Types of travel bags

First of all, you should decide which type of travel bag is best suited to your particular use.

• Smaller backpacks are a good choice for day trips
• Shoulder bags do not distribute the load over both shoulders like a backpack, but all your important items are always within easy reach.
• Tote bags or shopping bags are ideal for a stroll around town or a day at the beach.
• Duffel bags offer plenty of storage space depending on the model and are comfortable to carry. This makes them ideal for many different travelling purposes.

Advantages of duffel bags

It's not without reason that duffel bags, which were invented back in the 18th century, are very popular - whether you're travelling to the gym or on a long trip. They score particularly highly with these advantages:

• Storage space: Depending on the model, duffel bags offer plenty of space for clothes and equipment - some models even offer up to 120 litres. Smaller models are available with a volume of 30 or 40 litres, for example.
• Flexibility: Most duffel bags offer two carrying options: in the hand and as a shoulder bag or backpack. They are also softer and slightly more compact than suitcases, for example.
• Ruggedness and light weight: Specialised duffel bags for expeditions in particular are made from very durable, often waterproof materials. They are also relatively light, often even a little lighter than a trekking backpack with the same volume.

What should I look out for when buying travel bags & duffel bags?

Travel bags & duffel bags offer the most advantages if they fit the exact requirements and conditions of the planned journey. Thicker clothing for travelling in cold climates needs more space. A larger bag also makes sense for tours or excursions where you are taking a lot of equipment with you. But it shouldn't be too heavy either, especially if you are travelling long lengths with your luggage. You should also consider what you expect from the material and its durability. Last but not least, how you want to carry the duffel bag is of course also important - so pay attention to the respective carrying devices.
