Finally, some smarty pants has come up with an indestructible travel bag.

They’ve coined it as perhaps the lovechild of Ironman & Bear Grylls – and we think they’re right.

 With Christmas just around the corner, this is one of our picks as the best pressie for that bestie, partner or colleague who leads a double life as a frequent traveller.

“A bag that needs no babying, the Tatonka Barrel travel bag is one of the toughest bags on the market,” the company claims.

“Chuck it, slide it, roll it or soak it! It doesn’t matter how bad you mistreat the Barrel, these bags are made to outlast – and they’re water-resistant! The popular classic from Tatonka, known for its durability and cool looks has just been revamped. It’s just become easier to handle, pack and customise.”

Tatonka says it’s now easier than ever to pack, with the main opening made larger. Additional handle options all throughout let you carry it as best suits you; over your shoulder with a single long strap; like a basket with two short centre straps; esky-like with rubber-grip handles on each end; or pull out the padded shoulder straps and wear it like a travel backpack. The bag is available in five colours, and now with a Textreme base colour that matches the tarpaulin. BARREL BAG L Yellow
