FAQs
Is the Global Dry Bag 60L completely waterproof?
The bag is highly water-resistant and designed to keep gear dry in wet conditions, but it is not intended for deep water submersion or diving.
How do I clean the bag?
Rinse the exterior with fresh water. For dirt or mud, use a mild detergent and a soft cloth, then allow it to air dry.
Can I carry this on an airplane?
Yes, as long as it meets the size requirements for your specific airline's carry-on or checked baggage policy.
What is the best way to pack the bag?
Place heavier items at the bottom and lighter items on top to improve weight distribution and carrying comfort.
Does it float?
If there is air trapped inside when you seal the roll-top, the bag will generally float, though it is not designed to be used as a personal flotation device.
Troubleshooting
Water getting inside the bag
Ensure the roll-top has been folded at least three times before buckling; an insufficient number of folds will not create a complete seal.
Straps feel uncomfortable under heavy loads
Ensure the weight inside the bag is distributed evenly and adjust the backpack straps to fit snugly against your shoulders.
Material feels stiff or sticky after storage
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap, rinse thoroughly, and let it dry completely in the shade.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best seal, place your items inside, ensuring you leave enough space at the top to roll the opening at least three times. Once rolled, clip the side buckles together to maintain tension. For long-term maintenance, rinse the bag with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or sand to prevent grit from damaging the material over time. Allow the bag to air dry completely in a shaded area before storing it, as sealing a wet bag can lead to mildew. Do not use sharp objects near the exterior fabric to prevent punctures, and store the bag in a cool, dry place when not in use.
