If the zipper is truly waterproof, it will be a beast. After years working with a top loader, the ease of packing and unpacking is exhilarating.

Spacious. I'm a huge fan of the t-zip on the new expedition duffels. However, these still require diligence and cleaning to make sure they keep working to the highest level.

Very excited to have a bag that I keep full of extra gear in my drift boat when I’m on the water. Raincoats, extra waders, socks, a couple hats, a fleece jacket, pair of sweatpants, you know, just in case conditions change unexpectedly. All this fits and I can still put whatever else I need for the day in the bag also.I throw the bag on the floor of the boat behind my seat and have no worries about water in the bottom of the boat or if it rains or snows.

Great everyday dry bag for rafting. Stays dry, way easier to sort through than a traditional top close bag, stout material as always, and I really like the new metal hooks over the clips.

Just used this bag on a 5 day Sup expedition in Norway. It was water tight and easy to access.

Just got back from 5 day whitewater trip. This bag performed like a pro. No leaking, even after being submerged for 4 hours. Other bags leaked. Not this one. Highly recommencd.

My wife and I carried two of the 70l bags on an Arctic canoe trip and definitely had the best bags of the group. We were in and out of the bags several times a day, the zippered design allows for very easy, rapid, and efficient access. The zipper is easy to operate, give full access to the bag and seals tightly. These bags are really tough. The carry straps are long enough to carry the bag backpack style for portages. We plan to use these bags for mule packing too, they are that tough and easy to use. A note, when flying be sure and leave the zipper cracked a bit so air can escape. We were in a twin otter bush plane and saw that the bags inflated as we went to altitude and cabin air pressure decreased. The pilot commented, those bags have really good zippers. In a jet they might pop.

Have not put it in action yet, but I fully expect great performance. Like the dry suit zipper applied to this product. Makes for more storage capacity and easier to use than the traditional roll and clip dry bag approach.

I travel a lot for work. Use it as durable luggage. Needs internal pocket and bright colored interior to help in finding items during low light conditions.

Seems like an excellent purchase. I exchanged it from the 105L to the 70L only due to size. The 70L is air tight once you get the supplied sealant on the closure of the zipper. The 70L is still more than enough in size for any reasonable amount of gear. Everything seems well built and will be awesome on the river.

This bag is awesome. Disclaimer: I sent it back however and ordered a smaller size. I haven't used the new one yet but I definitely will, a lot. I ordered the 105L Flint color. The thing is HUGE. I'm not arguing that it isn't 105L, but empty I rough measured it at 8 inches longer and 2 inches bigger in diameter than it states. Either way though, it seemed built with sturdy seams, good handles, and a solid zipper. They send you a sealant for the closure of the zipper. Without it, it won't be water tight, but with it, while I was deciding if I could justify the need for a behemoth bag for a few days, i had it zipped closed full of air. I didn't leak out or become deflated, so it would have to be water tight. It has 2x straps that stretch over the bag to cinch it down across. Nothing for an end to end cinching. No internal support, so if whatever you're putting in it is heavy, it will sag to the middle. I would imaging this would be the perfect size bag(105L) for the wife and kids, and my sleeping bags and air mattresses all in one place. Probably fit the tents too. If its just for you, it would still have room to spare with all your cloths in, tent, sleeping bag, pad, and whatever else you could find. The problem would become the weight. Overall though, if you have the need for it, this is a quick, easy access, large, waterproof bag to throw everything in. And tie it to the raft with no crazy knot system.

I recently used this bag to travel to Ecuador and I never knew how many uses it could have! I used it as my carry on on the airplane. Then I used it as my gear bag for going to and from rivers down there. We throw our clothes in the back of pickup trucks and often travel through the pouring rain. The bag is so airtight that when I flew from sea level to 8000 feet, it was puffed up from pressure change, so I'll have no worries using this bag this spring on some upcoming river trips! I have the 35 L and that has been a great versatile personal sized bag. I will be getting other sizes for sure! I also love the blue color!

Although I have only had this bag for a short time, it has been very impressive so far. It seems to be completely waterproof, and the zipper is really easy to get open and closed, which means you can get the stuff you want when you want it and close it again quickly to keep the rest of your stuff dry, even on the fly! Only time will tell if it is truly durable, but the materials seem tough, and I expect it will last.
