Hot summer days are around the corner and we are having a cold June with unexpected showers so waterproof bags come in handy when you want a bag to keep your things dry.
Whether you are heading to a beach, going on a yacht trip or just commuting in the city, you can consider investing in a waterproof tote or a waterproof backpack.
Paddleboard brand Red has launched a workhorse carry-all that can hold 33 litres in one go. The Waterproof Tote is great when you want to chuck your beach towels, electronics, shoes or wet suits in as you hop on to a kayak or a speedboat for a fun day out.

You can also put liquids like a bottle of bubbly as it’s also leak-proof and dirt-proof and we have tested it out, it does what it says. Featuring a spacious compartment with two pocks on the sides as bottle holders, an ample sleeve with magnetic closure to separate dry and wet items and a zipped pocket to hold your phones and wallet.

Outer there is an additional zipped pocket for easy access to tiny items like keys. The material is durable, meaning it’s scuff, tear and puncture-resistant.
Retailing at £114.95 in either black, blue or olive green, a shopper called it an “absolute essential”. She said: “I have used it pretty much every day, for beach trips, boat trips, swimming lessons… you name it!
“It is so light and so many compartments and the total bonus of it being completely wipe clean and waterproof – if you could see the inside of my car you would understand why this is absolutely essential!”
Another said the bag could fit in a yoga mat and other things she needs for an open swim including a wetsuit, tow float and towel.
On days when you want a waterproof bag for travel, work or a hike, it’s easier to carry your items in a backpack and Mous’ Extreme Commuter Backpack does the perfect job for you, especially if you need to carry a laptop or a tablet.

Mous founder James Griffith did a “drop test” by putting his Macbook laptop in the Extreme Commuter Backpack and dropped it from the top of a building. It landed on his car and bounced to the ground – and the result? The laptop is in working condition but it’s bent on the bottom.
