My experience is bound to be quite different from yours since I'm not the target customer for this dry bag. While it's intended primarily for boaters, I use it on my motorbike. I do a lot of adventure touring primarily throughout the Rockies. For me, it's the perfect place to carry odd shaped camping gear or boots, leather riding gear etc. I've found it super durable yet much more supple and easy to use than other dry bags used in the past. The "lateral" opening is very convenient and much easier to stuff and find gear than a traditional top opening bag. I've used both the top loading version and the lateral. My preference for this application is the lateral but here's a photo of the top loader in use atop a box of firewood. The beer and fireside munchies are in the aluminum cases!
