Duffle bags are both fashionable and functional. They can upgrade your travel aesthetic and also be your gym buddy when in need. Originally designed as a top-entry, cylindrical-shaped bag, today you can find canvas duffle bags in various shapes and sizes. Let’s take a closer look at the history of the duffle and how we can use them in our everyday lives.

Where Did They Originate From?
Duffle, a thick and coarse material, was originally produced in a small town in Belgium. Seamen often found it hard to protect their belongings from getting damp thus, bags were made from this coarse material to keep their possessions dry. The military duffle bag gained popularity with the Americans during World War I, as the utilitarian design of the bag could carry a heavy load of items. However, the bag was inconvenient to carry and many soldiers often left their army duffle bags behind in the trenches. By World War II, this problem had been solved; sturdier straps and a bigger size made the duffle bag not only practical but an attractive product for civilians.
