Know before you buy
The compartment is bonded to create a reliable barrier, effectively isolating damp wetsuits or towels from the rest of your dry gear. While it is highly resistant to moisture, it is best to wring out your wetsuit thoroughly before packing to ensure the best results.
The roll-top design provides excellent protection against splashes, sand, and light rain, keeping your belongings secure. However, it is not designed to be fully submersible, so avoid dropping the bag into deep water.
The 20L size is ideal for a minimalist setup, comfortably fitting a wetsuit, a towel, a change of clothes, and small essentials. If you typically carry bulky items like multiple thick towels or large fins, you may find the space fills up quickly.
The D-ring provides a secure external anchor point for items you don't want inside the bag, such as keys, a leash, or a portable dry bag. It is a practical feature for keeping frequently used gear accessible without needing to open the main compartment.
Because the bag is constructed from durable Polyvinylchloride and Polyester, you can easily wipe it down with a damp cloth or rinse it with fresh water. Allow it to air dry completely in a shaded area to maintain the integrity of the materials.
