Northface's duffel bags are pretty smart: They’re not only compact and robust, but large and strong enough to carry anything from your sports gear to luggage for a weekend trip. Here’s a quick guide to duffel bag sizes.

You don’t need several bags if you have an all-rounder. They might not reduce the weight you carry, but duffel bags offer smart and easy storage, ranging from XS to XXL. Available in a wide variety of colours, L-XXL versions offer plenty of storage space while the most popular sizes for your workout gear and weekend trips are XS-M. Here’s what each size of duffel bag is suitable for:

All duffel bags:

are foldable when empty
can be carried as a rucksack or as a bag
are made of water-resistant ballistic nylon
have a D-zip opening
come with padded side handles
have detachable, adjustable shoulder straps with ergonomic fit
feature four compression straps
have an exterior end-cap zippered compartment
