This fully waterproof, roll top, wet/dry bag rucksack has been designed for wild swimmers - whether you are hiking, cycling or just sauntering to the water. It will keep your kit dry, has tons of storage space, is fully adjustable for comfortable wearing and has an array of features to facilitate carrying your gear to your favourite swim spots.
It is made from tough 500D tarpaulin and has heat welded seams to give your belongings total protection from the elements. The roll top enclosure means that even the heaviest of downpours can't dampen your fun and the pack can even withstand a brief total submersion. This is rugged piece of kit that will rise to the challenge of all swim terrains and can be easily wiped down after a muddy outing.
The main compartment is roomy with a 45L storage capacity and features a wide opening to make it easy to access your gear. There is plenty of space for a changing robe, a poncho towel, neoprene accessories, hot water bottle, warm layers and, importantly, cake. It also features a separate waterproof bag which can zip out. This can be used to store any wet items after your swim and can then be easily removed to clean and dry out, once back home.
The bag is watertight with 3 rolls of the fabric at the top and can then be fastened down at the side or clipped together at the top. There is an additional grab handle on top to make is easy lifting this on to your back.
Don't always need as much storage space? Versatile, with its roll top fastening you can simply roll it down further and use the over strap to create a smaller pack.
There is also a small and handy, showerproof pocket inside attached to the zip out bag. This enables easy access to important items like your keys and phone to save you having to rummage through the contents of your rucksack to locate them. We know wild swimmers love a pocket or two.
Externally there are 2 stretchy, mesh side pockets to store that all important thermos flask
An external splash proof zip pocket on the front keeps small, important items to hand
There is a set of loops for walking poles if you are hiking in the hills to find that perfect dipping spot, or perhaps for an ice axe when that winter season comes round and you are in training for your ice mile (or just posing for Instagram)
Adjustable, padded shoulder straps, a chest strap and a waist belt make carrying this pack very comfortable. You can keep the weight close to your body and look after your back.
Cyclists will benefit from the loop for a bike light/adventure light and a reflective strip to help increase visibility and stay safe.
Available in 6 colours: electric blue, hot pink, flame orange, olive green, aquamarine and pebble grey.
