High Coast 36L Duffle Bag

I bought this to use a carry on for my anniversary trip, as apparently my old crry on was "too big". I digress. It held more than I anticipated (use packing cubes, people) an the only addition I would recommend is a shoulder strap for if you don't want to use it as a backpack. I'll be traveling to Chicago in June for a long weekend and this will be my only bag so we shall see how it hold up then! But this was small enough for the carry on requirements for American Airlines and fit in the overhead bin perfectly

Bought this to replace an old haggard duffel bag that I had been using for the past 10 years, and it worked as intended. Good size duffle, used it for travelling in Europe to store all my clothes and toiletries. Perfect size, fits fantastically on public transit in overhead areas like on buses and fits into the overhead bins of planes, which was the reason I chose this size (36) to begin with. Plenty and secondary accessory pockets inside the main compartment. I find the backpack straps that can be tucked away a nice design and they are comfy enough. The structural integrity of the bag is that of a duffel bag so I wouldn’t use it as a general purpose backpack. Only issue I have with it that it doesn’t have a standard single sling for one shoulder use, which can be annoying if you have another backpack with you that you’d rather not carry in your hands. But I plan on fixing that issue with attaching my old strap to the end handles, hopefully it fixes my minor complaint.

I ordered this for my husband’s birthday, and in addition to him absolutely loving it, all the men in the family raved about it. As such, I’m ordering one for his father for his birthday. They could not get enough of this bag - biggest hit in a long time. Love this brand for myself, and it serves as a never fail endless supply of gift ideas for most anyone..JDC
