Overboard Classic 100% Waterproof Backpack Dry Bag

I bought this bag for the first time almost 10 years ago, and spent about 5-6 of those years really putting this thing through its paces. I lived and worked at sea for a couple years, and backpacked through a few countries with it. It eventually became not-so-water-proof and died its final death when an overzealous airline baggage worker ripped an arm off. I'd been so pleased with the bag for so long that I decided to purchase the same one again.Sadly, the new bag lacks the internal zipper compartment (where I kept my dive cards, money, and anything else I needed to keep really handy). It's missing the bungy net on the front (where I'd tie my wet things post-dive). There's only has a single netted side pocket (good for sandals, since most boats I've lived on are shoeless, also holds water bottles). And to prep the bag for flights, I used to roll the flap down but then clip the top down to the sides - the new bag only allows you to clip the rolled flaps together. This is fine if I'm the only one carrying it, but it creates a tempting handle shape for airline workers that makes me a little nervous. I suspect if I use it as checked baggage, it's only a matter of time before the plastic clasp gives way from being carried and chucked around by the top.Other than that, so far so good. I've taken it on one short sailing and diving trip and everything stayed dry. We'll see how it holds up over time. Hopefully it's still as high-quality as the original even if it lacks a few of the convenience features I'd grown accustomed to. Since the old one held up so well over time and abuse, I'm sticking with 4/5 stars. Especially when you take into account the price - which is very reasonable for this type and quality of equipment.

La bolsa es lo suficiente grande como para pasar un día de camping en familia, aunque en la descripción había leído que no tenía bolsillos internos decidí comprar ya que la marca me llama la atención, debo decir que si hacen falta tales bolsillos ya que las cosas se desorganizan mucho y en ocasiones en difícil de encontrar lo que se busca, por lo demás me encanto; la verdad tiene muy buena apariencia y cumple su función.

Item is the best for keeping your things dry and downpours. I know because I spend 8 to 10 hours a day in about a week at a time no matter what the weather

Everything stayed safe and dry. I read a lot of people complain about lack of pockets but if your a packer you have all your gear sorted in bags and boxers the way you like. I would say this is for serious outdoor day venture types that want to keep what they need dry. A dry bag that is also a back pack. I use on my fire roads treks.

Lots of space for our needs. The construction is solid, the bag stays dry, and the straps are comfortable; we'll see how it stands up to daily use. I have a smaller Overboard dry bag that has held up well, after having tried many other brands that fall apart after about a year -- hoping for more life out of this one.

La bolsa es de excelente calidad para el trabajo que se utiliza, es a diario contacto en un ambiente de agua, pues es capitán de barco y totalmente satisfecho con la misma..

Love it, used it in Montana kayaking and hiking. Fits my Nikon D50 with 70x300mm lens and 18x55mm lens. Also my Nikon P610 and a towel. Plenty of room easy to carry. Haven't submersed it in water to see if it's waterproof. But if you properly allow enough room at the top to roll it and seal it I see no reason why it wouldn't keep contents dry.

Generally a good dry bag/backpack. However after just one week long river rafting trip one of the d-rings on the front came off. The only thing I clipped to it was a sunglass case so a bit disappointing - at least the case was empty at the time. For this price, I feel like it should either have robust features (like d-rings) or they should be intentionally left off. It may have been the way the d-ring loop was attached in manufacturing because it looks like it just came apart (rather than torn material).

Great for keeping my gear dry cycling to work in all westhers

I have been buying waterproof rucksacks for 12 years, beginning when my son came home from school one day with €200 worth of school books saturated after being caught in a heavy shower. This particular rucksack uses a very simple roll-up and snap-shut system which keeps everything inside the bag bone dry. It is ideal for going to school or work, or for a short day trip in the wilderness. It is also useful as a weekend bag.

Looks good ... but haven’t tried it yet in water. Hard to roll on top maybe becos it’s new... Will update.

The media could not be loaded.  Muy buena mochila impermeable, yo empecé buscando en internet el top 10 de las mejores mochilas y esta está dentro de ese top.Vale mucho la pena el precio por la mochila, el material es de muy buena calidad las correas son muy cómodas, soporta bastante peso, es 100% impermeable, realmente tengo una semana con ella y ya la he usado mucho y no me ha dejado para nada mal. Yo compré la de 30 litros y es bastante bueno el espacio para poder guardar cosas.Está es una versión de mochila que no tiene bolsa adentro ni tampoco afuera , solo tiene un porta ánfora en un lateral y unos anillos en D para colgar cosas pero no confiaría ponerle mucho peso a esos anillos.Hay una versión que por bastante más dinero tiene para colocar dos ánforas , un cierre exterior y unos cordones para sujetar cosas . Realmente esa mochila se ve mucho mejor y estará más práctica para transportar cosas a fuera de la mochila , pero la diferencia es de alrededor de mil pesos (mx). Siendo sincero , sí hay la posibilidad de gastarse 1500 pesos por esta mochila o poco más de 2500 pesos por el otro modelo, hágalo vale mucho la pena estas mochilas.En mi caso esta mochila está perfecta ya que si necesito llevar más agua conmigo , bien puedo ponerla adentro , ya que sí tiene bastante espacio. Les dejo un video donde pongo a prueba la mochila en un rio .El reflejante de la mochila es muy bueno, las costuras también , las correas traen anillos donde puedes colgar más cosas, todas las correas son ajustables . Al comienzo sentirá duro cerrar la mochila, pero con el uso ya se siente más suave el cerrarla .

Very strong, very comfortable to carry long distance in the jungle. Everything dry inside after a day of hiking in heavy rain. Rain bath, mud bath, falling in the river with this bag. I am a big fan of the Overboard brand now. Don't know how I was living without that bag before.
