I had really high hopes for this backpack. When some of the outer straps came off, I figured that was part of the defect, and the reason for the discount. It was annoying when the top strap broke, but for the price - ok.
One of the two shoulder straps just came off. This backpack lasted 3 weeks. Admittedly, 3 weeks of heavy use, but for $125 … totally unacceptable. There’s no warranty so I guess I’ve just spent over $125 on a bag that didn’t even last through my entire trip. It broke today and I fly tomorrow, so at least I don’t actually need to buy a new backpack.
I assumed from the good reviews that this bag, though defective, was usable. I guess I’ve been scammed.
UPDATE: Jeff has agreed to issue a refund, and I really appreciated how quickly he resolved this issue.
Like everything about the bag absent the small top zippered pocket. It’s a small entry into the larger compartment of the bag. That really needs to be its own pocket as I don’t see much use in accessing the larger compartment through such a small zippered opening.
Hello Joel, appreciate the feedback. Our intent behind that small upper zipper was to be able to grab little things out of the top - like a hat or gloves - without having to open the primary compartment. The bag does have 4 other external pockets on the main compartment plus the two on the waist so we opted not to divide it. Thanks again! Jeff
I purchased this backpack to carry a load of photo equipment on a recent trip to Alaska to photograph the brown bears. We had rain and sleet as well as the usual dirty and wet conditions you find in the field. This backpack was a champ. It kept all of the water and dirt away from the cameras. It held two complete body and lens sets as well as other photo equipment and extra clothes and gloves. It also was easy on the back when carrying the load. It took rough treatment without any issues. I can highly recommend this backpack for rough use in bad weather.

I really love the bag! I ordered because of its water proof, and it does not disappoint. The center zipper makes it easy to find things. Other backpack bags with top opening are like digging in a black hole to find what I want. Having the outer pockets also water proof keeps me organized. I work on the ocean in all weather conditions salt spray , rain and sun the bag works great . The pack is also comfortable to wear.
I’m a waterfowl hunter. I was looking for something to carry my spare coat, gloves, dry clothes etc. The backpack certainly seems to fit the bill. I am very pleased with the quality of construction and amazed by how much gear I could cram in there! Unfortunately, I could only use it for the last two trips of the season, but it certainly got wet and kicked around in the boat a bit with no ill effect. Thanks
Love this bag, turned it into my camera bag! Insane good service and great product!
I original purchased this backpack last fall and a strap broke due to the weight I had in the backpack (I overloaded it). I was unaware that the backpack I bought on clearance had this known issues. I reached out via email on a Saturday and the owner reached out via phone in less than an hour. He went above and beyond to replace the backpack which they did not have too. The product is a good and durable now. I will buy more products in the future from RGD because of the quality and customer service. It is something that is hard to find these day! I would give 6 stars if I could.
I am really happy about the vertical bag design, it is a winner. I plan on additional purchases. Jeff and team provide great personal service too!
Perfect size travel pack with lots of features. I live in Southeast Alaska (A huge-ass rainforest) This pack is 100% waterproof / air tight and holds the perfect amount of gear for an all day hunt or a bike commute to work.
Perfect

Great pack. I took it canyoning and it handled abrasions well and was water tight
I was going on vacation and this bag expedited to get in in time. They answered the phone when I called and personally handled the order. Service was fantastic along with the product! Highly recommend the product and the service of the Team!
One shoulder strap has almost broke off. The top strap is broken already. It lasted 4 months. I would love a refund.
I have not been home yet to see it . I will be hm late next week
Thx
I didn't read the obvious warranty description that this bag had a handle issue. When the carry handle ripped off exactly as the company warned, I asked for a replacement. Jeff explained the issue, and even though it was completely my fault, he still issued a promo code for new bag. That's pretty cool.
Says 35L backpack buts tag on product says 40L so keep that in mind. I use it store my clothes when im visting my family
I brought this for winter fishing on the Salmon River in NY heat bag holds everything I need for days fishing. Very happy with this purchase
Very well-made! Great for outdoor and wet environments
Unique and incredibly well designed bag. Shipping assistance was very kind and efficient! Thank you for everything
I ordered this backpack for my husband & he is so happy with it! He will make good use of it.
Received it about 2 weeks ago and it was exactly what I was looking for. Great customer service on a shipping issue. Will buy other products!

It’s okay to build a lessor product and inexpensive just don’t try to sell it as a Cadillac
Hello, thank you for the review. Wondering where we misguided you? This is a dry bag backpack. Is there something we can address that would better meet your expectations in the description? We try to be pretty transparent in everything we sell. Including this bag. Thanks, Jeff
Took a brand new SA 35L out on the Deschutes for work in river ecology with a research group. Benign trails, good weather, about as easy as it gets on the trail. 2 straps broke while trying to tighten them. The two vertical pouches outside the main storage compartment snare so small and tight, that beyond storing a couple car keys or a phone the are useless. In short the pack looks good, but performed poorly. Definitely don’t buy this if you do any kind is serious outdoor trips. Prob good to keep clothes dry while waiting for the bus in town….

No problems back is great product
Excellent quality straps doesn’t hurt my shoulders or back
I have not been out duck hunting with it yet. It does feel like it is a very good quality I will know for sure after a couple hunts. Being a public duck hunter and the running and gunning we do our equipment gets beat down pretty quick some stuff I've bought only last one hunt. I think this product may stand up. We will see 👍🏻
