this is a dream bag. lightweight, strong, durable! great buy...TY

I'm absolutely thrilled with my new waterproof backpack! As a photographer, I've had my fair share of close calls with rain and water damage. But this backpack has been a total game-changer. I've submerged it in water, worn it in torrential downpours, and even used it as a makeshift flotation device (just kidding, but it's that buoyant!) - and my gear has stayed bone-dry every time. The material is incredibly durable, and the sealing system is top-notch. I've packed my cameras, lenses, and accessories with confidence, knowing they'll be safe from the elements. The backpack itself is comfortable to wear, with padded straps and a sleek design that doesn't scream "waterproof" (in a good way). Pros: - Truly waterproof (not just water-resistant!) - Durable material and construction - Comfortable to wear - Keeps gear dry in extreme conditions Cons: - None (seriously, I'm struggling to think of any!) This backpack has given me the freedom to shoot in any weather, without worrying about my gear. Rainy days are no longer a concern - in fact, they're now an opportunity to capture unique shots without stress. If you're a fellow photographer or just someone who loves the outdoors, do yourself a favor and invest in this amazing waterproof backpack. Your gear (and you) will thank you!

I just received the wonderful first aid kit that I won in your giveaway. Wanted to thank you so much for the kit as I never had a first aid kit. I am already showing it to all my friends who are liking it as well.

Nice and compact, has all you need for minor first aid in quality dry bag!

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.

Small first aid kit, soft case, has the essentials worth keeping on hand. Size is nice. Easy to bring along.

I am so pleased with the quality and look of the product.

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.

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!

Need safety on the water. This was a nice kit. Waterproof

The best, most well made bag I have. I use it everytime I go fishing and never worry for my gear. Thank you breakwater for creating something that is stylish and gives me peace !

Great product and great customer support! :)

Very nice kit! I likke the contents and case.

Use onboard a kayak for emergencies. Waterproof bag seems of good quality and is a better option over hard plastic which might crack and then leak.

So many bags out there to choose from, this one takes the cake because of the phone pocket. Dropped my iphone in the water last summer (ended up losing it) and needed to get something so that doesn't happen again. Haven't yet had a chance to take it out but I love how it holds my iphone 13 (newest one). The price of phones are so out of control nowadays if you like being on the water, you have to get a backpack with a phone holder.
