Hello peeps.
I'm looking into dry bags to waterproof some stuff inside my pack.
Looking around there seems to be a whole range of different options ranging from ultra-light "15 D Nylon with silicone coating", what seems to be middle of the ground "PU-coated Taffeta nylon", and then some heavier duty styles such as the Ortlieb designs that use materials called "PD350" and "PS490" etc.
I am flummoxed. Can anyone offer any tips and idea that you think might sway in me one direction or another? I'd like different colours to differentiate between different modules within my pack but I have no idea which type of material to go for.
Surely waterproof is waterproof? Or maybe ignorance is ignorance..
Please help!
