Is there room for improvement on the humble duffel? According to Peak Design, there is.

Although to be fair, we’re pretty sure the folks over at Peak Design will never be satisfied with any travel or photography gear—including their own. They’ve become a favorite amongst photographers and travelers alike with their unique, functional, and highly-innovative gear which includes everything from camera straps to messenger bags to tripods and full-blown travel packs. If there’s any brand we’d trust with taking the humble duffel into the 21st (or 22nd, or 23rd) century, it’s Peak Design.

Which brings us to the 35-liter Travel Duffel. This is one of two Travel Duffels available from Peak Design, the other being the 65-liter Travel Duffelpack, which is more of a duffel-backpack-hybrid. In this review, we’re focusing only on the 35-liter Travel Duffel.

Peak Design Travel Duffel in Detroit

We’ve been putting this duffel to the test over the past two weeks, so let’s jump right in and see if it truly is the duffel of the future.

Materials & Aesthetic

At the time of this review, the Peak Design Travel Duffel comes in two colors: Black and Sage Green. While we would normally opt for black here at Pack Hacker—especially to match the Peak Design Travel Backpack we recently reviewed—we wanted to switch it up this time and go with the Sage Green.

This option comes with leather accents, which are located on the handles and tags. These accents nicely complement the Sage Green look, which we think actually looks like more of a heathered gray/heathered green. And just to note, the Black version has Hypalon accents instead of leather, meaning it is totally free of animal products.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Leather Accents

The main fabric on this bag is a 400D Heathered Nylon Canvas, which pulls everything together nicely and feels very robust. This is the same material we’ve seen on the Everyday Backpack , which has held up well for us in testing. The only difference is that, in this case, it’s made with 100% recycled materials. Overall, we really like the look of this bag (and our Instagram audience did, too).

From a branding perspective, there are several Peak Design and “PD” logos found on the duffel, and we think they’re all quite tasteful—nothing too loud.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Logos

Peak Design has gone for a #10 Zoom zipper for the main compartment, which comes with some nice weather resistance, and then YKK zippers throughout the rest of the duffel. There was a bit of controversy on our Peak Design Travel Backpack review over the use of a large Zoom zipper compared to YKK for the main zipper, but for a duffel, we’re less concerned about this choice. If it does fail, it’s still mostly operational (which, of course, isn’t the case on a clamshell backpack).

Peak Design Travel Duffel Zippers

There is also a 900D liner with a rubbery feel at the bottom of the bag, which adds some durability for when you set the bag down or toss it around. And you may have noticed by now that there is some metal on this thing—all of the strap attachment point have aluminum buckles on them, which we’ll get into later. We always love to see metal in favor of plastic, and we think this is a nice touch from Peak Design that adds to the high-quality feel of this duffel.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Bottom Material

Finally, there is some Hypalon in a few places throughout the bag—not as much as on the black version, but it’s included on the touchpoints to add a somewhat rubbery feel and help you grip the attachment points more easily.

External Components

A key feature of the Peak Design Travel Duffel is that it has four different carry styles to choose from. Yes, you read that right— four.

As you might suspect, some work better than others. Starting with the hand carry, this simply involves putting the two straps together and attaching them with a magnet. The magnets aren’t the strongest ever, but your hand will be holding the straps together most of the time so it’s not a huge deal. This is a pretty functional way to carry the bag, and the magnets do make the process of lashing those straps together a bit easier.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Hand Carry

Another option is the sling carry, which uses the shoulder strap. This strap is attached to the nylon loops on either side of the duffel, using those aluminum buckles we mentioned earlier. With this carry mode, you’ll want to keep the straps a little looser, as you want to sling it across your body.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Duffel Carry

The shoulder carry is basically the same thing as the sling carry, but you’re just popping the strap onto one shoulder instead of over your body. You’ll probably want to tighten the strap a bit more than you would in sling mode, so the bag carries higher on your body.

While you’re in either sling or shoulder carry mode, you can easily take the other straps off and stow them away. It did take us some time to get the hang of this, but the more we used the duffel, the easier it became.

The aluminum buckles on the straps—which are really more of a large hook than a buckle—allow you to quickly and easily attach the straps to the various attachment points on the bag. At first, we were a bit skeptical seeing as these straps kind of just “hook” onto the attachment points, but they actually do stay put quite nicely thanks to a large divot in the aluminum that prevents them from detaching on their own.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Attachment Point

The backpack mode can be accessed by adjusting the straps so they’re anchored on the attachment points furthest towards the top and bottom of the bag. There are also some magnets on either end of the duffel that allow you to fold in the corners of the bag, which make for a more streamlined look and feel when in backpack mode or carry mode. It also means that you won’t have the top corner of the duffel rubbing against your neck, which is always good.

Now, we’re not going to sugarcoat it—the backpack mode is not an ideal way to carry this duffel. The straps aren’t very comfortable, but it works in a pinch if you need to cover a short distance and your hands are full.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Backpack Carry

One interesting note about this bag is that there’s no real “top,” and the logo follows suit—it looks the same whether it’s worn upside down or right side up in backpack mode, which is nice. That means you can carry it whichever way you want, depending on how your gear is oriented inside. These are the types of small details that we think really set Peak Design apart from other companies—the magnets, logos, aluminum buckles, and Hypalon touchpoints really come together to create a unique and highly-functional carry system.

We’ll also point out that the 65-liter version of this duffel seems to offer a more robust backpack strap system. We’re assuming that Peak Design decided against more robust backpack straps with this version since it’s not quite as necessary at 35 liters.

As we mentioned above, we do think the first three carry modes work best for this duffel. We don’t love the backpack mode quite as much, and we think that’s okay. This is primarily a duffel bag, after all, and it works well…as a duffel bag! It is nice to have the option of converting to backpack mode in specific situations, but we didn’t find ourselves using it all that much.

We also like that the shoulder strap offers a nice amount of padding and that the padding goes pretty far across the strap. This is a clear improvement over what we’ve seen in some other shoulder straps in the past.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Side Folded

Overall, we did find the magnets throughout the bag to be slightly weak—not only those on the carry handles, but the ones on the side flaps as well. When this duffel gets really full, sometimes those side-flap magnets can come undone by accident. It’s not a deal-breaker by any means, just something we noticed in testing. A little more security would have been helpful here.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Magnets

And lastly, there are two solid grab handles on either end of the duffel that are streamlined and barely noticeable when not in use. They’re nicely padded and offer a quick way to grab this duffel from whatever angle you may need.

Inside the Pack

The great thing about duffels is that they usually open up to one massive compartment, and the Peak Design Travel Duffel is no exception.

It’s at this time that we’d usually give our packing cubes PSA , although with the Travel Duffel we do have one clarification to make. This bag is optimized for Peak Design’s packing tools and can fit three “units” of tools in them, meaning those specific cubes will fit perfectly in here and utilize the full space. If you have those cubes, great. If not, you’ll be fine with whatever cubes you do have—you’ll just need to do some tinkering to get everything to fit correctly.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Main Compartment

Inside the main compartment, that giant bucket space does have some zippered pockets on the side. These feature Peak Design’s rubbery mesh, allowing you to see what’s inside while still keeping things secure.

We like that this bag has locking zippers, letting you have a locked-up and completely secure duffel that won’t unzip easily. There’s also a bit of rigidity on the side of the zippers in the main compartment, which helps the bag keep its shape.

Moving on to the side pockets, there are two larger horseshoe-style pockets on each side which have aluminum stays to help them keep their shape. The zippers can be locked down in this area, too, if you want to secure the side pockets.

The first pocket on the side opens up to reveal three rubbery mesh pockets. During our testing, we used these pockets for a passport, a small pair of ROAV sunglasses , and an Anker battery bank . Extra space is available for stuffing a jacket inside or for other free-floating items.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Side Pocket with Three Sleeves

In the front of this section, there is another zippered pocket which is pretty large and has no additional organization inside.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Side Pocket Outer Pocket

Flipping it around to the other side, the second horseshoe pocket has those rubbery mesh pockets again, except this side just has two divisions inside.

This side also has a small nylon loop, which could be used to attach a keychain or some additional Peak Design accessories. A luggage ID is also found in this area, though we don’t think this is exactly the best place for a luggage ID as it’s not in an obvious location.

Testing and Durability

At the time of this review, we’ve been testing the Peak Design 35-liter Travel Duffel over the course of two weeks in Detroit and Chicago. Overall, we’re digging the simplistic style and multiple carry options offered on this bag.

Peak Design Travel Duffel In Detroit

It’s a solid “so far, so good” on the aesthetic and durability fronts and we haven’t noticed any wear-and-tear issues so far. The bottom is marked up a bit, of course, but that’s to be expected since it’s been tossed around in cars and trains. Other than that, it’s holding up very well and we have no durability concerns at this point.

Peak Design Travel Duffel in Detroit

We think this duffel could be a great companion to a larger one-bag travel backpack. And while duffels tend to fall short when it comes to carrying things like laptops, the Peak Design Travel Duffel does offer some solid organization and just the right amount of balance for holding everything you want while still having a couple organized areas. It won’t handle a laptop very well, though, to be clear.

Usage Timeline

Condition: Excellent

  • Cord loop system allows it to be carried as a duffel, messenger bag, and backpack
  • Magnetic components all over this duffel keep it low profile no matter which way it is carried
  • Almost no internal organization, works well with Peak Design packing cubes

Magnets can be weak at times and the backpack carry isn’t ideal.

An Ultimate Peak Design Travel Duffel Review (65L & 35L): Perfect for Nomads, Slow Travelers, and Collapsible Storage

When wandering, nomading, and traveling around the world, picking the right luggage can be tough. Backpacks are a comfortable and convenient choice world travel and adventures, perfect when you’re moving frequently and need luggage that is convenient to carry.

But for trips wherein you’re moving less, need more space, and need a more convenient packing approach – whether that is a week vacation at a single spot in Paris, or nomads on the road for months or years based in a single location for weeks at a time.  The Peak Design Travel Duffel is that more convenient approach to packing for travel.

Peak Design Travel Duffel 35L and 65L

Though I loved traveling around the world with only a carry on backpack, I’ve discovered that using a big duffel bag for nomading, and carrying a daypack that doubles as a weekend travel bag is a perfect approach for travelers that have more gear than can fit in a 45 liter backpack, aren’t moving much, and want a more convenient packing option than travel backpacks.

The Peak Design Travel Duffel has proven to be an extremely well designed and well constructed travel duffel, available in the convenient sizes of 35L and 65L, making it a carry option I highly recommend as “expansion storage” (the 35L) or a great main bag for nomads, large enough to comfortably fit their mobile lives (65L) all in an easy enough to carry package.

Read on to discover why the Peak Design Travel Duffel is a perfect setup for vacations and nomads traveling with their lives in a bag.

My Experience Traveling with the Peak Design Travel Duffel: Perfect for Digital Nomads and Long Term travelers, with lots of gear and time in one place

I’ve spent the last 5 years exploring the world in some state of travel – whether in a state of full travel backpacking hitting a country a week with only a carry on backpack, or as a nomad basing in a single city to work (and enjoy) and enjoy for periods while taking short adventures (and a smaller bag) on shorter trips.

For most backpackers, I highly recommend “one bagging” for world travel, carrying a single travel backpack of 45 liters or less that can fit on a plane , to avoid baggage fees, avoid having your checked bags lost in transit (it has happened to me), and discover how much more enjoyable life can be with less. Even if long term travelers aiming to bounce around the world and stack up countries don’t travel with a carry on, a travel backpack is more convenient to carry, for moving quickly, comfortably, and easily through airports, transiting frequently with your luggage, and being ready for the occasionally hiking and trekking adventure.

Why a Duffel Bag is a great option for travel for slow travelers, nomads, and anyone not moving weekly

Not everyone has the flexibility to travel so lightly that all of their belongings fit into a carry on backpack. Additionally, if you don’t need the convenience of how a comfortable backpack carry, then there are massive benefits to choosing a more open, yet weel designed, style of luggage.

In reality, if you are not traveling quickly, and moving accommodation more than once per week or two, and are unlikely to take all of your luggage on a trekking trip, then a good duffel bag, with the addition of a good daypack sized travel pack (like the Peak Design everyday carry sized travel backpack ) is likely a far better travel setup than a backpack.

Adding packing cubes to a duffel bag takes a huge, convenient space, that is easier to access than top loading backpacks, and functionally feels much like a dresser with drawers that you can carry over your shoulder, or backpack style for short periods.

peak design travel duffel 35l black

For digital Nomads , a good duffel bag offers much more space, perfectly appropriate for the additional tech that digital nomads and remote workers carry. Personally, when I am in “digital nomad mode,” the laptop, extra chargers, hard drives, microphones, headphones, and small odds and ends contribute so much to my work that I can’t leave them, but nearly take up a backpack all their own – meaning more space is essential to stay productive and travel comfortably as a nomad. Because, when in my “work phases” I move less often, the benefits of extra space (in a duffel bag) outweigh the benefits of how a backpack is carried.

For long term travelers and Round the World Travelers, choosing a travel friendly duffel allows room for the extra clothes clothing for all climates and occasions (think Bali summers, Patagonian winters, and European fall) and equipment for all adventures (think about your favorite puffy jacket, a very useful sleeping bag, or your favorite retro 35mm camera) that make round the world travel slightly more comfortable and efficient.

To be honest, yes, you could “rent” a sleeping bag in Patagonia, or skip the 35mm camera, but in my experience traveling adventurously – think Laos, Sri Lanka, and Bolivia – the more adventurously you travel, the harder those high quality, niche items will be to find when you’re on the road. After 5 years on the road, I’ve decided it’s much better to take everything you’ll need to be self-reliant on the adventure than arrive and struggle to find that one thing you need.

The moral: You can take something with you and ditch it later, but you can’t find that something if its nowhere around. Going the duffel bag route gives the flexibility to make that choice.

Plus, you can always leave the duffel bag behind on your adventures.

The best adventures when traveling happen on “loops.” Think, traveling the coffee circuit in Colombia, hiking Torres del Paine National Park in Patagonia, or trekking to Everest Base Camp and Back. This means that you can always leave the larger bag and take a backpack traveling light for your adventures.

This is exactly what I did when I hiked to Everest Base Camp on my own, through Patagonia, and during my first trip in Bali. The first hostels I stayed at were welcoming and happily held my larger bags for me, for a few weeks until I returned.

So, you know that a good duffel bag is actually a great option for travel if you need to carry a little extra gear and won’t be moving as often, but what should you look for in a duffel bag?

More on My experience with the Peak Design Travel Duffel

I’ve taken the duffel on a handful of week long trips with my girlfriend wherein we’ve actually split the bag, using packing cubes, allowing us to travel with a single bag – and it has been great.

Our most recent trip to the cool highlands of Bali to a cabin workcation surrounded by volcanoes was the most trying trip and convinced me this is a great bag.

peak design travel duffel 35l black

The trip happened all via motorbike, and the size of this bag, plus haul points and durability made it easy to strap to my motorbike, carrying all of the gear we both needed.

peak design travel duffel 35l black

Not only did the bag handle all of the gear for two people for a week in the cold, but we traveled with the bag strapped to the back of a scooter and had the rain pour on us for an hour of the adventure. Now, sad to say, after an entire hour riding in the rain with the bag completely exposed, a few drops got in and got a couple pair of socks wet. However , I am still very impressed.

peak design travel duffel 35l black

The outer cloth absorbed absolutely no water and the water that did get in made it through a zipper corner. I tested the bag later and covering the top zipper with a trash bag would have kept everything dry.

peak design travel duffel 35l black

The functional design (haul points for strapping things down) made it easy to load. Quickly removable handles made carrying the backpack easy for the short periods – to the cabin here, and from ferries to our hotel through the islands.

The simple organization and pockets made quick access items accessible inside and out.

This bag is well constructed and built for life. I have overstuffed it, dropped it, and strapped it down abusively and it is showing no signs of wear.

What makes the Peak Design Duffel Bags great travel duffel options

  • Backpack Mode Carry: A double shoulder carry option makes quick transport – through airports, briefly through streets, and on trains – simple and easy via removable padded top handles that double as backpack straps (for full backpack straps, consider the Peak Design Duffle Pack )
  • Comfortable shoulder strap for easy cross-body carry and shoulder carry: Having a removable padded shoulder strap is essential, because you should be able to carry the pack hands free, easily, whenever necessary
  • Removable top hand straps straps allow convenient hand carry for easy carry while wearing a backpack
  • Just big enough for your needs, but not too big: Peak Designs 35L and 65L variants are two great options that will suit the “larger luggage” and “smaller luggage” needs.
  • Water Resistant outer material throughout , with weatherproof 600D nylon canvas shell upper and completely waterproof 900D nylon bottom
  • Tough materials throughout
  • Sturdy yet lightly padded handles with woven nylon straps capable of handling heavier loads
  • Internal pockets for organization and quick access without packing cubes
  • External pockets for quick access to frequently used items

Now a duffel bag can be a great option for most travelers, however, it depends on the bag’s size and how you use it. Luckily, this duffel from Peak Design comes in two perfect sizes 35L and 65L which are respectively great for using as expandable luggage and a weekender bag (for faster paced travelers) or as primary luggage with a backpack on the side.

Let’s dissect the two options.

Peak Design Travel Duffel 35L Variant: Perfect for daily use, weekend trips, and to pair with a travel backpack

The Peak Design Travel Duffel 35l variant is the smaller option that is the perfect addition to a good travel backpack, such as the Peak Design travel backpack , or one of my other favorite carry on travel backpacks . Before I discovered the Peak Design’s smaller duffel bag I traveled with the 32L GORUCK Kit Bag quite the same way as expandable luggage I’d use with my GORUCK GR3 and leave behind on treks and shorter adventures.

The 35L is solid as “expandable luggage” that can be taken on as a carry on for your personal item (or “laptop bag”) in addition to a carry on backpack if you plan the sizes correctly.

Also, when not traveling around the world, this bag’s size, carry, and just the right amount of pockets for storing everyday use items in an organized way make it a great gym bag and perfect for weekend trips when paired with a functional daypack .

If you’re a digital nomad wandering and still want the function of a good travel backpack for long term travel and the extra storage for all of your comforts, air this 35L duffel with a good long term travel friendly backpack .

Peak Design Travel Duffel 65L Variant: A great primary bag to leave at your base for slower, travelers and nomads

If you plan to stay in one place for weeks at a time and occasionally take shorter trips out and then back to your base, the 65 liter Peak Design Duffel will be much better for you.

This bag packs the same durable build, water resistance, organization, and function of the smaller version, but in a package large enough to fit your entire nomadic life.

On my most recent trips, my girlfriend and I actually shared this bag. We simply carried our own laptops in separate daypacks, and both packed enough gear for a whole week in this bag, in an organized way using awesome Peak Design Packing Cubes . This trip was also into cold highlands of Bali, in an area called Bedugul surrounded by volcanoes, and where the weather got down to 60 to 65 degrees (~16 to 19 celsius) in a nearly off grid cabin – so we had to pack warm clothes, portable chargers, books, snacks, and nearly the kitchen sink. It all fit easily in an organized way.

The result was insanely convenient. I’ve decided that for nomading, I will definitely take the Peak Design 65L duffel as my “big bag” and bring a smaller bag for side adventures

Pros of the Peak Design Duffel vs. Other Bags

  • Intuitive design, with pockets, haul points, and handles in all of the right places
  • High quality and durable materials
  • Stylish accents
  • Perfect size for the intended use – not too big, not too small
  • Buy it for life build

Cons of the Peak Design Duffel vs. Other Bags

  • Leather-wrapped webbing handles, which can be used for backpack carry, would become uncomfortable on a long walk (consider the Peak Design Duffle Pack , with full backpack straps and padded hip belt)
  • I wish the bag had two padded shoulder straps for backpack carry
  • You will need to cover the top zipper if leaving the bag in the rain, as the bag’s design does route rainwater to the zipper’s corners

Quick Rating of the Peak Design Travel Duffel

  • Function: 5/5 – Small details and great design make this a very useful and useable bag
  • Travel Readiness: 5/5 – For long term travelers with lots of gear, the organization, size, carry options, and durability make this a great hauler for slower, longer travel
  • Durability and Quality: 5/5 – With excellent materials and construction throughout, the bag feels solid and like it will last a lifetime
  • Price and Value: 4/5 – Not cheap, but worth every penny, this bag is an investment and good value

Overall Rating: 4.75/5

Quick Verdict

For travelers that carry a little extra on their travels, whether nomads carrying lots of tech, or multi-climate adventurers with lots of gear, the Peak Design Travel Duffel is an excellent option for making your travels better and more convenient. Quality, intuitive design and function, and performance make this a bag worth its price tag and that will enhance how comfortably you travel.

Travel Friendliness + Comfort and Carry

Carry-on Compliance: Both the 35L and 65L duffels can be carry ons, if underpacked enough

With the standard carryon limit for most airlines being 22″ x 14″ x 9″, the 35L Peak Design Travel Duffel dimensions 22″ x 14″ x 10” make it a feasible option as a carryon when full packed, but you may need to under pack lightly to get that extra inch.

However, with dimensions of 30″ x 13.4″ x 12.6″, the 65L travel duffel will need to be very underpacked to function as a carry on.

However, both duffles are soft-sided and do not have any rigged frame, thus, could be used as carry on bags for any airline if under packed enough

The aesthetic on this duffle are simultaneously minimalist and timeless. Due to the leather and metal accents, subtle earth tones, and timeless, wear resistant materials (webbing, heathered patterned woven nylon), this bag is quite muted and stylish in an understated sense.

Due to its all around minimalist design, the aesthetic is almost timeless, and could very easily pass for a bag from 40 years ago or (possibly) 40 years from now, looking good in any time.

Thanks to that minimalist, function focused design and intentionally using high quality materials, Peak Design created a great looking bag that will still be regarded as a good looking bag a long time down the road.

Materials, Craftsmanship, and Durability

Everything on this bag, from the webbing in the straps, to the metal zipper pulls, to the thick fabric and hooks, feels very sturdy to the touch – in general quality and how its all stitched together. Additionally, using the bag under heavy weight, there is zero give in the stitching.

The materials and the craftsmanship level applied in assembling the bag add up to what I feel is heavy durability and a lifetime of potential use with minimal issues.

Though at $170, this bag isn’t cheap, and you’ll find plenty of cheaper options, I still believe it is a good worthwhile value.

The materials, construction, and overall quality make it a “buy it for life” purchase that you won’t have to replace anytime in the near future, and that will be a single purchase that fills plenty of needs.

For nomads and long term travelers, this bag will serve you extensively, and you’re better off knowing it won’t fall apart mid journey. Buy cheap…buy twice.

At $170, with the quality and function you get, this bag is still a good value

If you are a nomad carrying more than would fit in a normal travel backpack and need something bigger, convenient, and still more functional than roller luggage for adventure, I highly recommend the 65L Peak Design travel Duffel .

If you are a dedicated backpacker but need a small duffel for overflow storage, I highly recommend picking up the 35L peak Design Travel Duffel .

Shop @ Peak Design

This is my second review of a bag by Peak Designs. And I’m just as impressed with the Travel Duffel, as I was with the Travel Backpack. This thing is a simple, classic duffel bag, that’s well designed, and made with great materials. With a HUGE interior compartment.

Materials, Colors, and Size

420 Denier Treated with Water-Resistant DWR

The materials on the duffel are identical to the travel backpack . The Main fabric is a thick 400 denier nylon treated with DWR (Durable Water Repellant). Giving it a rough, plasticy feel, and making it water resistant, but not completely water-proof. The bottom fabric is a much thicker 900 denier, treated  with a much thicker waterproofing material.

The Travel Duffel comes in Heather Green, like I have here, or a classic black color if you want something more low-key. I opted for the green, I think it gives the bag a lot of personality without being over the top,

Zippers and Hardware

Peak Design Travel Duffel 35L Review Large Zips

For the zippers on the exterior they use a large #10 and #8 waterproof zippers from a company called ZOOM . They’re well-made with all metal construction and custom pull tabs. They may or may not be as good as YKK brand zips, but I tend to trust Peak Designs in terms of quality. Considering the attention to detail, and quality materials they use, for every piece of hardware on this bag.

Aluminum and Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon Hooks

The rest of the hardware is way better than you see in most travel bags. The hooks on the carry handles are custom aluminum, with fiberglass reinforced nylon hooks for the shoulder strap. The fiberglass hooks aren’t as strong as the metal ones, but PD claims they work better with the adjustable nylon shoulder strap. I think they should have just gone all aluminum to avoid possible breakage issues.

Leather Carry Handles (Black Version is Vegan)

The green version here, has leather carry straps and accent tabs. If you want a vegan option, the black version of the duffel doesn’t use any leather.

Another interesting feature is a aluminum rod that runs along the side on either end of the bag. This helps the bag keep its form, so it doesn’t collapse in on itself.

Security System

Security System Lock Main Zip Using Attached Pulls

The security on this bag is minimal. You can lock the main zippers together with the rubber pull-tab. Unclip it from one side, run it through the ring, and attach it back to itself. Or you can use a standard TSA flex lock .

The side pockets can be secured, by attaching the two side zipper pulls together with a lock. Or a fabric loop sews near the top zipper pull.  

Custom PD Zipper Pull Toggle (It's Kind of a Pain)

There is a classic Peak Design locking mechanism on the side zip. You feed the zipper pull down through a hole in the pocket, and attach it over a plastic toggle on the inside of the bag. It technically works, but in practice, I found this to be so difficult and time consuming that it’s not even worth it.

Use a Mini Carabiner to Lock Side Zips Instead

A better solution to the toggle lock is to use these mini carabiners. The Micro lock by Nite-Ize are a fantastic quick-clip option I use all the time for additional security. It has two clips, and turn the center lever to lock it into place.

These come in a bunch of colors and work great for bags like this. You can leave one end attached to the loop, and then just clip the other end and lock it into place.

Size & Dimensions on Peak Design Travel Duffel

Carry On Dimensions If Not Overpacked

Like all bags I review on this channel, the dimensions of the Peak Design Travel Duffel are carry on friendly for most airlines ( Airline carry on size chart ). With a length of 22”, width of 14” and a height of 10.

This material on this bag stiff, and the aluminum bar securing the carry handles help keep the bags form. The height of 10” is slightly large, but the bag squishes down easily from the top, as long as it’s not over-packed too much.

External Components

The external components on the Peak Design Travel Duffel consist of a cross-body shoulder strap, and top handle carry, which are both detachable, as well as several side pockets.

Two Small End Slash Pockets

Each side has a large organizational compartment, and a slash pocket. The slash pockets are pretty large, and don’t have any further interior pockets.

Larger Side Pockets With Further Organization

The large side compartments are mostly the same. One side has 2 rubber mesh dividers, and a hidden luggage tag pocket. While the other side has 3 rubber mesh dividers.

Side Pockets on Peak Design Travel Duffel Don't Have Much Volume

These compartments stick out a few inches from the bag. But how much you can fit in here really depends on what you have in the main compartment.

You can easily fit quite a bit in here with the bag empty. But once you start packing the inside your capacity is greatly reduced.

Carry Options

Carry Handles Are Soft But Not Very Padded

The shoulder strap on the Peak Design Travel Duffel is an 1 and 3/4 nylon seat belt style strap, that tapers down to a leather carry handle. The handles are soft, but there isn’t much padding. To make carrying easier the handles connect together with a magnet. But in practice, I found the magnets aren’t really strong enough to hold the handles together.

Carry Handles Convert To Shoulder Straps

The shoulder strap is also a thin nylon strap, slightly thinner than the carry handles at about 1 ¼” thick. The padding is similar to the straps on the Travel Backpack, decently long and wide, but they could use slightly more padding to increase the carry comfort.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Carry Comfort

Carry With Hooks Cliped to End Loops on Peak Design Travel Duffel

There are a few ways to carry this bag which require you to move the attachment points on the shoulder strap and the top handles. To carry with the shoulder strap, you unclip the aluminum hooks on the top carry handles , which I found the be really tight.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Side Carry

And then you have a few options to configure the strap for the shoulder carry. You can attach it at the ends and carry it like a normal duffel. Adjust the strap using these two adjustors on the end. The padding on the strap actually stays nicely in place because Its attached to the strap.

Turning the Straps Makes the Peak Design Travel Duffel Carry More Comfortable

The bag can be a little blocky on your hip this way. You can also move the shoulder straps to attach offset on the side loops. Or, I found the most comfortable way to carry the bag is to just attach them both on the same side.

Backpack Carry

Carry Handles Clip To End Loops for Backpack Carry

You’re going to need to attach the top carry handles to wear the Peak Design Travel Duffel as a backpack. You remove the shoulder strap and attach the top carry handles to the fabric loops on the end of the bag, and to one loop on the side.

Wearing Peak Design Duffel as A Backpack

This technically works to carry the bag, and it might work in a pinch. But it’s really not very comfortable. The straps aren’t adjustable, and they barely have any padding. I don’t have much weight in the bag in the picture, and the straps are already digging into my shoulders. It’s really just not comfortable.

Interior Components and Design

Large Long Opening Top Zipper Into Main Compartment of Peak Design Travel Duffel

The main draw on this bag, is the huge interior compartment. The bag opens from the top with one long zipper running the length of the duffel.

The interior is pretty simple. With only 2 small zippered rubber mesh pockets, and a couple fabric hooks for attaching camera cubes, if you use the bag for photography gear.

Bag Fully Packed With Compression Cubes

The Travel Duffel is designed to store Peak Designs packing cubes . But similar to the Travel Backpack, I found that this set of much less expensive set of 3 Gonex packing cubes also work great for packing this bag.

Summary of Peak Design Travel Duffel

My favorite things about the Peak Design Travel Duffel is the materials and design. They keep the tradition of the classic duffel bag style by focusing the bag around a large-volume main compartment but updated with modern materials. While at the same time, still provide good organization, with minimally distracting exterior and interior pockets.

  • Materials and design
  • Huge interior compartment
  • Great, minimally distracting organization

My main critique on this bag is the carry system. With a bag as large as this, especially one that’s designed to hold heavy camera equipment, you really need a comfortable carry system. I like that the padding on the shoulder strap stays in place, but it could be wider, and the padding really needs to be much thicker.

The leather carry handles look great (black color has vegan option). But they’re firm, not very thick, and don’t have much padding. And the carry handles just don’t work as backpack straps. It’s not enough to attach fabric loops to the end of the bag and claim you can now carry the bag as a backpack.

They really need to modify the design on the straps or provide a different strap that works better for backpack carry, like they have for camera carry.

  • Backpack straps don’t work well to carry bag
  • Magnets on handles and side flap aren’t very strong
  • Cross-shoulder strap padding should be thicker

Fantastic travel bag

What a perfect bag. It is the usual PD quality with some many features that reek of high quality design; whenever I get a new PD product it's always an adventure to discover all those special features, and always worth a YouTube watch. Excellent quality, excellent design, pefect size.

#1 Go to Bag!

This bag I had for 2 years before using the warranty on it (which was also tremendously easy and helpful). I use this bag as my daily commuting bag in NYC and hold essentially my life from change of clothes, laptop, groceries bags, anything and everything! Also really good weekend getaways and need an easy carry on for my travels. I dont think i'll ever want another duffle, if anything i might get the bigger one too lol

March 4, 2024

Found it - so close to perfect duffle

The 35L travel duffle combines eye catching form and with strong functionality. Sleek, durable and beautifully designed. A wrap for the handles to offset the flimsy magnets would make it a 10.0!!

Great roadtrip bag

I've only used this bag for one road trip, so this is not a super detailed review. But it was excellent. Fits a lot inside while still looking compact and elegant on the outside. And the materials and sewing are very high quality. The shape is a little different compared to other duffel bags, which helps when packing and unpacking, and makes it more spacious inside. With packing cubes it becomes even easier to fit more and more items inside. I'm using packing cubes from a different brand that I already own, but I'd imagine Peak Design packing cubes would maximize the carrying capacity. My minor complaint is that the two handles don't attach to each other very strongly. The magnets are not strong enough. I know Peak Design knows how to make good magnets because I use their phone case, so I'm not sure why they're using weaker magnets on this duffel. This only applies when using the handles to carry the bag in one hand for 10+ minutes while it's packed heavy. Most people will use the shoulder strap in this situation anyway. Another thing to consider is storage of this bag when not using it. A lot of competing duffel bags can be folded into a pocket for compact storage. This bag does not fold into a pocket, but it can be folded down flat. If you live in a tiny apartment and are planning to use this bag for occasional travel and store it while not using it, you'll probably have to store this bag flat above your wardrobe or someplace like that. It may fit into a large suitcase when flat. All in all, I highly recommend this produc

February 23, 2024

Well made travel duffel

Bought the 35L as an overseas flight bag when we want to avoid checking in luggage. Great option that works well with a combination of packing cubes and camera gear. As noted in other reviews, the magnets intended to keep the handles together are ineffective, but this is a minor issue for me.

February 17, 2024

Great bag and warranty

Quality bag and great function. Also they replaced it when one of the loops tore.

February 6, 2024

Awesome bag!

I was first iffy about the size of the bag and the strap clips. But after seeing it in person and using for a month, it’s definitely the perfect bag!

February 4, 2024

Amazing bag!

This is the best duffel bag I have ever purchased. The only thing I would change is the carry straps, they are a bit finicky. The magnets aren't as strong as they can be, but this still isn't an issue, this is just something I'm being picky about. All in all this bag is great and I would recommend it to anyone planning on going on a 2-3 day trip!

January 28, 2024

Awesome looking and functional.

What's better, it stores all my other PD Gear when it's not in use (apart from my Everyday Zip!

January 26, 2024

Quality product

Bought this a month ago - super surprised with the quality; material, handles, zipper quality, tabs. Well worth the mid-range cost for the bag.

Peak Design Travel Duffel Review (35L)

A well-designed, attractive, light-weight, feature-packed carry-on sized duffel bag with an affordable price tag - introducing the Peak Design Travel Duffel!

Bag Reviews | Peak Design Bag Reviews | Photography Gear Reviews | Last Updated: December 23, 2022

Finally! That’s what I have to say. Finally I have concluded a long time search for what I deem to be a perfect duffel bag choice for myself.

For the last few months I’ve been in search of the ideal one… but it’s hard to find one that ticks all the right boxes for me.

They’re either light and flimsy, have no structure, too rigid in structure, or are generally better suited to being a gym bag (Me? Gym??) Too often they’re also cumbersome and heavy, therefore working against you on carry-on luggage weight limitations.

I wanted something that was more “me”. Simple in style, yet classy. Not too heavy or bulky, but solid and can be trusted. And best of all, is darn good quality.

Peak Design Travel Duffel 35L

Modern, utilitarian, stylish duffel bag/backpack with customisable carry options.

When Peak Design first announced their new Travel Duffel 35L, I knew I had to have it in my collection. I just knew that it would tick all of the boxes.

It looks great, is built from premium materials, offers customisable carry styles, and has many handy little hidden compartments. It fits airline size requirements and being only 900g (2lbs) works with you on the weight limitations front too.

Not to mention you can also easily fit Peak Design’s set of Packing Tools and Camera Cubes inside, without being enormous like the Peak Design 65L Duffelpack .

But wait! What colour? Sage or Black?

Let’s jump right in to this Peak Design Travel Duffel Bag review to find out more…

Build & Appearance

Peak Design Travel Duffel main compartment travel bags bottom liner black

At first glance it’s a simple smooth looking black bag. Once you pick it up and hold it for the first time, it feels solid and rigid. It doesn’t sag in on itself, it holds its own. The shape stays firm which makes for easier packing and carrying.

The Peak Design Travel Duffel looks classy, elegant, and functional . It’s not like those large heavy brown leather bags that are merely an overweight fashion object, and as heavy while empty as all the contents you plan to load inside it.

The handles are sturdy and strong, soft to touch and comfortable no matter the carry set up you prepare.

It is very much in keeping with all the other Peak Design products, unmistakably Peak Design in every way.

As you would expect the attention to detail is impeccable , from the stitching to the buckles, and all of the inner lining as well.

The Peak Design Duffel can also be carried comfortably as a backpack.

Exterior Features

review of Peak Design Travel Duffel main compartment with zipper around. Also available in sage green

One of the greatest features of the Peak Design Travel Duffel is the ability to rearrange and reconfigure how each handle is attached to the bag, which is easily done by utilising the Cord Hook quick-connection system.

There are multiple attachment points placed along the top and sides of the bag to reattach the grab handles or shoulder strap. This allows you to prepare the bag for back carrying or for standard hand carry.

The strap can sit across the middle of the bag for cross-shoulder wear or offset to either side for single shoulder wear. This allows the bag to sit at an angle by your side, so as to not stick out awkwardly! Clever thought, right? It does make a difference!

The strap is also adjustable in length and has padding built in to it. When not in use, the end points of the bag are magnetised to hold the sides downwards and out of the way.

Either side of the Travel Duffel also has grab handles underneath, to help move the bag wherever it has been stored.

Two ways to attach the shoulder strap to carry the Travel Duffel on your shoulder – top (L) or offset (R).

The soft-touch top grab handles have light magnets inside them. This allows them to stick together to create an easy-to-find single hold point. They may be magnetised but are easy to separate.

Most duffel bags I’ve found either have a Velcro attachment which wears out over time (and is noisy), or they don’t connect together at all, tending to fall to either side. It’s a simple thing, but certainly a consideration in which, once you think about it, is really quite clever.

The zippers contain an easy-to-grab leash and they slide along the tracks with ease, never grabbing or snagging.

You’ll also find a multitude of exterior pockets, which contain pockets within the pockets, and pockets within some of those pockets. You have quite the variety of storage solutions with the Peak Design Travel Duffel.

review of Peak Design Travel Duffel

Interior Features

Being a duffel bag, one can make a rather educated assumption of what the inside of the Peak Design Travel Duffel will be like – it is large, open, and cavernous . There’s no fuss about it, it is one big large pocket to throw everything that you need in to it.

You’ll find stitched in to the sides of it small pockets to store small items that you may not want to misplace, or items you wish to hide away from peering eyes if you’re so inclined.

The inside is coloured light grey. This helps you to not lose items in the shadows, and I’m glad it’s not some gaudy bright orange or green colour like you sometimes! Peak Design keeps it stylish by choosing a rather light and neutral colour.

Many of you may find this next interior feature handy, and that is how it functions with the Peak Design Packing Tools and Camera Cubes. Instead of me diving in and telling you about products I don’t own, I figured that Peak Design will show you it best for now. You’ll see in this video below how they connect in to the bag:

Storage Capacity

As mentioned in the name, the Peak Design Travel Duffel will hold up to 35L of storage inside the main compartment… but don’t forget about all the smaller pockets littered throughout the bag.

There are two zip up pockets on either side of the bag, and within those pockets are smaller mesh pockets to hold the little goodies. If you don’t have any smaller packing solutions at hand, these smaller pockets will be of great use. You won’t have phone chargers disappearing among the rest of your luggage!

The amount of camera gear you can store within the bag also depends on the Peak Design Camera Cube that you’ve selected to use. Peak Design offer two sizes of those.

This bag doesn’t come equipped with a camera gear option by itself – that is a product you can purchase at the same time, however through their website here.

Peak Design Travel Duffel

Whether you’re using your Peak Design Travel Duffel for just clothing, clothing and photography gear, or just photography gear, you’ll be able to manage the solution well with the various packing cubes.

I like to use the Peak Design Tech Pouch – I find it handy for managing all of my little items that I don’t want to carry in my Peak Design backpack , but would rather store in my clothing bag. It’s something I use with the Duffel bag, but I use it in other luggage bags as well.

Fitted with numerous separators and small pockets, the Tech Pouch is a great solution for a common problem: How else do you manage the copious amounts of cables, plugs, chargers, cards, hard drives, and various other technology neatly in to one pouch?

Before this handy little pouch, I often lost items mixed up amongst clothing or falling to the bottom of my bag. It also fits nicely in to the Peak Design Travel Backpack.

Peak Design Travel Duffel

For those who like OCD levels of tech organisation, the Tech Pouch is the perfect solution!

For such a small, lightweight and relatively inexpensive item, the Pouch is one of my favourite ways to organise my everyday carry essentials.

If you want to learn more about it, check out my Peak Design Tech Pouch review, where I dive a bit deeper.

Ease of Use/Comfort

As you’d imagine, the Peak Design Travel Duffel is a pretty simple bag to use. You pull zipper, bag opens. You grab handle, you can carry bag. But this is a part of the Peak Design style of things. Making the simple things nicer to do!

The handles of the Peak Design Travel Duffel are soft to touch, and with the magnets hold together well. The fact that you can also remove and rearrange the handles as per your needs is a major benefit, and something I haven’t seen on other bags.

Using the Cord Hook quick-connection system can be difficult at first, but the handles are designed to withstand a forceful pull and to support the weight of a fully loaded bag. They’re designed to be harder to remove as you wouldn’t want them to come off by accident!

The Peak Design Travel Duffel is built for purpose and it serves that purpose well with how simple and comfortable it is to use. It’s no fuss, but it’s also certainly without compromise.

However you carry this bag, it is a comfortable experience . Surprisingly it is not uncomfortable or strange to carry it on your back, and looks pretty cool too!

Value for Money + Discount Code

Peak Design Travel Duffel

Peak Design are not known for selling their products cheaply, but that is because they see value in their own line-up.

By offering a lifetime warranty on all of their products, it incites confidence. If they’re willing to back their products for its entire lifespan, that is money well spent .

I’ve mentioned this numerous times before, but the build quality, materials, features, and light weight justiry a premium price tag.

At around US$130, the Peak Design Travel Duffel is not particularly expensive in comparison to other premium duffel bags… but the other added features and benefits included in the bag sets it above all else that I have found can offer.

There are plenty of cheaper travel duffel bags available, but I feel they may not give the same high quality and user experience as this one does.

Peak Design Travel Duffel | Conclusion

Peak Design Travel Duffel

Gosh it looks good anywhere that you place it down.

The Peak Design Travel Duffel has reached and exceeded my hopes and expectations within the mere short amount of time in which I have owned it.

The style, functionality, and overall feel of the bag is second to none . I cannot stress enough how beneficial it is to be light-weight, structured, and well-built when it comes to travel – especially considering how strict some airlines can be with their weight allowances. It is a bag that I am proud to wear and own.

Do you share the same requirements in a duffel? Or am I just too picky? Either way, I’ll finish this article in the same way I started it, by yelling “Finally!” .

Camera backpacks reviewed

Thanks for taking the time to read through this article! If you have any questions or thoughts about this awesome bag, whether big or small – feel free to leave them here.

Interesting review. This is is my second Peak Design bag – the first was the Peak Design Everyday Messenger which was lovely to look at but a very ordinary camera bag. SO I thought, well, maybe I made a poor choice so I’ll invest in the 35l duffel instead plus a large packing cube. Again, lovely to look at, great workmanship, quality product, but as camera bag I’m sorry to say I find it disappointing. It’s lumpy when the packing cube is full of gear and awkward to carry, the straps are too short, and for what it is it’s overpriced when you consider you have to buy a packing cube before you can carry your gear. I’m 184cm (6ft 2in) and in my mid-sixties and sadly to say still looking for that perfect day use camera bag. This isn’t it and like the EverydayMessenger I’ll be selling it on.

Interesting to hear that, Mike. Did you see the other ones I recommend here? https://shotkit.com/best-camera-backpack/

Great pack/bag. No cheap breakable parts!

By jrsatx2019

This duffel/backpack hybrid is SSOO well made. The materials, stitching, zippers, handles, loops, and metal hooks are all high HIGH quality. The thing that I like the most is that there are no plastic buckles. All of the places that a buckle would go, hip and chest srtap, use a metal hook and loop system. No carrying extra parts and wondering if something will break. I also like the use of magnates to hide the hip support strap. Very clever. The bag itself holds a lot of stuff and is perfect ... for camping, traveling, or trowing your ropes and gear into a bag. The cargo bay door system keep the bag open so that it is easy to load and unload. Over all, this a great pack. If you are looking for a large and versatile bag, that isn't a dedicated hiking bag, this is it.

Great duffle, rubbish handles on the 35L.

Picked up 35L duffle and have been really impressed with how well it works: lightweight, looks great and has excellent organisation making it a lot better for living out of. As everyone says though, the magnetic handles are really bad: uncomfortable and don?t stay together. I will say, I liked the 35L enough that I bought the 65L which doesn?t come with magnetic handles but a wrap around hand grip that makes the handles comfortable and keeps them together. Peak - please can you make th ... is standard on the 35L and make the handles with the wrap available to folk who want to upgrade their 35L! It?s so much better and I?m sure a lot of folk would want it.

Peak Design's ode to the timeless and utilitarian duffel bag, the Travel Duffle 35L is as beautiful as it is simple. Carry-on size with a 35L capacity, the Duffle is a perfect weekender, over-nighter, gym bag, or sidekick to one of our larger travel bags. Features removable padded top handles, a removable padded shoulder strap, weatherproof nylon canvas construction, and all-custom aluminum hardware. A burly #10 weatherproof zip gives high-visibility access to a single large volume, sized to work perfectly with our Packing Tools (sold separately). 2 internal and 4 external pockets provide added organization. Weatherproof nylon canvas shell with ultra-durable waterproof bottom liner.
