Let’s face it, sometimes life throws a sudden downpour, or you find yourself needing to cross a surprisingly deep puddle. Or maybe you just sweat a lot. Point is, you need a hands-free place to keep your phone and valuables bone dry. Enter the Matador Freerain Waterproof Packable Hip Pack.






Best for “ultralight travel and extremely wet conditions” (their words!), this 2-4 litre adjustable capacity wonder is built tough. It features a waterproof main compartment with internally sealed seams and wear panels reinforced with UHMWPE (yes, that’s a real material name) for extreme durability and tear strength. The rolltop has a zipper option for fast access, and it compresses into a tiny pouch (3x3x4.25in packed!) with an included compression sack. At just 4oz and $60, this waterproof fortress is ready for any adventure, wet or otherwise.
