Special features of the duffel bag

◆ 3WAY: handheld, shoulder, backpack
Duffle bag NO.3 BACKPACK looks like an ordinary duffel bag at first glance, but there is a backpack shoulder hidden on the bottom, making it a duffel bag that can also be used as a backpack. Large size allows plenty of storage.

◆ High durability and can withstand harsh environments
The main fabric is resistant to tearing and abrasion, and is also highly water resistant.
This fabric is called CORDURA 1000 material, and is not only highly water resistant due to its urethane coating, but also has a water-repellent finish on the outside that repels rain and dirt. It's sturdy enough to be dropped on the ground or rocky surface, but the fabric is soft enough to be comfortable to carry.

◆ You can quickly see the entire contents
One of the main features of this bag is the U-shaped opening.
Typical duffel bags often have straight openings, but larger duffel bags can be a little inconvenient as they may close automatically while you're looking for something, or items you want to take out may get caught. If the bag is U-shaped like this one, you can clearly see inside, making it easy to take out your belongings, and loading and unloading your belongings is also smooth. This ease of use clearly shows the technology and commitment of the brand, which has continued to develop specializing in duffel bags since its founding.

◆ Rust-resistant, tear-resistant, and designed for everyday use
The metal parts are nickel-plated so they won't rust even when wet, easy to maintain, and safe even on rainy days. Furthermore, the straps and reinforcing side webbing are made of seatbelt material, making them durable and won't tear easily.
The bag's seams are also well thought out, with all seams double-stitched and taped, and the handles cross-stitched and box-stitched to maximize durability.

◆ Reliable size that can be carried on board
It has a handle on the side, making it easy to lift and pull out. It is especially easy to handle in baggage storage areas on Shinkansen trains and airplanes.

Duffel bag that won't break even if you cross Antarctica

BEST AMERICAN DUFFLE was founded in Seattle, USA in 1989, commonly known as BAD BAG. The founder, Malolm Vetterlein, was involved in the development of GORE-TEX, which is famous as an indispensable material for outdoor products. In 1990, Gore-Tex became the official supplier to Will Steger, a famous American explorer and expedition leader, during his sponsored crossing of Antarctica, which was a spectacular success. BAD BAG's bag was recognized as a durable duffel bag that survived crossing Antarctica at minus 50 degrees and blizzards for nearly seven months.
Due to its durability, it is used by fire departments and police departments in the United States, and its high quality has received approval from various places. While many American bag manufacturers are shifting to Asian production, this brand continues to produce mainly in Seattle to revitalize the local industry.
