Earth Pak Waterproof Backpack with Roll-Top Closure, Front Pocket, Cushioned Back Panel & Phone Case (Black, 35L)

Awesome bag... Got the big one as it rolls down to acceptably sized for general use. Gets all my tech gear to work in a rain storm bone dry on a motorcycle. High visibility and reflective trim is a bonus. The chest strap could be lower and the straps a bit more padded for hikers... But it's brilliant for a motorbike where the pillion seat carries most of the weight. Would buy again... Better value than the Oxford equivalent. Waterproof phone pouch may be useful too 👍

EDIT ------------------------------------------------------- I have had a four days trip to Wales on a Motorcycle and we got caught a few times in very serious downpours, one where I got soaked to the bones but this backpack worked well and nothing got wet inside. Comfort wise, the straps do their job and it was easy to carry on the motorcycle or when walking. The capacity is aready sufficient at the minimum size (straped tight) but I know it can take a lot more. That the last bag I was considering taking for the trip but that was really the perfect one. I'll use it every time I know it'll be wet and muddy. ORIGINAL REVIEW ----------------------------------------- I usually review only things I absolutely like or items I regret having bought. This bag here seems of excellent quality for this kind of price, although I have yet to really test it. The shoulder straps are pretty thin but this should be OK for those using this backpack with jackets. If it's not your case, you can get some cheap shoulder pads to add some comfort (I'll probably do it myself). Two tights pockets inside (zipped and a net), big enough for documents or a phone. The bottom doesn't have any reinforment cover, so the main seams are exposed. It's probably best not to drag it on a rough surface, like a road. But we all know that items of this price range must be handled with a certain care anyway. What actually really impresses me is the phone case. First it was there (some review said they didn't have one). It's made of the same material as the bag with a hard shell at the bottom. The closing mechanism is easy to operate and pinches the case tightly closed. Now, the most impressive part is actually that this case fits my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra with its rugged case on (Spigen Tough Armour). A nearly 7 inch screen phone with a big rubber case. Really astonishing! I thought it would go straight to the bin but this waterproof phone case is actually really useful. I can still operate the screen through the plastic and it'll be good to have when using my phone as satnav on the motorcycle and rainy days. (Apologise for the bad pictures, I couldn't use my phone...)

Ive had this bag a long time now and about to purchase another. If you want a well made, strong and durable wet pak, i can highly recommend this backpack. It has a handy pocket on the front with a very sturdy zip, strong arm straps and is large enough to carry all my gear when backpacking, camping and kayaking. This bag really does stand up to being thrown around and treated ruff but still stays waterproof

I’ve had the Earth Pak Waterproof Backpack for over a year now, and it’s been an excellent choice for outdoor activities, especially when it comes to keeping my gear dry. The heavy-duty roll-top closure and waterproof design have kept my belongings protected even in heavy rain, and the adjustable straps make it comfortable to carry. However, I’ve now noticed that the bottom of the backpack started to wear away, exposing a hole. This is a bit disappointing considering how durable the rest of the bag has been. I’ve been using it for hiking, kayaking, and other outdoor activities, and while the backpack still works well, the hole at the bottom is something to be mindful of if you're planning to use it in rugged conditions. Overall, it’s a great bag with fantastic waterproof capabilities and ample space, but the wear on the bottom could be improved for better long-term durability.

This is a great bag for travel. When rolled down the physical size will fit with most decent airline carry on luggage. Because of the roll top you can change the physical size if the bag with ease. I have made a foam insert to give additional security to the contents. When wearing, it fits comfortably and is easy to wear for prolonged periods of time. It seals well and protects your belongings from water. It floats without concern based on the fact the you are quite unlikely to load it to a point without and buoyancy. The real advantage of this bag is it rolls down well and is still usable without bulk when carrying very little gear but it can be fully expanded to take 55 litres of gear. The back is flat with a semi circular front. Well designed well produced, I can't comment on ling term durability but the guarantee suggests it should last the test of time or you can return it. Have had several dry bags over the years but this seams the best so far, would definitely recommend. This has become my go to bag for kayaking, paddle boarding, out on my bike and international travel. My only recommendation would be an additional bag tidy as an interior. I made one from EVA foam for my laptop and cameras.

Excellent 👌 Looks perfect! One of the best bags I’ve bought. Even the 35L has plenty of space for day-to-day use. It also has convenient pockets inside and outside for my wallet, glasses, keys, and more. The material is super durable and waterproof too!

Just arrived so I haven't used it yet but it looks ideal. Well made, roomy but not too big, it should be great for my next hiking adventure

I was looking for a waterproof bag that I expected only to be using for our trip to Bali. Something that could be taken through streams, waterfalls and splashing waves of fast boats between islands. This backpack was exactly that! I got the 35L backpack and it was perfect for our trip and it was our main traveling pack once we landed there. I had taken this through almost neck deep water and all of our stuff was safe and dry. I took this through water falls and had absolutely zero worry about our camera gear, towels or phones. I was extremely comfortable and what I also like is that as its only a single large compartment, the only way to access the stuff is by unclipping, this means that if someone does attempt to get in there, you will certainly notice. Long term use: As above, I bought this for a trip to Bali and when I got back I was so happy with it that I kept using it for my commuter bag. This bag has been absolutely perfect, it fits in in the city setting, as it's waterproof then all my work stuff is gonna stay dry and save, and finally it's tough as hell. Currently it's been 8 months and I've been using this pack everyday with no holes or damages anywhere. I've already taken it to other trips and it's also a perfect carryon bag, it holds everything I need and quick to grab. This thing is super tough and I'm totally going to continue using it for future trips.
