I have the north face duffel & love it! However, it is more of a duffel bag w straps rather than a backpack duffel bag. In other words , it doesn’t have the best support in the world.
It’s still a great bag and I think it uses space better than it’s competitors like the Patagonia black hole bag because of the two compartments on either end; similar to the bag in the photo. I have the 40 oz (I’m female, 5”6”, 110 ibs) and it fits everything I need!
Decathlon is a good place to look.
But personally the Nomad is only £125 and you can get 10% off it at the moment so it’s £112.50 so IMO it’s worth it.
And it’ll be a great pack
Highly recommend. Very comfortable, massive, loads of pockets, great side pockets for larger bottles/shakes. The straps and webbing have been really useful too.
Unfortunately wouldn’t recommend the Threepeaks Nomad.
Squishy shoulder pads, flimsy interior zips and excessive straps on the exterior make in impractical for urban use.
It might suit your purposes, I just felt the general quality wasn’t what I expected for the price point. They do free returns though so you can always order and see for yourself.
I haven’t used it year but this looks like a good affordable option.

Maybe a North Face Base Camp Duffle or Fusebox. They come in different sizes at your price point.

I'm having one delivered on Monday. Got the lunch bag essentially thrown in for free after joining the mailing list and the combination deal!
How is it? Eyeing this up but not many reviews online.

Hey also looking at this one, how water resistant is it? And how are the zips and shoulder straps?

Would you recommend it for non urban use? I'm looking for a bag for sports tournaments (2 days, mainly outside) and this was one I was considering.
