Missing The Most Common Fewture

I do not recommend this bag as it does not has the most common feature for a rolling duffel. There is no pull-out handle and the only place to grab is on either corner when transporting it.

Not Like The Previous Design

I have no clue why North Face "updated" the design and made it less functional. I wish I had the opportunity to purchase 5 duffels the previous version. Major drawbacks of the current version are the lack of a telescoping handle, a slanted main cargo compartment which makes packing and searching for items tedious, and the lack of end compartments. I am currently looking at other brands which seem to have better options but I'd much rather North Face bring back the previous version.

No Handle And Internal Support Is Sketchy

The no extendable handle is somewhat of a setback but it's not terrible. I've found ways to work with it. My biggest complaint in that there is a support inside the bag that is a metal rod about 1/4 in diameter. The ends of the rod are decently sharp and those ends slide into a a small 1 inch pocket made of nylon strapping. Pretty much every time I use the bag the metal support slips out of the little pocket and goes around tearing up everything in its path. It's put holes in shirts, and rubbed scratch marks into various harder items of mine and I now end up putting cardboard in the bag to prevent it from tearing things up. The metal rod cannot be removed, it is riveted in on the back of the bag. If the sides were also riveted in it would be a whole lot better. Not sure why they went with such a janky way of holding the rod into place on the ends, but it simply doesnt work. The waterproof coating, hard/ durable plastic shell bottom, and size of the bag are great, but I'm too nervous to put expensive gear into it for me to recommend the bag to others. for the price I would have expected this to be better designed.
