Having a nice dry pair of socks to change into mid-adventure can be the difference between enjoying it, and spiralling into despair. So, having the correct dry bag essentially. A dry bag is a water tight bag – it can be a rucksack, shoulder bag, or just a grab bag.

Different styles suit different adventures, so check out some of the ones on offer for your next wet adventure.

Outdoor Foundry 100% Waterproof Backpack

This 35L bag is great for long excursions because it is shaped, and has straps, like a conventional backpack. It can fit a hydration bladder too. The top is seal with a water tight zip, making access easy. There is even the option of a padded laptop sleeve for travelling. There is mesh on the side and elastic on the back so you can store more gear on the outside the pack. At least one reviewer commented on how durable the bag is, as others he tried fell apart quickly.

It’s got lots of straps and holds, to haul it up a cliff, or over the rail of your yacht.
