Description of DAKINE 60/40 Convertible Rolling Gear Bag - 9300cu in.:
The DAKINE 60/40 Convertible Rolling Gear Bag holds a ridiculous 9700cu inches worth of gear and comes apart into two separate bags to beat airline weight restrictions. “Traveling light” has nothing to do with this giant DAKINE travel duffel. No matter how much stuff you load into the 60/40 Convertible Rolling Gear Bag, its retractable handle and urethane wheels help you stroll through the airport with ease. DAKINE also includes two top pockets to keep smaller stuff from disappearing into the depths of this massive bag.
Bottom Line: Carry all the gear you could ever need on a trip with the huge DAKINE 60/40 Convertible Rolling Gear Bag.
i am an outside sales rep and this bag has been a life saver for showing clothing. it looks very nice and presents well with all the pockets. this has done so well for me that i purchased a 2nd bag. the airport gets so excited when they say they need to charge me for being over their weight limits... simply detach the two bags and your on your way. no charges from the airport and confidence that the bag will hold up well with the gorillas handling your bags behind the scenes.
OK, FIRST THE BAG CAN HOLD ALMOST ANYTHING YOU COULD WANT, ACTUALLY TO MUCH, YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL OF THE WEIGHT WHEN FLYING. I LIKE THE BAG BUT! IT DID NOT STAND UP TO AIR TRAVLE, MY FIRST TIME TO USE IT I FLEW TO CHICAGO, TO HEATH-ROW THEN ON TO ZURICH SWITZERLAND - I PULLED THEN HANDLE OUT AT THE ZURICH AIRPORT AND IT WAS STUCK - AND TRYING TO COME OUT CROOKED. AS I CONTINUED TO PUSH IT IN AND THEN PULL OUT , ALONG ROD AS WELL AS A SMALL PIECE OF PLASTIC AND A SMALL SCREW CAME OUT - OH WELL - PICKED UP THE CAR AND WENT ON TO BERN. I TOLD THE AIRLINE (AA) THEY BASICALLY SAID TOUGH SHE-AT. I OWN OTHER DAKINE BAGE - SKI, SNOWBOARD, AND SURF, THIS ONE I WILL TRY AGAIN BUT1 WISH IT WOULD HAVE LASTED LONGER THAT 1 TRIP
I went on a biking/camping trip for a week. And it was thrown arround a lot and at the end of the trip it still looked like it could take more of a beating.
It held everything. From my air mattress, sleeping bag, all of my clothes etc. Was also easy to roll over dirt & grass...and with all my stuff it weighed a little over 60 pounds.
When I flew I detached them and avoided the over sized baggage fees which are a lot more expensive than paying for 2 checked bags.
I'll buy this bag again if it ever falls apart...but looking at the quality I think that will be a long time from now.
