IIn the Dakota Badlands, some journeys stretch for days… others are quick escapes—just enough to clear your head and fill your lungs with clean air. For those shorter adventures, we built the Dakota Waxed Canvas Weekender, a scaled-down companion to our oversized model. It carries the same World War II–inspired toughness and Badlands grit as its larger counterpart—just in a size that’s perfect for traveling light.
Like its big brother, it’s crafted with a rugged 15oz wax-coated canvas that stands up to weather and wear, paired with top grain vegetable-tanned leather trim that only gets better with age. Copper rivets, black vintage metal hardware, and a full leather bottom add strength where it matters most. Thick all-leather carry handles and an adjustable, padded, removable leather strap keep it comfortable in hand or over the shoulder. Side buckle adjustments let you expand for a little extra room or cinch it down when you’re packing light, while two exterior zippered pockets with stout YKK metal zippers keep your quick-grab essentials secure.
Inside, two side pocket sections help keep your gear organized, and a wide opening makes packing effortless—whether it’s a couple of changes of clothes, a good book, or your trusty camera. Lined with easy-to-clean nylon, it’s built to handle dusty trails, wet docks, and the occasional spilled coffee. If your idea of a weekend well spent is a spur-of-the-moment road trip, a quick flight to meet an old friend, or a couple of nights under the stars, this bag is ready to roll. Same soul, same toughness—just in a size made for traveling light.

"The Dakota Waxed Canvas weekender is a solid, well built bag. It great for two to three day trips. A great purchase!"
"Great bag, my husband loves it!!"
"Buffalo Jackson always deliveries quality. Haven’t been disappointed in any of my purchases. This bag is definitely on smaller side. If you want to get something for big enough for a couple of days and some shoes I would go with a size up. I’m using this as a daily gym bag and it’s great"
"The Dakota Waxed Canvas Weekend Bag by Buffalo Jackson is simply beautiful. It is a good size for an overnight tri. I like the interior organization and outside pockets. I look forward to trips with this bag."
"Previously purchased Roosevelt & Walker bags but wanted something smaller. This bag fits the bill with adjustable side straps and the looks are mind-blowing!"
"Big enough for a few nights, pockets on the outside for items you want at hand, super well built. Looking forward to seeing the years ahead of breaking it it."
"It is a great, quality bag. The size is perfect for a 2nd carry on that will fit under the seat in front of you. If you want to use it for a primary carry on I would recommend the oversized bag."
"My fiancé LOVED this weekender!"
"N/a"
