IDRYBAGWaterproof Backpack Dry Bag 20L/30L/40L, Floating Dry Backpack Waterproof for Men, Dry Sack Waterproof Bag for Backpacking Kayak

Great bag for water activities and can double as a short term ice chest when you are in a pinch.The bag is made of quality materials and works great at keeping your belongings dry, even if you have to float the bag.We purchased the bag for a trip to Costa Rica. Used it as a cary-on to pack a weeks worth of clothes and keep our belongings dry when headed to the beach and back into the rain forest. Was very comfortable on the shoulders and when you hike the straps up tight it stays snug on the back. In addition, if you want to take a case of drinks down to the beach you can load it up, throw in ice, and be good to go for a few hours (just dont think of it as a yeti as it was never intended to be).If / When it does get dirty with sand or dirt, just hoes it off outside and leave open to dry, good as new.

I bought this bag (which includes a mini 2L dry bag with clip) because I saw it on Prime Day and the price was too good to pass up. It arrived just before I left on a 6-day fishing trip in northwestern Canada. It proved it's mettle throughout the trip keeping my camera, binoculars, spare clothes, snacks and gear dry and protected throughout. It saw tough duty and was exposed to plenty of lake water as we bounced through 3'-5' lake waves in our Crestliner boats. My DSLR and binos were just put loose in the bag and did not get damaged from any of the shocks (and there were lots of hard bounces). There was also rain that was not able to penetrate. The shoulder straps were great and allowed easy toting (I was used to traditional dry bags with the roll over top and buckles). There was also a D-clip on each should strap which were great for attaching water bottles and other gear that I wanted to keep close at hand.There is a small external zipper pocket which is useful for small, flat items, and the zipper was enough to keep everything dry. The internal small zipper pocket was also helpful for keep separate small items.The mini 2 liter dry bag is traditional with the fold-over clip. It has very little capacity, but worked great to hold my cell phone: I kept it clipped to my waders while fly fishing so I could quickly pull it out and take a snapshot or video, and then quickly stash it away safe and dry.The final advantage was that it worked great as a carry-on bag for my airplane flights. Though not high fashion, it looked pretty good and held a good amount.The only disadvantage was the unnecessary waist strap which I kept buckled tight around the front of the bag so the hanging straps could be kept out of the way. They are unnecessary since the bag really isn't big enough to be carrying a load heavy enough that you would benefit much from the load-bearing support. There is also a chest strap which is pretty unnecessary, but it come with an emergency whistle attached, which is nice, although, if you want an emergency whistle, you should probably supply your own, as the included one is mediocre, at best.Overall, I was very impressed with this purchase.Highly recommended.

I got this bag to keep everything dry on a recent trip to Zion National Park for a hike through the narrows. We packed a lunch in the bag and tossed some frozen water bottles in to keep things cool. I placed my phone, wallet and car keys in the smaller bag and tossed it on top. Bag handled great! I used it again for a hike in Bryce Canyon and also for a trip and small hike to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon.The bag itself came packaged well, had a slight vinyl smell to it but nothing bothersome. It looks like it’s built to last. The material is thick and I’m sure it’ll take a beating. Bag was comfortable to wear on all my trips. The padding along my back had grooves that allowed air to flow. Happy with it so far and recommend it for any trip that would include water.

I didn't take it in the water, but wanted something to keep my stuff dry in case it rained or we got splashed etc. Seems durable but I've only used it the one trip so far. Not sure it would be 100% water tight/waterproof if it got submerged. I think it would definitely float for some period of time, giving you time to swim and grab it though.

I work in the movie industry as a rigging grip, I’m constantly in the elements and usually have many tools with me as well as my cold and rain gear. I use this bag as my primary bag and it works great! Stands up to my abuse and the elements. Nothing has even gotten wet and for the first few weeks I was in the poring rain all day.If your concerned about how well it works for the money, don’t be! It’s impressively well built considering it’s so affordable. My only complaint is they felt the need to print waterproof in bold text on the back of the bag, I really don’t think that was necessary.Don’t wait, get this bag!
