Reasons to buy

  • The rectangular shape maximizes the 40L capacity of this bag.
  • Made from sustainable and recycled materials so you know you are doing your "part" when you opt for this bag.
  • Organization and pockets are convenient to use.
  • Can be carried as a backpack and as a shoulder bag also.

Things to consider

  • The bag should be fully packed in order to function well.
  • The duffel handles clashes with the backpack straps in a way because it can't be removed.

What reviewers said

  • "I use this for climbing gym gear and Chose this one over North Face because the Patagonia has a satchel hand strap, whereas the Base Camp does not anymore. Aesthetically, these duffels look great; and temptation is to think they will not stand up to a beating. But this is my second, and I can vouch from the first that they are tough as nails."
  • "Fits easy in overhead locker, easy pockets, great backpack option, great grab handles, waterproof. What's not to love."
  • "These are so durable! Mine came shipped with the ink tag on it still but after I finally got it off and opened it up I was immediately impressed by the quality of materials, stitching, volume, and the size of the top opening! A+ workmanship, Patagonia!"

Patagonia Black Hole Duffel Bag 40L Review
packhacker.com
On the road, it’s a great travel companion—especially if packed out correctly. During our testing, we’ve found the best carry experience, for both duffle and backpack modes, when you completely fill it up out with clothes and/or packing cubes. Plus, it’s a popular bag, so we saw plenty of other travelers using these in the wild. It feels like we’re part of a club.
