Any waterfowler knows the importance of keeping gear dry. Rather if it’s camera gear, or shells. The fogland backpack has allowed me do so. In fact, it has allowed me to chase more birds in the rain, sleet and snow without my gear being ruined.

So I just got back from Mexico for 30 days fly fishing in the surf; highly recommend the product. Enjoyed how it complimented my system of moving my gear around. I would say that customer service is over the top. And, I received a multiple unsolicited compliments.

High quality. Durably made of thick material. The back is nicely padded, but the straps are thin. All seams and connections are well made. Floats. No air leaks. 15l is about the size of a normal school backpack and it has three inside pockets to stay organized. The zippers are firm but easy to open and close. Elegant design. Fog white is light grey. I love it.

Bought this as a gift and they loved it! The dry bag itself is amazing quality and there are so many things included. Super impressed and would recommend.

The backpack I received is of the highest quality. However, more importantly is the top notch customer service I received in asking questions and getting them answered……Great individuals and company to deal with!!!!

Breakwater Supply’s warranty process exceeded my expectations—they sent a brand new waterproof backpack right away, with only a small shipping cost on my end. I never had to go without a bag, which made the whole experience incredibly convenient and stress-free. It’s rare to see this level of customer support, and it definitely earned my trust in their products.

Haven’t had the opportunity to test this backpack in any heavy rain yet, but the design is sleek and well built. The shoulder straps can be a little uncomfortable depending on the weight of what’s inside the bag and I hope the back-pad drys quickly because it looks a little spongey. Overall looks and feels like a sturdy bag for the price

This bag is awesome! Did exactly what we needed to do while in the mountains of the Dominican Republic. We literally let the bag float around in the springs while we jumped from spring to spring. It is not 100% waterproof as you can't sink it underwater and guarantee nothing won't get a little wet but it will float and keep your stuff dry from the splash and the rain which we were caught in while trekking back down the mountain. It is a really good quality bag.

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.

Hello readers of the Breakwater Supply company reviews for the Explorer 25L waterproof backpack. I purchase my first Breakwater Supply bag in August of 2022. When it arrived in the mail it was on time with quick delivery. Showing excitement and ready to try out this new bag. Switching from a worn out a waterproof Patagonia 30L , after close to two-years of daily use. Which can be seen here on this YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFjKi95grHs YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynUjU2kMCuo The switch from the Patagonia to Breakwater Supply was helpful in keeping items separated and organized. It also stored all the personal property allowing everything to stay dry. Lowering any stress one might have when getting caught in the rain or on the boat with water splashing on deck. This is an awesome backpack for organized onshore fisherman who carry all there tackle and want to keep it dry. The primary Breakwater Supply backpack I use goes through ups and downs daily, with an average weight of ten pounds in the bag. Holding everything one might need and use for a business administrative lifestyle. Which in this case is education while in college over the next few years. Here comes the good news, this manufacture stands by there product with professional customer service and has provided a brand new Backpack after mine became damaged. If your looking to try a waterproof bag this company is offering a water tight sealed bag.

I'm in love with a backpack :D

Love the durability, waterproof bag. Light and comfortable. Trying it out for my Bali holiday.

Works as described. Good quality and finish.

The challenge of anyone setting off on a waterborne endeavor is how to both keep things dry and accessible. I purchased this backpack in an attempt to solve that problem for myself and I am glad that I did. The backpack is watertight while maintaining a level of accessibility that is needed when on the water and in confined spaces. Putting this backpack in front of me in my pack raft was the perfect solution for needing to keep my camera and lunch dry, but still needing to be able to get them. Other bags require the old fashioned roll down sleeve and buckle or the US Army wet weather bag’s double cinch approach. This waterproof zipper design is far better than either of those. Additionally, to economize space in the boat (very limited on a packraft) the compression strap helps keep the bag from taking up much-needed room. The phone pouch is, by far, the best feature of the backpack. I cannot tell you how many times I have been on the water and wanted the use of my phone for maps, texts, or other things while being terrified to take it out in fear of dropping it. Waterproof or floating cases help, but it also decreases the usability of the phone. This backpack keeps the phone safe while allowing you to use it. It is even better if you have a pair of Bluetooth earphones that will allow you to make phone calls while the phone is safe in the backpack. If nothing else, this feature alone is worth the purchase of the backpack in my opinion.

This bag will serve a dual purpose 1) travel either airlines or my car 2) to be placed in my basket on my E bike to go to the Lighthouse in the winter. It gets cold and windy at the top of the lighthouse. I dress down for my ride there but, need extra things at the top. So just to see how much I could take if needed I stuffed the bag. The following all fit in.; extra pants, long johns, rain jacket (Columbia fairly heavy), super thick sweatshirt, an additional pull over sweatshirt, knit hat, ear muffs , scarf, wool socks, thin socks, waterproof shoes or rubber covers (try rubber covers, galoshes for older people). Also small bicycle pump and repair tire kit. All in a waterproof bag. That keeps it shape and is very well made. Another plus it fit in my over size Electric Bike Company model R bike basket. Yet it also felt very good with great weight distribution, when I placed it on my back. Perfect as a carry on bag. By having all these options it was easier justifying the price. The old saying is “ you get what you payed for” in this case I got more in quantity, storage and waterproof. I received before the arrival date in excellent condition.' Tried to find fault with the bag. I could not. The bag has some reflective material that works well at night. If needed you can easily add a light to the bottom handle or a reflective belt around the bag.

Two-time purchaser of this. Both are great quality. It's a heavyweight sweatshirt, which is what I like the most about it. So far the first one has held up and would expect the same from this one.

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.
