Review on 🌊 WILD HEART Waterproof Duffel Bag: Ultimate Gear for Kayaking, Camping, Boating & More! by Farhad Cantu

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If you have broad shoulders, it is not suitable as a backpack.

I just drove 1068 miles round trip to stay on a mountainside for four days. I used this large bag to compensate for the loss of capacity when switching from hard to soft baskets. I didn't want to pack my 80L Terraframe on my bike so it was a good compromise. I stuffed it to the brim with everything I needed and it more than passed the test. I was particularly pleased with how it handled impacts against rocks and other objects (like Missouri cacti) without cracking or popping. or leak. The included compression straps work great, but the included tie-down straps tend to loosen over such a long period of time that I'm forced to check and recheck them at every stop, occasionally tightening them slightly. It's not exactly a hit with them, but I think it's a small improvement that could be made by replacing the buckles with buckles that have more aggressive teeth to sink deeper into the nylon to prevent it from slipping off. I really appreciated the various retroreflective dots on the bag, they definitely made me more visible when riding at night. All in all I'm glad I bought it, it definitely worked exactly how I wanted it to.
