Greetings from Czechia. I bought the bag from my US friend. I was hesitant at first due to its unique construction but after a few trips I have to admit it's a good bag. It kept my clothes fully dry while being fully submerged under the water attached to the canoe in a fast river stream. I can keep it outside of the ten no matter what's going on outside. Even though it doesn't looks like it is very comfortable to wear on back. However I have two issues with it. The bottle holder started to tear off and I'm afraid that it's gonna leak and there will be no chance to repair it. The same with quite fragile and small buckle for closing the bag. I suggest to use bigger one not so prone to break. Also I would suggest to prolong the area meant to be rolled for a few centimeters. If you pack it with clothes up to area where the back straps are attached you can't roll it properly to be watertight but if you put not enough clothes you can't roll it properly too due to back straps. To be watertight it must be rolled at least thee times which is quite challenging here. Overall, I like it a lot and I would like to try more products of yours but no chance to buy it in the EU.

We were sold this backpack at a farmers market in Vail Colorado. It’s a beautiful backpack. It looks great. First time we took it out. We used it to go on our paddle boards in the river flipped over and within seconds of being able to flip the boards back over get everything on all of our gear inside the bag was wet Following up from that took the bag emptied it filled it with air, rolled it up, closed it how you would normally seal it to make it waterproof kneeled on it and all I heard was a hissing sound and eventually within about less than 30 seconds my knee was hitting the ground. It is far from waterproof again a very cool bag definitely not waterproof
