Piscifun Dry Bag, Waterproof Floating Backpack 10L/20L/30L/40L

backpack is great, well-made, sturdy, and it looks good. kept my stuff dry, and i like that it floats. you can wear it with one strap cross-shoulder or two straps as a backpack (or no straps, it has a handle). i got the 10L, and on the pictures it looks like only the 30L has 2 straps, so i was surprised when my 10L came with 2 straps. very happy with it. mine is black+red, looks good enough to wear normally, not just on the water. the 10L is very big inside, can easily fit shoes and towel and phone and some snacks with room to spare. has lots of places where you can add carabiners to clip the bag to a paddle board or kayak or whatever. the front pocket was plenty big for a water bottle (or for the included waterproof phone case). i read a review that said it wasn't big enough for a water bottle, but i think they were just rolling the bag closed in the wrong direction -- you gotta roll it away from the pocket. my only slight complaint is that it's heavier that i expected, but i guess that's a good thing -- it's made of sturdy tough thick material. also, it smelled when i first unpacked it, but it does air out fairly quickly.

I purchased this for a white water rafting trip this summer and I am very pleased to report that it did a stellar job at keeping my items, as well as my friends' items dry while we were splashed and soaked with river water. I bought the 10L size and though it looked somewhat small, this bag held two coats, three cell phones, two water bottles, my wallet, among a few other items that I can't recall currently. And as I said, as we were thrown around and drenched with water, when I opened this bag after we were done, there was not a drop of water to be found inside. It also accompanied me in a hike down to a roaring waterfall. I came back looking like a drenched dog, but my objects inside were still dry. Just feeling it you can tell it is a very thick, rubbery material and it is well made. I also really like how the straps have the ability to be unclipped. It is very convenient for strapping said bag to either yourself or whatever watercraft you may be using. It doesn't float, so I'd say it's good to be able to keep it close by. Another thing to note, I have a Pelican Mustang Kayak, the one with the zip up case strapped in the back, and this fits perfectly inside of it. So if you're looking for something to stuff in there to keep your items extra dry, this will work great as well for that purpose.

Here's the real rundown. I literally read all the reviews and this is what I have to say: SURPRISES? It's better quality than I was expecting for the price on Amazon. One of the reviewers who gave it a low rating indicated that the straps are too long and it sits too low. Unless he's smaller than me at 5'-7", I'm guessing he put the straps on upside down. It does have to be oriented with the adjustment plastic thingy BELOW the pad. Unlike those who just plan to put the bag somewhere and not actually attending to it full time, I do plan to wear the bag all the time that it's in use so I did buy a sternum strap separately (see photo). It fits nicely and keeps it in place. For the price of the bag, I'm not too disappointed that it didn't come with one already. You'll notice I picked one that has a built-in whistle. Nice touch. WHAT SIZE? 10L is what's shown in my photos. You have the dimensions but what does that mean in the real world? This 10L is about the size of a hydration pack. See the photo of it compared to a full size #2 pencil. Yes, a 10L bag does look funny strapped to the back of a grown man b/c it's so tiny. I often travel light and select my bags to be small whether it be a work bag or diaper bag. A 20L I suspect would be closer to the size of an actual backpack. Anything bigger, you can imagine would just be more bulky. COMPARING TO THE GENERIC ONE: There's a generic unbranded version of this. Generally, I don't take the risk with generics when it comes to the importance of something needing to be water tight. The difference is that the Piscifun version has two characteristics the generic one is missing. First is the elastic cord. The generic one isn't elastic. It's just a cord. The Piscifun version also has an outside pocket for non waterproof things. The generic one is just sealed and doesn't allow you to actually put anything in there (at least that's what I'm gathering from the photos and reviews as I did not purchase the generic one myself). Both features were important to me and the price difference was minimal so I went with Piscifun which appears to be a good company? HOW DO I KNOW IT'S A GOOD COMPANY? I don't, but there's an insert that comes with the bag where the verbiage I feel is trustworthy. You'll also notice that the company takes the time to respond to reviews here on Amazon. I'm glad I bought from a small company to help support them. Great product at a reasonable price. If I need another one, I'll definitely buy it from them. I've already recommended it to friends. HOW DID I PICK THIS PARTICULAR BAG? The biggest deal for me is that this has two straps. It's a backpack. More on that later. The other dry bags available are typically a single strap for the 10L version (see photos). I also like that this has the elastic strap, exterior pocket and separate handle. Piscifun themselves says they're coming out with a version that has a water bottle holder. I would've waited, but I need this for a trip. WHAT AM I USING THIS FOR? Beach. I'll be wearing the bag while doing activities so I don't have to leave it unattended and risk getting stuff stolen. I did pick yellow so I can clearly identify it in case someone does find a way to snatch it while I'm not looking. CONCLUSION: Don't spend hours like me researching online to find the perfect bag. Just get this. It's a reasonable price, it's good quality, looks nice, has all the features you'd want (minus the water bottle holder which is coming in July 2019) and will most likely fulfill what it is you're looking for a water proof bag to do.

Recently, I have gotten into snowboarding and have found that I needed something to hold some snacks and water when I go places.... I have used the bag roughly 7 times now and have had NO issues. The bag is indeed waterproof, no water from the snow or rain has gotten into that bag when I wear it. It is pretty durable, I mean after falling down a mountain and it still being intact is pretty durable. That phone case is a joke, I had one just like it a long time ago that broke with my phone in the water so, wouldn't recommend really using it unless it's a last resort. The only reason I am giving a 4 star is because of a personal preference, many times the bag slips off, and I personally would have loved a chest strap to go with the bag. My review is really a 4.5 out of 5 stars!

I don’t review very many items, but after just getting back from two weeks in Hawaii I’m impressed with the bag... I use plenty of dry bags all the time as an avid kayaker and always around water during summer and hunting gear in fall and winter. Bought the 10L just to have something that didn’t take up room on my carry on (hate checking bags). This served the purpose for the beach and wasn’t too uncomfortable on hikes. Used it every day all day in Hawaii and still works great. Strapped it on on used it as a “floaty” for snorkeling in bigger waves, submersed at times and stayed dry. Did a few hikes 5 miles or so and it really wasn’t bad at all with the cushioned straps. I had a couple carabiners clipped on to the D loops on the handle. Use a carabiner and the elastic strap and can have waterbottle easy to get to and secure on the outside of the bag. And clipped snorkeling gear on the other. The plastic clips on the straps are not tough as nails but for 20 bucks I don’t expect them to be.... 500D is a good standard material for dry bags but lacks in abrasion and puncture resistance, think some of the people with bad reviews don’t understand that all dry bag materials have some flaws. There are dry bags made out of the same material for 5x the price. It’s a great bag. Think I’m going to add a few sizes and maybe just get a nicer set of straps and use carabiners to attach and ditch the plastic clips and make a really nice day pack. Great product!

I purchased the 10L to have a dry place for non waterproof electronics and etc while in the surf metal detecting. I actually did not expect waterproof, only water resistant to a point as I am submerged a good deal of time. Much to my surprise, after almost 2 hours of being below the water, I found the interior to be completely dry. I had put car keys, iPhone, billfold, etc in a Pelican mini case as backup because I really did not believe it would be leakproof, but it indeed was...very impressive. The straps are indeed generously long...easily adjusted. The 10L is perfect for smaller items and actually can hold a lot. My 10L came with 2 straps for use as a backpack, although could easily be used as a sling pack. The phone bag has proven to be completely waterproof as well....again, very impressive.

Looks like a good quality, it fits, easy to use, I didn’t try it in the water or the rain yet but the air doesn’t go out right away after I closed it so as it says, don’t keep it under the water to dive but heavy rain, splashing o water on the boat or something like this I do expect to work great. Definitely a good price. I only had to adjust the straps because they were way too long for me . The slider didn’t go to the needed point because the shoulder pad was on the way so I removed the pad and inserted it from the other side of the strap. This way it got shorter by 4 inches and was more manageable if somebody taller will be using it also. I separately purchased extra straps that could be positioned on the chest or the waist area to keep my hands free. I like the extra D-rings on the handle and the closure part. Planning to use it for the bottle attachment or something else.

This is not only perfect to carry your things to the ocean but will save your life if you get jumped by a big wave pulling you out. I live near a beach but I can never go in the water because my things can get stolen, or worse, I drown. Not a particularly strong swimmer. But wit this I can take my keys, phone, change of undies, small towel, emergency light, hand and feet paddles and anything else ( in zip lock bags) safely into the water. Super easy to use, toss into the bag and rolll up , lock and its air tight like surprisingly tight , you need a bear of a man to break the thick I mean thick plastic, its like a over ground pool material. The look is perfect. It's big and bright yellow allowing you to float for days anc to be seen super far. Pro tip: you can attach carabiners to the loops to attach a cord to your person, orange or yellow duct tape to the bottom for visibility, lights and sail for that too. If your forget everything else. This is the core of your day out in the water. Don't skip this, buy this first and build around it. Can't drive home wet, damaged phone or lost keys. And if things go bad, its a life line

Great product.

Sehr praktisch durch die unterschiedlichen Tragegurtoptionen. Das an der Tasche befindliche Netz eignet sich fantastischem bspw. Das Handy (in der handyhülle) mit aufs Wasser zu nehmen. So kann Musik gehört werden und es ist griffbereit für Bilder. Das drybag selbst ist absolut wasserdicht und stylisch. Beide Daumen hoch!

Good quality dry bag, added bonus of an iPhone case. Will use again.

Ist undicht...
