How water-resistant are these? Not trying take them sailing, but would like to be able to go out in the rain and get the mail.

I wear mine outside all the time, usually on short trips like to the mailbox. I've worn them in rain and snow, but I've always avoided puddles and slush. Dry snow and light rain were never a problem. I never really gave them a torture test, but they are water-resistant in any case. I doubt that they are water-proof.

Not at all water-resistant. If you step in a puddle you're in trouble. I wear them outdoors, to the store, and in the house barefoot. Get them extra big so you can step in and out of them easily. When I'm outdoors I am very careful about water. You can walk on a wet sidewalk, but you cannot step in a puddle. I would not wear them outdoors in heavy rain.

Okay for rain but not water puddles, they are water resistant but not water proof

There not water resistant. Get a shoe or boot, you'd be better off with sneakers.

I would say water resistant. I mean if your protecting from a monsoon rainstorm nothing is going to be waterproof.

Yes they are water proof, but to a certain extent. You dont want them getting soaked all the time.

Yes, I have them outside they have been exposed to a lot of rain. So far they are working like a charm

They have a rubber feel to them so I would imagine that they would be water proof, I wipe them down but I do not submerge them in water.

I've taken mine on a number of rides, in good weather and bad. The last time I took them on a rainy trip, they held up well for two days (it rained one day and one night.) The contents inside were dry, so they'll handle the rain. I'm not going to say they're waterproof, since if you drop them in a lake of water the contents will get wet. But they'll be fine in the rain (and mud!) Honestly, they're nice to have. They hold a good amount of gear. Between them, a camelback, and some ultralight backpacking gear, you can easily store what you need too and them some! They'll be going with me again on the C&O Canal this spring/summer. Ohhh, they won't hold a bed roll, they're not deep enough. But a small sleeping bag should fit nicely, mine fit, but then didn't provide for much additional storage (except for the outside pockets.)

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

Yes they are weather resistant but not weather proof (from the docs they supply).

you should be fine, these work both outdoors and indoors. They're water proof.

water resistant most defiantly, Light (less than 0.1inch/hr rain fall) to average rain fall (0.1inch/hr rain fall) they do fine for my quick 5mile ride to keep things dry. they have a resin/wax type lining but 100% water proof I would say no. I have not tested them in heavy rain though (like a 1/2inch-1inch/hr rain fall).hope I have helped.

No they are not water proof. They are water resistant. They can withstand light rain and that is about it.

No, they are not water resistant. they have a brushed flannel texture to them.

I don't know for sure but I would say no they are not water "proof" but I would say water resistant

They are designed for exterior use. Mine are completely unprotected. They are holding up well but we do not get a lot of rain in San Diego.

Yes, they are waterproof. It's one of their bigger selling points, and it states it on the box. We've had a few downpours and 2 snowfalls, and they still work great (they're out in the open, not under any kind of shelter)!

If they have not dried completey , yes they are not water proof. When water hits it runs. Hope this helps.

They are not waterproof but wick moisture away easily. I took them on a trail after the heavy rains we had here in Colorado and walked through a stream. Continued the trail for another 3 hrs and they were great! I threw them in the washer after I got home and they look brand new. I wouldn't machine wash them too much but they've been champs. :)
