Are they water resistant or repellant?

These are supposed to be water resistant. I went into a creek and I was sure the pants would be soaked, but it beaded right up and it was dry. I have never been in a downpour, but at some point I am sure these pants will become truly wet.

They are water resistant. I have shaken dew and light rain off and not gotten wet. When they do get wet, they dry quickly.

Not sure about the terms but they deflect water. Raindrops roll off, but if you continued to soak them or doused them in water they would certainly get wet. They dry fairly quickly.

Everything I read prior to purchase says that they are water proof but I didn't use them in water.

Good question, they are water resistant. I have taken them in hurricane weather however and the items were only moist after trip. Good bags for the price but if you want waterproof try the Ortleib brand.

On the care slip it says "keep away from water and moisture". So I don't think they are.

I agree with some of the other reviewers: I'd say they are water resistant. No zipper probs here. If you want the waterproof, crinkly polyethylene (plastic) layer type, Aller-Ease makes those as well. Search for ASIN: B0017060TM.

I'm not entirely sure but after a year of owning them I would lean toward water resistant, but very strongly water resistant. In major downpours I still use a water cover over them (which also isn't completely water proof), and in light rains I just let them stand on their own. Haven't had a problem yet.

I wouldn't say that this product is water resistant. These covers will protect your shoes from a bit of moisture but water will eventually seep through.

The ones that I have are Black water repellent outside, and a soft light navy blue color on the inside. I have two and they zip together. Awesome for summer camping and backpacking.

Not sure, i haven't tried them in water. I think they are water resistant not water proof..

I would call them water resistant. The rain doesn't seep through the fabric, but does pool on the flooring. And, then your "stuff" will get wet on the bottom. But, if you're looking to withstand a quick rain shower they are good for a get away.

they are water resistant. I have never gotin anything wet. They are the best bags I have had, easy on easy off and durable. HAPPY TRAILS!

Yes they are water and sweat resistant but you cannot wear them swimming. You will have to get waterproof for swimming.

If installed properly they are water resistant, but if water gets in the unit it will fail.The electronics are not protected.

Water resistant, I'd say, yes. Waterproof, no. I sent mine through the washer by accident and it had some issues for a few days before completely drying out.

I've bought about a dozen of them for my back yard... I live in miami and i just had one good bad 2 weeks ago with not a lot of rain fall for the last couple of months. I would say they seem to be water resistant. But non the less happy with the product.

I had them for a couple months but I never really got them wet. They are sweat resistant

Not if you leave them out in the rain for hours or they are sitting in a puddle of water. I would say water resistant.
