I go offshore quite a bit, would this bag hold up to the conditions out there?

It's a pretty good bag. I would think it would hold up just fine. However...There is a similar one with wheels. My friend has that one. So if you look a little more I'd try to find the one with wheels. I carry about 75 lbs. Of gear and it's very comfortable.

The bag appears well made, sizable and affordable. I've been using mine for 3 months and haven't had a single problem.

Its not built to be water proof. It is slightly resistant to water, especially if you scotch guard the bag before first use. The fabric seems to be quite resilient to wear and tear. I have used mine for almost a year now and no wear marks or holes are evident. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure how rough the conditions are out there, but i'm very please with the bag, the quality and the sturdiness. It doesn't seem to be water proof, but is very sturdy and high quality. I would feel comfortable taking out there myself. The only other option would be a completely waterproof bag.

It is not water resistant. I used it on a two week vacation. Used it in light rain the bag was soaked. It's a decent bag but not for rugged use.

Probably not, it's a pretty sturdy bag, it should hold as much as will fit.

You could definitely pull that off. The quality is second to none. So, even packed tight, the bag will eventually mold to accommodate without showing any signs of failure.

This bag holds its own very well in the rain. I got caught in the rain about a week ago for about 40 minutes and nothing in my bag got wet.

I suppose you could, but after heavy use it might develop some cracks or tears that will let water in. I wouldn't reccomend it unless you don't care about the $60, it isnt the highest quality bag ever, but it gets the job done and has lasted me quite a while with no major defects so far. If you want to leave it out I would at least cover the top with some plastic so the rain would run off instead of gethering and maybe seeping in. I've never tested the water-proof qualities personally so I have no idea how it would hold up over time.

You bet. I used this bag for traveling overseas in the past now I use it for a range bag and carry all kinds of shooting equipment like mats, shooting jacket, spotting scope etc. the bag is huge and very useful.

Yes it will...there is a little bit of padding inside (mine, at least), but nothing heavy duty (padding wise)...but yea, it IS large enough and the bag itself should provide some protection as well...

That's a tight fit, but you should be okay. I love this bag though. Sturdy and durable. No flaws or issues since I've had it.

the bag is fairly stiff. The bottom side (when you lay it flat) has 2 plastic supports along with the brackets build into the bag that hold the slide out handle. I use it to lug my hockey gear around and it has held up well. I even hosed it out with water to clean it a few times and let it air out in the sun without problems.

I don't know. I never had it exposed to the rain. I really like the bag, however, and it seems to be well made.

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.

It depends on what you're trying to carry to the beach, but I would think so. I use this as my work/computer bag. I fit an ancient (i.e., rather large) laptop in the center laptop pocket, with plenty of space for folders and other odds and ends. It stretches, so I've been able to carry oddly shaped items in it with ease. Since it's neoprene, it's pretty much water repellant, and very easy to clean. The straps are comfortable and are surprisingly not too slippery, so I can imagine it would be good for lugging things across a beach!

Yes, my lunch bag has held up under some rather tough situations. My son has put his baritone on top of it. I have accidently left it outside and the bag still looks great. It also cleans up nicely. The zippers are strong, I tend to over stuff. This is very good lunch bag. I hope this is helpful.

Sure can! Really great bag. If you travel a lot. Carries your computer, files, toothbrush and a change of clothes. Lots of pockets to get you in trouble with the TSA. Got tens of thousands of miles on mine. Little dusty but still stout.

I use the 12 as a daily carry bag on my motorcycle to work, and I carry it around all day. It is plenty big for my computer, a pair of shoes, lunch, and the administrative and personal care necessities. The 24 would be way too much for me unless I was also packing a another pair of shoes and a gym bag. It is pretty heavy duty in construction. For rain, I recommend adding something to keep it and the contents from getting sloppy. I have not tested the degree of waterproofing.
