Ultra Dry Adventurer Premium Waterproof Bag, Sack with Phone Dry Bag and Long Adjustable Shoulder Strap Included, Perfect for Kayaking/Boating/Canoeing/Fishing/Rafting/Swimming/Camping/Snowboarding

I bought my first UltraDry bag before going on a film production job to Tenerife. We had been warned that we would be working by the sea and then up at the El Teide National Park. The third largest volcanic crater in the world. A beautiful, austere and extremely dusty spot. I bought my UltraDry bag hoping that it would keep my essentials, dry and dust free - sunglasses, waterproof clothing, sun tan lotions, warm clothing as we were arriving at our locations often long before sun up. As well as phones and the technical equipment I would have with me. To my surprise my yellow UltraDry 20l bag surpassed my wildest expectations. Nothing got wet, everything was kept dust free. The team I was working with noticed and asked where I got the bag from. Our next gig, which we have just returned from, was in Colombia and was of an altogether different order. We were in the rainforest, on rivers, working from boats on the rapids of the Miel and Samana rivers, and Lake Prado. Two of our party had been on the technical recce and warned us that it was going to be tough with very very difficult working conditions. Everyone asked for UltraDry bags. So I bought a further 4 x 20l bags for everyone and a 5l bag for myself. Our working conditions proved to be far harder, more arduous and more demanding than anything I could have imagined. For the month we were in Colombia we were permanently wet - either from rain, sweat or because we were knee deep in water almost every day. The UltraDry bags performed superbly. To be honest a lot better than I did. I would recommend them in a heart beat. Light, durable, watertight with handles and straps in just the right places. The free waterproof phone pouch is gravy - but became essential. I appreciate that most phones are waterproof or at least resistant. But they sink. We found that in the airtight pouch when we dropped a phone in the river, it didn't sink like a stone and we were able to retrieve it. All of my team are now going to get 5l bags to compliment the 20l bags I got them. Our unit which was about 100 people, many asked about our bags, and said they would be getting one themselves. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. Simple, sturdy and they do exactly what they say they will - they will keep your kit UltraDry. Here are some photos to illustrate the conditions...

Very glad to have chosen this one from all the others as it seems well made with good strong but flexible material. Is a good size (aprox from base of shoulder down to bum). Is wide (aprox 2/3 width of an average door way). Haven't used it yet (am airing 1st as it has the 'rubbery' smell), but if no update then it means this was true to sellers info.

Superb buy and everything including phone is bone dry after testing :)

A really well made bag overall and the phone case that comes with it is also very good. Why not 5 stars? Well although it is good there is a minor problem, if you take it with you in the water with you swimming, it keeps your things dry until you get out of the water and open it and then you get a little bit of moisture inside the bag where the water has got trapped in the folds. Like I say it is a minor thing but worth noting. The other thing I marked down on it the phone case changing colour when coming into contact with sun cream. Yes, sun cream changes anything while to an off white colour and it did the same to this case. As you are more likely to be using this on holidays when you are wearing sun cream just don't be surprised when it changes to an off white colour. In summary, I would recommend this package as it does keep your things dry and it is a great price. Pros:- > quality bag which has large capacity. > comes with double strap to wear like a backpack which is handy > phone case is great under water and doesn't effect the camera too much for taking pictures underwater. Cons: > Phone case changes colour when comes into contact with sun cream >a little bit of moisture enters bag when you open it straight after coming out of the water

I have waited until I could put this bag to the test and I am happy to report it was well up for the job. Visiting Barbados we always like to walk the West Coast which can have some hazardous areas where you have no choice but to go through waist deep water. The waves can sometimes suprise you and in past years the"carrier bag" method has been a little underpowered. First impressions of the bag were that I thought I had bought a little big as there is plenty of room. I managed to fit all our gadget/electricals in the bag, towels, spare clothes and the dreaded overpacked girlfriends handbag and still had a little room to spare. The bag was immersed fully in water a number of times and kept eveything inside dry. Due to the material it can get a little hot in the sun but a little dip in the water soon cooled it. The handle is sturdy and the shoulder straps were ok. I will probably invest in some padding for these as the straps are basic and due to the weight, dug in a little, but this isnt criticising the design or bag as I knew what I was buying, its just something to consider. On a Catamaran one afternoon a few large waves hit the deck sending eveyone else scurrying to protect their belongings. Not me..I carried on drinking my rum , safe in the knowledge my property was well protected. Overall the bag was extremely durable and made those beach days less traumatic as eveything was secure. You can even use the clips to attach the bag to something like a beach bed, giving you a little piece of mind when leaving the bag to go swimming. An added security bonus! I dont normally write long reviews but felt this product deserved it. The added waterproof case is a nice little bonus. I put my phone and cash in this when swimming with no issues.

This product arrived promptly and was clean and well packaged. And by well packaged I mean it came in a sturdy re-usable clear bag that has a press-stud so you can use it to store some clothes or belongings in, then put it inside the main bag. There's even a hole on the bottom of the clear bag so you can fold the bag in half and still use the press-stud! I love that sort of attention to detail! And now, the waterproof bag itself... Also great!! I ordered the black 20L - that's about the size of two or three fully-laden toilet roll stands - and managed to fit all my camping gear in it, specifically: * 1-man bivy tent: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01M1VBFJX/ * Lightweight sleeping bag: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00M94394E/ * Self-inflating mat: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01M1VBFJX/ * Inflatable pillow: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01MDS4OKK/ And did I mention the clear plastic bag the product was delivered in? Yeah, that's in there too with change of clothing. And there's still a bit of wiggle room for some other bits and pieces. To ensure comfort I also ordered two non-slip strap pads (specifically these ones: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004R7LGO6/ - there are loads of others on Amazon) and they made the whole thing perfect. I've now got an entire camping holiday in a very comfy, lightweight and waterproof sack on my back. I'm really delighted how this little project has turned out - gone are the days when I'd be lugging something the size of an oblong poo-throwing chimpanzee on my back! Oh, and the phone case - almost forgot... I wasn't planning to use it, but it's small and the strap is smooth and comfortable, so why not?! Looks big enough to fit most modern mobile phones, and certainly my iPhone. I've not tested it fully yet, but it looks well made and should be suitable for your needs.

Exactly what i need to keep my bits dry while on the sea.

Excellent

Perfetta. La dimensione 20L è ottima per caricare tutto il necessario. Fantastica per la spiaggia, comoda per una due giorni

Ottima borsa impermeabile. Non è a tenuta stagna, quindi se completamente immersa in acqua questa entra dall'apertura. L'ho utilizzata in barca e per spostarmi a nuoto tra le spiagge e, fintantoché l'apertura della sacca è rimasta fuori dall'acqua, il contenuto è rimasto asciutto. Consigliata.

Bought and used this bag for an over night float trip. The second day, it rained on us on the river for over 4 hrs. Everything inside was still as dry as it went in. I only wish the had one bigger than a 30L. Phone bag worked great too. could still easily use my phone in the case.

Great bag. The wall thickness is sturdy and it is a huge bag that I put all my wet stuff in to bring home in the car so the car does not get wet. I love the handle so I can easily carry the bag and all my wet stuff from sailing.

Nice dry bag. I can carry a small soft sided cooler with 2 drinks and 2 sandwiches, and there's still room for my wallet, my wife's wallet, our cell phones and our car keys! It works great. Seems to be built pretty sturdy. I've already taken it on several kayaking trips with no issues at all. I recommend this to anyone looking to keep your valuables dry with peace of mind. Phone case nice too!
