Fall Showers Are No Match for These Waterproof Bags
We, oddly, are celebrating the dying days of summer, but we're wise enough to know that with fall comes the danger of showers. With the possibility of the weather switching in minutes, waterproof bags come into their own. Whatever deserves to be carried also deserves to be kept safe and dry, so it’s time to consider weatherproofing your essentials.
Investing in a waterproof carry-around doesn’t always mean sacrificing the laid-back style of a summer tote bag for high-tech trekking backpacks, though. Our selection spans from the likes of Arc'teryx Veilance tote bags through to technical shoulder bags from RIMOWA and Snow Peak, so there's something for everyone.
