When you need to throw all your gear into one place, there’s nothing simpler than a duffel bag. At their most basic, duffel bags are glorified stuff sacks, but today’s models also come with smaller storage pockets, waterproof and ripstop fabrics, comfortable carrying handles, and locking zippers—some even have built-in wheels to save your shoulders. Sizes typically range from 30 liters to 60 liters and up (such as the 95-liter North Face duffel bag below), which provides storage volume for a variety of packing scenarios.
