This isn't your father's (1970s) Bill's Bag. Now improved with the most comfortable shoulder straps in the industry and a clear vinal strip for a better seal. 21-oz. PVC/polyester body and 34-oz. PVC/polyester round bottom. The 2.2 is small enough to fit in overhead compartments of most airlines, while the 3.8 offers plenty of storage for long excursions.
Sturdier Than Expected
Sometimes you see bags on the internet that look great, but when you receive them they're just not the quality you thought they would be. I was surprised to see that the straps were attached well and the material with which the bag is made better than I expected. I am going to get another smaller one for a friend as a Christmas gift.
fits the need
I bought the bag to use in Costa Rica for carrying camera equipment and food across the rivers when we surf. It is the correct size to accomodate even more stuff that you need to keep dry and free of blowing sand as well when on the beach. Straps are also more than adequate and not some mickey mouse after thought that will rip off.
Great Bag
I loved this bag. I used it to carry caving and camping gear to Chiquibul Cave in Guatemala. The hike to the cave, as well as exploring the cave, involved long distances, steep terrain and river crossings. Sometimes the bag was on my back sometimes it was strapped to a mule hauling gear over rugged trails but it came through with flying colors. I plan on using this bag for years to come.
