I actually bought this after I purchased their drybag backpack, which I LOVE! I usually use it when riding my bike, but I've taken it camping and to the river several times as well. Holding up great so far! The only issue I have with the first aid kit is that it says waterproof, but I'm not sure how since the zipper looks like a normal zipper. I might test it with all the paper things taken out, so, I'll update after that. Otherwise everything included is great!

Very nice kit! I likke the contents and case.

I i've only heard super good things about this bag. Now I've got my own and it lives up to all the expectations.

Works as described. Good quality and finish.

The bag is big, so i can fit my wetsuit inside, and it has a lot of cool features inside and around it (waterbottle, clipse, etc..).

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.

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 use these for hunting when I need silence and durability. These hit a home run in both areas.

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!!!!

All the way from Holland I am writing my excitement for this bag. I cannot wait to test it in BALI this January. And I mean, really test it. I've got water canyoning, mid quad rides and more planned. I am raving on the fact it's total waterproof and so far all the material seems of great quality. I wanted a bag that could last through everything on my day hikes. So I have cubes for my drone, lumix camera and action cam that devide the internal space. Then there's enough space left for a quick dry towel and everything. I'm a fan!

I bought my bag through the Kickstarter campaign. It totally meets and exceeds my expectations at first blush. It seems to be of terrific quality, and is certainly the best bag I’ve bought on Kickstarter to date. I can definitely see it being a hit with people who spend a lot of time around water. I closed the zipper and it retained the air inside, and like on the video I was able to stand in it and the air did not leave the bag. Love the small details like the phone pouch with the clear plastic and the water bottle holder on the other side. I also love the computer pouch inside- will definitely keep the electronics safe. Very glad I got the blue- it’s very pretty. And the thinner material c/w the black still seems plenty tough enough- although time will tell. It may be a limited run though. Have not loaded it up and carried it for a long time to see its comfort, but the straps and the back panel seem well made and likely will hold up with protracted use. The campaign was super slick and smooth and the product came through very quickly and 100% on time, something that cannot be said for most of the KS campaigns. Even my wife loves the bag, and she can be quite fussy around this stuff. All-in-all very very happy. Wish all the KS products could be as good. Well done guys (and gals).

Amazing backpack purchased after thorough market analysis. Love the design and practicality. I use it daily for work / leisure as well as for kitesurfing in all conditions. One needs to get used to the hard zipper and check it constantly not to compromise water resistance. Overall materials and performance are simply great. Customer service provided assistance immediately when needed. Could not have asked for more 🙌 .

Great product. We are actually using them for the first time on our trip to the BVI’s…

I'm a full-time photographer and am often out in rain, water and on sandy beaches. I wanted an adequately sized waterproof backpack to protect my gear, and the Breakwater 25L backpack seems to hit all the checkmarks. I really like that I can also confidently rinse any sand off the backpack when returning home from the beach. Comfortable to wear and has both interior and exterior zipped and pocketed compartments to store smaller items and laptop/iPad, etc. Others have mentioned struggling to close zippers, and yes, they need a good tug to close. There are grippable loops to help open and close the zippers, so that's been a non-issue for me. Great product at a reasonable price to protect my very expensive photography equipment. I also plan to stash a spare set of dry clothes for my more adventurous outings because everything will fit!

Love these waterproof backpacks, we put out laptop in our and threw it in our swimming pool, pulled it out and it was bone dry ! Fits great and heavy duty ! #SWPG Approved !

Great tote for picnicking and the beach
