Great bag - not waterproof

Used this on the Appalachian Trail and was kind of upset to depend on the waterproofness claimed by this pack. Stuff didnt get soaked but they did get wet. the so called water tight zippers where first to fail. My cream-colored hoody got this darkish brown stain since it was against the side zipper in the main compartment. I guess this pack needs the rain cover thats made for the pack. Other then that I love the pack.
