DUPLEX Bag Filter

The DUPLEX bag filter truly redefines the concept of an "expandable bag"! Thanks to its unique, transformable design, the DUPLEX can go from compact to spacious in just 5 seconds, meeting a variety of needs. Sometimes you need a lightweight shoulder bag, sometimes a backpack, and on special occasions, a travel bag. The DUPLEX is designed to meet these needs. Its clever design allows you to fold and store it, instantly transforming it into a different bag. This means you get two distinct functions in one bag; whatever your needs, the DUPLEX's multifunctional design will meet them.
The DUPLEX series includes two bags that can be converted into four different bags. The DUPLEX ASCENT is a waist pack (or crossbody bag) that folds into a full-size backpack; the DUPLEX ROAM is a compact shoulder bag that expands to four times its original size, transforming into a large travel bag that can hold all your essentials. Designed for free-spirited, versatile, and energetic travelers, this series meets a wide range of needs, from activity-specific essentials to a variety of luggage for longer trips. While both bags share the same expandability-focused design philosophy, they are tailored to different travelers. The DUPLEX ASCENT is a waist pack ideal for daily commuting and everyday carry. It offers ample space for most essentials and can be worn at the waist, across the shoulder, or crossbody for comfort and convenience. This bag has a 5-liter capacity, internal and external compartments, and an adjustable waist strap. One of the ASCENT backpack's compartments houses a foldable backpack, which, when unfolded, offers an impressive 23.5 liters of total capacity. This backpack is large enough to fit your 13-inch laptop and other essentials, and it's equipped with all the essentials, including two water bottle pockets, multiple zippered compartments, adjustable shoulder straps, breathable mesh fabric with a soft lining, and a convenient sunglasses loop.
The DUPLEX ROAM, on the other hand, is designed for travel, fitness, training, or sports. Its mini version is a compact shoulder bag with a 3-liter capacity, perfect for storing sunglasses, headphones, and other everyday essentials. Furthermore, with a simple zipper, the bag can be expanded fivefold, turning it into a 15-liter travel bag. The shoulder bag comes with an adjustable shoulder strap, while the travel bag features a shoulder strap and two convenient carrying handles. This travel bag is ideal for use at the gym or on the court, with multiple side compartments and a large central compartment for storing your gear, shoes, and other essentials. A four-sided mesh pocket is ideal for drying clothes, and the bag also has a pass-through handle for attaching to a suitcase in an emergency.
The secret of the DUPLEX ASCENT and ROAM lies in two things: construction and materials. Their unique foldable/flexible design is undoubtedly the key to their exquisite craftsmanship, which is complemented by the use of extremely lightweight and flexible materials, especially the black 200D ripstop nylon outer layer and the striking 68D ripstop nylon lining. In addition to flexibility and lightweight, the nylon fabric also boasts superior durability and waterproofness. Additionally, the backpacks feature a bright orange lining for easy storage in low-light conditions; breathable mesh fabric with a 3D geometric weave; comfortable, adjustable, padded shoulder straps; and two-way zippers with silicone pull tabs.
These convertible backpacks are the brainchild of Portland-based outdoor brand Afar & Away, which specializes in creating bags as versatile as their user. The DUPLEX backpack comes in two sizes, so you're sure to find the perfect fit. If you need more space, the pack can expand nearly five times, giving you the organized storage you've always dreamed of. The DUPLEX ASCENT is currently on sale as an early bird on Kickstarter for $60, while the more compact DUPLEX ROAM is available for just $40. The crowdfunding campaign ends soon, so grab one while supplies last!
Designed for modern travelers, outdoor enthusiasts, and urban explorers, the Duplex series of bags can transform in seconds.
The DUPLEX ASCENT waist pack can be worn as a belt or over the shoulder. It features a large storage compartment with multiple pockets, a key ring, and a front zippered pocket. In seconds, it transforms into a full-size backpack, instantly quadrupling its capacity and volume. Even in backpack mode, you can access the entire waist pack.
This DUPLEX ROAM shoulder bag features two easy-access exterior pockets and a spacious zippered interior compartment. The two-way adjustable, padded shoulder strap is made of breathable mesh for comfortable carrying. Unzip the hidden zipper at the bottom, and the bag instantly transforms into a travel bag, instantly increasing its volume by more than five times.
The waist pack offers ample storage for organized items, allowing it to be used as a backpack. The quick-release rings are ideal for hanging bike lights.
This waist belt features two-way adjustment for comfortable wearing. When not in use, the waist belt folds away conveniently. When used as a backpack, the waist belt helps reduce strain on your shoulders.
Multiple exterior four-sided elastic pockets enhance packing convenience. The backpack's spacious main compartment features dividers that can accommodate a 13-inch laptop. Two four-sided elastic water bottle pockets with drawstrings securely hold bottles of various sizes.

A double zippered top flap provides easy access to the main compartments of the shoulder bag. A four-sided elastic pocket with a drawstring holds a water bottle.
This travel bag features a large top zippered opening for easy access. You can also easily access and organize the contents of the shoulder bag.
