James Baroud Eco-Bag — The next generation of versatile overland bag
THE Eco-Bag James Baroud This is the versatile bivouac bag born from James Baroud's eco-responsible approach: recycled materials, Portuguese manufacturing, maximum durability. Generous volume (~40L), multiple pockets, waterproof roll-top closure + clip: this is the bag that adapts to all configurations — equipment bag, laundry bag, shopping bag, bag for a dismantled tent.
Made from recycled polyester canvas with a PVC coating, reinforced seams, a reinforced base, double handles, and a removable shoulder strap. You can set it down, carry it, or even strap it to the roof rack: it can take a beating. And when it comes to washing, the PVC coating wipes clean in a minute with a sponge. A must-have for anyone who wants a single bag for all their overland needs.
