Iconic for good reason, the Medium Base Camp Duffel Bag from The North Face is trusted by travellers and adventurers from the Himalayas to urban metropolises. It’s now made from water-resistant recycled materials but packs the same durability and ruggedness. It’s not just tough; it’s really practical, too, with a tonne of thought-through features that make it an explorer’s best friend. Use it as a duffel when in transit with the two padded side handles, or wear it as a backpack with the detachable, adjustable ergonomic shoulder straps when you’re on the move.

It opens right up, so you can see what you’ve packed in its spacious 71L capacity. If you do manage to over-pack, the four compression straps will help you find space for a little more. There’s a zipped end-cap pocket for separating dirty shoes or wet clothes without sacrificing space in the main compartment, which has a mesh pocket for helping you get organised.
