Our Verdict
The Patagonia Black Hole Wheeled Duffel 40L is a reliable travel companion. It has a 40-litre capacity, perfectly sized for short trips, and is compatible with most airline carry-on requirements. Reinforced with a TPU laminate, the recycled polyester construction feels robust enough to handle abrasions and weather exposure while being eco-conscious. The interior features a spacious main compartment with mesh pockets to keep your gear organised, while the external zip pocket is ideal for travel essentials like passports or snacks.
Mobility is a highlight, thanks to smooth-rolling wheels and a sturdy telescoping handle, which make navigating busy terminals a breeze. The soft-sided structure allows some flexibility when packing, though it’s worth attention to weight distribution to avoid shifting contents. At 3,447g, it’s not featherlight, but the durable build and thoughtful design justify the weight.
