Built In-House, End to End

From design to dispatch, this bag is made entirely in-house by our skilled makers using single-origin materials. We control every stitch and rivet—ensuring each bag is fairly made, tightly inspected, and ready for decades of travel.

Reinforced Leather Handles

Long full-grain leather handles are stitched and anchored deep into the bag’s side and base. Backed with cotton twill and reinforced with a stress guard and brass Chicago screws, they’re designed to handle serious weight. A leather handle tidy keeps them bundled for easy carry.

Heritage-Grade Natural Materials

We craft bags from heavyweight beeswaxed canvas, genuine brass, and premium full-grain leather, delivering authentic quality, sustainability, and enduring style that matures beautifully rather than deteriorating.

Overbuilt for Real Loadouts

From 2mm leather lash squares to scuff guards and MOLLE loops, every inch of the Expedition Duffle is purpose-driven. Twin external pockets on each side, internal organisation, and military-inspired lash points support demanding carry needs and tactical expansion.

I’ve bought several pieces from JS over the last 10 years and I’ve travelled around Australia on various modes of transportation with them, and they never disappoint. Solid as construction that ages beautifully and functional design and this bag is no different.

Waxable & Maintainable

Crafted from heavyweight beeswaxed canvas, the Expedition shrugs off rain and grime while staying breathable. Scuffs and patina only add to its rugged character—and with a re-wax using our Fabric Wax, you can refresh its protection anytime.

Dual-Mode Carry Capacity

Unrolled, the bag transforms into a high-volume hauler. Rolled down and cinched with the leather strap and brass buckle system, it becomes a compact weekender. This flexible silhouette adapts to both extended trips and light loads—always tidy, never floppy.

Nice bag! The pictures don’t match the colours on the website though. Jungle arrived more as as a brown than a green colour.

Hey mate, thanks for your feedback! Sorry about the colour - we'll look into it and make sure the website photos are more accurate.

The large 2 bags in 1design

Expedition Waxed Canvas Duffel Bag.
It has taken me a while to get my head around this duffel. I new it was large from the specs L60cm x W25cm x H47cm it was received it flat packed so when I opened it, it was in a tote shape (I was expecting on my head it look like duffel shape) and it was enormous so much bigger than I expected. I measured the length to be of 63.5cm is at the bottom and then increasing to 82.5cm as it goes up to the top. I felt it was too big & cumbersome for me.
The 16oz waxed is bullet proof (its built like a tank literally). Attempting to cinching it down to a balanced looking duffel shape it was not that compliant with me as when new as it is so stiff, but the waxed canvas by nature will soften with use and hold a memory of how your shaping it.
I learned if packed items vertically in the tote format it maintains slimmer profile for it's various carry modes e.g. hand held, sling or cross body mode against my body as opposed to packing flat as you would in duffel style. Your actually geting 2 bags in 1 and for me once getting over the initial shock of being bigger than I expected as in too big (I'm glade I gave it a bit more time rather returning it) as I'm now enjoying the enormous versatile capacity it offers.

Highly recommend

Have recently purchased the Expedition Waxed Canvas Duffel Bag, it was a natural progression for me, having previously purchased the Drifter Poncho with Hood and a Commodore Messenger Bag.

I love my Jack Stillman products, the quality is second to none and they are designed to last for ever. I highly recommend Jack Stillman products, you won’t be disappointed.

Jack Stillman is quality

From the awesome service in the Fremantle shop to the perfection of the quality. Jack Stillman is my favourite gear. I now own shirts, poncho and the bag. I love it all.

The cologne is sensational also.

Very versatile - Travel, bike adventure

Fantastic quality, gets even better with use. Stiff at first then softens making easier to fold. I fully expanded it holds a huge amount. I have used for travel (bag) equivalent of of my medium suitcase. On my bike, matches my Hepco and Becker saddle bags. Leather tabs on bottom make it easy to attach to bike.

Uncluttered

This bag is the perfect addition for someone who doesn’t want to be cluttered by everyday things any more. If it doesn’t fit in this bag, it’s not needed. But remember, there’s a lot that fits in this bag.

Thanks Steve! Great perspective.

Month long trip - no problem

Staff are always lovely when you rock up to their store.
I purchased this bag for a month long trip to Italy. A little nervous it wouldn’t fit all my clothes. I have room to spare!

I’ll write an update after my trip to report on how it coped with all the planes, trains & automobiles 🤣😎

Thanks Suzanne! Enjoy your trip. :)

Built to last oozing with style

I’ve bought several pieces from JS over the last 10 years and I’ve travelled around Australia on various modes of transportation with them, and they never disappoint. Solid as construction that ages beautifully and functional design and this bag is no different. The only criticism is that the leather handgrip could have the press studs swapped out as they tend to pop open when carrying buy the handles , other than that you won’t get a more solid and cool vintage looking bag 🙏💖

Exceeded expectations

This was my first JS purchase.

I love gear that is made to last, especially when they get better with age. I had some mild concerns about the quality of materials and manufacturing, however I was very impressed when it arrived. Really nice packaging as well.

The bag has everything I wanted and I will be more than happy to strap it to my beloved Indian Chief Motorcycle for solo camping trips. As good if not better than offerings from Filson and Fjallraven of which I have used in the past.

I only took one star off (tried to only take half a star off) as I would have liked a slightly heavier leather, but considering the price point this is really being picky. The leather is very good though.

Overall, this is a great bag with everything one could want. I will definitely be buying more Jack Stillman gear.

Expedition Waxed Canvas Duffel Bag

Excellent quality ,This bag is well thought out & will last for years . Great value for the money . I like the rugged look . Has a huge capacity for those longer trips, yet has the ability , using the short strap , to snug down to a smaller size for a weekend away . The lining is nice & the internal pockets to tuck away any smaller items , phone charger etc is very handy . I throughly recommend this bag . The company is great to deal with & postage was very fast . Thank you to the Jack Stillman team ! Chris

Excellent quality and attractive design

I have had my eye on this duffel for a while now as I am an owner of a cross body sling bag that has served me well daily for years and shows very little sign of wear.
I did my first trip to Melbourne from Cairns recently and was so impressed with the volume the bag can hold. It even holds my trigger point massager that I usually have to leave behind.
obviously such a big duffel can be difficult to carry when it is full. Not so as I bought a collapsible hand trolley that carries it easily and also fits inside it for plane journeys.
So happy i finally own one.
Now…. what else do I need from Jack Stillman?

It all fitted!

For our recent Xmas sojourn I really did only need 1 bag! Usually I need several to hold clothes, shoes, electronic gear and a book or 2! That lalways eads to solid ribbing from my partner about “all my stuff” Not this year - not a comment from her! Thanks Jack Stillman - a great looking, solid and well made versatile bag it is!
