Rolling duffle for extended trips
Travelling can be tough on bags. They get shoved in holds, thrown into baggage carts and chucked onto airport carousels, then squeezed into lockers or stuffed in the back of rental cars. And if you’re going on far-flung adventures or serious expeditions, the demands get even greater. What you need is a duffel that can take serious abuse. The Ortlieb Duffle RS is a tough, fully waterproof travel bag with heavy-duty rolling wheels and an aluminium skid plate to protect from rough terrain. Available in three different sizes from 85 litres up to a massive 140 litres, this is a serious gear-hauler. It’s built from tough and waterproof PU-coated polyester, with a chunky waterproof TIZIP zipper. It can be wheeled or carried, and even works as a backpack by using the padded handles as shoulder straps. Internal straps compress the volume, and the bag can even be secured with a travel padlock through a wire loop at the zipper.

Life in the great outdoors is unpredictable, which is why it’s wise to be prepared. Basically, if your adventure goes from dry to downpour, you want your kit to stay safe and protected. Ortlieb’s durable, waterproof bike bags and backpacks are the ideal solution.
The first Ortlieb bag was invented in Germany in 1981, after founder Hartmut Ortlieb got back from a very wet bikepacking adventure in (you guessed it) Southern England. Inspired by tarpaulins he’d seen lashed on the truck beds of lorries, he fashioned a pair of bike panniers from red truck tarp, which he stitched at home on his mother’s sewing machine.
A year later he founded his own company, buoyed by early success and positive feedback from friends. In the following years, young Hartmut came up with a series of innovations that would define the modern drybag, using high frequency welded seams and roll-top closures. He even developed the first self-locking mounting system to attach panniers to bike frames.
Today, Ortlieb remains the first and most trusted choice for adventures and expeditions on land or sea – a brand name synonymous with waterproof protection and super-tough, outdoor-ready gear.
