My main goal was to design a bag as classic and handsome as a traditional duffle on the outside and as smart and functional of a suitcase in the inside
New York, NY (PRWEB) January 27, 2016
The Duffle Suitcase by Wool & Oak, the most organized way to travel, has more than doubled its initial goal of $75,000 on Kickstarter early in the campaign.
The Duffle Suitcase has raised more than $155,000 in pre-orders on Kickstarter from over 500 backers since launching on January 11, 2016.

“We set out to design a bag that would allow a traveler to quickly grab what they need without having to rifle through the black hole that most travel bags have a tendency to turn into,” added Webster. “My main goal was to design a bag as classic and handsome as a traditional duffle on the outside and as smart and functional of a suitcase in the inside.”
