SealLine Zip Dry Duffel Bag for Sale, Reviews, Deals and Guides

I just returned both the 40 & 70 liter Sealine Zip Duffle Bag back to Backwoods. Both bags arrived with damage. The bag is folded over and put into a cardboard sleeve by the manufacture for sale. At the fold line on both bags the PVC was worn thru the material to the white substrate. If this bag gets this type of damage just from packaging I can just imagine what it will look like after being dragged down the "Grand". I'm going to contact SeaLine and say "what's up?." Now the good news, getting these bags from Backcountry.com was fast and the return was painless. Keep up the good work.

Mississippi River Canoe Solo - Departing early August. These are great bags. I have used them on several gear checkout trips and they are perfect, water tight, low profile, etc. So tight they even work as a great pillow in the tent. I have spent the last two years testing gear and have found so much BS on the Internet by way of reviews it's become exhausting, but these are the real deal. I'm also taking the Pro Pack for the volume and portage. Granted the closure isn't as watertight, but most of the time your suspposed to be IN the canoe, and the closure of the Pro Pack is very good and remains well above the bottom of the canoe with normal water accumulation. I've tried several top brands which are good, but for me, these are my choice.

I love this bag. It's completely air-tight. When you close the zip it's like a ballon - you squeeze it but no air comes out which means no water can get in. The reason it's a 4* rather than 5* review is a minor gripe. There are no end handles and the handles it has don't feel particularly comfortable. However, they minimise handles to minimise the number of welds and possible leaks so it's understandable. Overall, a great bit of kit if you want to keep your stuff 100% dry.
