No More Digging: RUX’s Duffel Box Opens Wide for Effortless Packing and Access

October 14, 2025

RUX’s third Kickstarter introduces a new era of structured, zipper-free duffel design.

Squamish, BC (October 14, 2025) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – RUX, the Squamish, BC-based innovator of rugged, integrated outdoor gear systems and storage, is returning to Kickstarter with the launch of the RUX Duffel Box. Blending the flexibility of a duffel with the structure and open access of a box, RUX’s new Duffel Box redefines how adventurers pack, haul, and organize their gear.

Breaking from decades of convention, RUX has completely reimagined the classic duffle bag, eliminating zippers and providing unprecedented organizational access. The Duffle Box features a patent-pending segmented roll-top closure that snaps into a rectangular box-opening for easy access and gear organization. The Duffle Box is built with weather-resistant materials and a PFAS-free, durable water-repellent coating to withstand rugged conditions while keeping items dry and protected. Duffle Box comes in two sizes and integrates seamlessly with RUX’s modular ecosystem of packing cubes, panels, and pockets for dialed organization.

The RUX Duffel Box comes in two sizes:

• Duffel Box 55L ($225)

Weekend warrior and carry-on champion. Ships March 2026

• Duffel Box 75L ($270)

Expedition-ready capacity for big hauls. Ships March 2026

“Duffels haven’t evolved in decades—and we were tired of digging through gear caves,” said RUX Co-Founder and Head Designer Tony Richardson. “The Duffel Box opens wide and stands upright like a cupboard, making it easy to see and grab your gear. It’s built to shape-shift for everything from carry-on travel to multi-day expeditions.”

The Duffle Box Kickstarter campaign will run from October 14 to November 4, offering early backers up to 33% off MSRP and exclusive bundles including RUX-compatible accessories.

RUX first pioneered wide-mouth packing five years ago with the RUX 70L, a category-creating, collapsible, modular gear box that raised over 2,200% of its crowdfunding goal and kicked off a global community of brand-loyal fans. The Duffel Box expands the RUX ecosystem as a mobile companion, redefining what a duffel can do.
