ZipDry: A Seal Built to Go Under

A roll-top bag keeps out splashes. Watershed's ZipDry closure is an airtight seal, rated watertight at 300 feet of submersion, on polyurethane-coated nylon with RF-welded seams. Pair a Chattooga or Ocoee duffel with its foam-padded liner and radios, cameras and medical electronics ride cushioned and dry.

Watershed FAQ

  • What is a ZipDry seal?

    ZipDry is Watershed's airtight closure. Watershed rates it watertight at 300 feet of submersion, which is why its bags are called submersible rather than just water-resistant. Keep the seal clean so it closes fully.

  • What are Watershed bags made of?

    Our Watershed duffels and packs are polyurethane-coated nylon that is heavy-duty, UV-resistant and waterproof, with RF-welded seams. The liners use closed-cell foam inside a 200-denier nylon shell with a fleece lining.

  • Which Watershed bag should my team carry a med kit in?

    The 22 L Chattooga Dry Duffel is sized for a group med kit or camera gear and lashes into a boat at six points. For a smaller personal kit and radio, the 10.5 L Ocoee works. Add the matching liner for fragile electronics.

  • Do the liners fit any duffel?

    Each liner is made for its own duffel: the Chattooga Liner for the Chattooga Dry Duffel and the Ocoee Liner for the Ocoee Dry Duffel. The fleece lining takes hook-and-loop dividers so you can separate gear.

  • Will a Watershed bag float my gear?

    A sealed bag traps air, but it is a dry bag, not flotation. Lash it into the boat or vehicle and do not rely on it to keep heavy equipment afloat.
