IDRYBAG Dry Bags Waterproof Backpack for Travel Dry Bags for Kayaking Waterproof Bags for Boating Swimming Travel Floating Paddle Boarding Submersible

It's better than what I expected.Study, brilliant colour, waterproof (tried water test at home, hope it can pass the tough environment later).The mesh pockets at both sides are very useful for small stuff like drinks. The front mesh pocket for things like pass.The hidden pocket at the back for valuable things, to me, is a MUST when you are in "not that" safe places.I had 2 waterproof backpacks before, this one will likely be the last one!

I live on a boat and have a lot of waterproof bags. To be fair, most are pretty good! Also to be fair most of my waterproof bags (including this one) have not fallen overboard or have been completely submerged, so trial by fire (er, water?) has yet to be conducted.However, based on the other waterproof backpacks I own - which I purchased because I thought they were really good - this one has a few more details that move it to the front of the pack (see what I did there?).Not to be underestimated: It is odorless! Some waterproof bags have a plastic/ chemical smell that permeates whatever you put into it, but this one is scent free.It is also relatively easy to open the bag to access the contents. A lot of times it is easy to get lost in the mindset "I need to make sure this will seal so tight no water will ever get in" and it overrides the consideration about the need to access the contents. I have bags that seal like a drum but it seems like it takes me five minutes to access my wallet or sunglasses case or whatever. This bag makes it easier to access my stuff despite being very tightly sealed.I love that this bag attaches onto a rolling luggage. Genius! Thank you!It also holds my 14" laptop with no problem, and keeps it in a separate area in the bag.Like all bags this size, it holds lots of stuff. LOTS. When I hop off the boat and take a dinghy to the mainland, I can't/ don't run back to the boat unless I can 100% avoid it, so having a good sized bag is important to me. What do I put in this bag? A pair of extra shoes (not as bulky as sneakers but more substantial than flip flops), a microfiber hand towel, wallet, small bag of makeup/hairbrush; cell phone, earphones, usually my 14" laptop, computer chargers and cords, a spare external charging bank for the phone and computer, sunglasses, a long sleeve shirt/top to avoid the a/c freeze in many restaurants, and the bag is still NOT completely full.The small 2 liter waterproof bag is handy as a mini purse if I don't want to carry the big backpack; and it's also ideal for carrying my cell phone, credit card, keys when I walk on the beach so I don't have to be concerned about a rogue wave ruining those things.

So far so good, have only used once so far. A couple of things I noticed though is the front zippered pocket isn’t waterproof and while people say they liked the straps that hold the top cap of the pack closed, unless your pack is completely full, the hooks don’t stay attached.

Really nice dry bag backpack. Haven't used it on a hike yet. But did a lot of testing and posted some photos. My wife and I take lots of long hikes, especially along and through some shallow creeks and rivers, many with waterfalls and swimming areas. It's always a challenge to keep stuff dry, like phones, camera gear, towels, and spare clothes.This backpack appears to be really well made for this purpose. The design for sealing the top is super-easy to use and works extremely well. Plus there's a top cap that covers the seam and straps down tightly into place. The material is not only water-proof but obviously very durable as well. It feels thick and should tolerate a lot of abuse. The joints and seams look rock solid.There are tons of unexpected features like the luggage strap to hook it to your carry-on. There's a reflective strip on the back, a see-through outer pocket, etc. There's even a small outer pocket on one of the shoulder straps though it's too small for a smartphone. Side pouches for water bottles, hooks, handles, and a smaller 2L dry bag. There's tons of padding so it's very comfortable, even when loaded with gear. There's also a detachable, padded laptop bag on the inside.Overall, this is a serious backpack for protecting your stuff from water. Everything from the design, materials, and features was well thought-out and executed. I can't wait to get out on the trails with this beast.

An amazing improvement over my old dry bag, this Idrybag waterproof backpack works fantastic for fishing from shore as well as from my boat. The fact that this bag has two shoulder straps and plenty of pockets makes it a clear winner in its category. The shoulder straps are comfortable and adjustable in length. Both outside pockets are real useful, one holds my water bottle and the other holds my fishing pliers. The zipper pocket in front holds my keys, phone, licenses, and money, and I can see the content because it is see through. Inside, there is a velcro organizer that is useful in separating different baits and holding snacks for me. Often, I have more room than I need within this bag, and it fits all my tackle with ease. I like both the gray and yellow dry bags but ended up choosing the the yellow bag, which is colorful and very visible. I am glad I ordered this and will be using it plenty in future angling. Highly recommended!

Bought this backpack to take rafting down the river. Unfortunately, it wasn’t actually waterproof. After the first time we stopped to take a break I opened it and it had multiple inches of water in it. I assumed I just closed it wrong, so I dumped the water out and re rolled it 4 times. Next time we stopped I had the same problem and had to dump water out again. Finally when we got to our pickup spot I opened it hoping that this time it wouldn’t have a bunch of water in it, again I was sadly disappointed. Luckily all that got ruined was the toilet paper, lighters, and smokes. It’d probably be good at keeping stuff dry under just rainy conditions but was a waste of money to keep stuff dry when rafting.
