I purchased this bag for a trip to Maui's rain forest. I knew we would be in and out of the water and that it would be raining some of the trip. This bag did not disappoint! Not one drop of water got in the bag. I put everything from my phone, camera, extra clothes and food in there. The 25L left lots of room to carry others items. I was a little worried the light color would look nasty after a day in the mud, but it cleaned up well. The bag actually floated upright which was nice when I was in deeper water. Would definitely buy again.

i stuffed it with containers of ice water that really put it to work testing the strength integrity and workmanship of all attachments and straps sewed and heat sealed together i found my BackPack out of all the manufacturers i carefully methodically located and purchased Break Water after reading other people’s review on and off their website on youtube videos and once home in my possession found it rugged strong robust brutal and likely to last years through the harshes environments and treatments i know i can count on Break Water additionally i purchased the first aid package i saw seemed fully capable of supplying the right people with handy supplies in the event first aid supplies is needed during my journeys Break Water yes expensive but today everything is getting more and more expensive luckily here you getting your money’s worth oh by the way i shopped this back pack because my last one which last some time but it blew out around the zipper and left a hole i don’t ever anticipate that and hope Break Water would stand behind its products in any event. thank you

Excellent

These plastic clips are very durable even though they are plastic. The are very strong and I use one of them to attach my mailbox key to my car keyring so I can disconnect it to get my mail. The clips maintain their shape and securely hold the key. They aren't quite 2" in length. Since it's not made of metal its lighter and does not clang around.

Awesome product, does its job perfectly. Using it for activities as well as office. Also, amazing customer service!

These are very nice shoes and they fit well right out of the box. I am usually a US men’s 10.5 and I got the 11 which fits pretty well with just a small amount of space in the toe box that makes them feel breathable without being loose. The slip-on design is convenient because I can get them on and off quickly without fighting the heel. The cushioning is impressive for something this lightweight and it gives me solid support on long walks without any soreness afterward. The sole has a grippy feel that holds well on both wet decks and rocky trails which makes them great for a variety of surfaces. They are definitely waterproof which I confirmed during a hike that included crossing some shallow water. I stepped right into the stream and they had no trouble keeping my feet dry while still feeling comfortable for the entire hike itself. The material sheds water quickly afterward and dried faster than I expected which made them easy to keep using the same day. I also appreciate that they do not develop any odor after getting wet which tells me the lining material was well chosen. After using them for boating, hiking, and even some casual errands, they have proven to be a versatile pair that I can wear almost anywhere without worrying about comfort or performance.

Looks great out of the box! Excited to put it to use!

I’ve been using this bag 5 days a week on a boat for a year now Could not be happier. End of the day I literally spray the bag off with my camera gear in it Looks great, ultra waterproof. Best bag I’ve ever had. Year in and expect many more out of it

By far the best waterproof bag I’ve ever used. It’s been on several scuba dive trips, boat rides, and even swimming with me on a excursion that had a water portion involved. Zero leaks, and it looks brand new after over a year, and multiple uses! Forget the price, you will have this bag for a long time. Totally worth it!

Writing as a Divemaster, marine ecologist, and full-time PhD student who spends months of the year collecting data in the field. While I've yet to drag this backpack through its paces out on a fieldwork season, I've been pleasantly surprised with how robust it has been as an EDC backpack in adverse winter conditions. It's burly and rugged, and has a functionally minimalist design with plenty of external lash points and additional features. I picked this bag over alternatives such as the Patagonia Guidewater line or the Fishpond Thunderhead primarily because of its built-in laptop sleeve and double airtight pockets (one main compartment and one outside compartment). I don't regret this decision at all, and am pleasantly and plentifully surprised at how well-made and thought-out this product is. My only gripe so far is how small the external water bottle sleeves are—none of my water bottles fit in them, but it's also hard to whine about a feature that none of the other submersible packs on the market even have to begin with, so I digress. The hingeless carabiners are also sleek and functional and don't feel disposable. In short, this bag seems perfect for my demanding use cases, and my only suggestions are 1) bigger/more expandable water bottle sleeves, and 2) a clearer picture of Breakwater Supply's commitment to conservation and sustainability and how their products and materials reflect this focus. Thank you for this backpack Godsend!

Good little kit. Light sticks are a nice to have when off shore, and having a small multitool is good too. Emergency things like poncho and blanket are must haves and usually not included in basic kits. Everything packs in tight in the dry bag too.

It is way smaller than the pictures but complete.

full of great supplies - anything you could possibly need - and so compact!

GREAT KIT! Has just about everything. I remember buying a survival bracelet years ago for about 15 bucks and there's one actually included in this kit and this one has a small compass and space for some tiny fishing tackle. The one thing it may be missing to be actual survivor worthy is a packable shovel and larger knife. the shovel can be makeshift and the knife I usually carry my own anyway. Other than that this is a really solid kit for price.

Great and best choice

New review: Top notch quality is one thing this brand does, but doing it repeatedly is what sets this brand apart. I would trust this brand with the safety of high value equipment transportation. Earlier I left a review at one, stating that it never arrived in the mail. This was due to me not physically being at that address and having to have someone look for me. Turned out it was delivered.

Absolutely perfect kit for the Appalachian Trail Thru hike. Hiking 2193 miles from Georgia to Maine, one can encounter a wide variety of injuries and dangerous situations. This kit has everything and then some! The water proof bag is the icing on the top and the lite weight the cherry on top!!!!! It worked perfectly as far and weight and packability. Knowing I could hang it on the outside of my pack if I needed the space was awesome. Thankful I didn’t have to use it but it will stay with me on this journey!!!

I haven’t used it for that long, but the quality looks/feels nice. The zippers need a bit of a tug to open, but there are loops that help with opening the zippers easily. It looks waterproof, but I haven’t tested it yet.

Haven't had to test it all out yet, but it's great! And has scissors, not all all first aid kits do! The portable saw looks a little worrisome and wouldn't rely on it for creating stints however.
