YETICrossroads Duffel Bag

I bought the Yeti 40l duffel bag to support my 8-day trip to Sydney (from the US). My goals were simple:1. Hand carry the whole way2. Contain 4-5 days of clothes, allowing for longer stays with periodic washing3. Support both hand and shoulder carryI didn’t want to drag a rectangular, wheel-bag around even though they are convenient over short distances. I wanted to be more agile and flexible and cover any distance needed, which suits the duffel style. The Yeti performed great.Different shape to fit into, but it wasn’t difficult to adapt. I also carried a back pack and adjusted the Yeti’s shoulder strap length to ensure the bags had minimal contact. Obviously carrying vs dragging a bag has its own benefits and challenges, and accepting all of these, the Yeti performed like a star. Super strong material, plenty of grab handles, and easy to carry. Great to live out of (which we all do when traveling) with the big lid opening. If you’re into the duffel bag style and want a strong, good-looking product that performs well, I recommend the Yeti.

This bag is built tough. I used it for a vacation trip and had it packed tight. It held up well and definitely will last long.I would definitely recommend this bag to others.

Durable quality & easy pack for travel. Tired of suitcases...heavy due to common wheel frame design. If your a light packer this is the pack for you. Outside pockets included & can be hand or shoulder carried. With looks & design it will protect you items in any weather.

This bag is great though it might be overkill for my use. I bought it as a gym bag to replace a 31L North Face bag. It does great but its a little over sized. For reference it can carry, shoes, shower sandals, a full change of clothes, shower bag, large water bottle, and protein shake bottle without issue. The top zipper can be used as a wet storage area and can fit sandals and a loofah without issue. I use those dehydration pouches to keep everything fresh. The big has rigid sides which prevents it from beign crumpled. It also has the undesired effect of making the make rather wide. My coworkers said it looks like a casserole bag. Overall it doesnt excactly what I need it to do but it might be a little big.

Wish it had a few more pockets but overall very durable and I do like it. Have a couple of them now. Little pricy but you get what you pay for.

Got this because I own everything Yeti and the bag doesn't disappoint. Very durable and a lot of zipped compartments. My only complaint would be the zipper is a little hard to open and close but I imagine it will break in the more I use it. The bigger size, 60L seems a little small still but I am using it for gear, not for clothing.

This product has insane build quality. I didn’t keep it because 60L is just too big for carrying through airports. It fit in bins just fine, but I would have gone with a 40L if I didn’t already have a bag that size.Also of note, the strap metal clips popped out of mine. Luckily I was able to find them and snap them back in. I think it happened when the bag was slung over my shoulder at an awkward angle.

Boyfriend loves it! And I’m hoping to get one soon as I see the King Crab color.

I’ve looked around too much for yet another duffle. I already own this bag for another purpose, so buying a second is a high testament to its build, as I don’t like cheap quality bags.I’m housing a bunch of camera and video gear in this iteration of a duffle. I looked hard at leather and came close to pulling the trigger on a couple but had second thoughts’ mostly because of the higher cost. I’m a very huge fan of waxed canvas, but unfortunately could not nail down one to do it for me.I wanted a thick’ lightly padded well made structure with a solid flat bottom. It has to carry serious weight for a style of bag this size, needs to be carried by hand or over the shoulder and has a decent protection against light rain. Everything came back to the Yeti Crossroads Duffle. Now Yeti stuff ain’t cheap, but this is a company where the product commensurates with the cost. It’s top-shelf stuff. Aside from a few leather bags that tempted me (and boy did they), it was hard justifying two to three times more dough to serve my needs. Oh yes, that leather smell, look and feel is to die for. But the Crossroads in its awesome blue colour is a fabulous bag that has hooked me twice after a fair look around.Everything on this bag is much better quality than average. Zippers (a bit stiff at first - not like Briggs & Riley) but work in, like a fine instrument. The strong cordura type fabric is a premium choice’, being thick and robust, yet having a soft feel at the same time. Stitching, seams and all fittings are A1. The interior has partitions that can be used or not and it also has inside zipper pockets. It swallows a ton of stuff. And the hard bottom helps protect the contents.This is a great bag. They rarely or never go on sale unfortunately. But worth every dollar compared to the vast competition out there.Recommended.

Nice duffel for overnight or a smaller amount of items (40L). It would work good for carry-on bag. I would suggest next size bigger if expecting to pack for a few days or carry much. Stiff bottom and all is made thick and durable just as Yeti products usually are. Camp green is a great color!

Obviously there is sticker shock spending almost $300 on a duffel but after owning one’s made by north face and Patagonia I have to say the yeti is my favourite. Easily packed a WEEK worth of summer clothes for a recent vaca and still had some room to spare. Brought it as carry on and it easily fit under the seat on the plane as well as in overhead.
