The Patagonia Guidewater Backpack is a fully submersible waterproof pack built for anglers who need dependable protection for essential gear in demanding fishing conditions. Its minimalist construction keeps weight down without sacrificing durability, while a waterproof IPX-7 rated design helps protect contents during full immersion.
Made with rugged recycled materials, the Guidewater Backpack also features a hydrophobic back panel and shoulder straps that resist absorbing water, an integrated net scabbard and a removable internal organizer pocket for flexible storage on the water.
The Guidewater Backpack is IPX-7 rated and designed to keep its contents protected even during full immersion. Its streamlined waterproof construction makes it well suited for wading, boating, travel and other situations where gear may be exposed to heavy rain or direct contact with water.
The pack is built from sturdy 100% recycled nylon fabric and webbing with a 100% recycled polyester back panel and lining. The durable construction is designed for repeated use in demanding fishing environments while incorporating recycled materials throughout the pack.
The back panel and shoulder straps are designed to resist absorbing and retaining water. This hydrophobic construction helps reduce unnecessary water weight and keeps the pack more comfortable when moving between deep wading, boats and shoreline conditions.
An integrated net scabbard is built directly into the back panel, providing convenient and secure net storage without interfering with movement. The design accommodates either left- or right-handed use for easier access on the water.
An internal organizer pocket keeps smaller items separated from the main compartment. When faster access is needed, the organizer can be removed and attached to the pack's external lash points.
The Guidewater Backpack is compatible with Patagonia's Convertible Vest and Wader Workstation. This allows anglers to expand their storage system while maintaining easy, interference-free access to frequently used fishing gear.
