High Sierra Fairlead 28 DB Wheeled Duffel

Great bag! I bought it for a safari trip and it worked great. Spacious storage, great design and very durable.

Needed to replace my 20+ year old Wilson duffel bag which was beginning to unravel. Do note I wanted a true duffel bag--not a hybrid duffel/suitcase. A true duffel bag to me has a specific shape, takes minimal storage space when not in use, packs easily, has lots of compartments, is light and compact, water resistant and has a high cool factor. I studied every one I could find online ranging from $30 to $1,200 and chose the 28" High Siera Fairlead portable 28 inch as it had all the features I want, plus one bonus I didn't know existed. I had some trepidation as the price was much lower than the other ones I was seriously considering. However, the High Sierra arrived clearly well constructed, strong and the separate container at bottom keeps my cloths tightly packed and unwrinkled. The tie down straps in the bottom section are sweet. If I don't want to pack both compartments separately I just unzip the divider and have one large expanse of space. The one "gotcha" is that the video with the guy with the red duffel bag claims there are TWO end compartments -- one on each end -- but there is only ONE, and it is on the end with the retractible handle. Maybe the newer models were modified to allow the bag to better stand on end which some complained about, but to me standing on end is not something true duffel bags do well. Regardless, this one does a better job at this than my old one did. I especially like the strong material constructuon and the sturdy telescoping handle which gladly comes out much farther than the video shows. It wheels itself along very nicely and with good stability. I couldn't be happier with the High Sierra except maybe for that second external compartment I was expecting, but the one external compartment is much larger than expected and will suit my needs. Good job High Sierra!

Perfect size bag for a 2 week trip. Like the 2 compartments to help organize.

If a bag that doesn’t stand upright will disappoint then avoid this one. However, it’s durable and works great for the price. No issues with the zippers or wheels after several international flights.

Bag is very roomy and the wheels and handle have held up well. The zippers however, have started failing after 1 year of frequent travel. Probably ok for the money, but I will be replacing with something of higher quality.

I like this bag very much! Unexpectedly nice quality. I am taking it to Africa later this year, it has been highly recommended by many travelers for high intensity trips.

This is a great suitcase! Holds so m!

I love High Sierra bags. I am still using my huge one (maybe 34") from 11 years ago and it's in near perfect condition. So naturally I wanted a smaller one for quick trips. I love the drop bottom and top entry pocket. It makes accessing things you've packed so convenient. Naturally I've ordered the 22" for carry on as well. This is just so much more convenient than a regular suitcase. The quality and durability of this brand is unmatched. The wheels glide so smoothly, they're basically whisper quiet. I ordered this Used-Like New, so I got a steal as far as pricing, but I'd pay full price if the former wasn't an option because the value for the cost is so high with this one. You'll use this bag for years to come. Light enough to carry as a duffel, but conveniently has wheels for the times you don't want to carry. I can't say enough good things. Don't hesitate to buy.

Por favor quiero devolverla o que me la cambien a quien puedo contactar

Purchased this for a recent four week trip abroad. Held all of my items well. It is narrower than the last time I bought the same style item in this brand. You have to be very aware of placing your heaviest items at the opposite end of the bag from the pull up travel handle as it tips over quite easily if you want it to stand upright. The zipper was a bit difficult to get to zip around the corners at times (not related to the bag being overfilled). Overall, I was happy with the amount of items I could pack into this bag. It has adequate handles for being able to grab it and throw it into bus hatches and train storage bins. i did find that the Velcro on the wrap around part that keeps the handles together is not the best Velcro I’ve seen as it doesn’t always stayed secured. My former bag of this kind lasted for six years so I am hoping this one has good longevity as well.

Product is very sturdy. Thank you very much

Le rangement est parfait. Je le recommande.
