The 'Guide' bag is a waterproof backpack that isn't merely designed to keep its contents dry in the face of incessant rain, water or splashing, but promises to add to this already impressive skill-set by virtue of a reconfigurable design that allows for the bag to be worn and used in a variety of contexts.
This backpack uses fully waterproof zippers and fabrics, and also uses an air-release mechanism that helps to create a vacuum that doesn't merely help to keep water out but also helps to make the backpack more diminutive and compact.
This particular waterproof backpack comes with a pair of straps that can be used and set up in different configurations, so that it can be used as a conventional backpack, worn on the shoulder like a messenger bag or be interpreted for other uses.
The 'Guide' is available in a standard version for a pledge of $80 on Kickstarter, or the upgraded 'True North' version - which boasts a three-sided opening and high-grade nylon - for $90.
