DAKINE Duffel Bags

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do Dakine duffel sizes compare and which capacity should I choose?

  Dakine sizes span compact to high-capacity: 31–35L suits gym use or light weekend trips, 50L is a versatile midsize travel bag, and 70L handles longer trips or extra gear. Choose the 125L Torque if you need helmet- and boot-specific storage for sports like motocross or ski trips, and pick the 60L Cyclone for waterproof wet/dry needs.
• What materials and construction make Dakine duffels durable and packable?

  Most EQ-style Dakine duffels use lightweight, durable recycled polyester (some versions are ~95% recycled polyester) and polyester linings, while select models use 600D polyester ripstop for added abrasion resistance. EQ models pack into their own end pocket for compact storage, and the Cyclone uses waterproof welded construction and a rolltop closure for wet environments.
• How does the Cyclone 60L differ from the standard EQ duffel?

  The Cyclone 60L is built as a waterproof wet/dry duffel with welded seams and a rolltop closure to keep contents dry, whereas EQ models prioritize lightweight packability with a U-shaped full-length opening and the ability to compress into an end pocket. Cyclone focuses on waterproof protection and straightforward access, while EQ models emphasize low weight and full-visibility access for general travel and gym use.
• Do Dakine duffels have features for helmets, boots, and goggles?

  Yes, the Torque 125L is purpose-built for helmet-heavy sports and includes a helmet pocket, goggle pocket, boot compartment, fleece-lined pockets, a removable changing mat, and big #10 YKK lockable zippers for secure access. Standard EQ models don’t usually have dedicated helmet compartments but offer roomy U-shaped openings and organized end pockets for general gear separation.
• What carrying and access features make Dakine duffels travel-friendly?

  Dakine duffels generally offer U-shaped full-length openings for easy packing, removable padded shoulder straps for comfortable carry, and lightweight construction (example weights: ~1.4 lbs for a 50L and ~1.7 lbs for a 70L on standard EQ models). Torque adds padded swivel-clip straps and specialized compartments, while many EQ bags pack into their end pocket for compact storage when empty.
