The Benefits of Using Waterproof Duffle Bags

Duffle bags have long been a favorite for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts due to their versatility and spacious design. However, when it comes to durability and protection, waterproof duffle bags, especially those made from waxed canvas, stand out. In this article, we’ll delve into the numerous benefits of using waterproof duffle bags and why they are a must-have for anyone seeking reliability and style.

Why Choose a Waterproof Duffle Bag?

Waterproof duffle bags offer several advantages over their non-waterproof counterparts. Here are some of the key benefits:

1. Protection from the Elements

The primary benefit of a waterproof duffle bag is its ability to protect your belongings from rain, snow, and moisture. Whether you’re caught in a sudden downpour, crossing a river, or dealing with high humidity, a waterproof duffle bag ensures that your clothes, electronics, and other essentials remain dry.

2. Durability

Waterproof duffle bags, particularly those made from waxed canvas, are incredibly durable. Waxed canvas is a robust material that can withstand harsh conditions and rough handling. It’s resistant to abrasions, punctures, and tears, making it ideal for outdoor adventures and frequent travel.

3. Versatility

A waterproof duffle bag is versatile enough to be used in various settings, from weekend getaways to gym visits, camping trips, and daily commutes. Its adaptability makes it a practical choice for those who need a reliable bag for multiple purposes.

4. Easy Maintenance

Maintaining a waterproof duffle bag is straightforward. Waxed canvas bags can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth and occasionally re-waxed to maintain their water-resistant properties. This ease of maintenance ensures that your bag remains in excellent condition for years.

Benefits of Waxed Canvas Waterproof Duffle Bags

Waxed canvas waterproof duffle bags offer specific advantages that make them a superior choice:

1. Aesthetic Appeal

Waxed canvas has a timeless, rugged look that combines vintage charm with modern functionality. Over time, it develops a unique patina that enhances its character, making each bag truly one-of-a-kind.

2. Eco-Friendly

Waxed canvas is an environmentally friendly material. It’s made from natural fibers coated with wax, which means it doesn’t involve the use of harmful chemicals. This makes it a sustainable option for eco-conscious consumers.

3. Breathability

Unlike many synthetic materials, waxed canvas is breathable. This means it can repel water while allowing moisture from inside the bag to escape, preventing the buildup of mold and unpleasant odors.

4. Customizable

Waxed canvas bags can be easily re-waxed to enhance their water resistance. This allows users to maintain and even improve the bag’s protective qualities over time, ensuring it remains functional and effective.

Tips for Maintaining Your Waxed Canvas Waterproof Duffle Bag

To ensure your waxed canvas waterproof duffle bag lasts as long as possible, follow these maintenance tips:

1. Regular Cleaning

Wipe your bag with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh detergents or machine washing, as these can strip the wax coating and compromise the bag’s waterproof properties.

2. Re-Waxing

Periodically re-wax your bag to maintain its water resistance. Use a quality canvas wax and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the best results. This will keep your bag looking good and functioning well.

3. Proper Storage

Store your bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This helps prevent the material from drying out or becoming discolored. Stuff the bag with soft materials to help it retain its shape when not in use.

FAQs

Q: Are all waterproof duffle bags made from waxed canvas? A: No, waterproof duffle bags can be made from various materials, including nylon, polyester, and PVC. Waxed canvas is a popular choice due to its durability and eco-friendly properties.

Q: How often should I re-wax my waxed canvas duffle bag? A: It depends on how frequently you use the bag and the conditions it’s exposed to. Generally, re-waxing once or twice a year is sufficient to maintain its water resistance.

Q: Can I machine wash my waxed canvas duffle bag? A: No, machine washing can remove the wax coating and damage the fabric. It’s best to clean your bag with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.

Q: What makes waxed canvas eco-friendly? A: Waxed canvas is made from natural cotton fibers coated with beeswax or other natural waxes. It’s biodegradable and doesn’t involve the use of harmful chemicals in its production.

Q: Are waxed canvas bags suitable for heavy rain? A: Yes, waxed canvas bags are highly water-resistant and can protect your belongings in heavy rain. However, prolonged exposure to water can eventually lead to seepage, so it’s best to avoid continuous downpours if possible.

Conclusion

Investing in a waxed canvas waterproof duffle bag offers numerous benefits, from protecting your belongings and providing durability to adding a touch of vintage charm to your travel gear. These bags are versatile, eco-friendly, and easy to maintain, making them an excellent choice for anyone looking for a reliable and stylish solution for their travel and daily needs.

Waterproof Gym Pink Duffle Bag for Women

[healthfitness10]

[the-cookie-of-doom]

There’s a set of familiar clothes waiting on the closed toilet when Porchay gets out of the shower, and WIK is nowhere to be seen. He dresses himself in the soft shirt and pants. Finds the bedroom empty but hears movement in the main area of the apartment. He takes his empty glass off the nightstand and ventures out to find WIK. 

He’s in the kitchen making dinner. Porchay’s phone, which had been in his duffle bag with his clothes, sits innocently on the island. 

“How do you feel?” WIK asks, glancing up at him from where he’s chopping green onions. 

“Good,” Porchay answers. He’s still wearing the collar, as instructed. The silicone is waterproof so he doesn’t have to remove it to shower. It’s an unfamiliar weight around his neck that will take some getting used to. He fiddles with it under the weight of WIK’s stare, and wonders if he’s waiting for something else, something more. “Sir?” WIK smiles, and continues to stare. “Uh…”

“Are you okay?” WIK prompts him. “Any dizziness?”

“No?” Not anymore, at least. “I think I feel okay. It was… a lot.” Which is strange to say out loud, because WIK hardly touched him. “But I’m okay now.” 

“Good.” WIK points at a chair with the point of his knife. “Sit.” 

Porchay does. 

“You can call your brother, and anyone else who might come looking for you. Don’t tell anyone where you are. Don’t use my name.” 

“Yes, sir.” 

Porchay does call, but it predictably goes to voicemail. He texts his brother instead, a twist of bitterness in his chest making him echo the same sentiment that Porsche left him with weeks ago. Thinks that the text isn’t necessary. His brother won’t be home to worry about him. He doesn’t tell WIK, though. 

To: Porsche Hia! I won’t be home for a while, I got a new job! I’ll be really busy though, and I don’t have good reception, so I probably won’t be able to answer my phone much. Don’t worry about me, though, I’m safe!Miss you, hia

After sending the messages, Porchay waits for them all to go through, then powers down his phone. He lays it face down, an arm’s length away. 

Porchay doesn’t know what to do with himself, now. He sits quietly while WIK cooks. Looks around the apartment, the parts of it can see from his seat, and picks at his nails. Fiddles with the collar around his neck. Listens to vegetables sizzle in a pan on the stove, the steady chop-chop-chop of WIK’s knife. 

WIK keeps glancing at him, half of a smile ticking up the corner of his mouth. 

“You can speak,” he says eventually. 

“Oh.” Porchay didn’t know if he was supposed to wait until he’s spoken to. He discovers he has no idea what to say. Settles on a safe subject, asking, “What are you making?” 

“Fried rice and shrimp,” WIK answers. 

“It smells good.” 

“Mhm.” 

The collar has several rings stitched into it, lying flat against the silicone. Porchay hooks his fingers through the one in the center and pulls on it, imagines WIK clipping a leash to him. Imagines his hands bound to his own throat with chains. 

“If you have any questions, now is the time to ask.”

“Am I allowed to?”

“Mhm.” Duh, WIK just told him he was. “I might not answer everything.” 

“Okay.” Porchay thinks of what he wants to know. He had a million questions going through his head, earlier, but can’t seem to find any of them. “Why did you pick me?”

“Interesting question.” 

WIK doesn’t say anything else. 

Porchay tries not to be disappointed. 

WIK isn’t ignoring him, though, he’s only working over it in his head, considering his answer. Porchay appreciates that he’s putting thought into it, rather than giving him whatever placation comes to mind first. 

“My life doesn’t allow for casual dating,” WIK answers. “I don’t have the time or patience. For the kinds of things I want to do to a person… This is easier.” 

“But why me?”

“You’re attractive. Inexperienced but not unfamiliar with the scene—I won’t have to train any bad habits out of you, but I won’t have to worry about scaring you off, either. Will I?”

“You won’t,” Porchay confirms. WIK clearly outlined every detail of his expectations. Porchay wouldn’t say he wasn’t afraid of some of them, but he knows he can handle it. He wants to try. 

“And I could tell from the moment I meant you that you were meant for this kind of life.” 

Porchay doesn’t know what to think about that answer. He doesn’t think it’s wrong, but…

“Earlier, I felt like…” He doesn’t know. He felt warm and loose in his skin. His mind drifted away from his body, leaving him with nothing but sensation, no thought. 

WIK grins like he’s been waiting for him to ask this entire time. Maybe he was. Most likely. 

“Do you know what subspace is?” he asks. Porchay nods. “You weren’t there, yet. It’ll take more than that. But you submit very well.” WIK stalks him around the island, his voice dripping honey, the cooking forgotten. He hooks a finger through the ring at Porchay’s throat and draws him in. “It feels nice, doesn’t it, letting someone else take control.” 

Porchay swallows. “Yes.” 

WIK leans in, almost close enough to kiss. Whispers, “That’s why I chose you.” 

And then he’s gone again, and Porchay’s heart is beating in his throat. 

He doesn’t ask anymore questions. 

WIK finishes cooking, sets a plate in front of him, refills his water and tells him to drink it all, which Porchay does without question. WIK’s hand glides over the back of his neck. Positive reinforcement. 

It’s going to be a very interesting year.

𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐞 ☆

• He's a cocky little shit

• Good hearted in nature, but it doesn't help that fucking with Ryan is one of his favorite past times

• Shane is a bit wild and carefree, displayed by his constantly messy hair

• Doesn't belive in any of Ryan's theories—aliens, ghosts, demons—but finds them entertaining. Which naturally drives the other man crazy with frustration

• He has a small stubble that never seems to go away no matter what

• Needs reading glasses to help him see small print, like on maps and such, but finds the damn things troublesome

• Taller, so he has the upper hand on Ryan durring one of their quote unquote friendly chases on foot

• Pretty friendly with the reader, if not constantly bantering with them

• Calls Ryan things like short stack, beef boy—don't ask about the beef incident of '17—and of course, Bergara

• Has a duffle bag with him all the time to carry his stuff! Like a small collapsible tent and miniature pots and pans for camping out on long expeditions. The pack holds some other odd items in it however, ranging from a bag of jellybeans to hotdogs

𝐑𝐲𝐚𝐧 ☆

• A passionate nerd

• Very hardworking, just like Shane, in his line of work. It can prove to be his downfall however

• Gets frazzled and or flustered easily. More often than not has to be calmed down by the reader so he can get his head back on straight

• Well renowned archeologist in his field! Unlike Shane, who's known as sort of the jack of all trades that will get your job done in an unorthodox manor

• Absolutely calls Shane things like long legs. Or just uses his last name if he's irritated. They're both funny like that

• Ryan goes on various journeys and quests that the museum he works for asks him to—but he only goes if he can bring the reader with him. Otherwise it's a no go

• Wears an Indiana Jones type hat to keep his curly hair under control, but at this point it's just sort of become a permanent addition to his outfit

• Carries a reinforced messenger bag to hold maps, information, and emergency supplies on trips

• Banking off the Indiana Jones movies, he's deathly afraid of bears. Just like how Indiana was of snakes in the movies. And once Shane accidently finds out via reader, he never let's him live that down

• Scars line his jaw and upper arms from the many risky escapades he's been on while collecting artifacts over the years. Each one is relatively small but they tell a story

𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫 ☆

• They're technically Ryan's long time assistsnt in the feild. They got their footing in the archeology buisness through him. But if you asked the either of the diggers, both would attest that they're equals

• Carries around a supply backpack with plenty of materials when they and Ryan go on assignments together. It's a lot like his messenger bag, just with more space and waterproof tendencies

• Wears one of those masks that hang around their neck all the time. Like the cowboys in old westerns! Secretly finds it cool and hopes other do as well

• The reader is more ten times more practical than Shane or Ryan. Will look for a set of stars to climb or a bridge instead of taking a rope and swinging across a chasm. Presents for some very funny situations

• They're scatter brained. Talks a lot and accidently let's things slip, like Ryan's fear of bears to Shane, as well as misplaces things, etc etc

• Sort of the bridge between Shane and Ryan's weird frenemy relationship. Keeps them both under control. Both Shane's sparky attitude, and Ryan's own his sarcastic one

If montell fish songs were angst stories: Talk 2 me

The heaviness in my chest grew progressively worse with every passing second. Sascha wasn't home yet, but he said he'd be here over two hours ago. I ran my hand over his pillow, longingly.

It was no secret that Sascha's and my relationship was not in a good place. We could barely sit together for an hour without fighting over something stupid, ranging from my insecurities to his jealousy and possessiveness. We couldn't agree on anything anymore, always having conflicting views and opinions and it was straining our relationship. It was so bad that we could go on for days without speaking to each other. In the four years we'd been together, this had never happened. Of course we fought like any normal couple, but it wasn't as bad as tonight.

He took me to the Opera for a show and we stayed for the subsequent cocktail party. It was at the party that someone approached us and asked to talk to him. I didn't mind, so I let her. It was only a few moments later that I realized that the person was his ex girlfriend. My head snapped in the direction of where they went and I curtly excused myself from the circle of people Sascha and I were talking to.

A dull ache developed in my chest with every step I took towards the corridor they ran off to. I found Alex and the girl- alone- and speaking in hushed tones. Her hands were on his chest and around his shoulders and his hands were idly at his sides.

Blinded by my anger, I fled from there. I heard Sascha call after me but i just kept moving. The lights were brighter, the sounds were louder and the pain was more intense. I felt like dying. I made my way out of the opera house and onto the pavement. I placed a hand over my chests the anger gave way to bone crushing pain. I heaved a sob before covering my mouth.

"Meine Liebe," I hear Sascha say as I feel his hands wrap around my shoulders.

I pull away and wipe my tears frantically, thanking God for waterproof makeup.

"I'm fine, in sorry," I say, my voice still thick with tears.

"You're not okay, Ma-"

"I said I'm fine. Let's go back. Rafa and the others will be looking for us," I say, getting ready to go back.

"For God's sake, Max, do something. React. Scream. Cry, anything. I'm tired of you being so goddamn passive!" He shouts. I turn to face him slowly, trying to control the simmering anger I feel.

"What exactly do you want me to do, Alex? How do you want me to react? For fucks sake, I'm tired, okay? There, I said it! I hate that your Goddamn ex is ruining everything we've built and I can't do anything because you're letting her-"

"Dont you fucking assume I'm cheating on you, Maxine."

"How am I not to assume, Alex? You said you broke up with her long ago but why is she here? What was she going to do to you? What were you about to let her do to you?"

" Fuck, Max, it's not even like that. Four years we've been together! You know me better than anyone else and you know I'd never do that to you. I'd never let it go there."

" Well, lately I don't know the man I've been laying next to at night."

"Thats rich, considering I've had to force you to open up to me."

I scoff and turn around, heading back to the party. I find Rafa and tell him I'm leaving. Alexander materializes besides me and his hand is on the small of my back. To them, we are a happy couple.

It cannot change.

The drive home is awkward and painfully silent. I run through the argument in my head and regret immediately seizes me. I want to apologize because, ultimately, I'm the one in the wrong. I never open up to him and tell him what's on my mind and in my heart.

He's frustrated, and rightfully so.

Back at our apartment, he changes into his tennis clothes, grabs his duffle bag and tells me he'll be home in an hour.

I roll over to his side of the bed and inhale. It's been a little over four hours since he left. My eyes fill with tears and I feel sincere remorse for how I've been treating him.

My own issues and insecurities shouldn't interfere with our relationship. I simply love him too much to lose him over something this trivial.

I pretended to be asleep while cuddling his pillow when he finally arrived minutes later. I heard him shower and move around the apartment before joining me in bed.

"I wish you could talk to me, like you used to. I love you, Max," he says before kissing my forehead and falling asleep besides me.
