100% waterproof backpacks?

[jamiey]

Anyone know where to get a good 100% waterproof back pack, only need a small one for work gear etc. Can't find any been trawling TM, camping gear websites etc - had enough now so need some KB advice!!

Katmandu sells backpack covers .. they work well!

Get a decent back pack, put your stuff in a rubbish bag, twist the opening of the rubbish bag close, tuck the neck so it's ends at the bottom of the bag, put rubbish bag in back pack.

Water doesn't travel against gravity by itself, you'll need to fall into a lake for the contents to get wet.

Ridgeline do dry bag packs.

edit. Not the exact model that kanny got at the fielddays a few years ago.
Hers is like a canoe bag with pack straps and waist harness. Best "stuffer" bag I've ever used.

If you want long term go with the drybags either katmandu or hunting and fishing store's will see you right

Speaking of waterproof bags, Louis Vuitton luggage are designed to float on water (in the event of ship sinking). 100% waterproof.

i use a stoney creek from rusty dog outdoors, its not 100% waterproof, but ive sprayed it with some water resistant shit, and when it really pisses down, i strap my pack to my bike jacket, and can still fit my raincoat over the top, keeping it completely dry anyway.

I have one of these for hunting. With the blaze cover it is 100% waterproof. Camera, phone etc all dry while I was dripping wet.
