Right now I use a basic Outdoor Products XL duffel which is huge, something like 40" long and a decent size wide with a cheap zipper on top and a shoulder sling, end totes, and grab handles. However, it's basic nylon and rips easy.
I used it last year and to it's credit it survived flying to Boise, Anchorage, back to Boise, to Seatle, Back to Boise, back to NJ
however, it's ripping apart now and I've sewn it back.
Saw a bunch of nice fancy mountainsmith ones at STP:

The XXL looks like it will easily fit my backpack, plastic mountaineering boots and all sorts of sharp climbing gear.
Any recommendtions for cheap durable travel duffels? The wheeled ones are nice but too expensive and I like the training of lugging around huge packs.
