Ready to take on anything.
The Fogland Backpack is 100% waterproof, fully submersible, and keeps out water, snow, sand, and dirt, making it a true safe-haven for your gear.
More freedom to enjoy the outdoors!
With complete protection in all climates, conditions, and environments, you can spend less time worrying about your gear, and have more freedom to enjoy your travels, adventures, and daily life.
Not Just Waterproof – SUBMERSIBLE.
We don’t just claim it – it’s the real deal. Whether you’re hiking deep in the woods, navigating the shoreline on your kayak, or cycling through a downpour, have complete confidence your gear is safe, dry, and protected.
My favorite feature of the pack is the use of drysuit-grade airtight zippers on both the main compartment and front pocket, enabling 100% waterproof storage in both spaces.
Made from our advanced Hydrowall™ material.
Our advanced Hydrowall™ 420D Nylon TPU is everything an outdoor textile should be: lightweight, 100% waterproof, wipes clean, and it’s virtually indestructible – it’s completely tear-proof and resists abrasions and stains.
Permanently welded seams.
The Fogland Backpack exclusively uses welded seams, with zero stitching – instead, the edges of each panel are fused together using an advanced construction process called radio-frequency welding. These seams are permanent, with zero gaps, to ensure water, snow, sand, and dirt stay out.
All-Day Comfort
- S-curved ergonomic shoulder straps
- Adjustable, removable and reflective chest strap with emergency whistle
- Molded EVA back panel with airflow channels and fast-drying padding
- Lightweight neoprene shoulder padding with reflective elements on each side
From the woods, to the water, to daily life.
Highly versatile, with a 16″ laptop sleeve, a fully waterproof front pocket (perfect for smaller items like your phone), and attachment points for clipping on extra gear.

Can this backpack be fully submerged underwater?
Yes, the Fogland Backpack has been tested to the IP68 standard. Once the zippers are sealed shut, the Fogland Backpack can be submerged underwater for extended time (30+ minutes) while keeping all contents in the front pocket and large main compartment completely dry.
Will it float?
Yes! In fact, the Fogland 25L will float with over 40 lbs (18kg) of weight inside. Note: as a disclaimer, we recommend maxxing out your backpack at 10% of your bodyweight to prevent injury.
What’s the difference between the CORDURA and non-CORDURA versions?
The Fogland CORDURA line is roughly 10% lighter in weight and retains its fabric look and feel on the exterior, while the non-CORDURA versions have a rubberized feel. Fogland CORDURA backpacks are made from genuine CORDURA 500D Ripstop Nylon that has been coated on both sides with a TPU layer. Just like the non-CORDURA versions, they are IP68 waterproof and fully submersible.
Do I have to worry about rust?
No. We intentionally use 100% non-corrosive materials and components – from UTX Duraflex buckles to polymer and stainless zippers and pullers.
How big is the laptop sleeve?
The Fogland Lite 15L and Fogland 20L have a 10″ W x 13″ H (25cm X 33cm) laptop sleeve that will hold a standard-sized 14″ laptop. The Fogland 25L’s laptop sleeve measures 10.75″ W x 14.5″ H (27cm x 37cm) and will hold larger laptops measuring 16″ or greater. Both laptop sleeves have a “false bottom” to protect your device from impact with the ground. This false bottom is .8″ (2cm) from bottom for the 15L/20L and 2″ (5cm) from bottom for the Fogland 25L.
Where can I use it?
The Fogland Backpack excels as an all-weather companion for rugged adventure (traveling, hiking, fishing, hunting, boating, paddling, watersports, snow sports) as well as everyday life (gym, work, commuting, biking/cycling). It can also be used as an emergency backpack in areas that are vulnerable to storms, flooding, and intense weather events.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. We stand behind all of our products by backing them with our 2 Year Gear Up Warranty.

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!

Best submersible bag in the market. Sleek, stylish, rugged. Can’t go wrong with this bag.

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?
