You have your gym duffel, but it’s not really work-appropriate. Your laptop bag is great, but doesn’t fit much more than a few extra papers and a book. Your suitcase fits everything you need but is a bit much to wheel around for a simple weekend escape. Solution? The Essentials Duffel from WaterField Designs.
WaterField has breathed new life into the duffel bag. Quite literally: they have added lightweight foam inserts into a regular duffel construction so that it stands up without slouching. Yet it’s just as light as a regular duffel, fits as much stuff, and has pockets that are quick to access. This transforms it into a bag you can take to the office, to the gym after work, and nip off for a cheeky weekend away, all in one bag.
- Don’t worry about splashes or light rain on your trips, both the fabric and zipper are water-resistant
- It’s easy to locate what you need inside the bag, the gold lining almost lights up giving you easy access
- Pockets you can easily identify, that make it easy to fish things out without looking
- Versatile carry options – over the shoulder, held by a hand, or use the shoulder strap for a hands-free option
- The design helps to re-distribute weight and make it easier to carry
- High-quality materials throughout and quality construction mean this is a bag made to last for years
