Indonesia is no match for this bag.
I have used this duffel for travel and field work in Indonesia for two seasons. It gets kicked, thrown, and overstuffed on a regular basis. No tears yet... that's saying a lot considering how often I fly with it as checked baggage.The little metal pull thing for one of the zippers comes off occasionally. I could fix it easily with pliers but I keep forgetting about it. The zippers never stick.I am planning to buy a couple more for the big move to Indo in January. We'll see how it handles a straight year of abuse.

Good Bag, Bad Triglides
This is a nice, simple, durable bag. I have one friend who asked me where he could find the same bag. I use it for a gym bag and it fits perfectly in the locker on end, and the size is perfect so packing stuff in is not a struggle. The one drawback is the brittle triglides. One triglide broke during use, the other broke when I tested its strength with a gentle twist. I bought replacement triglides which survived the test : [@]
