 Great Divider - Waterproof Gear Bag
Highly water-resistant storage for anglers and photographers.
The Joe Blow, soft-cooler appearance belies an engineering achievement comparable to that of the Brooklyn Bridge or spider web: This infinitely adaptable, fiendishly well-organized carryall safeguards your valuable gear no matter how harsh the travel or wet the weather. Its 840-denier nylon is double-coated with polyurethane film. The molded top and bottom provide waterproof protection in standing water, grip slippery surfaces, and repel boat-deck douses and tropical downpours. Resilient high-density foam gives the bag shape and protects the contents within. Strap attachments and seams are welded -- rather than stitched -- to eliminate leakage. Inside, removable foam dividers (with hook-and-loop attachments) can be arranged in any configuration. A transparent floating panel (with zip pockets on both sides) and two removable end pockets make it easy to locate small items. The Divider's light exterior color reflects sun and keeps contents cool. The bag also serves as a great airplane carry-on. With a removable shoulder strap. Imported.

DWR
 The outermost layer of Patagonia's Hip Chest Pack has an ultra-thin polymer treatment called a durable water repellent, or DWR. This treatment penetrates the fibers and lowers the surface tension of the fabric, causing water to bead up and roll off the garment instead of being absorbed.
Water-repellent outer fabric provides additional insulation and prevents liquid from saturating your Patagonia garment's outer fabric, a condition known as 'wet out' that can make you feel damp and clammy. Your garment may even feel like it's leaking, although it's not.
DWR is not a waterproofing treatment and by itself does not provide protection in extended wet weather. But used on a weatherproof Patagonia garment, it will help keep you dry and comfortable by reducing the heat loss through wet fabric
Regular wear and tear, plus exposure to dirt, detergents, insect repellant, and other impurities, causes DWR failure. DWR is not permanent on any fabric. Its effective life depends upon how you care for your garment and how rigorously it is used.
The most effective way to maintain your Patagonia garment's water and stain repellency is to wash it, rinse it, and put it in your dryer. The washing removes contaminants and the heat from the dryer helps redistribute and bond the DWR on the fabric surface. You can also apply a restorative DWR treatment, available at most outdoor retail stores. |
