Start with how you will move the bag, not the liter count
The Uncharted Supply Co. x Half Face Blades Vault 65L Duffel is a limited-edition collaboration built around a waterproof shell and zippers. That single design choice tells you most of what you need to know about whether it fits your trips: it is aimed at wet, dusty, or exposed transport rather than a soft overnight bag you toss in a trunk.
The supplied record lists a 65L volume and a 100% waterproof construction with waterproof zippers. It does not list a weight, so if packed weight matters to you, that figure is not confirmed in the information available here. Plan around capacity and carry method first, then confirm weight separately before you commit.
What the Vault 65L is built from
-
Uncharted Supply Co. x Half Face Blades - The Vault 65L Duffel Bag: 840D TPU shell with one main airtight/waterproof zipper and one external pocket with a waterproof zipper. The material and zipper choice are the reason to consider this bag over a standard duffel: they support use in wet or dirty conditions where a conventional zip-top bag would let water in.

Uncharted Supply Co. x Half Face Blades - The Vault 65L Duffel Bag: 65L volume, with 2 internal pockets and 1 external pocket. The pockets give you a place to separate small tools and documents from bulk gear, which matters when you are carrying one large bag instead of several small ones.
The air valve is the feature that changes packing
The Vault includes an air valve that the supplied record says allows compression of lofty items such as puffy coats and blankets. It also doubles as a water spout if you use the bag to store or transport liquids. That is unusual for a duffel, and it is the detail most likely to decide whether this bag earns its place in your kit.
If you pack bulky insulation, the valve lets you squeeze air out and reduce the space the load takes up. If you carry liquids, the same valve gives you a controlled way to empty the bag. Neither use is a substitute for checking that the main zipper is fully closed, so treat the valve as a packing aid rather than a guarantee against every spill.
Carry options and how they fit different trips
The bag ships with two removable shoulder straps and a sternum strap, and the record notes multiple attachment points that let the straps accommodate different body sizes and attach tightly to a truck, sled, boat, or other recreational vehicle.
- Backpack mode for longer carries: The ergonomic shoulder straps and included sternum strap convert the duffel into a backpack. This is the setup to use when you are walking gear from a vehicle to a camp or dock rather than lifting the bag a few feet.
- Duffel mode for short transfers: The straps are removable, so you can strip the bag down when you only need to haul it between a truck bed and a boat. Fewer straps also means fewer things to snag.
- Strapped to a vehicle: The attachment points are designed to hold the bag tightly to a truck, sled, boat, or other recreational vehicle. That makes it a candidate for exposed transport, though you should confirm your own rack or tie-down setup fits before relying on it.
Size and fit: what 65L means in practice
At 65L, this is a large duffel for gear rather than a weekender for a couple of outfits. The supplied dimensions are 27.5" x 13.9" x 10". Those measurements describe the bag itself, not what it will fit into. Airline carry-on limits, vehicle compartments, and rack clearances vary, and the record does not confirm acceptance by any airline or specific vehicle.
Before you buy, measure the space where the bag will live: the floor of your truck, the tunnel of your sled, or the locker on your boat. Compare that space to the listed dimensions with some margin for straps and a full load. If the bag has to fit a tight compartment, the external pocket and attachment points add bulk beyond the bare shell.

When the Vault is the right duffel, and when it is not
This is a buying guide, so the honest answer is that the Vault suits some trips better than others. The comparison below uses only the supplied record.
- Choose the Vault if: You need a large duffel for gear that will be exposed to water, mud, or spray, you want the option to carry it as a backpack, and the air valve's compression or liquid-spout function is useful to you.
- Look elsewhere if: You need a lightweight bag for casual travel, you want a confirmed packed weight before buying, or you need assurance that the bag meets a specific airline's carry-on rules. None of those are confirmed by the supplied record.
- Consider the trade-off: A waterproof TPU shell and airtight zipper are built for protection, not for breathability or soft packing. If your gear goes in dry and stays dry, you are paying for protection you may not use.
A practical way to load it
The record supports a simple loading approach: use the two internal pockets for small tools and documents, use the external waterproof pocket for items you need to reach without opening the main compartment, and pack lofty items where the air valve can compress them. Keep liquids in a separate container even though the valve can act as a spout, because the record does not describe a divided liquid compartment.
Close the main airtight zipper fully before any wet or vehicle-mounted use. The record does not supply a care routine for the TPU shell or the zippers, so follow any instructions that come with the bag rather than assuming a cleaning method.
Price context and the limited-edition factor
The catalog lists the Vault 65L at USD 160.60 against a comparison price of USD 220.00. That is the only pricing information supplied, and prices change, so treat it as a snapshot rather than a permanent figure. The bag is described as a limited edition, which means availability may not last, but the record does not state how many were made or when the run ends.
Weigh the price against the features you will actually use: the waterproof shell and zippers, the air valve, and the backpack conversion. If two of those three matter to you, the Vault is a coherent choice for a large duffel for gear. If none do, a simpler bag will likely serve you better.
