i was wondering if these pouches are vacuum packed as to use up less space in my back pack?

I do not think they are. I haven't looked at them in awhile as they are in my "bugout bag" and I haven't had to bugout. They are as you would see in a store.

No, you need to buy any and alo molle pouches. However I fit two 1.5 liter bottles and 2 pack's of jerky in the smallest front pouch without squashing anything.

Yes, I believe they are. The bags are very strong and they seal, however they are very, very large. Unless you are packing away thanksgiving leftovers, you might find them too big. I used them for other reasons, ( wet clothes in Antarctica ) and they were very durable.

Yes they are. I am rough on luggage of any sort. Are you seeing a video that shows this as a "feature" of the bag? Link me if ya can

Yes! We were quite pleased with these pouches. We used them in making Mommy Emergency bags- and filed them with things a mom might need while on the run- bandaids, lotion, crayons, antisceptic wipes,crayons, etc. They are the size of a school pencil bag. They are holding up well!

I can't answer with any authority, but something is better than nothing. You can pack them really well, maybe in a plastic ziplock and bury it in the deepest part of your back pack. If these are working for you, then definitely YES, take them and take care of them. Hope this helps with the decision making. Enjoy your backpacking trip!~nanette

They do not, unfortunately. Or I just got some newer Cheeky plates that are about a centimeter too big for the pouches. But other than that, the organizer works really really well. =]

When unpacking the Gura Gear, I usually place the back side (the side next to my back) on the ground. If I need something at the top of the big zippered pouch, I just place it on the small bottom side. I suppose this all depends on if you're on wet or sloping ground. If so, you may have to have another person hold the pack while you do the digging. I hope this was helpful!

Not very well. I now use mine to store wood shop stuff. They are a heavy duty zip lock bag. But you never vacuum seal any thing in them for a long amount of time. I will not buy them again

These bags are open on one end. You do not have to vacuum and seal the bags; however, we recommend vacuum sealing for freshness.

Yes it's bag less. I gave this little vacuum a5 star I believe. Since operation of the vacuum I've had to take it to Oreck for help in getting the canister to seal after I cleaned the filter. Now the retractable cord has quit functioning.Cleaning out ad cleaning the filter is a messy job. You have to do it often. I purchased the little hero as its light weight and I have bone and joint issues.

Yes but I had to re-vacuum the large bags after a few months. Also don't over stuff them, they rip easily!

The ziploc bags are not air tight. They have a zipper around the top so should stay shut but also have a narrow mesh around the top and are not vacuum sealed.

Honestly, I have no idea. I still protected the pouch just in case...nothing ever happened to them. I don't think they are? I am sorry for not knowing the answer.

I think they would be okay. Though one possible issue might be how to repackage them for the trip. I don't think the plastic pouch they come would be able to stand up to the rigors of a pack crammed with all of your camping gear.

They're really not. All of them have the zip lock type seal, so you just poor the food in. It also makes it easy to clean too. Also, just get the big ones. I don't think the little ones are worth buying bc they're pretty tiny. Best pouch ever!!!!!

I have only used the food saver brand, so I can't answer to using any vacuum bag,
