We very nearly bought a little boat recently. Whilst planning that purchase this came up on Vine. So we got it. Sadly the funds for the boat wound up getting spent elsewhere. But at least we’ve now got a waterproof bag!
This is quite portable although I think it can pack smaller than the case given its very thin material. This is waterproof to an extent however it most likely won’t last longer than one trip. The material is very very thin and a little tear is inevitable and that makes the waterproofing useless.
If you take good care of this then it is actually a great way to carry additional items without packing a chunky bag. The bag is actually quite large but shouldnt be loaded with heavy items. Perfect for water sports and taking to the beach.
This is an excellent size, holds your personal things safely and prevents them getting wet. Easy to use, it’s well made, with good seams
We used this for the first time recently on a hike and we’re seriously impressed with it.
Not only is it completely waterproof but it’s super lightweight too. It easily folds up and down (for storage in its own little bag).
The straps, although unpadded, are actually really comfortable to wear. My partner carried all of our water bottles in it so it was a heavy load.
It’s easy to use and the seal is tight.
We highly recommend.
Does exactly what you would expect. Good quality product and I had no issues with it.

I have a number of Dry Bags, most of which are more professional but that comes at a price. This bag is more than adequate for a day out in a boat, kayak or on a Paddleboard though. It’s put together well and comes with a bag for a mobile, other small device or wallet. What I like about this bag over my others is the straps to carry it like a rucksack. This makes it useful for carrying my wetsuit etc to the lake and I can use it to carry my wet stuff back to the car. I keep my clothes dry whilst on the water too. It has it’s advantages.
This bag is idea for packing things like my purse and phone when we go to the beach on holiday. It packs into a really small size with a handy carry handle but once it’s opened up it’s actually a really good size. It also came with a separate waterproof cover for my phone which gives extra peace of mind when we’re out on boat trips
This is a very practical Backpack. it is very lightweight and the capacity is great.
I like that they can be folded and placed in a bag for easy transport.
The quality is fine and is perfect for travel or just for a rainy day. The design is cool and comes with a phone protector, I like it and I recommmend it.
Really quite impressed with this waterproof dry bag – it is exactly as described – lightweight. Considering this it packs plenty in including lots useful features for less than 17!!
It was ideal for an afternoon at the beach recently so very happy to give this full recommendation.
Handy for longer bike ride’s I found this really was rain proof when i got court in a few shower’s. it wont stand up to really heavy downpours I think, like storm type downpours but for the usually rainy days it’s pretty good. the bag’s comfortable to wear and it does fold up pretty small so easy for transportation and storing away. you can also fit quite allot into it as well so it’s no small by any mean’s.
I quite likes this bag.
Compared to others I have, it seals equally well but it is made of a much lighter and thinner material.
So it is handy to carry on trips or the the beach inside another bag.
It is reasonably comfortable to carry with the straps and the seal is pretty good, it traps even air inside so definitely watertight.
The small telephone pouch is a nice addition and transparent enough to take photos.
I really like this bag and use it all the time. Every time I walk to the shops, I take this bag. It comes in its own little stuff bag so you can just carry it or hook it on your belt. If I go for a walk to the beach, I pop in an extra bit of clothing just in case. It easily carries all the bits and bobs I need and has a water bottle holder on each side. Even with stuff in it, it’s pretty comfortable despite the thin shoulder straps and it weighs almost nothing.
It seals as all waterproof bags do, by rolling the bag opening and clipping it closed. I have heavy weight bags that do the same thing but this one is great for every day use when you’re not really sure if you need a full weight rucksack.
The phone case is pretty cheap but equal to some other cheap ones I have. It will certainly do for most things that involve water although I would definitely avoid fully submerging it as I’m not sure it will stand that.
Will it last? It probably won’t last forever. The material is thin, lightweight material which is exactly what gives it it’s charm. It will certainly last a summer or so, depending on how you treat it. At just over 15, you can’t go wrong with this one.
Easy to carry, kept all my gear, including phone, bone dry, despite me capsizing my kayak.
This is great, totally waterproof, stylish, great size and comfortable. The free phone case was a bonus. Highly recommended
Upon receiving this back I was a little disappointed being 100% honest. I work offshore and my hobbies mostly have the sea or lakes involved so this could have been the perfect item for me.
When I opened the package I immediately realised this this is a very lightweight back and I would not go running with it (as advertised) with anything other than some light cloths packed within it.
Other than that it has what looks like a decent quality waterproof seal. The bag itself again it made of a thinner material than I expected but does seem to be waterproof.
The phone case that comes with the bag also works fine and fits my iPhone 11 was ease.
I have given this bag to a younger 13 year old family member that I feel is more suited to it as she also is during the summer months jumping on and off a ski boat or out for day trips at sea.
So to sum things up I feel it is super lightweight but because of that it may not be as durable as others.
This is why it’s dropped a star.
Thanks and I hope this review has helped
This is a great, waterproof, incredibly lightweight, backpack.
It folds down like a pack away waterproof jacket into its own attached pocket.
It is great for your swim stuff and towel or to put your clothing in when at the beach or doing water sports.
Being thin and lightweight it adds no extra bulk or weight to your items.
It’s comfortable to wear when you have soft items in it. You would need to carefully wrap an iPad or tablet, other hard devices or items as these may dig into your back or get damaged as this bag has no internal solid structure or padding of its own.
It has adjustable length shoulder straps and would fit most sizes.
It has a roll down top and is rainproof. I haven’t tried to totally submerge it, but it does hold air, like a ballon when closed so I think it is waterproof and would float.
The material seems strong and air drys very quickly.
In addition to the larger main compartment, this backpack has two outer open top pockets that are great for drinks bottles . There is useful a zip pocket on the front that is not waterproof.
There is a waterproof phone case included. This can be tested with a tissue put inside first to check for leaks. I would then use an old phone to take photos or video as I never fully trust these things with my latest phone.
This is a well made, great value bag and I can recommend it.

This is a very handy and useful bag. It is very thin and light, it can be rolled up and stuffed into your pocket quite easily as it forms a very small tight pack. Once opened it has the usual back-pack things but what makes this special is that once items are in the back, you fold over the top 3 times then clip it together forming a ring which makes the bag watertight. There is also a second small pouch with a draw string hanging from the back, this does not have a waterproof seal though but there is an additional clear watertight pouch for you to put your phone into. On the back of the bag there is an outer zipped pouch and each side it’s zip there are reflective strips which are excellent if you are out in the dark.
Although it is aimed at water sports, it doesn’t seem strong enough material. I will probably use it when going shopping or trip to the beach, swimming baths, water park etc.
Folds up small, waterproof, and see-through phone pouch is nice addition.
At the time of this review this bag is 15.16 and has a 20% off voucher which is great value. The bag feels durable even when camping in the great English weather. I’ll be using this at a festival later this year and feel it will be perfect for the job.
So far love the ultra light weight for travel with water prod feature
Although the bag itself is thin it has triple stitched taped seams so I am confident that it will keep the contents dry and would be good as a standby/emergency or overflow bag rather than your main bag
The phone case on the other hand is monumentally c**p brittle, cheap and wouldn’t trust it with my phone.
This bag is great, it rolls up into a small bag and comes with a waterproof phone thing too. Great for rainy days as well as hiking as you never know if it’s going to rain. Perfect!
This is not what I expected but I am pleased with it. I have a number of dry bags made of heavy duty material. This however is more like a nylon type. It is thin and packs up into its own packet. Opened up it is quite a large 20 bag. It has shoulder straps but they have no padding. It does seem water proof. I will make good use of it. I think the price is fair, especially as the phone case is included.
I have owned several of these types of bags over the years and they are very useful. Either for keeping stuff dry in your bag or throwing wet stuff in to keep everything else dry. This bag is super lightweight and comes in its own carry pack. Once opened it can fit a fair bit in, enough for a small hike or cycling etc. it has an outer pocket with storm zip and side pocket. The only thing I would say is this is not designed for a lot of weight, firstly the straps are not strong enough and secondly it would be uncomfortable to carry without any hip support. So if you are looking for a nice lightweight dry bag this is definitely one to consider especially at the current price just over 15.
An excellent ultra-lightweight waterproof bag with a large capacity to fit up to 20L of items. It can be easily folded away back into the sewn-in pouch. It is designed to be used as a backpack, there are extra pockets to fit a water bottle and a zipped front pocket. Air does get trapped inside the bag when you try to flat pack. You also get a protective phone pouch with a lanyard for your mobile phone. I have tested the bag with running water and the droplets repel from the material.
Really pleased with this bag, it is perfect for being outdoors for a long time. It is lightweight and there is so much space inside. As the material is thin, I’d recommend that items stored inside are not too heavy. Although the material is thin, it is excellent quality and breathable when on your back for long periods of time. Its great how it can be packed away into a small bag and I love how the main pocket doesn’t seal with a zip, this is a good feature for persons who may struggle with grip. Definitely recommend
A Useful waterproof ‘dry’ bag with a lot of uses.
My son has been using this inside his backpack when he goes climbing Munros. It adds no weight to his rucksack and keeps his provisions dry in the event of rain.
Its roomy and well made and comes with a handy waterproof phone case

I am off shortly for a week away in the southwest coast of England. This backpack will be suitable to take a few items in case needed on walks. The backpack is lightweight and packs into a small bag. Expanding this reveals the closure PVC strips that will close and can be folded to make a good seal and the clip to hold the in place. I note the the carrying straps are easily adjustable to fit as required. I will be making use of the bag not only during trips but local trips when the weather is not so good to local amenities. I am pleasantly surprised with the quality and simple usage as to how the backpack can be applied and routinely used.
