Yes . But the bag is really small . Did not fit my Lenovo Y510p (15'6) .Does not have much space , i suggest you buy this ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IRWOON2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)Its much better and spacious .[ I returned the swiss gear and bought the high sierra ]

You're welcome. Try to look for a bag that is advertised to be waterproof, else wise you may not be able to make claims in case the product doesn't satisfy you for that reason. Best of lucks!

No, I think it isn't, besides it isn't advertised as waterproof. However, the material will keep your stuff dry for a while if under the rain.

I would not say that it is 100% water proof per say. This is because non-water proof cloth materials are also used to made the comfortable padding behind the bag and the zippers. Hope this helps :)

No, It is water resistant as it has a coating on the top and seems to hold up to our snow but I would not call it water proof. Very solid.

If I walk in the rain with the bag for a while, it is not a problem at all. But if you soak it in water, I am sure it will leak somewhere. I am very happy with the bag, good quality.

It is weather/waterproof. It is a very nice travel bag, but on the big and heavy side. I highly recommend it, but buyer beware, the airline tried to charge me excess weight because all together with the car seat it weighs more tha 50 lbs.

I've used this bag every day for a few months now and it has been pretty water resistant. I can walk in the rain and not worry about the stuff inside getting wet.

Im not sure if it's qualified as a water proof, but seems like it. I would feel safe to walk with this bag under rain. Definitely wouldn't swim with it :-)

No, because of the velcro opening, rain can get into the bag. It would not be good under heavy rain, light rain would be ok.

I would not say it is rainproof. Rain resistant is more like it: I have been out with this bag in sudden showers, and nothing inside has gotten wet. However, I don't think it would fare as well in a very rainy environment or during a more lengthy downpour. Great bag, though!

Its not built to be water proof. It is slightly resistant to water, especially if you scotch guard the bag before first use. The fabric seems to be quite resilient to wear and tear. I have used mine for almost a year now and no wear marks or holes are evident. Hope this helps.

It is water tight for rain for sure. I havn't had it through the winter yet.

yes, its water resistant, i had it soaked in the rain and inside was pretty dry. I don't know about submerging the bag though...

It's made of rip stop nylon so I'd say it's water resistant but not waterproof. I usually throw a ziplock bag or two in all of my bags just in case I get caught in rain.

I would call it water resistant, not waterproof. Its made to withstand rain, snow etc.

I have not had the bag in heavy rain or snow yet. It is not made out of plastic or material impervious to moisture but it's very well made and I'm guessing the heavy nylon it's made with would keep things dry inside.

No this bag is not waterproof. The seams have a small strip of durable fabric in the stitching for strength and there is a fabric zipper so it isn't waterproof. Because it is mostly vinyl, you could call it "splash resistant" but that's as far as I'd go.

We have not used ours in the rain, but in researching it previously it does not sound like it is 100% waterproof. I think other users waterproofed their things inside the bag. We used the pad that was on the recommended list in between the car roof and the bag, did not damage the car/paint.

It is not waterproof. I do love the bag though, simple and very large. Tons of space in it. If you're willing to use a water repellant spray or something similar I would highly recommend the bag itself. Thanks.
