Read MoreIt is plain and simple with no breakable parts like zippers, wheels, snaps, or buttons and built with as few seams as possible because seams are where all duffle bags start falling apart. Therefore, there are only two really big pieces of leather with a solid piece sewn on each end of this travel bag. And we sew the leather at only 5 stitches per inch, so there's more leather between the needle holes and fewer holes to start a tear. I designed it to be versatile. Buckled smaller at the first hole to be smaller or expanded way out jam-packed, buckled at the last hole. The dimensions are ideal to be able to fill it up and be around a 50 lb. limit. You could fit a dead body in it, like a deer or wild hog or something. This beast of a leather duffle bag is for big travel where a lesser man's luggage just won't do. I know you could get one with wheels (that will soon break), but why? Get this and add a little exercise to your day. Seriously, don't be afraid of using your muscles. It's good for you.
---Cows are waterproof, right? It's because the top part of their hide has tightly woven together fibers. So the skin still has all of the grain (Full Grain Leather). No scars have been shaved or sanded off to leave only a little bit of the grain there (Top Grain Leather). Therefore, it's the strongest cow leather there is, and that's what we use. And we use thick full-grain. It's then lined with pigskin, which is tougher than cowskin. This pigskin lining adds incredible strength combined with the cowskin. Our custom 316 Stainless Steel hardware is amazing (please, please google it). It's the metal of choice when your life depends on it. The thread is strangely strong industrial marine grade UV resistant polyester thread. And thick. No other leather duffle bag will last as long as this one.
---We design and make our leather duffle bags to last. From the quality material to the craftsmanship, we put our best into everything we make. So if you are looking for a leather overnight bag with an adjustable shoulder strap, a leather weekender bag, or a large duffle bag like this one, we make them. Not good quality, but great quality travel bags are from Saddleback Leather Co. You will feel fulfilled carrying our high quality leather bags.
Beast is very well built. My wife went off the first video that you can use it as a backpack. They have discontinued that version. We used the bag for the very first time it was a nightmare. Yea not good with a handle and shoulder strap when you have more baggage to carry and have 3 girls. We had to sprint to get an airport cart and sprint back to the car to get the luggage then get everyone together to get back into the terminal and going through the parking structure then drop it for checking in. Worse when we landed and picking up a rental. Hopefully the can bring back the backpack version. Might put it back n feeBay.

I've had my beast since 2012, purchased as a Dave's Deals with no noticeable issues. It works really well for holding 30 days worth of clothing. When not being used for travel it also works very well for storing other items.

A couple of somewhat serious flaws, IMHO. Too big to check without possibly paying some pretty high fees for oversized baggage, and cold really use a shoulder/carrying strap.

I've had the older design of this bag for around five years now. I can't imagine owning and using this bag without the backpack straps. Unless you pack it with pillows, I honestly can't imagine someone carrying this with just one handle. It's 12lbs EMPTY. Filling this with enough volume to consider it "full" this bag (for me) would weight around 50-55lbs. That's a bit extreme to call it a duffel and carry it as such. Unless you use it as a trunk for storage in your car, or in your home, I have a hard time believing someone could use this as a duffel. I took this thing through airports and without a cart (or the awesome backpack straps) it would have been a PAIN to lug around.
Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful bag. Well designed, well made. Compliments everywhere. I'm glad I have it. I just wouldn't want to use it if I didn't have the backpack straps. That's the only reason this design gets 4 stars. I would give MY design 5 stars, because the backpack straps make this a very useable and gorgeous bag.
