Kiva Designs Big Mouth Duffel Bag - Carry-On

Bought this along with Kiva's little big mouth duffel to replace a 10 year old Eagle Creek bag that was well used and much loved. The Kiva big mouth is well constructed with quality materials. This duffel is so roomy and the bag opens up in such a way that contents can be found easily since the walls are a silver colored vinyl. The shoe pocket easily holds 2 pairs of size 8 mens shoes. Best of all, the bag is padded on the bottom and 2 of the 4 sides, as well as the flat side pocket. The only drawback to either bag is the lack of a side mesh/ditty pocket for a water bottle, umbrella or trail snack, but the designers thoughtfully included mesh pockets in the interior. All in all, an excellent bag justifying its suggested retail price, so it is a steal here at STP.
