One of two here that say how the seams are treated

Tatonka Dry Sack 30 litres in recycled polyester, taped seams

  • Says how the seams are treated, which five of the seven bags here do not
  • States the volume unambiguously in litres, twice, rather than leaving it in a model name
  • No denier and no coating, so the fabric is named but not specified

Best for: Sorting a large load inside a rucksack or a car, where taped seams do more than a rating would.

What this listing puts on record

A stuff sack of 30 litres in recycled polyester, with taped seams and a roll closure with a clip buckle, described as absolutely waterproof and as protecting its contents from dirt, dust, sand and moisture. The maker offers it for sorting travel luggage and outdoor kit, for trekking, camping, travel and kayaking.

The seam line is the one to read

Five of the seven listings on this shelf never mention their seams. This one does, in three words: taped seams. On a sewn waterproof bag that is not a detail, it is the join between a fabric claim and a bag claim — the cloth can hold whatever it holds and the stitching will still let water through unless something is done about it.

Only one other listing here publishes a seam treatment, and it uses a different word for what may or may not be the same process. Two out of seven is the measure of this family.

The volume is stated properly, which sounds trivial

30 litres, in the title, twice. One bag on this shelf carries its size only in its model name with no unit attached anywhere, and another offers a size list that its own bullets contradict. Against that, saying thirty litres plainly and repeating it is worth noting.

Where the sheet stops

No denier, no coating, no rating, no weight. Recycled polyester names the fibre and stops before the two things that decide how a bag behaves: how heavy the weave is and what has been put on it. Absolutely waterproof then does the work that a figure should do, and there is nothing on the page to hold it to.

Before ordering

Thirty litres is a large sack, and a large sack asks the most of a roll-top because there is more fold to get wrong. Roll it well past what feels sufficient before clipping, since this listing gives no count of its own.

More dry bags

  • Set of eight VFANDV coloured dry bags in ascending sizes

    VFANDV set of eight PU-coated polyester dry bags, 1.5 to 13 litres

    A set of eight small bags, and the only one on this shelf to close with a hook-and-loop strip instead of a buckle — with a size list that the title and the bullets state differently.

    Stated volume
    Eight bags. The title lists 1.5, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 5, 8, 10 and 13 litres; the bullets list 1.5, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 5, 8, 13 and 13 litres. The two lists are not the same and the maker does not reconcile them
    Fabric
    Polyester fibre — stated
    Denier
    Not published on the listing
    Coating
    Polyurethane — stated, over the polyester
    Seam construction
    Not published on the listing — the maker says the smooth surface stops seams letting water through, which describes the fabric rather than how the seams are joined
    Closure type
    Rolled, then fastened with a hook-and-loop strip — stated; the maker describes rolling the top and pressing the strip closed, and gives no number of turns
    Stated water rating
    Not published on the listing — waterproof and tear-resistant are used as words, with no standard and no figure
    Weight
    Not published on the listing — described as very light and compact, foldable to a small size, with no figure

    • Eight bags in one purchase, which is the cheapest way on this shelf to sort a pack by size
    • Names the coating as polyurethane rather than leaving the fabric described as coated
    • The size list in the title and the size list in the bullets do not match

    Best for: Sorting a pack into eight labelled parcels rather than protecting one thing properly.

  • Unigear PVC dry bag with shoulder strap and reinforced D-rings

    Unigear 500D PVC dry bag, six sizes from 2 to 40 litres

    One of only two bags here to publish a denier, and one that describes its buckle, its D-rings and its phone pocket without ever saying how the top itself is closed.

    Stated volume
    Six sizes offered — 2, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 litres, stated, with the maker suggesting 2 to 10 litres for boating and fishing, 20 to 30 for cycling, camping and the beach, and 40 for longer trips
    Fabric
    PVC — stated as scratch-resistant, tear-resistant and waterproof
    Denier
    500D — stated
    Coating
    Not published on the listing — PVC is named as the material itself rather than as a coating over a woven base, and no chemistry is named on top of it
    Seam construction
    Not published on the listing
    Closure type
    Not published on the listing — the maker describes an optimised buckle shape and material and says it outlasts ordinary buckles, and never says how the top is folded before the buckle clips
    Stated water rating
    Not published on the listing — waterproof is used as a word, with no standard, no ingress rating and no water column figure behind it

    • Publishes a denier, which only one other bag on this shelf does
    • Reinforced D-rings at both the top and the base, with the lower one described as taking the greater load
    • The closure is never named, so the roll count that makes a seal cannot be checked

    Best for: A boat, a beach or a bike pannier where a stated fabric weight matters more than a stated seal.

  • crazy4sailing C4S black ripstop dry bag with its roll-top closed

    crazy4sailing C4S coated ripstop dry bag, 5 litres, roll-top

    A light roll-top in coated ripstop that states a floating claim conditional on being closed properly, and leaves the coating, the denier and the seams unnamed.

    Stated volume
    5 litres for this listing — stated in the title, with the maker offering the range from 1.5 to 30 litres
    Fabric
    Ripstop — stated as tear-resistant and coated, and described as durable at low weight
    Denier
    Not published on the listing

    Not published on the listing — the fabric is described as coated ripstop and the coating itself is never named
    Seam construction
    Not published on the listing
    Closure type
    Roll-top — stated, described as sealing reliably, easy to handle, and as making the bag float when correctly closed; no number of turns is given
    Stated water rating
    Not published on the listing — the maker claims the bag is 100 per cent waterproof, with no standard, no ingress rating and no water column figure
    Weight
    Not published on the listing — described as ultralight and foldable, with no figure

    EAN
    4031396064099
    • Names the closure as a roll-top rather than describing only the buckle that holds it
    • Ties the floating claim to the condition it depends on — correctly closed — instead of stating it flat
    • Coated ripstop names half a fabric; the coating is what does the waterproofing and it is never said

    Best for: A day on the water where the bag has to shut fast and stay on the surface if it goes over.

    EAN
    6093200955601
    • Publishes a film thickness and a weight in the same sentence, which only one other listing in this family does
    • Names the film precisely as aluminised PE rather than leaving it as a generic rescue foil
    • The thickness is given in millimetres while the rest of this shelf works in microns, so the two figures cannot be read side by side without converting them yourself

    Best for: Buying a bivvy bag on a published film thickness rather than on a picture of one.

    • The only one of the seven blankets here with a value on every column this hub compares
    • Publishes the film thickness in microns, which only one other listing in this family attempts in any unit

  • Care Plus Bell Durallin mosquito net hung as a bell over two sleeping places

    Care Plus Bell Durallin, Ø 330 cm, treated, two people

    Shape
    Bell — stated, for two people
    Dimensions
    Ø 330 cm — stated; no drop height and no bed length are published
    Mesh count per square inch
    156 mesh per square inch — stated, in a 75 denier yarn and what the maker calls an efficient diamond-shaped structure
    Hanging point count

    EAN
    8714024337043
    • Publishes a mesh count, a yarn denier and a mesh structure together, which nothing else in this hub does
    • A bell for two people at a stated 330 cm diameter, given as a figure rather than as a size name
    • No hanging arrangement published at all, on the shape that most depends on what is above it

    Best for: Two sleeping places under one bell, where there is a solid single point overhead and the mesh specification is what you are buying.
