Waterfield Designs Essential Duffel review
The Gadgeteer - September 5, 2022
“I have a feeling the Waterfield Designs Essential Duffel is the kind of item you only buy once- unless a family member claims it for themselves and you’re forced to buy another.”
SIZE GUIDE
THE DUFFEL THAT STANDS UPRIGHT
This may be the only duffel that stands upright and keeps its shape while staying light at the same time. We accomplish this by inserting weightless foam in key areas for structure.
So, the weight is evenly distributed, and your bag won't sag. It's also much easier to pack and unpack.
THE ESSENTIALS FAMILY
The Essentials Collection is a line of lightweight bags with a streamlined design, smart detailing, and features that focus on each bag's functional essence. The minimalist design delivers high impact.
For durability, we use our custom-made abrasion- and water-resistant ballistic nylon which stays looking new for many years. It withstands prolonged sun exposure so your bag will stay looking fresh and new.
These multi-functional, everyday bags are available as a Duffel, Messenger Bag, Backpack, and Crossbody bags in three different sizes for the 11-inch iPad Pro, iPad Mini, and iPhone.

We're proud to offer American-made gear built for the long haul. All our products are designed and made in our San Francisco workshop, where rent is high, labor expensive, and competition intense. We wouldn't go anywhere else.
