So practical for short excursions and long weekends, PATAGONIA 's BLACK HOLE DUFFEL 40L is the most compact travel bag in the Black Hole Duffel collection.

Sturdy and extremely weather-resistant, this travel bag is made from ripstop polyester with a TPU laminate for effective weather protection and durable water-repellent treatment. As a result, your belongings are perfectly protected from the elements, while the 40-liter volumeoffers great functionality. Indeed, the main compartment features a U-shaped zipped opening, with two zipped mesh pockets under the flap for storing small items that are easily lost. What's more, the zippered exterior pocket provides quick access to the things you need most, while the padded bottom keeps the bag in shape and protects its contents from shocks inflicted by baggage handlers.

This bag offers several carrying options: removable, padded backpack straps, sturdy canvas handles with snap closures, and hoisting handles at the ends that can also be used to connect several bags. Also, four hardware straps allow you to carry more gear on the outside.

And if you don't need to use the bag, it folds into its outside pocket for compact storage.
