What is the Patagonia Black Hole Wheeled Duffel 40L?
Meet the Patagonia Black Hole Wheeled Duffel 40L. It’s your go-anywhere, do-anything travel companion. With wheels, smart storage, and a compact build that fits most carry-on specs, this bag is a favourite for well-organised adventures.
What is it made of?
The outer shell of the Patagonia Black Hole Wheeled Duffel 40L is made from a rugged 14.1-oz, 900-denier recycled polyester ripstop. The ripstop weave reinforces the fabric to prevent tears from spreading, essential for a travel bag that endures rough handling. A recycled TPU-film laminate adds durability and water resistance, protecting the bag from scuffs, scratches, and general wear. The polyester is post-consumer recycled, giving new life to materials like plastic bottles and reducing reliance on virgin fibres.
Lining Fabric
Inside, the lining is a lightweight 3-oz, 200-denier recycled polyester plain weave. Though thinner than the outer shell, it’s smooth, strong, and protected with a PU coating to resist moisture and ease cleaning. The lining is also Bluesign-approved, ensuring a safer, more environmentally responsible production process.
Webbing
The duffel’s reinforcing straps and webbing are made from 100% recycled nylon, chosen for its exceptional strength and abrasion resistance. Webbing supports heavy loads and withstands constant tension, making it ideal for handles, lash points, and structural reinforcement.
Fair Trade Certified
The duffel is made in a Fair-Trade Certified factory, ensuring workers receive fair wages, safe working conditions, and additional community development funds.
What are its features?
The bag’s main compartment is spacious enough for clothes, shoes, and bulkier gear. Mesh pockets in the lid keep smaller essentials organised and visible.
External Access Pocket
A zippered external top pocket stores travel essentials like passports, tickets, or chargers. It keeps them accessible without opening the main compartment.
Oversized, Field-Repairable Wheels
The oversized wheels handle uneven terrain with ease. They’re field-repairable, with backup axles stored inside the frame so you can fix issues on the go.
Reinforced Haul Handles
Reinforced handles positioned around the bag make grabbing, lifting, and loading easy. Durable construction ensures long-term reliability during demanding travel.
Lash Points for Extra Gear
Sturdy lash points let you attach extra equipment—like helmets, ropes, or pads—when the main compartment is full.
Internal Compression Straps
Compression straps secure your load, preventing items from shifting and helping keep your packing tidy.
Collapsible Internal Frame
The collapsible frame allows the duffel to fold flat for compact storage when not in use.
