is the back panel mesh or solid material? if i go to the gym and leave in my good clothes with a wet towel in the bag will it make my back wet?

But it holds up nice. Its on its second year with my son who is a sophomore in high school.

He whole bag is mesh, it has a little "privacy" pocket that is solid material but it's small...it fits my daughters Samsung phone. Other than that it's mesh

Yes, the whole backpack is mesh except for a small pocket. The wet towel will make your back and clothes wet.

Yes it will. the bag is entirley mesh. if you get a Nike Mesh bag, although having a higher price, you will have a solid backing.

yes it is! I was on a trip to Greenville SC. we got stuck in the rain and none of my stuff got to wet. I also wear it around everywhere and sweat with it on. it's been really awesome! I may upgrade to one of the larger ones but this particular bad is amazing!

Yes it stays completely dry,even after a few hours. Never had a problem with wetness on the outside of the bag.

I've been drying it with no issues...the backing is a plastic like material (to make it waterproof) but I haven't noticed any issues with it in the dryer.

No, it's just cloth like the rest of the bag. The changing pad that comes with it is somewhat water resistant though.

It is a mesh material. Water does run off but if it doesn't you just tilt the chair. It seems to dry off quickly.

I just tested it by pouring a little bit water on it from my kitchen sink. The water flowed across it. Nevertheless, I don't consider this bag waterproof. If water spills on it accidentally, and u wipe it off quick, your laptop will be safe... I think there's vulnerability around the zipper. But I gotta say this: "It is a solid bag". I love mine

I agree with the other reviewer: on the back, the center is deeper than the sides, which seem to allow air to circulate. My back has never gotten sweaty when wearing the pack.

It's not all mesh. The bottom of the bag has a hard plastic. So far I like the bag.

I would not consider this bag waterproof in any way..the divider has a "plastic" coating on the outside but is very on the top, the rest of the liner has a soft plushlike finish. I have never gotten this wet so have no idea of the outside. However I love the bag..while traveling in Europe last year I used the outside pocket for items that would normally be in my handbag (wallet in pants pocket)..it is very roomy... I have put my ipad between the liner and the back of the bag.. I carry one extra lens, mini tripod, extra battery...and whatever else gets shoved in...

To me it seems like an insulated fabric on the inside. I have spilled beans in it when traveling and simply hand washed the bag and laid it out to dry. I did have the towel in the bottom, but it sloshed out the lid of the pot. It washed up great. I love the bag and use it often. I plan on giving it to my sisters for Christmas.

yes the bottom is mesh. sand can get in bag..but it also allows sand to leave bag and all items to drain and dry while in the bag

I have never had any water get in that I am aware of. It simply has a top with a wide lip and inner wall on the cover that helps create a snug fit. I don't go into it often, but have never noticed that anything has been wet. One item I store in it is charcoal and the bag is always dry.

Well, it's made out of a foam-like material, so it would become damp. You might be able to pull it off though if you covered it with a plastic bag and taped it up so the water didn't get in.

The bag is made with two pieces of material sew together by wrapping the sides with a strip of binding fabric and sewing through all 4 layers. The nylon front and back of bag are definitely water resistant. The small strip of fabric is not water resistant. I poured water on the bag and let it remain for about a minute and none went through the nylon but the strip of binding was wet. I would say the bag is definitely water resistant but not entirely water proof. Should protect from rain but I wouldn't throw it in the pool. I have traveled with the bag several times with up to 4 dresses in it and it has worked well, no side seam splitting.

good question, my bag does not have a material tag but upon reexmanition it looks to me to me a mix of nylon outer shell stuck to a rubberized skin for water proffness it very sturdy and while not 50 percent sure about content I hope this gives you a better idea their good be several ways these were made depending which on you have

I would say water resistant because it is nylon. Not waterproof because the seams aren't sealed. I use these at the beach, my kids' all school meetings every Friday, as well as at the park. This has been the best investment for my back. It's also very portable and easily fits in the trunk of my car because it lays flat. Buy it! You won't regret it!
