ORTLIEB Duffle 40 L

The Ortlieb Duffle 40 L is a travel bag built around one core promise: your belongings stay dry, no matter what. Its IP67 rating means it is fully dustproof and can withstand submersion in up to one metre of water for 30 minutes — whether that means a sudden downpour, a river crossing or a bag dropped overboard. Access is straightforward thanks to the TIZIP waterproof zip, which runs the full length of the bag for easy packing and unpacking. A built-in wire loop at the zip allows you to secure it with a padlock (not included), making it a practical choice for bike touring, hostels or shared transport. Inside, two separate inner pockets help organise smaller items, while internal compression straps let you reduce bulk when the bag isn't fully loaded. The base is reinforced with PS620C fabric, chosen for its resistance to abrasion and tearing — important when the bag regularly sits on metal racks or rough surfaces. Two daisy chains on top provide extra attachment points for bungee cords or accessories. With removable padded shoulder straps, the Duffle converts into a comfortable backpack in seconds. Made in Germany and backed by a 5-year warranty, this is a bag designed to last through years of daily use.
