Super strong waterproof zip lock bags
05-05-04

Aloksaks

These are zip lock bags made from especially thick plastic with a special seal that guarantees waterproofness (and odor-proofness). They are good for separating clothing and food for camping and traveling. We keep everything from socks and underwear to cameras and passports in them. In monsoon season in Vietnam they held up quite well and kept our gear dry and tidy.

i got several of these for carrying camping food in bear areas.i found that the seal will "blow out" if you press down on the bag if there is any air in it. and yes i carefully closed the seal.i went back to using two zip lock bags inside a heavy plastic pack liner.
