FAQ

Waterproof Backpack for Paddleboarding

Yes. 100% waterproof. The RIVONOVA Waterproof Backpack is designed for demanding water environments where keeping your gear dry matters.

It features a high-density resin airtight zipper combined with a TPU-sealed inner lining, creating a fully enclosed waterproof barrier with an IPX7 waterproof rating. Whether you are kayaking through splashes, paddleboarding in waves, or your backpack gets temporarily exposed to water, your essentials stay protected.

Unlike traditional backpacks that only resist light rain, this backpack is built for real water adventures — keeping your phone, camera, clothes, and valuables dry when conditions get unpredictable.

IPX7 means the backpack can be submerged in water up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes without any water entering. This is the highest practical waterproof rating for backpacks.

The DryVault™ System is RIVONOVA’s waterproof protection technology combining an airtight zipper, HF-Welded seams, and rugged 840D TPU fabric to help keep your gear dry and protected during water adventures.

The two-way air valve allows the backpack to float when properly closed, adding an extra layer of security during water activities.

For kayakers, paddleboarders, and boaters, accidental drops happen. Instead of watching your gear sink, the floating design helps keep your backpack visible and easier to recover.

(Always ensure the zipper is fully sealed before entering the water.)

Traditional dry bags focus on waterproof storage. RIVONOVA goes further with the DryVault™ System — an airtight zipper, welded seams, and durable 840D TPU fabric — combined with backpack comfort, floating capability, and organized storage for real water adventures.

No. The RIVONOVA Waterproof Backpack is built for outdoor environments.

The TPU-coated 840D nylon exterior provides resistance against saltwater, UV exposure, and everyday outdoor wear.

After water activities, simply rinse with fresh water and allow the backpack to dry naturally to help maintain long-term performance.

Yes. A waterproof backpack should protect your gear without becoming uncomfortable to carry.

RIVONOVA features an ergonomic carrying system with adjustable chest and waist straps, helping distribute weight more evenly during longer activities.

The breathable quick-dry back panel and comfortable shoulder straps are designed for:

  • Long kayak sessions
  • Extended paddleboarding trips
  • Hiking to remote beaches
  • Carrying gear between launch points

Because your adventure should be remembered for the experience — not shoulder fatigue.

Very easy. The smooth TPU-coated exterior helps prevent dirt, sand, and moisture from sticking, making cleanup simple after beach days, kayaking trips, or boating adventures.

Most outdoor messes can be removed with: Fresh water rinse & Gentle wiping. No complicated maintenance is required.

Actually Waterproof

I wasn’t sure at first, but this bag really handled water way better than I expected. Used it around a waterfall and it kept all my stuff dry. Super happy with it.

I’ve taken this waterproof bag on several outdoor trips and it has been amazing. The shoulder straps are comfortable, and it’s easy to carry. I love knowing my clothes and gear stay dry. The quality feels great and it’s become one of my favorite outdoor essentials.

Spacious and Truly Waterproof

I was able to fit several changes of clothes and other essentials inside with plenty of room left. I don’t have to worry about my gear getting wet. Great size and excellent quality!

Surprisingly waterproof and it floats!

I brought this backpack to a creek for a weekend adventure and accidentally dropped it into the water. The bag stayed floating on the surface and kept the inside dry. I was able to grab it easily and everything inside was protected.This backpack is now my go-to gear for exploring the outdoors.

Made for days on the water

Used this on a kayaking trip and loved how practical it is. It keeps everything organized and protected while I’m moving between the water and the shore. A great piece of gear for anyone who spends time outdoors.

This has been a game changer for my kayaking trips. It fits perfectly on my kayak, keeps my gear protected from splashes, and gives me one less thing to worry about while I’m out on the water.

Perfect peace of mind on the water

Took this out on the lake and it performed exactly as expected. It stayed dry, floated securely, and kept my gear protected while kayaking. It’s great knowing my essentials are safe even when things get wet.

Built tough for outdoor adventures

I’m impressed with how solid this bag feels. It handled rough ground, outdoor gear, and everyday abuse without any issues. The durable construction gives me confidence taking it anywhere — from the river to the campsite.

Sleek, Functional, and Rugged

I love the clean design of this pack. No unnecessary bells and whistles—just a solid, waterproof vault for your stuff. It fits into overhead bins easily, and the front buckles are great for attaching. It’s a bit stiff when you first get it, but it breaks in nicely after a few uses.

Better than the Famous Brands

I was looking at Patagonia and Yeti waterproof bags, but they are triple the price. This Rivonova bag gives you 95% of the same performance for a fraction of the cost. The material is heavy-gauge. If you want professional-grade waterproof protection, this is the one to get.

Excellent value for asking price compared to big name competitors

I really wanted to like this waterproof backpack - and I do. It appears very well made and the resin waterproof zipper is one of the better ones I've seen across two other waterproof packs I have. It's stiff at first but does loosen a bit after a few openings/closings. Use the included maintenance grease as needed. Just.....be gentle with the zipper to avoid breaking it. Aside from the laptop pocket, this is a single compartment, deep well pack that you could stuff a pair of folded up waders into - that's how roomy it is. However, this roominess is at the expense of internal organization pockets. The back and shoulder straps are very well padded (especially the back) making the backpack very comfortable to wear. That aside, there are no hip straps or waist belt, so take that into consideration if that level of comfort is important to you. The side straps provide additional carrying capacity for soft items like jackets, etc. The top handle is solid and inspires confidence. The "tactical" rings provide places to hang some carabiners and attach miscellaneous items, though I'm a bit disappointed in the lack of more exterior storage space. The flotation ability and air valve are nice touches as well, and the bag inflates a good bit (see photos). All in all, a good bag but for the price, I think some additional organizing compartments inside would have really taken this backpack to the next level. Still, this is a well-made backpack. Lastly, the included gift box and wrapping paper were really, really nice touches. Feature-wise, I'd give this backpack four stars. But compared to similarly-sized (and featured) IPX7 waterproof packs from big name brands, this waterproof backpack represents an excellent value for the money.

Just got this backpack and the build quality immediately stood out. The material feels thick and tight, not cheap at all. It gives me real confidence that it can handle being around (and even on) the water.

Everything feels well-made and solid, and I’d have no problem using this for kayaking or paddleboarding. Very happy with the purchase so far.

So far so good! I received my new Rivonova 30L Waterproof backpack, and I am now using it for daily beach excursions. The 30L holds a ton of gear. The shoulder and chest straps are comfortable. The main compartment zipper needs a drop of oil to move more freely - an easy fix with the small tube of lubricant that comes with the bag - smart move! The test of time and saltwater will determine how well this bag holds up.

Best Wet/Dry Bag I’ve Owned

I use this for my morning swim sessions. I put my wet towel and trunks inside after my workout, and it never leaks into my car. On the flip side, when I’m at the pool, I keep my dry clothes in it so they don't get splashed. It’s a bit overkill for a gym bag, but I love the "over-engineered" feel.

My Son Loves It!

Bought this for my son’s graduation trip. He called me just to say how much he loves it because it kept his GoPro and phone safe. It’s a very sturdy, high-quality gift for anyone who likes the outdoors.

Sand-proof and Waterproof!

We spend every weekend on our boat, and this bag is now our "go-to." Not only does it keep the water out, but it also keeps the sand out! At the end of the day, I just hose the whole bag down on the dock. It’s super easy to clean and the bright color makes it easy to spot among all our other gear.

Peace of Mind for My Gear

I use this as a "dry shell" for my camera inserts when I’m shooting near the ocean. Salt spray is a gear killer, but this bag seals it out completely. The zipper is a bit stiff at first, but that’s because it’s actually airtight. Pro tip: Use a little zipper lube and it’s smooth as butter. Highly recommended for protecting expensive tech.

Durable Backpack

I’m usually skeptical of brands I haven't heard of, but the build quality here is insane. The welded seams are flawless and the buckles feel heavy-duty, not that flimsy plastic you see on budget bags. It’s got a very "industrial" rugged look that I love. It’s definitely more of a technical bag than a fashion backpack, which is exactly what I wanted.
