The plain unstructured duffel

Alternative Canvas Duffle Bag – $138.00

Too bad that L.L. Bean Signature stopped making their signature duffel.  It was the right combination of traditional cylindrical shape and no-nonsense handles that the grittier of you guys would have truly enjoyed.

The Nordstrom provided Alternative Canvas Duffle is just that, an alternative, and although while it looks better… it’s just not as roomy.

20″ wide is pretty decent but if memory serves, the L.L. Bean duffel was at least two feet long if not more.  But the Alternative Canvas version might win out in the looks department.

Plus, if you really are a gritty type, shouldn’t you be able to get through a few days on only a pair or two of underwear?  Luggage space is overrated… right?

Detachable  shoulder strap, canvas with leather trim.
