Why We Like The North Face Base Camp Rolling Thunder 28in Bag

The Base Camp Rolling Thunder 28in Bag is an extra-large travel companion built to fly to our most exciting destinations. This versatile addition to The North Face's Base Camp lineup takes the durability and organization features of the camp-and-climb duffels and invites them on our around-the-world adventures. The rolling design is airport- and city-friendly, but the PVC-coated Recycled Base Camp fabric is still way ready for the rock faces and campsites we'll stop at along our travels.

YES

Great piece of Gear, Wish they had figured out a way to have backpack straps on it but phenomenal nonetheless. Using air tight bags we were able to pack a family of 4 into this (Plus our carry on back packs) for a 5 night trip. 1 checked bag. I also like how once home i was able to just wipe down the bag to removal all of the dirt.

Well-made and Robust - Give's You that 'Adventurer's' Image!

Fresh back from a trip to Oceania with his luggage. The wheels and handle on it are absolute bomber, and I have no fears about them being damaged when airline personnel fling my luggage onto their ramps or carts - and that's always been a big concern with traditional suitcases. The looks are impressive, and the material is robust and dependable - particularly like the handle on the bottom to help me lift this bag into my car - every little bit helps!

Pleased

Pleased. Liked that it has separators for toiletries, shoes, clothing. Wheels make it easy. Handle is well crafted. Great investment! We have the smaller size too but this was great... especially if you tend to overpack.

Handle Broke - Warranty denied

I used this bag sparingly over the last few years. On an overseas trip, the internal plastic part in the telescoping handle broke and the handle came off. Real bummer for the rest of the trip. North Face denied the warranty claim although it was not abused. Beware.

Bought 1 Year ago and still going strong

The only downside to this bag is it's weight. Other than that it hit all my requirements (durable wheel system, water proof (for luggage), good zippers, rugged look, and compression straps.

I would not buy it again

I own three of these. They are well made but heavy and the bags weight is about 22 percent of the allowed baggage allowance of 50lbs per checked bag that most airlines follow. A buckle on one of my bags broke on its first airline trip. North Face customer service said North Face do not stock buckles and I would have to ship it to a repair centre. At the repair centre I was told they don't have the buckles and they can't get them from North Face. The repair centre would source new buckles and change the straps...what a waste of time and effort when the broken buckle can be slid off the strap to be replaced. Unfortunately, North Face doesn't stock it and the customer suffers. Terrible service and poor support for a new product. So much for being green and reducing pollution and carbon footprints North Face.
