Customer Reviews The North Face Base Camp Duffel - Small

It stores everything I need

I commute to work on a bike with this bag on my back across the Willamette river. I pack my own lunch and snacks, work uniform, shoes, extra warm cloths, and in down pouring rain this bag keeps everything dry. After 7 years of daily use it finally started to leak water so I sent it back and the warranty department sent me a new one. This bag is a must carry for a guy like me who is out in the elements all the time but still needs to keep stuff dry.

I've had my duffel bag since the beginning of this year, 2019 and I've been traveling a lot for the whole year. I've been using this duffel bag more often especially on my short trips and it doesn't disappoint. I like the style, the simplicity and the durability. There is enough room for my stuffs and daily OOTDs. I love their idea of making the duffel bag a back pack since the back is hurting from carrying bags on one side of my shoulder. I bought another one for my cousin who loves to travel too and he loves it.

Great bag I had bought the Large size in the Black for a longer trip (I did check the bag) and loved it so so much. As someone who almost never travels with less than two bags I was shocked that all of my things fit into just the one bag. So when I needed a bag for a shorter stay and wanted something that was carry on compliant I decided to purchase the size Small. It arrived today and it looks just a reliable as the larger version. The quality of these bags are incredible and I have no doubt I'll have it for years to come. It's got ALOT of room and it's easy to add a shoulder strap from another duffel to create another carrying option. I'm super excited to use it... just a note about the color ... I purchased the Hero Purple and the color is great BUT it is just worth noting that the North Face logo on the side is not black as pictured but is instead a bright almost neon orange. Honestly, the color combination is great so I have no complaints. Really happy with BOTH of my purchases.

Just what the doctor ordered...multi purpose do everything carryall!

Traveling without checking my bag.

I mainly use this bag as my daily hauler on my bike to work. The shoulder straps are really great and comfortable under load. I'm able to put my clothes for the day, laptop, bike related stuff, like the lock, tools, etc and still have space to spare. I put the bag on my front rack and the material holds up great to the dirt, wet and grime no problem, keeping my stuff clean and dry. The loops and handles make is quick to lock down on the rack as well, great fit.

I purchased this luggage for my trip to Atlanta. It was able to fit 5 pairs of size 15 shoes along with fall outerwear clothes

I use this for traveling and it is the perfect size for vacations! Definitely would buy again!

I use this bag to pack my lunch, tools, gym gear and spare clothes. This bag really blew me away with its amazing quality and design. To be honest north face has some elite bag enginuity. I own so many northface products such as the bigshot,borealis, recon, vault and jester and still have all of them. These back packs will last like forever. And I'm really glad I got this compact duffle bag to add to my collection. It has handles everywhere and is super tactical and practical. Love this bag so much. I think I'll buy another one during christmas for my father.

This is my third base camp duffel, as I needed a smaller one for overnight trips. This bag is bulletproof just like its big brothers. The material is water-resistant & very durable, and the highlighter orange color helps it stand out at the baggage claim.

Looks like a solid quality product, what I expect from North Face. Size is good for short trips.

I bought this to be able to take with me on the plane when I'm out for the weekend and not having to pay for a carry-on. Very cute - stylish and practical.

Used as a traveling bag. Perfect size and made of durable material.

Traveling out of the country for the first time in a couple months. I wanted to make sure I got something that would hold every little thing I would need on this trip! This bag will do just that!

Incredible bag, great storage capacity, zippers are tough and rugged, compartments inside are nice, backpack straps for carrying are adjustable and handle load well. Overall very satisfied with this bag as it's intention will be to go sailing for long trips and the bag is sure to get wet, but the waterproof material is great.

I had one that lasted 11 years and quite frankly, it's still good, I just wanted a new color.

Any size of these duffel bags you purchase you will not regret! The newly updated design makes carrying this bag a breeze - new carry handles and straps. The high quality durable material makes travelling with this pack a breeze, no worries about airport travel or wear and tear. Would HIGHLY reccomend to anyone who needs a great gear bag..plus with all the unique color combos it is easy to spot!

This product works great for travel and the gym. I'd buy it again.

This is such a useful bag whether it varies from an overnight bag to a friend's or a light carry-on.

Any size, color or price! You will not be disappointed with these duffels!

Great bag does everything you want it to do and hold. Do prefer the older style without those big carry straps/handles and wish the xl had the external zipper side pocket like the medium and large...

I love the base camp duffel series. They are made of extremely durable material. Great for heavy duty gear, or traveling with clothes, toiletries, etc. Long lasting solid bag.

I love these Duffels having a xs and xxl, I purchase this one just for the handles and in summit gold!

I fly to each island in the chain every other month and I throw my work boots, work gear, laptop, documents, extra cloths (depending on weather), and hard hat in the bag. It easily fits in the overhead bins. The shoulder straps allow for easy traveling through the airports. I am confident using this bag in any weather. I am surprised at how much the 50L bag will hold. Excellent bag for work. I also use the bag for person trips camping, hiking, and skiing. It was my gear bag in my last trip to Lake Tahoe. This year it held 2 helmets, 2 goggles, 2 pairs of gloves, 1 ski jacket, 3 base layers, ski pants, 2 wool socks, a dopp kit, and a couple of t-shirts. Next year, if I buy the ski boots, I'll have to go with the Medium.
