Archelon 28L Waterproof Backpack — Hella Dry

Meet the Hella Dry Archelon — the ultimate 28L waterproof and floating backpack built for those who refuse to let the elements slow them down. Whether you're wading through flats in search of redfish, tracking mallards in the marsh, or navigating the rapids of the Taos Box, the Archelon keeps your gear 100% dry, secure, and organized no matter what the day throws at you.

Crafted from rugged 1680D nylon with waterproof zippers and an IPX7 waterproof rating, the Archelon delivers total protection from water, dirt, and debris in the harshest outdoor conditions. Smart organization features include an easy-access front pouch, an exterior flat pocket for your phone or wallet, and a spacious main compartment with three internal pockets to keep your essentials neatly stored and ready to go. A removable waist belt and chest strap provide added stability and comfort during your most intense adventures — from the duck marsh to the mountain rapids and everywhere in between.

At just 3.4lbs with dimensions of 18"x11"x7", the Archelon is lightweight enough to carry all day and tough enough to take a beating. Removable side straps secure fly rods or sleeping pads, heavy-duty grab handles give you multiple carry options, and a stay-dry back pad keeps moisture, sweat, mud, and blood off your back. Backed by a 2-year warranty and a 30-day no-questions-asked return policy — the Archelon is the last waterproof backpack you'll ever need. Gear up and conquer the outdoors with confidence.
