Looks great out of the box! Excited to put it to use!

I use this tote for everything! It's been essential all summer. Keeps everything dry and I love the exterior pockets for wet clothes or my water bottles. It's so hard to find a waterproof tote and this one is beautiful and comfortable.

useful double pack for kayak trips

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.

The first thing I noticed and liked about this kit is how it feels and also the lightweight. It has a nice rubbery texture that seems to be waterproof and also wont slip in hand. The contents are basic for a first aid kit and everything you'll need to take care of minor events. It ash waterproof bandages, ice pack, rolls of first aid tape, scissors, tweezers, and numerous ointments and cleaning wipes. Basically everything I would put together if I was to get the supplies myself. Having such a nice case is well worth it because i've purchased other kits where I've almost been embarrassed by the quality of the cases. This one will last, and it's high-quality. It's reflective too which is very unique in case it's stored in a car and you're pulled over on the side of a highway with other cars coming past.

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.

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

Got this backpack for my boyfriend for Christmas. He’s had a few instances of his backpack going overboard when offshore fishing. He LOVES this backpack - definitely his go to for fishing now!

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.

Love this company, brand and customer service.

Love this small kit! Great size and supplies/items.

We recently took a trip to the British Virgin Islands and stayed on a boat for several days. We bought this because we were worried about traveling to and from the boat via the dinghy and getting our phones, towels, and money, wet. It kept everything bone dry even through a downpour and a swim from boat to shore, one day. We were pretty nervous about swimming with it but it not only kept everything completely dry but also acted as a bit of a floating device (do not recommend putting the pack ON your back while swimming). Definitely a great purchase!

Bought 2 backpacks for our yearly trip to the Virgin Islands and they arrived the day after I ordered. Impressive! We had many tropical downpours on vacay and the waterproof backpacks saved us so many times on the beach and ferry. Best purchase ever especially with such unpredictable weather!

Good quality. Good range of sizes.

The straps are large strong and really high quality. I had lost one of mine that came with my River backpack, but upon my request these were made available through the website. I'm so grateful that this company is so accommodating.

This set includes 4 carabiners, each 2 inches long. They are made of a very light and strong plastic and include no springs. Instead, the plastic arm pushes open, and on the tip of the arm is a small groove. When closed, this small groove keeps the carabiner from sliding side to side. They seem very durable. I was able to fully push the arm in such that it touches the other side. It takes considerable effort, so this is not flimsy plastic. Based on my tests of 50 sets of opening and closing, it still seems very durable. This is a great alternative to metal carabiners, especially if you want to avoid clanking. These are obviously not rated for mountaineering or anything, though. Thanks for reading! I hope you found this review helpful!
