Buffalo Gear Waterproof Duffel Bag Large Dry Bag Backpack for Travel, Motorcycling, Cycling, Hiking, Camping, Kayaking, Boating Swimming Rafting and Watersports

I have yet to put this bag through the ringer in the wild but so far I am impressed. It's definitely air tight - I closed the bag and squeezed hard without any deflation or air escaping. There is an internal zipper mesh pocket, which is practical to store items, as well as an additional internal back panel organizer. The organizer isn't going to store much though and not as practical. The zipper is difficult to grip since there is no "zipper pull" but i bought one cheap and it makes the zipper much easier to use. I also didn't like the bungee cord color on bag and replaced this with a cheap one and now it looks better. As a cheap alternative to the Yeti backpack, I am glad I found this one and excited to test it more thoroughly. I will update this review after a summer of wear. Using primarily for fly fishing in the rocky mountains and will bring camping to keep valuables dry. Wish there was some kind of molle panel like on the yeti backpack to attach things to.

This backpack is so cool! My husband and I kayak in the summer, and before we bought this backpack, our gear was always getting wet when we went through rapids, even small ones. This pack keeps ALL the water out. It is large, and has tons of room for all your stuff, plus pockets and keychain clips on the inside for your small things.Because it is so water and air-tight, if you are going to leave it in your car on a hot summer's day, I recommend leaving the zipper partly open to allow trapped hot air to escape, or your pack could pop like a can of biscuits (hasn't happened to me, just a recommendation).I think I paid about $50 for this pack after scouring Amazon for days trying to find the right one to meet our needs. Needless to say, it's totally worth it! The YETI one that is super similar, down to the material, color, and overall shape, was over $200, so I feel like I got a pretty good deal!!!

This backpack is exactly what I was looking for. I needed a waterprook pack to use fly fishing the MA and NH coast. For the price, it can't be beaten. Waterproof fly fishing backpacks typically cost 6 times the price of this pack. The seams are solidly welded. The straps are comfortable, and the chest strap relieves stress on your shoulders. It has a strong zipper that isn't difficult to open. There are a couple of additional slim pockets on the inside of the pack. There is enough room to easily fit 2- Cliff's Bugger Beast boxes and a packable rain jacket.

I purchased this duffel for a motorcycle trip from california to michigan. It only saw one rain storm but kept all of my gear dry. The bag was so airtight that it ballooned from the pressure changes crossing the mountains.Size is great as it works for a carry on. It will fit a full face helmet and riding boots.The bag has a backpack harness but I would have preferred a shoulder strap to carry it.

I love my bag, It is not a yeti panga, but it does its job. Seals very well against the water and comfortable. The material is very thin and you will have to be more careful, the pockets inside are very good and the price is excellent. It would be better if the material were thicker. I love.

This is one heck of a great waterproof duffle bag. Solid construction throughout & a great watertight zipper! Best part for me is the backpack straps ..which are removable. Love this bag!! Highly recommended & will recommend this to family & friends

This is a well made bag but the waterproof zipper is a bugger to open and close, even when lubricated with the included lubricant. Would opt for a roll top bag next time as they are easier to open and close.

I ordered the 30L size to carry my camera with a long lens attached in my kayak. I've only used it once but everything in the pack remained dry, and expect it to perform well for some time. There's plenty of room for my camera and a few other items, and room to add some foam padding which I plan to do.
