Verdict: A well-made and very affordable duffel bag that joined us on ocean rowing expeditons and long motorbike trips without complaint!

The Itiwit 30L Waterproof Duffel Bag in orange is a versatile and durable bag designed for water sports enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers, such as ocean rowing (the reason we bought it).

 

This bag features a 30-litre capacity, making it ideal for carrying essential gear while keeping it protected from water and harsh weather. Its robust waterproof construction ensures that your belongings stay dry, even in wet conditions.

 

The bag is equipped with a roll-top closure system, a common feature in dry bags, which helps create a watertight seal. It also has reinforced handles and adjustable straps, offering convenience for both carrying and transporting. The bright orange colour enhances visibility, which is particularly useful for outdoor activities like kayaking, boating, or camping. Additionally, its lightweight and compact design make it easy to handle without adding unnecessary bulk.

 

The Itiwit 30L Waterproof Duffel Bag is a great choice for anyone looking for reliability and functionality in challenging environments.
