Is this pack really waterproof? I read all the reviews and hardly anyone mentioned it being waterproof...

I haven't really had it out in the rain yet.. So I'm not sure how waterproof zippers are.. But the material is waterproof

Unfortunately I did not have a chance to test the bag to be waterproofness. I returned it for a larger back pack. The quality was very high with this bag. And the material seemed like it would be very waterproof. If the size fits your needs I think it is a high quality bag for the price.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe I did read that somewhere that it is but I cannot find the documentation I had with it. However, I believe it would be waterproof in a light rain. I do not believe it would be water proof in a heavy rain. It also does not have a floor in it so when the ground around it gets wet, that would eventually seep into the "dry" ground area under the "tent".

I'm really not sure. I know they have these that say they are waterproof on the package. I'm just not sure exactly how waterproof it really is.

It is not water-proof. I sheds water fairly well though. In my experience, unless you fork out the money for a true dry-bag, backpacks are never waterproof after about 30 minutes in the rain.

I have not submerged it in water completely but my instincts tell me no. It is extremely drop and dirt friendly. But to say it is %100 perfect waterproof I think would be a stretch. The company website says it is but I still wouldn't put it IN water. It is definitely splash proof and a quick dip or rain won't hurt it. So if you have it clipped to your pack or somewhere where it won't always be in water I think you'd be ok. If I had the money I would test it out but I'm not that interested to put the radios life at risk. Hope this helps!

Hi, Rebecca. This case is awesome in many ways. Is it water resistant? I would say no. As an avid hiker and back country camper, I've had the opportunity to test (and need) a lot of of water resistant gear. Water has an incredible capacity to soak through materials that seem, at first glance, to appear water resistant. I feel this is the case with this product. My case is sturdy, and lives in my day pack, but if it's raining, it's going inside a water proof pouch. The shell is made of molded EVA-plastic, but water can easily seep into the seams at the corners and the zippers. Hope this helped. Hi, Rebecca. This case is awesome in many ways.

I can't answer this from my usage, but the Amazon product description does not indicate that it is waterproof.

Sayaka, I was in Florida for eleven days, out of the eleven it rained almost every day. Yes it is waterproof, if your asking if you can submerge it under water, I can not answer that. All I can tell you is when it was pouring in Florida like it does during the rainy season, everything in the bag said dried. I truly recommend the pack, it is one of the best backpacks I have ever bought and I truly enjoy using it for day trips, school and at places I have to wait. I have no complaints. I hope this answers your question.

Not sure if my answer went thru and if it did please forgive the repeat...yes it's great as a daypack, that's how I use it now. I bought it as a waterproof bag for whitewater rafting and learned it's not waterproof at all!! But as a daypack it's perfect.

No, My computer and papers got wet in the rain although I carried it on my back during the rain because I was concerned about taking it through puddles. I'm not sure how it does with puddles, but it is just like any other back pack in the rain. If it soaks your clothes, it will soak your pack and everything in it. I used it for about 6 weeks until the wheels fell off (I had two different backpacks for about 3 weeks each, so its a design flaw, not a defect). It is spacious so you could just put your things in garbage bags to keep them dry

Yes this item is waterproof! We use it all the time at the beach. We live near the breach do we are always there and would leave home without this water proof bag for our iPhones. Hope this helps!

No this backpack is not waterproof. Despite that it has proven to be quite durable in everyday use.

I am using the pack in Arizona, so I have not used it in the rain. It appears to be water repellent and the zippers are protected with an overlay of fabric.

I am not sure about this, but I think it isn´t water-resistant. Nonetheless it is a very good backpack! I love mine..

No,it's not waterproof. I keep mine in a large zip lok bag when backpacking here in the Pacific North West. Get's pretty wet around here and this seems to work out. A small dry bag is also a good option. Hope this helps.
