I know it's Nylon but how water proof is this bag? Could it go out in the field like on a hunting trip?

I agree with Mystri and Buckwheat. The zippers don't appear to be water proof, so water will get in if the bag is subjected to heavy rainfall or a deluge of some sort. Ordinary rain or drizzle should be no problem though.

It will probably do fine in light rain or drizzle but I don't believe that it will stay dry inside if the rain is heavy.

I wouldn't use it for heavy duty rain, or steady rain/wet. Could be okay in minor drizzles etc. but don't think it would keep things dry in serious wet conditions.

It's definitely lined so if a little accident did happen, it wouldn't immediately come through or damage the bag. The inside is similar to the fabric of a down coat and I would call it water resistant.

I would say it is water resistant, but certainly not waterproof. It is zippered on three sides, and certainly water could enter on those sides. In a mist or light rain you'd probably be okay with the non-zippered side pointing up, but I'd still carry it in waterproof bag.

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!

It is water resistant, in that as it is made of heavy nylon, it will shed water, but it will not keep items dry if submeged in water

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.

It is definitely water /rain resistant, but I would hesitate to call anything waterproof that does not advertise as such. It is a fantastic backpack!

Yes the outside is waterproof, I've been caught inthe rain numberous occasions,and nothing inside ever got wet. It's a great bag, I love mine, hope this helps.

it is lined nylon so it should be ok in a drizzle. My thinking is that it won't do in full on rain for long time. Very light weight, I use it to carry a jacket, hat etc for overseas travel.

No, not waterproof, but t you would be hard pressed to find a bag similar to this that is waterproof. The 600-Denier Poly/Canvas does a good job at holding out any water.

Its a nylon bag. Pretty sturdy, more than you would expect. I haven't used it much at all but I would guess it would last as long as you don't expect too much.

I would not consider this bag waterproof in any way..the divider has a "plastic" coating on the outside but is very on the top, the rest of the liner has a soft plushlike finish. I have never gotten this wet so have no idea of the outside. However I love the bag..while traveling in Europe last year I used the outside pocket for items that would normally be in my handbag (wallet in pants pocket)..it is very roomy... I have put my ipad between the liner and the back of the bag.. I carry one extra lens, mini tripod, extra battery...and whatever else gets shoved in...

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

The bag is water resistant for a rain shower. However, if you will traveling in water I would buy a better case for the tent as this one is just a drawstring closure. Hope this helps.

Unknown. Was given as a gift to someone else for 2012 survival bug out bag. Not sure if it has ever been out of doors yet. Unless stated as water-proof, I consider any pack as just water resistant.

definitely not waterproof - I did find a dry bag that fits perfectly but haven't had an opportunity to work with it yet. with my health and age it's kind of like a hurricane bug out bag for me. hope this has been some help. good luck.

Although I have not had mine out in the rain, I would suspect that this bag would provide a good amount of protection. It has a quality zipper an nylon which repels water. Overall I wouldnt be afraid of having my tablet or laptop out in the elements with this bag however if it was pouring down I think I would trow in a big ziplock for added protection.
