There are pros and cons to everything. What are the cons to owning a dry sack over a standard compression sack? The price is only a few dollars difference and the weight difference appears minimal.

The only cons I cink of are 1. price, and 2. The eVent membrane may not last as long as a stanard sack. But the pros - Much more waterproof, more breathable material, and much more compressible because although water can't get in the air goes right through the bottom and allows excellent compression without air pockets etc. So if your gear doesn't have to stay dry you could save a few dollars, but I would rather have the more versatile bag with the piece of mind that comes with knowing my gr will stay dry when it counts.
