Waterproof Roll-Top Backpack | GOTBAG

Roll Up and Roll Out!

Why settle for a boring, conventional backpack when you can have the GOTBAG ROLLTOP BACKPACK? This stylish and practical backpack is perfect for adventure seekers and freedom lovers-who also like saving the plant and ocean at the same time. It's made from durable, adjustable straps and can easily expand to fit all your essentials.

Our crew is no stranger to backpacks. In fact, we review quite the range of them. So, when GOTBAG hit our back-pack-dar we knew we had to test it out. Who wouldn’t want to test a backpack that helped reduce the impact on the planet, so you can roam more on it in style?

Our crew had to test one of these out, so we grabbed a bag, hit the road, and put the GOTBAG to the test.

INITIAL IMPRESSIONS

When you hit GOTBAG’s lineup of backpacks, there is no shortage of options. Rolltops (which we reviewed) standard backpacks, daypacks, and even accessories like wallets, GOTBAG has literally GOT a Bag for you! We grabbed a Roll-Top bag (in Algae color) for our review- but believe us the choice was hard to widdle down and decide on!

The ROLLTOP

Adjustable & durable – The all-rounder for adventure seekers & freedom lovers. Protects your essentials from wind and weather and expands easily thanks to the flexible RollTop and adjustable side straps. It protects your laptop from scratches with a separate, removable 15-inch case.

ZIP ‘n Front

STAY DRY.

Our Initial crew Impression: Let’s roll-out!

TESTING IT OUT

Our crew had a brilliant idea (at least to us it was)- let’s test the backpack on a lake trip with the crew this past weekend (we went on the trip first of course). Let’s load up and see how the bag handles the day on the lake.

From the word Go- our crew grabbed the ROLLTOP and packed it with the day’s essentials. The bag has plenty of space with 17-26 inches of rolled up or down real estate. We initially loaded the bag with Sunglasses, Wallet, Cell Phone, Sweatshirt (started the day with just a T-Shirt but know the temp would drop later in the day), and a few other random items (like sunscreen and towels). We even tossed in a few drinks and some snacks in case we got hungry. Spolier alert- we started the day with a full bag, then we left with it empty. The bag held all the items like a champ and the adjustable clip on the top let us roll more or less depending on what was inside throughout the day.

The front zipper was a great addition because it gives you a simple way to zip in your phone, wallet, keys, or whatever else you have to stow, without having to get access to the entire bag. The added laptop sleeve inside the backpack is a great way to bring along your workbook without fear of water damage!

Our most highlighted moment was the fact that we can easily roll open the bag, toss more in, or take items out, roll up and go. The one clip top is perfect for easy secure and the back padded support makes carrying the backpack a breeze. One cool feature is when you set the backpack on the ground it holds itself up so you can toss in a few items from any distance and channel your inner Lebron!

The ROLLTOP was perfect for packing light or heavy on the trip, easy to take on and off, accessible no matter which way we carried it, and was truly waterproof.

BRAND INFO

 
 

In 2016, we started collecting plastic from the ocean, recycling it and processing it into backpacks. Since then, we've been able to steadily increase the capacity of our clean-up program and thus the amount of plastic we collect each month. Even beyond this, we are continuously increasing our impact: Based on scientific findings and on-site experience, we know that it is as important to prevent improperly disposed plastic waste to keep it from entering the ocean in the first place.

Our products show that plastic from the environment can be used to make new things. We need to commit to reusing more and more plastic in the future and to all of us being more responsible with natural resources.
