Question about North Face Base Camp Duffel
Can you tell me how to use the XS version as a duffel bag? No carrying strap and the sewn-in handles are too short to hold. If I see it correctly, it can only be used as a backpack...
Helpful answer
Correct, in the new versions (at least from 2017) the carrying straps are too short to use it as a duffle bag, it can only really be used as a backpack. You can of course also carry the "bag" around laboriously on the shoulder straps, but it's not very practical.
i have carried the xs duffel with me as a piece of hand luggage as well as a bag on city trips.
the harness is suitable for both normal carrying and backpacking.
So in the picture I see a shoulder strap and the handle type also says shoulder strap. Is this information incorrect?
When I looked at this model in a shop, the handles didn't seem too short.
