Duffle Bag

This is such a funky bag! I am always keeping my eye's open for bags to use when traveling. I seem to always get to a point were my bags refuse to contain another thing, and I have to get out a wal-mart bag to throw the rest of the stuff in (though some people I know, might say I just need to leave more stuff at home).
One thing about buying traveling bags from thrift stores is that most of them have had a lot of wear and tear. About a month ago I came across these two matching suitcases, covered with a large blue and purple floral print. Looked like they came right out of the '60s. I was so excited when they first caught my eye! But as soon as I got them into my hands I knew that I couldn't buy them. They were in terrible shape. It was so disappointing.
Regardless! I love this bag! And I always wondered why they called them duffle bags.

this made me laugh. imagine--a duffle bag with "duffle" written all over it! i really don't know what where the word duffle comes from, though. how strange!
