Bolt Duffel Bag

Very high-quality, extremely handsome, very practical and useful.

Been using the smaller version for years. Decided to upsize and get the large as well. The small size is a great overnight bag, while the large is more of a weekend bag, or if it’s cold weather and you’re packing larger, thicker items. The large is substantially larger.

I still plan on using both depending on the size of the trip. The small would also be a great gym bag, albeit, a bit overkill in quality for just a gym bag.

I have the larger version of this duffel for longer trips, and I use the cross-body version Daily, it’s indispensable toolkit to me - they are superb! This smaller version is perfect for weekend getaways and Most Welcome. Cheers to the Team for spectacular service!!

I've now used the bolt duffel (small, single compartment) for a few outings and I'm pleased with the quality, utility, and style of the bag. I was looking for a bag to better accommodate 1-2 day work trips, rather than a bag to bring in addition to my wheeled carry-on luggage. I originally ordered the large duffel, and found that it was a bit large and bulky for this need -- I would estimate the large duffel could hold anywhere from 4-7 days of clothing. For trips of that length, I'd prefer to opt for luggage instead of a duffel. I most recently used it when I needed to commute straight to a work meeting from the gym -- I packed my laptop, notebook, a change of clothes, a snack, and some toiletries, and everything fit, with a little bit of room to spare. While the front and back compartments appeared well equipped to hold a large water bottle, I found that my water bottle was drooping a bit in the pocket; I think those pockets are a better place to stow phone, keys, etc. on the go.

I chose the canvass with grizzly leather, and I am happy with this choice. The canvass and leather are attractive and have a quality, durable feel. The bag maintains its shape relatively well when empty.

Lastly, I had originally ordered the large duffel and decided to return it and instead order the small. In doing so, I found Waterfield's customer service to be responsive, professional, and effective.

Overall highly recommend this bag!

I have purchased a number of Waterfield products over the years. Every one of them is the highest quality. They are always beautifully made, well designed and look great. I just used this bag on a few day trip and was very happy with it. I am looking forward to my next trip just to be able to use it again!

This is a great duffel and I really like the flexible mid liner, it's a really smart way to use space! This is my second purchase from SF Bags, and will definitely not be my last!
