WaterSeals Locking Backpack + Waterproof Bag for Women & Men with Ripstop Material & Anti-Theft Combination Lock to Protect Wallet, iPhone or Valuables at the Beach, Pool, Skiing, or Camping, Black

I purchased this product back in January of 2021 because someone grabbed my wife’s earphones out of her gym bag, despite her only being gone from the room for maybe 30 seconds. This is a nice gym in a nice area, but I guess criminals know that typically you get a better score from nicer areas… What is very ironic and is a bit of “just dessert” to the thief is that the headphones that they stole were PowerBeats Pro that can ONLY be charged with the case which they did NOT take. So, unless they have a case for these types of headphones they are going to be pretty useless once the charge wears off in 8 hours. Very disappointing to put it mildly. Immediately we decided that we weren’t going to make it easy for the next thief to steal from her again if she left her gym bag unattended for a very brief time.This bag can be used for many things. I can envision this being very handy when we go on vacation and for example are in the pool or at a beach. Not very practical to take your things with you while you’re in the water. Day to day my wife uses it to take her things to the gym.If you’re looking for a bag that is going to keep a very determined criminal out, then keep looking. At the risk of sounding facetious I would say look into a small safe. All kidding aside you have to balance security with portability. This bag could be defeated by someone with a sharp knife, but I believe that it is very useful for two things. The first being that it’s going to make it a lot harder to do a “grab and run” if you secure the bag closed around an immovable object — for example a fixed piece of gym equipment or whatever. Wouldn’t make it impossible, just more difficult. The 2nd thing that I am confident that it will do is to make a would be criminal think “Heck with this one — I’m going to grab the bag over there that is completely unsecured — I can grab that one and run and then at my leisure I can see what goodies I made off with”.I believe that this bag is a good balance between portability and security. As I said it will make it more difficult for a would be thief. Very few things in life, if anything, is 100% secure if the criminal is determined enough. It’s all a matter of how hard it would be to defeat the security system. In this case the thief is likely going to take a pass and steal the person’s bag next to this one that is completely unsecured.As I said my wife uses the heck out of this bag! She goes to the gym almost daily and uses it every day. Knowing her she is probably not overly gentle with it, either. After 8-9 months of heavy use there developed a very small issue with the Velcro stitching coming loose. I emailed the company (Lewis N. Clark) and asked for them to honor their 1-year warranty. They replied within a few hours and happily agreed to do so. No arguments, no hassle, just good old fashioned customer service and they NEVER even once used or tried to use the “convenient excuse” (i.e. the pandemic) as to why they couldn’t or wouldn’t be able to handle my request. I am beyond sick of hearing that. C’mon folks — we’re 18 months into this. The rest of us have had to do our best and continue to trudge along since day #1. My customers haven’t lowered their expectations of me or the company I work for one iota. It’s refreshing to see a company returning to the “old fashioned” way of doing business — cut the excuses and help the customer out.The title says it all — “Awesome product with amazing customer service!”.

Love the bag! Was great for our cruise and beach days. Felt as ease when in the water knowing my things were locked to beach chair. It is very thin straps so I don’t see it lasting too long but great for travel. Easy and light to fold in suitcases.

I bought this for a beach vacation. We took it to the pool, beach and on the boat. Never submerged it but it was drenched on the boat and nothing inside got wet. I like that it locks (very easy to set combo). Being a backpack made it easy to carry. It was also easy to fold up and pack in my suitcase. One warning, I put a brand new beach towel inside it and when I pulled it out it got stuck on the one side of the velcro and snagged my towel. Just be careful if you put something nice inside.

This bag is perfect for a beach day. I bought this for a trip to Mexico. I was big enough to hold a ton of stuff, lightweight and durable. I loved the locking device and easily attached the bag to a permanent fixture or my beach chair. The peace of mind knowing my belongings and important things like my wallet were safe was the biggest peace of mind! This is something I will use the rest of my life when on outings.

I ordered this item in advance of a cruise I will be going on. As I went to pack for my cruise I followed the steps to input the code to engage in the locking feature. Unfortunately I have received a defective product! I’ve tried contacting the company several times, I’ve YouTube videos to make sure, I was performing the function corrrectly. Now unfortunately, I’m beyond the return window and I am unable to get anyone from this company to help!Save your money, do not buy this product! Also, it’s not actually a water tight dry bag!This is a waste of time having to receive any help from this company! I hope they see my review and will actually help me! I’ll happily review them again if they actually step up and provide any customer service! In the meantime I’ll need to purchase an additional product to replace this defective product that was sent to me!

This is a great beach bag when traveling alone! You can lock it around any stationary object, scramble the code, and go enjoy the water! Now, I’m sure someone could cut it open if so inclined, so don’t bring your life savings to the beach. Perfect to stash a towel, dry clothes, phone, keys, and some cash.

We took this to Cancun with us. It worked well as a dry bag. The lock worked well. I accidentally left it on a chair in our hotel lobby. It was sent to lost and found and they were unable to open it. Thankfully I had put our name on the outside so I was able to identify and claim the bag. Maybe if it had been a regular backpack the person who found it would have gone through it or walked off with it. As it was it was returned to us with everything intact including an underwater camera and some cash. If I’d not been so tired and locked it to a chair it would probably remained where I left it. We also used this to secure our valuables when we weren’t in the room, just locked it around the leg of the bed and tucked it out of site. No, it wouldn’t prevent a determined criminal from walking away with your things but it was probably more secure than the in room safe and definitely deterred opportunistic theft from workers on site. I’d say it was well worth the price based on my experience.

It was perfect to safeguard our valuables. Very easy to use
