Anti-Theft Backpack: https://backpackies.co/pacsafego ✍️ The Pacsafe Go! is such an underrated travel pack and we had to include it in this video. It’s made with water-repellent fabric with good protection around the zippers for peace of mind in light rain. Don’t sleep on this one! 1:03 Feature 2 🎒Patagonia Black Hole 25L: https://backpackies.co/Black-Hole-25L ✍️ The Patagonia Black Hole is a laptop and travel backpack that did better than expected in our testing. It’s sloped top design, off-center zippers and water repellent fabric does a great job at letting rain roll off the backpack before it can sneak it. ▶️ Patagonia Black Hole 25L vs 32L: • Patagonia Black Hole 25L vs 32L (an easy c... 1:32 Feature 3 🎒 Modern Dayfarer V2 Backpack: https://backpackies.co/modern-dayfarer ✍️ The Dayfarer V2 backpack is a powerhouse in bad weather and one of the best water resistant laptop backpacks we have ever tested. Seriously. It passed all of our rain testing with flying colors thanks to the lid and water resistant YKK Aquaguard zippers that protect the exterior. You won’t be able to submerge this backpack in water but in the rain it’s amazing. 2:06 Feature 4 🎒 Rains Rolltop Rucksack: https://backpackies.co/rains-rolltop ✍️ The Rains Rolltop Rucksack is made with Rain’s proprietary waterproof fabric that repels rain right off the bag as soon as it makes contact. You can dry it with a towel in seconds. Out of all of Rains backpack models this one is easily our favorite as a daily waterproof backpack for school and work. 🎒Expedition Units Project 8020 Waterproof Backpack: https://expedition-units.com/backpackies FOR $15 OFF PURCHASE USE CODE: BACKPACKIES ✍️ The Expedition Units Project 8020 is the only outdoor dry bag featured in the video. Unlike regular backpacks this one can float when partially submerged thanks to its fully cinchable rolltop, waterproof seams and materials. If you're looking for a waterproof backpack for outdoor adventures on the water, this is the one. 2:58 Feature 5 🎒Ridge Commuter Backpack: https://backpackies.co/ridge-commuter ✍️ The Ridge Commuter Backpack impressed us with its premium materials and sleek design, featuring a water-repellent ballistic nylon exterior and water-resistant YKK Aquaguard zippers for great protection in the rain. 3:53 Feature 6 🎒Got Bag Rolltop Backpack: https://backpackies.co/gotbag-rolltop ✍️ The Got Bag Rolltop featured in this video is actually the smaller Rolltop Lite in Soft Shell color, sorry. Both versions pack a punch with waterproof fabric, a rolltop closure, welded seams and passed with flying colors with every rain test. Got Bag offers these waterproof laptop backpacks in a ton of colors so you are sure to find one you love. 4:24 Feature 7 🎒 Osprey Nebula 32 Backpack: https://backpackies.co/osprey-nebula ✍️ One of Osprey's most popular EDC and travel backpacks, the Nebula 32 hooks you up with protective zipper guards and a DWR water repellent finish on the fabric. Also check out the Quasar 28 for a smaller yet similar laptop backpack option. ▶️ Osprey Nebula vs Quasar: • Osprey Nebula vs Quasar Explained in 5 Min... 🎒Chrome Urban Ex 30L Backpack: https://backpackies.co/Chrome-Urban-Ex ✍️ The Chrome Urban Ex Backpack has stood the test of time, with our 4-year-old pack shown in the video still going strong despite it being treated less than kindly. Featuring welded seams, heavy-duty waterproof fabric, and a rugged aesthetic, it truly showcases the best of what Chrome has to offer. 5:33 How to Choose The Best Waterproof Backpack 🎒Alpaka Elements Backpack Pro: https://backpackies.co/alpaka-element... ✍️ The Alpaka Elements Backpack Pro exceeded our expectations in the waterproof test and we are confident this pack can stay dry on those nasty rainy commute or travel days. The brand’s proprietary Axoflux waterproof fabric was the highlight. =========== ULTIMATE GUIDE TO WATERPROOF BACKPACKS - WHICH LEVEL DO YOU NEED? https://backpackies.com/blog/waterpro... =========== 🔔 Subscribe for more: / @backpackies For more backpack reviews and buying guides visit us at https://backpackies.com/ IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES =========== Affiliate Disclosure Backpackies is a small project that is viewer-supported.
