Is this bag made with cotton? How fast does it dry if it gets wet?

What a great question. This bag may have some cotton in the inner lining, but it dries quickly. I can tell you when washing the bag It does not need a really long time to dry in my dryer. My son uses it for camping trips and it is really warm and comfortable. He does both scouts and medieval camping and absolutely loves this bag. It is one of the best bags I have purchased. It is well worth the money.

Filled with SuperLoft Elite 4-channel hollow fiber insulation (hi-tec polyester). If wrung out and left in sun expect 8 hrs to dry.

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.

No, the bag is not fully waterproof. It is also not at all dustproof, and not very protective of your equipment. It holds a lot and is comfortable and easy to organize, but is not really the best for equipment that is going to be in very wet or dusty conditions.

Outside square bag is perm sewn on. Can't say with certainty if the small bag is waterproof, I read a review that mentioned one of the bags is waterproof but I can't speak to whether either actually is.

Yes it stays completely dry,even after a few hours. Never had a problem with wetness on the outside of the bag.

it is a mesh/nylon bag so it dries quickly if you do get it wet. I don't think we ever took the bag into the water. we just left it on the beach.

Depending on how long it was out. Mine was left out for two days in the heavy rain and it was soaked, but before that I had had it out in medium rain and it fairer quite nicely, the zippers are amazing to say the least. They hold against water very nicely, the fabric is OK, in medium rain it beads up for about a half hour and after that it starts to soak. I bought some waterproofer from big 5 and it works like a charm with my bag. I highly recommend this bag!!

The tag inside says "spot clean with water and warm detergent. Air Dry". So far (I've had ours for 5 months now), our bag has withstood rain and heavy use and the exterior is real easy to keep clean since the surface is wipeable.

Not sure how quickly it dries - never wore it in the rain. But it is very lightweight.

This bag is not water proof, but I believe they do sell a water proof bag to go over it.

It is not water-proof. I sheds water fairly well though. In my experience, unless you fork out the money for a true dry-bag, backpacks are never waterproof after about 30 minutes in the rain.

It is cotton and with a nylon blend strap and a zipper. You can wash it on gentle cycle but I would let it air dry unless you want it to shrink a bit.

I have only used the bags in the wash and hang dry my delicates. The bag is made of nylon so I would recommend reading the manufacturer suggestions.

The fabric is fairly water repellent but probably not fully waterproof. It's a nylon fabric, coated on the inside with something shiny. I bought it for using in a tiny town in Mexico and left it there, so I can't look at it now. The top of the fabric bag has a drawstring and it has a flap over that so I'm sure that unless you're in a monsoon, it'd keep at least most of the water out.

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.

The outside is canvas so it is water repellent to a point. The inside liner is nylon on the outside and a soft clothe on the inside. Throwing it in a lake or being stuck outside more than 10 minutes in a down pour could allow water in. I never trust anything that says water proof so I always bring individual plastic bags for camera, lens etc. if there is any chance of moisture. It also helps to bring a small soft towel. Have not been in any rain or water rides with this.Still, for the price it is an awesome bag.

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.
