DUFFEL + BRIEF IN ONE

Is the Shinjuku Duffel a briefcase with extra space for overnight items? Or a compact duffel with a dedicated work section? It's both!

The Shinjuku Duffel's layout, structure, and organization efficiently store an overnight's worth of gear without creating a large, unwieldy bag.

Unlike traditional duffels where items shift around freely, the Shinjuku Duffel features three distinct compartments that keep work gear, personal items, and frequently-accessed essentials neatly separated. No more digging through a jumbled mess — simply go to the right compartment to find what you need.

Perfect for today's hybrid work styles, its compact size fits in overhead bins and and stands upright on metro floors. Pack light for the office or load it up as a sophisticated weekender bag.

DETAILS MATTER

As with all WaterField products, the Shinjuku Duffel includes thoughtful features designed for daily comfort and convenience. When fully packed, the two main compartments stay securely closed while you access smaller items from the dedicated pockets.

The discreet rear pocket uses rare-earth magnets for secure, silent closure, perfect for passports and valuables. The front pocket holds frequently accessed items like your wallet, phone, or keys, with a built-in tether to keep keys secure. Everything closes with water-resistant YKK zippers.

CANVAS GOES HIGH TECH

X-Pac® Canvas combines the durability, lightweight construction, and water-resistance of X-Pac® with the soft, refined feel of traditional canvas. This high-performance textile makes the Shinjuku Duffel comfortable to carry, light when packed, and effortlessly stylish.

TRADITIONAL 15 OZ. WAXED CANVAS

Not all waxed canvas bags are created equal. Lower quality bags use 6 oz. canvas. The majority designated as “durable” use 12 oz. canvas. At 15 oz., our waxed canvas exceeds what is commonly sold in the market, yet it's still lightweight. Its naturally rugged, distressed look and can be re-waxed to freshen it up.

We source our canvas from a reputable U.S. mill that has produced these fabrics since 1930. This specialized textile is coated with Martexin Original Wax™ and shouldn't require much cleaning. Stains can be wiped off with a damp cloth.

SHINJUKU COLLECTION

Inspired by Tokyo's vibrant, fast-paced neighborhood, this Collection is designed to help you nimbly navigate crowds with agility and style. These sophisticated bags are compact, lightweight, and comfortable to carry. The Collection also includes a Backpack, Tote, Crossbody, Tech Organizer, Messenger Bag, Sling, and Brief.

Crafted from traditional Waxed Canvas or modern X-Pac® Canvas with full-grain leather accents and premium hardware, these bags are made to last a lifetime.

HOW TO FRESHEN UP CANVAS

If you have the Shinjuku Duffel in traditional waxed canvas, you can keep it looking like new by applying wax when you think it needs a little refresh. While any quality wax will work, we recommend Martexin Original Wax™ — the same premium coating originally applied to your canvas bag.
