How waterproof is the bag?

It is water resistant not waterproof....i would definitely recommend getting a rain-cover for it.

No. I learned that one unintentionally. The regular size Kelty rain cover fits this bag.

This like the majority of others isn't made to be waterproof, the intent is weight savings. They have a rain cover available for that purpose.

No, not waterproof, but t you would be hard pressed to find a bag similar to this that is waterproof. The 600-Denier Poly/Canvas does a good job at holding out any water.

No, not if the bag is closed. The whole point is for it to be waterproof, if you have head phones hanging it out water could enter.

I have had the bag for close to two years and still love it. However, I don't think the bottom is waterproof. It's a heavy woven material for most of the bottom. There are at least two or three layers of material for it to soak through though. Maybe you could use a waterproofing spray?

Rach, It seems to be water resistant but not water proof. It began to rain on one of my hikes and everything was dry...it was a light rain, though so I'm not sure how much it could take. Sorry I couldn't be more help - it IS a great little bag, though!

I would not consider this bag waterproof in any way..the divider has a "plastic" coating on the outside but is very on the top, the rest of the liner has a soft plushlike finish. I have never gotten this wet so have no idea of the outside. However I love the bag..while traveling in Europe last year I used the outside pocket for items that would normally be in my handbag (wallet in pants pocket)..it is very roomy... I have put my ipad between the liner and the back of the bag.. I carry one extra lens, mini tripod, extra battery...and whatever else gets shoved in...

You're welcome. Try to look for a bag that is advertised to be waterproof, else wise you may not be able to make claims in case the product doesn't satisfy you for that reason. Best of lucks!

The bags are water resistant, but not completely water proof. We have not had anything get wet in the bag as of yet.

Hi,This bag is not waterproof, only water resistant for a very short time. If you need a waterproof bag we offer them or bags with waterproof covers covers offer others on Amazon. Thanks

I doubt it's waterproof, it's an inexpensive bag. I wouldn't trust it in a thunderstorm

The square bag is not removable and is not waterproof though it is quite water resistant. I normally put shorts, tee shirt and even a cellphone in there while diving and they stay dry unless it gets a drenching. The bag has been great and even rides well as a back pack when riding a scooter in Cozumel

I've used this bag every day for a few months now and it has been pretty water resistant. I can walk in the rain and not worry about the stuff inside getting wet.

I would not say that it is 100% water proof per say. This is because non-water proof cloth materials are also used to made the comfortable padding behind the bag and the zippers. Hope this helps :)

Well, never had to test it out, but I would say probably not totally leak-proof. The inside lining is a very soft material, as is the outside of the bag.

No this backpack is not waterproof or resistant...I'd recommend keeping a poncho handy inside the bag...

I agree with Mystri and Buckwheat. The zippers don't appear to be water proof, so water will get in if the bag is subjected to heavy rainfall or a deluge of some sort. Ordinary rain or drizzle should be no problem though.

No, it's not waterproof. If you must keep it dry, wrap it in a water-proof garbage bag.
