The North Face Rolling Thunder Duffel - 4455 - 8400cu in

4880 cu in

By Ranked #15 - Rolling Gear Bags July 17, 2008

I bought the smaller 'rolling thunder' bag here from this site over a year ago. Its been on 8 flights, and i used it EVERY weekend for about 5 months when i would drive to the mountains to go skiing. Still... it's in great shape and has passed the test of time. The rollerblade wheels work surprisingly well in snow, grass, turf, ice, after-party scum, and dirt. Even after all the abuse, they still roll silent on concrete. Although i could use a larger bag, and would purchase the 8400 cu in version in a heartbeat... it is 2" too large for most airlines (its linear length is 64" and airlines usually limit to 62"). BUMMER!!! Hey northface R&D- shave 2 inches off so we don't have to pay the 'oversize' baggage fees at the airport! Chances are, with this bag, we'll already be paying for 'overweight' fees.
