would you recommend for some who goes to the gym daily?

Which should I pick M or L is only 10 dollars difference

Gonna travel for 7 days, gonna buy L or M for a check in bag. But the large seems a bit too big to walk around comfortable on the back for longer walks. So leaning more to M, think M is big enough with a smaller carry on bag on the side ?

You can sign me up for that XXL just for that joke. LOL 💀

Would a Medium be considered ok for a carry on? Overhead lockers?

does the front and back handles work as luggage passthrough?

Mier makes very good duffels and are much cheaper than The North Face. I do have both TNF XS and 2 Mier duffels to compare.

Cant believe there's no trolley sleeve on the small or xsmall or medium tbh. Such a shame

Since the human body is mostly water and 1 litre of water is 1 kg, you should be able to carry normal sized bodies even in the smaller duffles than the XXL. If you compress me enough I should fit in the L as an average sized grown man.

XXL turned you to the 5th Ninja turtle.

Can’t believe Ed left already :(

I purchased size S for the purpose of carry on luggage for a 4 night trip. Here's my take. Pros: - Quality is made of durable material. Waterproof. Stitching and zips feel secure. I feel like this bag can last a life time. - Backpack design. As much as other people prefer the shoulder design, I find the backpack style easier on the back and shoulders. - Straps can be tightened, which makes the bag tad bit more compact - Price is relatively affordable compared to others - Can be flattened and stored Cons: - The backpack strap is wide, but not thick. There's not much padding on it either. However, you could purchase your own and replace it. - Lack of functionality. It is a duffel after all. Only one exterior pocket and one interior pocket. It's not a bag with multiple pockets to store your goods. If I needed to take something out, I would require a bit of effort unzipping the pockets. - It is a bit heavy (over 1kg) Overall, it's a great bag for what it is - a simple yet durable duffel. I used this as cheaper version carry on backpack as the alternatives I was eyeing were $300+ (Aer/Pakt/Peak). I would consider purchasing a more expensive backpack if you're planning on using it for camping/travelling/backpacking. In saying that, I wouldn't consider getting L/XL/XXL duffel version if you're planning on using it for that purpose. You're better off just getting an actual travel backpack, like the ones they sell at Kathmandu. This duffel is more suited for weekend/short trips . If you're unsure about which size to get for carry on, size S just fits carry on but on the larger side. I managed to fit under 7kg (carry on limit). Size medium or larger I would be VERY worried the airlines wouldn't accept it as carry on.

Great bags, I have 2 of these. Unfortunatly TNF has gonne full woke so I will not be buying more.

I plan on living out of a bag for about 3 months out of state with my family, which one should I get? I'm 5'7 if that matters
