Multipurpose Use: Perfect for storing tools, camping gear, scuba equipment, long camera lenses, or even as a handy carry-on bag.

Built to Last: Made with tough Ballistic Nylon, this bag can withstand the rigors of overland travel. The reinforced skid-plate bottom ensures durability for long-term use. 

Effortless Travel: Lightweight design with easy carry handles, detachable Claw nonslip adjustable shoulder strap and grab loops at both ends makes it simple to load and unload from any vehicle or overhead bin. The twin-turn locks on the double-zippered lid add extra security for your belongings.

Flying Boxcar trivia: the Flying Boxcar was named after the post-WW II transport aircraft, the Fairchild C-119 Flying Boxcar. The distinctive design of the Flying Boxcar featured a fuselage that was separate from the engines and the dual tail ailerons located on the wings, leaving the area behind the cockpit to accommodate larger loads. The design allowed more powerful engines and a cargo area uncluttered by landing gear and control cables.

What's the difference between the Flying Boxcar and thePR5 Duffel Bag?

The Flying Boxcar Sports Duffel has a full length main compartment with extra raised pockets located on the side of the bag, whereas the PR5 has a shorter and smaller main compartment with pockets on both ends. The Flying Boxcar also features grab handles on the ends and a padded bottom reinforced with ballistic nylon, our toughest. Overall, the Boxcar will actually carry slightly more gear.

What's the difference between the Sun Chaser and the Flying Boxcar?
The Flying Boxcar is a full five inches longer and one inch wider.

Will this bag meet personal item sizing?
You can use it as one but we don't market it as such. So long as it wasn't fully packed you might be able to sneak one by.

Why is the bottom padded?
The padding was requested by photography enthusiasts to protect their camera gear from impacts.

Why are there two zippers on the back of the bag?

They are there for a pass-through panel so that the bag can be mounted over the handles of a wheeled bag.

Is there a way to securely lock my bag?
Sure, you can use any TSA approved bag lock or try our Cable Lock for a simple, semi-secure solution. Watch this video where CEO Jim Markel demonstrates how you can use the cable that comes with the product Dog Tag price tag to secure your bag. Keep in mind, any determined thief can still cut open a soft sided bag with a sharp knife.

What's the best way to pack the Flying Boxcar?
Build your own Custom Red Oxx Packing Cube Kit, which were designed specifically to work in conjunction with Red Oxx bags. Or try the bundle packing method. Watch the packing video under the Videos tab on the product page.

How many days worth of clothes will fit in the Flying Boxcar?
The Flying Boxcar was designed to easily hold a weekend's worth of your clothes, like for a beach trip... thus the product name.

Are there any interior pockets?
The Flying Boxcar has two raised side pockets and one flat side pocket. There is only the one large main compartment without interior pockets.

Is this the same bag as the Railroad Grip?
The Railroad Grip was designed by railroaders for railroaders and will fit the typical engineer's lamp, rulebook and so on. For the harsh environment of the railroad, the Grip is also a superior choice due to it's ballistic weighted heavy-duty fabric.

My zipper broke. The teeth have separated. Do I send it in for warranty repair?
No need for warranty repair, try to fix it yourself. Check out this video where CEO Jim Markel shows how easy it is to do it yourself.

Can you ship USPS?
Yes, Red Oxx will ship USPS upon request. Simply state, "Please ship USPS" in the cart comments during checkout and we will adjust your billing accordingly.
