are these bags weather/waterproof?

I have not had the bag in heavy rain or snow yet. It is not made out of plastic or material impervious to moisture but it's very well made and I'm guessing the heavy nylon it's made with would keep things dry inside.

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

not sure...they don't seal completely. Just a drawstring top. The bag material is probably fine enough.

Not sure because I have never dropped them in the water or had them in the rain, however I do believe they would be waterproof by the way they are made. Sorry I could be of know more help to you in this matter.Regards,Terry L. Shook

They a heavy duty canvas, so they are very heavyduty water resistant. I would not say water proof though.

We bought the umbrella's to use for shade for equipment operators so hadn't really thought of if they were waterproof. Looked on the box and it doesn't say. They are made of a thick cloth but I would say they are probably NOT waterproof.

Yes, they are rainproof. They have been through numerous storms, some severe, and have not had a problem with them. Excellent cameras and excellent customer service.

they are not waterproof but the moisture doesn't soak through quickly if subjected to some water. i haven't submerged them in anything so i can't speak to that..

I have had them mounted since July 4th on the outside of my vehilce. No issues and its been a wet summer here, they are sealed, so I would say that they are waterproof.

yes they can, but please note that these are not waterproof bags. They are really water resistant stuff sacks.

They are not waterproof, but they will handle light roadspray. Since I use them for commuting with dress clothes, I take plastic grocery bags and enclose anything that is inside of the pannier. I have had a few instances when going through puddles of water, that water has managed to get inside. They dry out quickly, so at the end of the day, they are not soaking wet for the next ride. I hope this helps answer your question.

They are rated for outdoor use, so yes they are water-proof. My are tucked up under the eaves of the house. It's a very good camera.

I would not trust them to be waterproof. There is no indication from the mfg. that they are.

Yes they are rainproof. I use them on my motorcycle with the jacket for a rain suit.

yes, its water resistant, i had it soaked in the rain and inside was pretty dry. I don't know about submerging the bag though...

They are not waterproof per se, but my camera and lenses were snug in my Lowepro bag when they rolled off a 10 foot high rock and landed in a 2in deep puddle, zipper down. Horrified, I scrambled off the rock and yanked my bag out of the puddle, and was amazed that not a drop of water got in my bag, and my dSLR and lenses were all unharmed. I will never own any bag except a Lowepro!!! Also, I have been caught in sudden rainstorms and have never had water get in my bag. Common sense should prevail though, and I wouldn't stay out in rain any longer than neccessary to get myself and the camera out of the weather.

They are not waterproof but they are thick. We haven't had any issues with things leaking through.

The fabric on the outside is vinyl, but the stitching on the sides would let rain in. More importantly, the zipper that holds the bag closed is at the top edge of the bag. The zipper edges are cloth and would let rain into the stuffing inside the bag, so it would get matted down and probably get moldy. So I would say no, it is not weather proof.
