The 4×4 of rolling travel bags

There’s often rather a gap between the capabilities of your average wheely suitcase and the demands of adventure travel. Lucky, then, that the Osprey Transporter Wheeled Duffel is a cut above average. It boasts an extra-high-clearance chassis with 110mm sealed-bearing wheels that’ll help you tackle everything from cobblestones and gravel to mud and snow. Four padded grab handles make it easy to hoist from any angle, while there are six lash points in case you need to tie it onto a roof rack/canoe/camel etc. Access to the interior is via lockable zips with rain flap protection, and inside you’ve got compression straps and a large zipped mesh pocket to keep everything locked down and organised. What’s more, it’s constructed in Osprey’s innovative NanoTough high-tenacity nylon, with an industry-leading combo of light weight, durability and water-resistance. Available in a range of sizes, this 90-litre one is the mid-size version, with plenty of cargo space for big trips.
