Skog Å Kust BackSak Heavy Duty Waterproof Backpack - Gear Bag for Sports, Travel, & More - 25 & 35 Liter Sizes

Absolutely LOVE this 35L backpack. I purchased it in bright yellow! :) I was planning a sailing trip from Oahu to Maui & needed a nice dry bag to pack my stuff in. When the boat keels over, sometimes stuff can get thrown around. The cabin soles can be wet so I wanted something to keep all my stuff dry but still was a reasonable cost. I had made the mistake of using a regular duffel bag last time I sailed to Maui which left some of my clothes inside soaked. This time, I wanted to have a drybag!I found this dry bag while browsing on Amazon. Originally, I had bought the 60L duffel from Såk Gear but after receiving it, I realized the 60L was a bit bigger than what I needed. I returned the 60L (easy return with UPS!) & bought the 35L instead.Of all the drybag backpacks, I had browsed, this one I think is the best! It's roomy enough to easy fit everything in but isn't too large where it would be awkward to carry. The 35L has a padded back & padded straps which make it more comfortable to carry. There's also a buckle strap that comes across your chest. I especially like the two zipper pockets. I use the inner zipper pocket to put my phone/wallet which keeps it dry & also makes my phone/wallet easy to access quickly. The outer zipper pocket is great for some small items that I might need a bit more frequently like chapstick, sunscreen, etc.Tip: Buy packing cubes. Dry bags are typically just 1 large compartment. To sort out my stuff a bit better, I bought some packing cubes to make my own for clothes, toiletries, towel, etc.Overall, great dry bag. It was $54.95 plus free shipping with Amazon prime. I live in Hawaii so typically shipping is more costly than on the mainland so any sellers that offer Amazon prime are great in my book! :)***EDIT: March 13, 2020. I loved this 35L bag so much that I bought a 2nd one in a smaller 25L size in "Mint" for hiking trips. The price increased a bit to $59.95 for the smaller bag, but I'm happy to pay it! Great quality, huge fan! And, the newer model has a few extra compartments INSIDE the bag. Would recommend!

I purchased this waterproof backpack after doing some research on Amazon. There was a specific bag I wanted from a rival company, but the online reviews seemed to indicate that it wasn't made all that well. (shoulder straps coming apart and such)I wasn't looking so much for a 100% waterproof bag, I just need something to carry my wetsuit, wax, towel, keys, water, phone, blah blah to the beach without getting everything sandy and covered with schmutz. (I've previously been transporting my gear with reusable grocery bags, so anything is a step up!)I've only used the backpack a few times, but it is great and gets the job done. Seams seem sturdy and it is very comfortable. There's a bit of a learning curve with the top opening versus traditional zippers, but it is fine. The front pocket is great for storing things you need immediate access to like your phone.As for the design, it might be cool if they put some drink holders on the side, but not a deal breaker.Bottom line: It keeps your belongings dry and clean, it's lightweight, it appears to be solidly built and is very comfortable. Recommend.

This bag was not cheap but it is well worth the money I spent for it. First off this is an outstanding wet weather bag, anything inside of this is NOT getting wet. The capacity of this bag borderlines on ridiculous, I can fit about two standard size brown paper bags full of groceries in this bag, and it doesn't become unwieldy in the slightest. Wet weather bags like this have traditionally lacked in the aesthetics department. I've actually received compliments on how nice this bag looks a few times now. I have been using this bag regularly to go back and forth to the grocery store on foot or bike, twice a week, in a very rainy region for over a year now and it still looks and works as good as the day I took it out of the box. Thank you Skog Å Kust, whatever that means.

I am using this to commute in almost daily rain on a motorcycle to and from work with stuff that can't get wet, obviously.When I first got this out of the box I worried that I had gotten a size too big. I have a ridiculously large (i.e old) work laptop. This bag swallows it up. And my rain gear. And boots/shoes. However it really conforms to the load just due to the nateure of the design. It's also quite comfortable and easily adjusted which I do frequently depending on what I'm wearing. So with all that, I'm really glad I got the larger size.The pockets inside and out are nice and just enough in my opinion. There is a ton of room in this bag and it goes without saying it stays dry in the rain. My old bag was a high end brand that cost quite a bit but wasn't up to the task of the weight of my PC and wasn't waterproof. This is a vast improvement overall from that in comfort and piece of mind.My one wish is that I think the straps and buckles could be a bit beefier. I've been using this for about 2 weeks with zero issues. The buckles are kind of an interesting design so we'll see how long they last, hopefully a long long time. Anyway, no issus but I feel like this bag is such a heavy duty bag (my opinion) that thicker straps and beefier buckles woudld be nice.Overall 5 stars. Great for the money. Looks sharp. Zero worry about water getting into bag. Suprisingly comfortably with heavy/large loads. That's my 2 week opinion, very glad I got this one.
