When it comes to keeping your gear safe and dry from the wet elements, there’s actually a big difference between a bag that’s water-resistant and one that’s truly waterproof. You can count on the former to handle a few bursts of rain, while the latter keeps water out absolutely. Filson takes this a step further with their Backpack Dry Bag, which is rated to handle even total submersion in water. But unlike a traditional dry bag, Filson’s design features a comfortable backpack design that’s easy to tote with you on all your journeys, and its extensive organization and modularity options make it a perfect choice for travel and outdoors everyday carry.
The secret behind the Filson Backpack Dry Bag’s superior waterproofing is built into the 840D nylon shell with an extensive coat of waterproofing compound and sealed shut at the seams. Filson employs TIZIP waterproof zippers to give you easy access to the interior while maintaining a watertight protective seal when the bag is closed. Once open, the bag offers 28 liters of space that’s plenty to hold a change of clothes and other travel essentials, and an internal organization pocket holds smaller items so they won’t shift as you move about.
The bag also has numerous waterproof side pockets, including a transparent front pocket for identification purposes. There’s also a quick-access mesh side pocket and small mesh pockets on the bag’s comfortable straps. To help you steady a load on your back as you trek, there’s a sternum strap and a hip belt, and the belt features MOLLE-compatible webbing for further customization options. And when you need to store the bag outdoors, you can tie it down with the D-rings at its rear to prevent it from getting away from you when you least expect it.
And if you’re looking for a smart way to carry your toiletries and other small essentials, check out Filson’s Rugged Twill Travel Kit as well. It’s a tough twill and Bridle Leather dopp kit that’s sized right at 5.5 liters to hold your most important items on the go, and comes with rustproof brass zippers to match the aesthetic. It comes fully lined with waterproof nylon that works both ways: if your toiletries spill in your Travel Kit, the rest of your gear gets spared from further damage. This is especially important in waterproof bag because there’s no way for liquid to run off, making the situation worse if you carry tech gear like cameras, tablets, and laptops. And aside from the performance and functionality of the Rugged Twill Travel Kit, it has a touch of class thanks to a handsome leather trim that contrasts well with the tan colorway of the rest of the exterior shell.
Both Filson’s Backpack Dry Bag and Rugged Twill Travel Kit offer something most other EDC bags and pouches can’t: extreme waterproof performance that you can have confidence in. And both bags perform this function while providing you convenience and utility with designs that aren’t empty waterproof black holes without options for organization and quick access. And in the case of the Backpack Dry Bag, it makes for a comfortable long-term carry too. The best part is that for a limited time, you can save up to 50% off on select at items at Filson’s online store, with even more savings the more you buy.
