Diesel Duffle Bag

THE ASKMEN TAKE

Just begging to be taken on all your future getaways, this navy blue Diesel duffle bag is as practical as it is chic. A generous interior lets you pack all your vacation essentials and the interior mesh pouch, along with the exterior zip pocket, provide ample space for smaller items like keys and phones. Style-wise, a quilted flap top, silver fabric lining, leather contrasting, and subtle metal hardware lend a futuristic touch to this utilitarian piece. To look like you just stepped off a runway when arriving at your destination, simply add a scarf or a military-inspired coat.

UNIQUENESS

This Diesel duffle bag has the feel of a much more expensive leather bag, but because it’s mostly made from polyamide, it’s much easier to keep clean. The lightweight fabric also means you’ll be able to bring more luggage with you than you would with a heavier bag. Additionally, reinforcement with leather in key spots, as well as an overall high quality of craftsmanship, make this piece sturdier than your average fabric duffle bag. Aesthetically, multiple zippers and contrasting white stitching give this slick bag an urban edge. If you like style with attitude, this is your bag.

DURABILITY

Though it looks so very of-the-moment, this bag won’t easily appear dated. A neutral color that goes with everything and a no-nonsense design mean you’ll be turning to this piece for your travel needs for several years to come. One word of caution: Although this Diesel duffel bag is well-built and can handle a hefty load, avoid packing too many sharp objects or weighty books in it to ensure it lasts as long as possible. At close to $200, this bag is certainly a considered purchase, but it’s not one that will break the bank.
