Osprey Dry Bags
Frequently asked questions
How do I close a roll-top dry bag properly?
Press out the excess air, roll the top down at least three times to form a firm seal, then clip the buckle across. A tight, multi-turn roll is what keeps water out, so do not settle for a single fold.
Are Osprey dry bags fully submersible?
Roll-top drysacks are highly water resistant and will keep contents dry through rain, spray and short, accidental dunks, but they are not pressure-rated diving containers. For paddling and beach use they are ideal, provided the top is rolled and sealed correctly.
What size dry bag should I choose?
Pick by what you need to protect. A small 3 to 6 litre sack suits a phone, wallet and keys, 12 litres takes spare clothing and food, and larger sacks line a rucksack or hold bulkier sleeping kit. Many people carry a few sizes for different jobs.
Can I use dry bags to organise a backpack?
Yes, that is one of their best uses. Colour or size coding contents into separate dry bags keeps a pack tidy and means the essentials stay dry even if the pack itself gets soaked, which is why many hikers line a rucksack with them.
