Earth PakTorrent Series Waterproof Dry Bag Keeps Gear Dry for Kayaking, Boating, Hiking, Camping and Fishing with Waterproof Phone Case

UPDATE: I've used this bag occaisionally for 2 years now and the webbing for the strap has come unstitched, real shame as it seemed very durable up till now.Works a treat, very waterproof and has survived being submersible many times. I use this bag while paddle boarding to work and trust it with my phone, laptop and spare clothes. It's not let me down yet. If you're unsure what size to buy then the 30l version is perfect for an overnight trip or a weekend if you pack light. If you're only carrying a few things you can easily roll it up smaller though.

The quality is a lovely strong texture, and the deep green attractive; sadly I’m not impressed or adapted to how best to wear over shoulder/back. I’ve bought it to use for work to tote around my varied oils and balms and other therapy stuff but the jury’s still out. Did initially request a return then I missed the deadline to do so - hence I’m stuck with an unknown for now!

The bag itself is ideal especially walking miles in British weather. The bag I received stops any water from entering the main compartment however the front zip pocket doesn’t. Whilst using the bag (which wasn’t too heavy or full) the plastic on the clip that connects the strap broke. This meant I had to use string to reattach the strap as I needed it before being able to obtain replacement.Also the strap isn’t the most comfortable, I find that the plastic clips can really dig in.

I have taken this dry bag on a kayak and it does a great job of keeping most of the water out however water does get it, I barely got the bag wet and water still managed to get into the bag, not much water got in however it is still called a "dry bag" and I expected it to keep my items dry.

Brought for a trip to North Wales, my wife put her camera and phone in it for a hike up Snowdon and yes it rained, good old Snowdon weather. Kept the gear dry as a bone. A second will be purchased.
