I haven't traveled with it yet but it appears roomy, well made, and easy to pack.
Hi there, I’m now using the bag during a three week trip in Australia and it is excellent as a carry-on and to haul my swimming gear. My only disappointment is that I ordered it in the new Stone gray color, but it would not be available by the time of my departure for Australia so we substituted the olive green or khaki green. I had asked if the $15 FedEx charge could be waived and nobody ever got back to me on it despite to request to do so.
The person I gave the bag to loved it, and the next day it was used to pack stuff for a skiing day.
Unfortunately, the tariffs now imposed on Canada will prevent me from wanting to purchase American products and services for a while.
What else would you expect from this company? This bag delivers in its promises
Just used it on my week long trip , mainly for getting souvenirs and gifts back. This packable duffel is great as it does not take up much space when flying to my vacation location, but is still able to hold a lot of stuff , be locked and checked in when flying back. Awesome concept and the best execution of the design. Thanks for producing such a quality product.
Design details

THE MAGICAL MATERIAL
With input from over 1000 customers, we set out to design a packable bag ideal for both travel and every day.
To support multiple uses, we created a custom-made material that combines Taslan — a high-tech woven fabric that feels natural and substantial — with a layer of tricot mesh for structure and a water-resistant coating.
This durable, lightweight textile still looks crisp and unwrinkled even after it has been stuffed or folded.

THE SQUISHABLE, EXPANDABLE DUFFEL
The Packable Duffel conveniently folds down into its small interior pocket and tucks away into your suitcase for emergency use.
The spacious interior expands 25% to hold additional gear. A beautiful silver lining adds extra strength and wipes clean easily. Double zipper pulls can be locked together for extra security. With these thoughtful details, this might become your favorite duffel for everyday, not just for traveling.

HOW TO FOLD
1. Lay the Packable Duffel flat and take out the interior pocket.
2. Fold into thirds toward the middle.
3. Roll from the bottom toward the pocket.
4. Turn the pocket inside out and flip the roll into the pocket.
5. Zip it up and go.

THE PACKABLE BAG COLLECTION
These bags are designed to be both packable for taking on trips and usable for daily carry. The WaterField Packable Collection uses custom-made lightweight, durable, water-resistant material that stays crisp and wrinkle-free when unpacked. This gives all the bags a clean, professional look.
All the Packables fold into their own pockets so they can be stashed in your luggage without taking up much room. The Packable Backpack can hold small tablets and laptops in their own protective sleeve. The Packable Duffel expands to accommodate multiple items.
YOU MADE IT HAPPEN
We asked our community what their ideal packable bag would include. They told us they wanted the convenience of a packable bag with the functionality of a regular WaterField bag.
Using the right textile was key, so we set about creating one that combined packability with style.
The community also had different ideas of the type of packable bag they wanted, so we created a collection. See the process from start to finish here.
