Stays in my backpack for hiking

I love the bag! Tried out the water proof right when I got home! Good storage and works like a charm! Definitely will buy the 15L when it’s available!

Came as presented. Well made and completely waterproof. Perfect for taking on the boat.

We took the 20L Fogland Cordura Waterproof backpack with us for a week in Disneyworld. It is roomy and lightweight. It was in the 80's and my husband was completely comfortable with wearing it. The way the back is made prevented it from clinging to him. We were able to carry two stainless steel water bottles, neck fans, cooling towels, rain ponchos and snacks and our outer layers without having to stuff anything in there. We were even complimented on how nice it was after a security guard, who was forced to search it at the gate, questioned us as to whether or not it was waterproof. "Nice! You're going to need it!" This is a great alternative to a soggy backpack! Worth every penny. Great customer service, by the way.

Just received but great feeling product

It’s a good thing to have and it’s waterproof. I’ve already been using it. 5-Star Excellent! Especially during this bad weather.

As someone who admittedly nerds out over high-quality bags (especially since my time in the military) this Breakwater Supply IP68-rated waterproof tote hits all the right notes. Yes, it comes with a premium price tag, but in this case, you absolutely get what you pay for. We spend a lot of time at the beach, and this is the perfect size for keeping our critical items sandproof and dry: electronics, chargers, sunscreen, and even diapers now that we’re using it as a hybrid beach/diaper bag. The internal elastic retention system is a nice touch, it keeps things from rattling around and adds a layer of organization you don’t usually see in waterproof bags. The construction is excellent. The welds (for lack of a better word) are clean, durable, and clearly built for abuse. It’s lightweight when empty and folds down easily. Also worth mentioning: the zipper grease. If you’ve used waterproof zippers before, you know how vital that little packet of grease is — and the fact that it’s included shows real forethought by the manufacturer.

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.

4.5 stars. Great bag and excellent customer service! I bought this bag for a trip to the Galapagos and the Amazon next year, so I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it seems like a sturdy bag, and it's pretty cute. I like the texturized appearance of the Condura material but wish it came in more colours or even just a lighter beige. My only gripe is that the 20L pack doesn't have lash tabs or d-rings on the front or sides to secure gear. I know the 25L has those features, but 20-inch long bags look silly on smaller frames (I'm 5'2"), so I had to go with the 20L. It would be great if Breakwater added those features to the smaller bags or offered a shorter version of the 25L for women/shorter individuals. When I purchased the bag, I was worried that the water bottle pockets wouldn't fit my 20oz Lululemon water bottle (3-inch diameter), but I tested it at home, and it seems functional so far. The water bottle pockets have two layers of mesh and a ~0.5" thick elastic at the top, so my water bottle didn't fall out after jumping a few times, but it would be great if it went up about 2" higher. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase. I would love to see more features added to the smaller bags or even a submersible fanny pack in the future.

This bag is super light, extremely comfortable, and can hold a lot! I use it for all my weekend or day trips. Purchased one for my father as well because he needed a bag that was 100% waterproof.

Great quality, perfect size. Yes, zippers can take a little bit of effort to pull but there are loops to hold that helps. After all it is waterproof! Exactly what I needed for a trip to Alaska - in a temperature rain forest. Thank you!

Great and best choice

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.

I've depended on a lot of water resistent and waterproof backpacks for about a year and I could tell this is the real deal. There are two requirements to be waterproof: 1. the material 2. sealing any openings (zippers or roll tops). While roll tops are waterproof, it doesn't mean the openings are completely waterproof under pressure. Also, most roll top bags are built like sacks which serve a purpose but don't make good day packs. However, this bag uses drysuit zippers. But it also has several unique features I haven't seen on a zippable pack like this: 1. two mesh water bottle hoders (while a bit small, they do stretch; see picture), a laptop divider (no padding but should still hold up) 3. Most importantly, the same waterproof zippers on the front stash pocket. I got mine in Cordura which was a 10 dollar difference but is a top notch rip resistent perofrmance fabric. Overall, I do recommend this bag but I do wish it shipped flat (can see the crease in the middle but should be fine once used) and maybe a 30L/28L version with hip straps?

I love having this first aid kit for stashing in my kayak. The case is very nice and even has the sealing zippers to make this water resistant. Pretty much has everything I'll need. The bandage sheers and tweezers aren't high quality tools, but it's what you'd expect for a friendly price for this kit.

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!
