Included is a separate travel wallet for documents and phones, an internal compartment to give you easy access to laptops up to 15″, and a number of quick-grab pockets.
product page states, “rugged weather resistant”.
does that include any water proofing?
in the summer I’m sure there might be situations where I would sit it down on damp surfaces.
would like to know how careful I need to be with this during adventures.
For such uses, I usually just buy a $5 can of Scotchgard Heavy Duty Water Shield and spray it on. Works great. I first used it on my old camping tent and was super impressed. Then an old pair of boots, and now most of my bags.
In my experience, ‘weather resistant’ in a bag usually means the fabric itself is some kind of water proof (though might wet through in heavy rain), but the seams and/or zips aren’t sealed. You’re probably fine in a rain shower or on damp surfaces but you’re not going to want to expose it to heavier conditions if you need full waterproof conditions.
that’s good to know.
definitely won’t be taking it in extreme rain conditions.
mostly to combat light splashes and such.
and also various damp surfaces.
but now that I think about it more, I’ll most likely wrap the models: in a towel, if storage capacity prohibits. (I’m extra cautious)
along with adamjay’s advice also, either way I should be fine now.
