STANSPORT - Deluxe Duffel Bag With Zipper For Gym, Travel, & Storage

This duffel worked out great for me. I bought the 42" X 25" version to hold my backpacking gear so I could ship it as checked baggage on an airline. It held my backpack the Kelty Red Cloud 110, one of the largest packs made, two sleeping bags in compression sacks, two self inflating air mattresses, two self inflating pillows, a three person backpacking tent, stove, fuel bottle (new & unused of course).With all my gear stuffed in this inexpensive canvas bag.....I had one checked bag, there were no straps from my gear dangling and begging to get caught on airport luggage transport machinery, and the inexpensive canvas bag took all the abuse rather than some very expensive gear.This bag was exactly what I hoped it would be. I couldn't be happier.EDIT 5/30/2017: I just bought 2 more of these duffel bags. Same purpose as initially. I bought my 2 sons backpacking gear so these duffel bags serve as the protection when flying with our gear. But even close to home when I'm driving to a trail, I've started keeping everything in the duffel bags. That way everything is in one place and ready to go. All I have to do is grab one, two, or three duffel bags and throw them in the car. When we get to the trail head, all the equipment comes out and I just toss the duffel bags in the back of my SUV along with any equipment we don't want for that trip.These have worked out perfectly. I don't need them to look great. In fact, I like that they don't draw attention. I don't need them to be waterproof. I don't need them to be lightweight. I just need them to hold a lot of expensive gear and take the abuse of transport. And that they do very well.For those of you having trouble with the stated size, it's pretty obvious (after buying one) that the original stated 42" X 25" was a length and a circumference. It looks like since I bought my original, they have changed the listing to 42" X 15" which is the length and the diameter. They both describe the same thing, a cylinder 42 inches long with a 7.5 inch radius and 25 inch circumference. (D/2) = Radius . Pi X Radius squared = Area. Then Area X Length = Volume. In this case 176.71 X 42 = 7,422 cu in or 121.6 liters.My 110 liter pack fits easily but I don't have the pack loaded out to its full 110 liter capacity as I take the 3 person tent, bear cannister, sleeping bag, and air mattress and put them in the duffel loose. That fills the space and allows the pack to fit with the zipper closed.

Pros:Spacious & Roomy: This bag has a great capacity, making it ideal for carrying large amounts of gear. It can hold everything from camping equipment to travel essentials or gym gear, and the extra space is a definite advantage for extended trips.Heavy-Duty Construction: Made from tough, durable materials, it’s built to withstand rough handling. The reinforced stitching and high-quality zippers ensure that it holds up well over time, even when fully packed.Zippered Design: The heavy-duty zipper is sturdy and runs smoothly, providing easy access to all of your belongings while ensuring they stay securely packed inside.Multi-Use: The versatility of the bag makes it a go-to choice for multiple occasions. Whether you’re using it for camping, travel, or storage, its adaptability shines.Con:No Internal Organization: The bag is a simple, open compartment, which can make organizing smaller items challenging. If you like pockets and dividers, you’ll need to pack additional pouches or organizers to keep things in place.

Doesn't come with a strap, but it's fine to move with the handles.This thing is ridiculously long, but definitely holds a lot. Very sturdy, would buy more.

I got this bag to carry a somewhat heavy 26" tall drum. Djembe bags of this size are not all that common and kind of expensive. They usually have internal padding and sometimes large pockets on the outside...with a price to match.The bag is longer than I need, but large towels wadded up at the top and bottom will take up the empty space and provide some padding.The fabric feels pretty sturdy although it isn't as heavy as the seabags I used to find in army/navy surplus stores. The centered carrying handle looks as if it is well stitched and will stay on without tearing even with a heavy load—likewise, the handles at each end.One reviewer was concerned about whether the bag's D-rings for a shoulder strap are attached well enough. I also wonder this, but won't know for a while.The dual zippers seem to be of good quality and the metal pulls are long enough. The length of the zipper opening is just shy of 30 inches.The photo attached to the review shows the drum (with d.i.y. EVA foam wrap) inside the bag. You can see the stitching for the central handle and the D-rings.I think it's well-made and is a good buy. Four stars for now because I can't be sure yet how long it will hold up (it will be carrying a pretty heavy load, after all).

A sturdy old fashion duffle bag with heavy zipper and canvas handles . I use to store my fake christmas tree in . Handles make it easy to pull off top garage shelf. Very pleased. Reminds me of hubbies old military bag from the 1970s but clean, LOL !! I would buy again and recommend. Would hold multiple blankets or alot of clothes, kids toys etc.

What a bargain! Quality duffle at a reasonable price!
