The Tough Gear Bag by Northstar is a versatile duffle gear bag for everything from daily use to travel as carry-on luggage.
Years of car travel across USA taught us valuable lessons about the benefits of a big, tough, gear bag that can keep everything you need for the trip in one place. We designed this rugged duffle bag to be durable enough to withstand a long life in the truck bed while looking good enough for the front seat every day of the week.
Simple design elements in the Tough Gear Bag make it strong, resilient, and timeless in style.
Tough build materials, like the diamond rip-stop shell fabric that is dura coated for protection against wetness, ensure lasting durability.
Value is important to us and we know it is important to you, so we guarantee all of our products will meet your satisfaction.
Over the years we have had countless requests to make our bags waterproof. We found the best way to achieve maximum content protection from wetness is to add a thin layer of PVC sealant to the inside of the Polyester fabric of our bags. The majority of the time, that PVC coating is well within the acceptable range for health standards. Variance in our fabric supply chain at times will have more PVC coating than other times. Due to that variance we feel it is important to share the following warning with our customers.
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Polyethylene plastic hardware was selected for our duffle bag clasps and slides for its proven durability, impact strength, and resilience in harsh conditions. Poly plastic is silent during movement, will never rust, is non-leeching, and is soft to the touch. Best of all polyethylene hardware is light weight.
Tubular webbing is both lightweight and insanely robust during extended usage. Our simple carry handle design creates a continuous loop of webbing that cradles the duffel bag to maximize carry strength. All stress points are box stitched with double-reinforced fabric backing.
After a decade of refining Northstar duffels we have arrived with the perfect value. Featuring box stitched webbing handles at each end of the duffle bag, looped webbing midsection handles, and an adjustable detachable webbing shoulder strap. We've chipped away at the marble and found art.
Boy Scouts are tough on gear, and so are airlines! We took 21 Northstar duffel bags stuffed with backpacks and other gear through 4 flights and 6 trips through baggage handling equipment with zero problems... This is a 5 Star product for backpack transport!
Outstanding Value! I am a sailor who goes on long distance ocean voyages (e.g. 1200nm) and I need a good seabag that is big enough to carry all of my gear that is needed for long voyages and from hot weather areas (e.g. Florida) to cold weather areas (e.g. Maine, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland)... Very good value at this price point. I was not disappointed!
I bought this to stuff child car seats (carseats) into for our family's airplane vacation trip. It's as big as the description says (so big that I was a little concerned), but I ended up needing every inch to stuff in my kid's three carseats (a Diono Radian carseat for my 3-year-old and two no back boosters for my elementary kids)... Bag held up perfectly during transport and all car seats were kept very safe.
"Scout Troop 78 from Boulder, Colorado loves Northstar Bags 1640 duffel bag because it's huge enough to hold all the personal gear our Scouts take into the Rocky Mountains for winter campouts: two sleeping bags, two sleeping pads, tent, wool blanket, extra clothes, and much more. These bags are tough enough to toss into the back of a pickup truck and drive through a snowstorm, keeping gear dry. Nothing makes winter camping easier than a giant duffel bag, and Northstar makes the best we've seen."
-- Dave Trendler, Scoutmaster, Troop 78, Boulder, Colorado
