It started to drizzle during your kayak tour. Pull out your Outdoor Research Window Dry Sack, look through the urethane window, spot your rain jacket, and quickly retrieve your jacket without emptying all the contents of your sack in the process. This sack uses tough nylon, a waterproof coating, and taped seams to keep your gear dry. An external daisy chain and bottom handle make it easy to carry this bag on shore.

  • Not intended to be submerged
  • Outdoor Research suggests double-bagging electronic equipment as some moisture can enter the bag

Bottom Line: Avoid the five-minute-long dig.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

How do you convince your new girlfriend to join you on a 9-day river trip in the deserts of Utah? What can you offer her in response to her concern for cleanliness while camping on rafts and on the nearby riverbanks? How is she going to fit her entire bathroom into a sack that won't get her stuff wet?

Well, here's your answer: the OR Window Dry Sack. I was lucky, and it didn't take much convincing to get my girlfriend, Jamie, to come along on my annual Cataract Canyon river beer-fest. But with the Window Dry Sack, I knew she'd be able to find her sunscreen, headlamp, toothbrush, hair brush, or whatever else pretty chicks need on the river without any hassle. The window made a huge difference when our last beer koozie went missing, and lo and behold, there it was nesting down at the bottom of her dry sack. We called off the search party and resumed imbibing without any further delay.

Final point: if you have two girlfriends, buy two of these dry sacks to keep 'em both happy!

Another great bag

By:

I got the window bag for the wife while I just took the "durable" one. I reviewed the "durable" and it's essentially the same except a little more rigid because of the "window" plus there's no webbing. Great bag, I just knew I didn't need a window. I'll paste my review for the "durable" for those comparing.
"Great bag especially when the less popular colors go on sale! I primarily use a 25L for clothes. When you pack less into a bigger bag you roll the top closure over the side webbing- never been a problem for but it's really the only flaw I can think of. There's also a stitched on strap at the bottom not visible in the pictures above. Proven waterproof too."
