Mountain Hardware Camp 4 Duffel 95
Quick Verdict
Hauling large volumes of gear for car-camping, group trips, basecamp or checked-bag travel where ruggedness and capacity matter more than ultralight weight or fine organization.
Lightweight backpacking, one-bag minimalist travel, or users who need lots of internal pockets and full waterproofing.
Frequently discounted during sales (20–50% off); common ~20–25% reductions on major sale events, occasional deeper clearances.
