Duffel Bag Thule Chasm 90L (Model 5596) – 90 L capacity, darkest blue, durable travel and sports bag

The Thule Chasm 90L is a 90-litre travel and sports duffel in darkest blue designed for robust transport of clothing and gear. The exterior and interior fabrics, webbings and mesh are made from recycled materials and the main compartment opens wide for easy packing and access. Reinforced grab handles and a padded bottom protect contents and make lifting in and out of trunks or roof boxes straightforward.

Advantages

The bag converts between a duffel and a backpack with tuck-away shoulder straps for flexible carry. Weather-resistant tarpaulin fabric helps protect items from the elements while external compression straps keep belongings secure in backpack mode. Internal mesh pockets and a large zippered mesh pocket provide basic organization and quick access to small essentials. A separate carry case doubles as an internal accessory pouch and lockable zipper pulls offer an option to deter theft.

Suitable for

• Multi-day travel where a large-capacity bag is needed
• Outdoor activities and weekend trips that require weather-resistant gear storage
• Gym, sports, or kit transport where easy packing and quick access are important

When it may not be suitable

This duffel is large and may be oversized for short daily commutes or situations that require a compact personal bag. It does not provide structured compartments for highly organized packing like some suitcase systems, so users who need rigid separation for many small items may prefer a different luggage type.

Key specifications

• Capacity: 90 litres
• Material: weather-resistant tarpaulin fabric; exterior and interior fabrics, webbings and mesh made from 100% recycled materials
• Carry modes: duffel and backpack (shoulder straps tuck away)

How to use

Open the oversized wide-mouth opening to pack clothing and larger items into the main compartment. Use internal mesh pockets and the large zippered mesh pocket for small essentials and quick-access items. When you need hands-free carry, deploy the backpack straps and tuck them away to convert back to duffel mode when not required. Secure contents with the external compression straps and lift using the oversized grab handles; use the padded bottom to protect items when the bag is set down.

What to consider before purchase

• Whether a 90-litre capacity matches your travel or storage needs
• Preference for structured suitcases versus a flexible duffel design
• Need for weather resistance and recycled-material construction
• Requirement for backpack carry versus duffel-only use

Usage recommendations

For balanced packing, place heavier items near the padded bottom and use the external compression straps to reduce shifting. Store small frequently used items in the large zippered mesh pocket for quick access. Tuck away shoulder straps when carrying as a duffel to avoid snagging.
