Super happy with this bag

I've been in the market for waterproof bag but never really found exactly what I've been looking for until this came out. I wanted higher capacity, stretch panels, roll top, a few pockets, and the Bungie attachments. This bag absolutely fit the bill, and I'm super happy with it. I purchased it for fishing, mountain ice skating, and water trips on sup/kayaking. Great purchase and it completely fit the bill for me.

AMAZING! 100km trek through the Sahara

I used this bag as my hiking day pack when I hiked 100KM through the Sahara desert last November. It was epic. The things I really loved was that it's so lightweight you don't have bulk to start with. The little stash compartment on the waist strap was perfect for lip balm or small snacks. I added a water bladder and it worked out fine. Great to have outer compartments for essentials. We didn't have any rain but the sand and dust just brushed off really well and still looked smart. I also used this as my under seat luggage on the plane and the size was perfect.

Good but….

It’s a really good bag but unfortunately the waist straps can’t be removed when not in use and get in the way.

Just what I needed!

With all the rain we’ve been having (🫣😬) the bags I had were not up to the job of keeping my contents dry. I was contemplating the two sizes but glad I got the larger one.

It’s very comfortable to wear and keeps everything dry. Perfect amount of pockets and the side pockets fit my larger drinks bottles which is an absolute bonus. The only thing that I would change on the bag is to have a carabiner to attach keys etc to inside rather than the plastic clip. This clip is difficult to take keys etc back off again. But going to add my own little carabiner to make it easier for me.
