Description
This is a Dakine Split Roller listing in the Anderson Waterfall color, sold in the 110 liter size. It is the third Split Roller listing in this catalog, alongside separate entries for the 85 liter and 110 liter versions, and it is the most informative of the three: it names the fabric, names the zippers and states a warranty. It also disagrees with the other two on the numbers.
The traveler and the trip this is for
A 110 liter wheeled duffel is a gear hauler. The split level design divides the interior into separate large compartments so wet, dirty and clean stay apart without packing cubes, and Dakine describes it as a traveling locker room you can live out of. That is an accurate account of the format.
It is checked luggage in every scenario. Readers looking at the other listings for the same product family should read the Dakine Split Roller 110L and the Dakine Split Roller 85L, and those wanting a genuinely cabin sized bag from the same maker should read the Dakine Status Roller 42L.
Dimensions, and a linear total with almost nothing to spare
The specification block gives Item Dimensions of 12.99 by 16.93 by 31.89 inches. Those convert to 33 by 43 by 81 centimeters, which matches the metric figures the description gives for the 110 liter size exactly.
What a check-in counter would find
Most United States carriers apply a checked bag limit of 62 linear inches, meaning length plus width plus height added together. At 31.89 by 16.93 by 12.99 inches the linear total is 61.81 inches. That is inside the limit by less than two tenths of an inch.
On a soft bag that margin is effectively zero. A duffel packed hard bulges past its nominal dimensions, and a bag that bulges by a quarter of an inch on any axis is over. The listing also does not state whether these figures include the wheels and the handle housing. Anyone flying a carrier with an oversize fee should measure the packed bag before leaving for the airport, and should consider the 85 liter size instead if the margin matters.
Weight is where the listings diverge. This specification block gives 9.68 pounds. The description in this same listing says the 110 liter weighs 11 pounds. The separate 110 liter listing in this catalog says 10 pounds in its bullets and 9.68 in its specifications. Three figures across two listings for the same bag. Plan on the heaviest and confirm with the seller if a checked weight allowance is tight.
Capacity figures that do not reconcile
The Size field reads 110 Liter. The Capacity field reads 1.1E plus 2 Liters, which is scientific notation for 110 that has survived into a customer facing specification.
The description then gives the 110 liter bag as 6,000 cubic inches. That is about 98.3 liters, not 110. And the separate 110 liter listing in this catalog gives 6,710 cubic inches, which is 110 liters exactly and is the figure that matches the name.
So within this listing the cubic inch figure and the liter figure disagree with each other by about 12 liters, and across listings the same bag is given two different cubic inch figures. As a cross check, the outer envelope of 31.89 by 16.93 by 12.99 inches is about 7,013 cubic inches, or 115 liters, so both published figures are at least physically possible. We are not going to choose between them. If capacity is the reason you are buying, confirm it with the seller.
Materials, zippers and wheels
This listing names the fabric where the other two do not. The Material field reads polyester and the Outer Material field reads softside. That is not a denier, so the fabric weight is still unknown, but it is more than the other Split Roller listings publish.
The zippers are specified as number 10 lockable YKK main zippers. That is the single best specification in this listing. Number 10 is a heavy gauge coil, which is what a bag that gets overstuffed and forced shut needs, since zipper failure is the most common way a duffel dies. YKK is the industry benchmark, and lockable means the pulls accept a padlock.
The wheels are urethane and, importantly, described as replaceable. Replaceable wheels are rare and genuinely valuable on a bag of this kind, because wheels are the component that fails first and a bag that can be re wheeled outlives one that cannot. Urethane is the softer wheel material, which rolls more quietly and wears faster on rough ground than a harder compound. No wheel count or diameter is published.
The Split Wing brace, the interior and a patent claim
The Split Wing collapsible brace provides the bag’s stability and folds flat for storage, which is a real advantage over rigid cases that occupy the same space empty as full. The description calls it patent pending and a feature bullet calls it patented. Those cannot both be current and it is a small inconsistency rather than a product issue.
Inside, mesh dividers keep the contents of each compartment visible, and a neoprene panel on the large interior compartment provides stretch for over packing. That neoprene panel is a thoughtful detail: it lets one compartment take more than its nominal share without stressing the zipper.
One further note on the data. The feature bullets on this listing describe the 85 liter bag throughout, giving its dimensions, its weight and its cubic inch figure, while the specification block and the Size field both say 110 liter. The bullets have been carried over from the smaller product.
The lifetime warranty, and the demand picture
The description states that the bag is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. That is a stated term and it is more than either of the other Split Roller listings in this catalog offers, both of which publish no warranty at all.
What is not published is the scope. There is no statement of what is covered, what is excluded, or how a claim is made. That matters more on a lifetime warranty than on a fixed term one, because limited lifetime warranties in this industry typically cover defects in materials and workmanship and exclude damage caused by airline handling, which is precisely the damage a checked duffel sustains. Read the actual terms before treating the warranty as part of the value.
The listing shows a 5.0 star average across 2 ratings. Two ratings is not a sample and no conclusion should be drawn from it. It ranks 615th in Suitcases and 334,130th in Clothing, Shoes and Jewelry, and it first appeared in September 2023. A comparably specified wheeled duffel appears in the Osprey Sojourn Shuttle 100L review, and more options sit across the suitcases category and the travel duffels category.
Who should buy it, and who should not
Buy it if you want split level compartment separation, number 10 lockable YKK zippers, replaceable urethane wheels, a body that folds flat for storage and a stated lifetime warranty, and you accept a linear total sitting on the line.
Skip it if you cannot absorb an oversize fee, because 61.81 linear inches leaves nothing for a packed bag bulging. Skip it too if you need a settled capacity or weight, since this listing disagrees with itself on both and with the maker’s other listings as well.
