Perfect truly waterproof backpack, excellent storage space and comfortable.

This bag is perfect, and I don't say that lightly, I'm super picky and this bag has met all of my expectations: 1. The material is incredibly durable 2. It really is water submersible 3. Super comfortable 4. Spacious but doesn't make me look like I'm an overpacker even though I am it just gives a sleek look. The company is also amazing, you can tell they really car about their product and go to great lengths to make sure the customer is getting what they paid for if not more. I've contacted their customer service before and they responded in 1 day and solved my problems instantly. I began to look for this quality of companies when I shop.

So much room, amazing build quality, really comfortable - it's the best backpack I've ever owned.

I absolutely love my waterproof bag. I’m an avid SCUBA diver, swimmer, etc. and it works well for my needs; no leaks and easy to clean. Also it is just the right size. The price was worth it and I will purchase more products in the future.

I've had my breakwater supply Explorer for about 6 months. I live in central Florida so the waterproof-ness gets a workout. I've been traveling all over the world with it and it has proven time and time again to be a reliable travel companion. Some of the stitching was coming loose on the top handle - I reached out to customer support via their website to report it. They responded in less than 24 hours and after providing a few more details a new bag was in the mail and heading my way. I'd happily recommend this bag to friends, family and everyone else!

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.

This backpack is heavy duty! I work as a camp counselor at an outdoor camp and have used it in various weather conditions (rain/shine) and at different nature spots (lakes, waterfalls, rivers, trails, etc). I haven't tested its waterproof claim yet (been meaning to do so in my bathtub), but I have worn it while it rained, and the stuff in my backpack was absolutely dry! The zippers are hard to move, but that's because they are supposed to prevent water from seeping through. I do like how there is a pocket you can slip your phone into that you can see on the outside, and the material covering your phone is thin enough so that you can still touch your phone screen! I prefer this backpack to the other ones that have the openings at the top that you have to roll down - it's so much easier just being able to unzip the backpack and grab what I need! I think the only thing that tripped me up at first was the price point, but, other than that...I would highly recommend this backpack!

These punch above their weight class. I wouldn't use them for any load-bearing applications, but infinitely useful for small accessory attachment. Based on that use case, durability would not be a concern.

The backpack is fantastic. Very spacious, particularly in depth. I love the simple layout, and it is very high quality. I very much appreciate the cup holders on the side but wish they were able to hold slightly larger vessels.

This 15 L pack holds 7+ large individually wrapped swimbaits, leader line spools, nose and split ring pliers, supporting terminal tackle, gloves, towel, scale, phone, and map with room to spare. Sturdy zippers with positive lock and fat pulls allow for fast, precise, openings and closings. No more rolltop sacks holding up the show. Superior shell materials and construction combine with the zipper system to create a compact, comfortable, and truly waterproof bag. The best backpack planetwide for focused kit boat or bank anglers targeting big bass with big baits. Hands down.

I added these carabiner hooks to my Osprey Aether 60 pack and my Camelbak daypack for overnight backpacking and day hike trips. So far they work well and have no issues holding my hydroflask 16oz water bottle or Camelbak water bottle. I'll update if they end up snapping or failing while hiking on the trail.

Good quality clips that work well and were exactly as I was expecting. Would recommend!

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!

Really great bag! The white is more off white grey tone but it still looks clean. Straps are comfortable and the chest clip is a nice option. The pockets inside are a big plus and the overall space inside is more than I expected. I have not gotten it wet but the zippers seem heavy duty so I’m sure the seal is perfect. Thinking about getting one the black one for my boyfriend- it’s perfect for our water based jobs.

Great little waterproof bag which has everything first aid you need. Light and perfect for any outdoor activity.

Easily the best backpack I could have bought for the conditions I am working in (Pacific Northwest coastal mud flats). Has kept my camera and optic gear dry and clean without a worry even in the wettest conditions. The material has been durable and I can see this bag lasting a while, being a very good investment.

I’ve had this bag for years. Hiked through jungles, swam through waterfalls, and hiked through the rain forest. My bag still looks new. The only caution is electronics or item susceptible to heat, the nature of waterproofing a bag means contents will get very warm in the sun in extended use. All in all couldn’t ask for more
