CUSTOMER Reviews

Explorer Duffel ESB

Fantastic Bag

I delayed my review on this product as I wanted to get some use out of it prior to sharing my experience with it.

When I ordered my carry on ESB it was delayed due to the need to “build it.” During that process they made a mistake and swapped the end sections, meaning that the zipper end and handle ends were swapped. After using it on multiple flights, I can attest that having the handle above the ring for the back straps is a better design than what was originally planned. It allows me to quickly swap from back wear to holding it vertically by the end handle for walking down crowded flight aisles. A brilliant mistake that should be applied to future products.

Old World Heirloom Craftsmanship

When I received the Exploere Duffel Bag, the Fight Bag and Deluxe Travel Kit, I was amazed the quality of design, materials and Craftsmanship in the beautiful and timeless travel bags. They will serve me well and with style as my carry on luggage wherever I find myself in the world. Thank you FrostRiver for keeping old school quality and values alive.

Good stuff

Firstly, I'm glad to support American products made by American workers. Initial impressions on the products ordered, everything smells fantastic coming out of the box. The chaps are comfortable and adjustable for length. Already tried out the pack and aside from slight pressure on the back where the shoulder straps connect to the pack, very comfortable with a full load. Plenty of space to fit everything needed for excursions. So far very satisfied with the products ordered.
