FAQs

What are the dimensions and volume of the Gilman Duffel Bag?

The bag measures 32.5cm x 53cm x 32.5cm and has a volume of 50 liters.

Is the bag suitable for carrying wet gear?

Yes, it features a zipped end-cap compartment specifically designed for separating wet clothes or gear.

Can I machine wash the duffel bag?

No, the bag should be spot cleaned only with a damp cloth. Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the fabric and water-resistant coatings.

What materials is the bag made from?

The main body is made from 9000 FARP with a polyester-backed PU coating, and the base is 1200D polyester.

How much does the Gilman Duffel Bag weigh?

The bag weighs approximately 1230 grams.

Are the shoulder straps removable?

Yes, the shoulder straps are detachable and adjustable.

What is the purpose of the compression straps?

The four compression straps help to secure the contents of the bag and reduce its overall volume when not fully packed.

Troubleshooting

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently work the zipper back and forth. You can apply a small amount of wax or a specialized zipper lubricant if needed, but avoid over-application.

Bag feels heavy or cumbersome.

Utilize the compression straps to reduce the bag's profile. Distribute weight evenly within the main compartment. If possible, remove non-essential items.

Water resistance seems diminished.

The DWR finish may wear over time. Consider reapplying a water-repellent treatment suitable for polyester fabrics. Ensure all zippers are fully closed to maintain maximum protection.
