Ultralight Dyneema Zip Top Food Storage Bags, New!
Ultralight Dyneema Zip Top Food Storage Bags, New!
A Dyneema zip top food storage bag is an easy way to get quick access to your food without having to constantly dig through a roll top storage sack. You can use the sack for a bear bag by connecting a carabiner and throw line to the handle. Made from Dyneema Composite Fabric (DCF) formerly known as Cuben Fiber. Each bag is made with 2 YKK waterproof zipper with DCF taped seams to keep the water out and increase the seam strength. I've been using this design for several years for food storage and everyone that sees it, loves it.

Material Specs:
- Material: 1.43 oz Dyneema® Composite Fabric 100% waterproof

- Grosgrain: Mil Spec Grosgrain pull taps
- Seams: Sewn and felled for strength, sealed with Dyneema seam tape.
Fit's in most 40L and up packs. You can fit around 5 days of food. Can be stored sideways or on end for smaller sized packs. The amount of food that these hold is subjective and based on testing. Compact and freeze dried food will fit more days in them. Whole food that takes up a greater volume may be less days. I've fit 5 up to 5 days in the medium and 7 days in the large with compact and freeze dried food options. Longer food caries I doubled up or add a smaller sized bag.
Although the Material is waterproof and these products are highly weatherproof, and are not designed to submerged. These are ultralight storage bags, they are not bear or mini bear proof.
Items other than the zipper bag are not included and used for staging.
Thank you for checking out my shop and happy hiking.

I have used a Watson bag for 2 plus years as my main food bag. It has held up really well over months of daily use. 2,000 miles of the CDT, the pyrénées high route, fisherman trail in Portugal and the atlas mountains in morrocco, not to mention many 3-5 day trips. It's one of my favorite peices of kit.
