A great bag to use

"A great bag to use for a trip."

— Quincy M. (5/5)

Bad design

"This is such an awkwardly designed bag. It doesn’t know that it’s trying to be a duffel, more like a very confused backpack. Not recommending this to anyone"

Amazing as always from Pelican

Its a beautiful suitcase, but

"Its a beautiful suitcase, but its not really a duffel. Its also not 40L as described. I have a Kammok duffel which is 30L and its larger than Pelicans MPD40, which is incredibly disappointing as its the reason I bought it. That said, the bag is of great quality. While this is a minor detail there is an amazing side zipper that allows the clasp to be stored and secures the zipper from opening. Its a stunning detail of functional design and smart. If the bag were size correctly and larger itd be perfect as a suitcase, but its not a duffel."

Quality Bag

"So far, Quality bag, looks/feels solid and as advertised. Looking forward to putting it to the test!"

Great duffel at a good price!

"Very satisfied with this duffel, the perfect size for carry-on travel. Holds all the essentials for a week trip (or more). Well designed and very rugged. Perfectly placed carry handles and comfortable backpack straps. The only thing that would be an improvement is to have a way to stow the backpack straps as sometimes they can get snagged in checked baggage. Other than that I love this bag and cant wait to have it travel with me."

— Lance B. (4/5)

Good quality but hard to actually use.

"Im overall pleased with the quality of the bag, but its rather hard to actually use. In order to open the duffel I have to unbuckle not only the compression straps, but also the backpack/handle straps! This makes in really a pain to get stuff in and out quickly or frequently. The bag kinda straddles the line between a true duffel and a backpack, honestly it should be redesigned to be one or the other, with a focus on being easier to get into. The ""neat-ness"" factor of semi stiff fabric and defined shape is totally lost when all its straps are undone and askew every time I need to access the inside."
