I grabbed two 44L at @19.99 from local ALDI, it is 100% waterproof, better that water resistant, but you still unable to soak them in water for long time if diving is your goal.
Canoeing/kayak is great application for this kind of duffel bag.
I cannot find 58L one, they are gone, all size at same price.
HD garbage bags are cheaper and lighter. ill pack lighter stuff like sleeping bags/mats and any other stuff without sharp edges etc
totes for stuff that doesnt matter so much but still dont want splashed and organised.
our kayak is pretty stable though, I can stand up paddle board on it and avoid surf if I dont want to get wet
For bikepacking and hiking, you can't risk it. The bags get so much abused from the sharp bush/branches.
Anyone know about the Aldi Adventuridge Self Inflating Mattresses or Down Sleeping Bags? Seem pretty cheap…
By the way, I grab the feather down sleep bag as well at 90 bucks each.

480g is a bit misleading, its not gsm which is more commonly used which would put it in the vicinity of -5 to -10 comfort
im not all that familiar with feather down but if it was synthetic fill that would only give a comfort rating of approx 8-10deg C, perhaps others with more experience can chime in. I mention this as pretty much everywhere from mid north coast of NSW is under those temps at night and you will be in for a rough night unless you plan to sleep in ski gear ;-)
Car camping allow us to carry one extra equipment to keep warm during night time. But hiking/trekking trip need to balance weight/space vs comfortable of sleep, this sleep bag is not best one, while it allows hiking trip backpack to carry other essential items.
I got one and slept sub zero in Tasmania no probs.
They haven't mentioned about the weights of the bags though.
