Customers are unhappy with the zipper quality of the duffel bag.

This bag is perfect size. If you can fit all your stuff into it with perfection then you will not have to pay the airport extra for taking this bag on the plane. I “stuffed” it into that airport metal thing multiple times before I got onto the plane. That was with a solid 2 days and nights worth of clothes and an extra pair of shoes in it. Anything more and it probably will not fit. I do “not” pay extra to take this bag on a plane. I’ve done it more than a handful of times. I will never want to take another bag to the airport that is not this size.

    This is one of my favorite products - because it is so clearly designed with the customer in mind.

    I use it for weekend trips and have used it as my default bag during a career in consulting for Monday-Thursday travel projects. This duffel fits in smaller overhead bins of regional jets that do not fit a rollerboard, which was a key selling point for me when considering it for business travel. The bag itself is sturdy, durable and stylish. One of the best features is the pocket for storing shoes separately. For weekend trips or business trips where I would like to exercise, this pocket allowed me to store my running shoes and workout clothes and socks separately from my dress clothes which were folded neatly inside the body of the duffel.

    Overall it's a great bag. I own one myself and have bought one for another family member as a gift when they began a career that involved short business travel.

    I use this as my “overnight” bag for work. I carry it almost every day. It’s made very well like everything else from Herschel. This bag gets tossed in and out of the trunk of my car on a near daily basis and it doesn’t have one blemish or tear in it.

    As for the space, I am able to keep a replacement uniform as well as day and night outfits for the next day and a cosmetics bag comfortably in the main compartment. If you are going to put shoes or boots in it, then you’ll have space for about 2 complete outfits rather than 3.

    The inside mesh pocket is a great place for chargers and a couple bottles of daily medication.
    The outside accessed lined pocket will work well for dirty laundry or shoes if you need it to, but obviously it’s going to diminish the available space inside the bag. I don’t use the lined pocket often.

    The handles and shoulder straps are well made and sturdy as is the main zipper. I have had this filled to the brim a few times and noticed the strong stitching in the zipper.

    I don’t regret this purchase one bit. In my opinion, most other duffle bags are smaller with poorer quality. Any bigger and this bag wouldn’t be so functional and easy to carry. It’s perfect.

    I'm already a fan of Herschel products. I own two backpacks, but wanted something I could use for travel. I was looking for a bag I could use as a carry on, but was small enough that I could also carry it with me during my travels without being weighed down. I purchased it right before a trip to the SF/Oakland area. I fit in a blazer or sweater for those chilly mornings by the bay, a tablet, some books, and a mobile charger for my devices. Everything fit great with plenty of room for anything I wished to purchase in my travels.

    The features are great. I love the separate shoe compartment, it saves me from having to wrap my shoes in plastic bags before packing. The camo is a great color and very stylish. The zipper and material seem to be of high quality and I can imagine this holding up under heavy use. My only complaint is that I wish there was a zippered bag on the inside for small items. There is a small compartment with a stretch lining that can hold some things, but moving around things can fall out.

    Overall, great bag for a good price.

    I love Herschel products. Admittedly, living in a car-based small city I don’t need a backpack often, but my first Herschel purchase was a backpack that I still use…ten years ago. So when I got the itch to do some more shopping in anticipation of some car travel, I immediately looked to Herschel for something that would work well for my small weekend jaunts. I was hoping to find something portable but roomy, and I certainly was not disappointed. I love the shoe space, which is spacious enough for two pairs of shoes…with my travel pair on my feet that means I have three pairs of shoes for any trips I take—more than enough! Being the child of divorce, I’ve mastered the art of packing tightly for the weekend, so I feel comfortable in saying that I can pack four days worth of clothes in this duffel, including cold weather and sleep clothes. That’s why I’m giving it a five star recommendation. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied with this item for years to come.

    I cannot say enough good things about this bag! I purchased this bag because I was going back and forth a few times a week from my house to my girlfriends house and needed a bag to take back and forth. I didn't want something with a ton of pockets or straps or anything. I was just in the market for a simple bag, and the simplicity of this bag is where it shines. There is no other way to describe it other than simple. I took the shoulder strap off and would just carry it around using the two handles. There is only one pocket the inside, which was all that I needed just for simple toiletry items. There is a pocket on the outside as well for shoes, which came in handy so that I didn't have to carry a pair of shoes separately on their own. Also, the build quality of the bag is exceptional, the material of the bag itself is a very nice rugged material that I'm sure can hold up to just about whatever you throw at it. The handles are of the highest quality as well and I feel like they will never wear down or break

    Overall, this is an amazing bag and I would recommend it to anybody looking for a nice simple duffle bag that is still of the highest quality.

    El color y la tela están increíbles, el cierre es invisible y de muy buena calidad, muy resistente! El compartimiento de zapatos tiene una minibolsa para guardar la tela que sobra cuando no lo usas, de esta manera se mantiene perfectamente ordenado el interior. Lo único que mejoraría esta maleta es si tuviera mas bolsitas o compartimientos interiores, pero es muy buena. Yo la uso en conjunto con organizadores de ropa para viaje y cabe todo lo que usaría en un viaje de tres o cuatro días!
