Patagonia's rough and tough duffel comes in a few different sizes, and this is one of the larger versions. With a generous 70-litre capacity, it’ll swallow up everything you need for big trips in far-off places or activity holidays where you’re packing in a lot of kit. It's constructed in gnarly recycled polyester ripstop with an innovative recycled TPU-film laminate that'll shrug off scuffs, scrapes and heavy weather. Unusually, the Black Hole has a smart matte finish instead of the glossy truck-tarpaulin outer you get on most duffel bags, but the performance is right up there with the best of them. Not only that, but it's comfortable to carry too, with removable padded backpack straps and reinforced grab handles. A 3-sided top flap opens right up for easy loading, and there's a mesh pocket in the lid for smaller odds and ends. Oh, and did we mention it's packable too? That's right – when it's empty, you can stuff the whole 70-litre beast into its own side pocket for storage.
Patagonia is the brand that other gear companies want to be when they grow up. In 2022, the company's founder, Yvon Chouinard, famously gave the company to the planet. It’s now jointly controlled by a charitable trust and a not-for-profit dedicated to fighting the climate crisis, and all post-operating profits go to environmental causes.
But in some ways that’s the tip of the (melting) iceberg. For nearly half a century, Patagonia has been an experiment in responsible business. From the farms that grow their cotton to the factories that make their goods and everything in-between, they’ve tried incredibly hard to set the gold standard in terms of ethics, transparency and social responsibility. Not only that, but their gear is made to last – to take hard use and repairs, and to maintain its performance through thick and thin.
All of which is even more extraordinary when you consider that Yvon Chouinard started out blacksmithing climbing gear for his mates in his parents' backyard, using a forge and anvil that he bought from a junkyard.
At WildBounds we don’t usually tend to go for the big-name brands, but this was one we simply couldn’t resist. Quite apart from their amazing ethical and environmental credentials, they just make great gear. We’ve used it and loved it for years, and you will too.
