Both spellings are acceptable, it turns out, but duffle is a British corruption of our duffel, so pack up your troubles in your old kit bag and spell it “duffel” like an American. Our duffel is red polyester with black handles and an adjustable and removable black shoulder strap. Measures 18” long x an 11” dia cylinder, and has black canvas strap handles on both ends for your hanging and toting convenience. Everybody needs a good duffel, even the Brits.

Surplus! These (former) promo items are 5" tall golf bags, mostly clear with primary color accents. Best of all? No logos! Golfers use them to store (3) balls. There’s also an outside pocket for pencils, tees and ball makers, and that pocket is zippered just like the main compartment is. Each bag has a plastic snap clip so you can hang it from something—like an actual golf bag. But you don’t have to use it for golf. In assorted primary colors. Ours samples were blue and green, but there may be others and we'll pick the best color to match your golf cart.

They may move your cheese, but the rest of your lunch should be safe when you tote it in this insulated white bag with “HUMAN ORGAN FOR TRANSPLANT” printed on the side. Measures approx 9-1/2" wide x 7” tall x 6" deep with a padded handle and a zipper around three sides on the top. Has a small mesh pocket and organ-donor information card inside. Our favorite part? The bottom says “Warning; not for transporting human organs” because you can't be too careful.

Laundry stinks. It’s also a job we dislike. But back to that stench. This white mesh bag, approx 18" x 12", has a way of dispersing the stinkiness of our laundry, which makes the whole job less stinky in more ways than one. Has a drawstring with a ball stopper. Made of polyester, which means it’s strong enough to hold a big load of clothing or beach toys, shoes (which can also be stinky in our experience), or sports equipment.

In soft poly-foam and a pretty powder blue color, we think this case was made for standard smart phones, although goodness knows you could keep any number of things in it. (Badness probably knows that, too.) Measuring 6” x 3-1/2” x approx 3/8”, it has a slot with black piping 1-1/2” from the top, and a small tab at the top corner with a removable, silver carabiner on it.

Here’s a good-looking 24” x 12” duffle bag that you’ll won’t have to search hard for on the baggage carousel. Yes, it’s black, in resilient unwashed cotton canvas, but the stiches are orange, and so is the military-esque printing on one side. Has a nice 5” x 1” bright yellow-gold nylon-webbing zipper-pull on top, too. Shoulder strap is adjustable and detachable, and there’s a grab/carry strap on one end. Twin carry handles are stitched around the circumference of the bag, which has (2) zippered pockets on the sides and (1) on the end. Main compartment has double zippers. It’s a sturdy bag that stands out.

This sturdy messenger bag from Wanderer Tech is made of durable black 1680 denier ballistic nylon with royal blue piping. Measures approx 15" x 12" x 3" when empty, but is eminently stuffable. Has an adjustable padded shoulder strap, front flap with hookenlooper closures, zipper compartment on the flap, (2) side mesh pockets, pen slots and a pocket inside, along with a 15” a 10-1/2” removable, padded laptop sleeve.

Not even Todd Rundgren fans will want to bang on this drum, but it’ll keep your food and drinks cool, though, because it’s a foam-insulated soft bag cooler with a double-zippered main compartment approx 11-1/2” dia, (2) deep, double-zippered side pockets with netting-sleeves, and (1) tighter zippered compartment on the front. Stands about 12” tall and 16” wide overall, and comes with a padded, adjustable shoulder strap. We tested it for leakage and it held water, unlike most of our arguments. In festive red with black accents.

Call it the bag of a lesser messenger. This dark olive Extreme Pak™ tote looks like a mini-backpack but has a shoulder strap plus a pair of handles. Measures approx 11-1/2" tall x 8-1/2" wide x 6" deep front to back, it's got a big inside zippered compartment, a smaller zippered pouch on the bottom, a pair of hook-and-loop closed pockets on the top, plus a plethora (that'd be 10) of band loops to hang stuff off. Mfg suggested retail is over $30. Just saying.

This gusseted, white plastic tote bag measures 17" x 16" x 4” with handles approx 12” long and has, for reasons unclear, a front that mimics a doctor's jacket with a stethoscope hanging around the neck of the bag. Ignore the faux medical-ness and just treat it like any other handy, waterproof plastic tote at a ridiculously low price. Or, go around telling people you’re in med school.
