Air means it's ultralight, made with 30D hybrid sil-nylon CORDURA. Vent means it purges air through the eVent bottom. Dry means it's factory seam sealed with a roll-top closure, the rolling stay is pre-curved so that it pops open, making it easier to load than a flat stay. Bloc means it nests inside your pack well. Solid means it's durable, and also that you can compress your gear down to a nearly rocksolid state. But the name doesn't quite say it all, Lightened by replacing the compression webbing with paracord. We call it LineLoc Technology, another Granite Gear first. The Block shape is an innovation to help you pack more efficiently inside your pack. Compared to a round shape, the bloc fits better into the corners of your pack, they stack nicely, and eliminate all the "dead air" that can happen when you try to pack with round stuffsacks. Less dead air means better load stability, quicker pack loading, and the possibility of carrying the same amount of gear in a smaller pack, saving you weight.

Better than Expected
At first glance this looks like any other compression sack, and you start to wonder why you bought it in the first place. But then you stuff it full of gear, compress it down to nothing, realize that it fits nicely in your pack, and its waterproof; it's at this point that you come to find out that you actually got your money's worth.As far as compress-ability is concerned, I use this for my Hammock Gear top quilt and I can reduce the size of my bag by half when compared to the sack that it came with.Waterproofing seems excellent as well, I haven't field tested it yet (thankfully). But I did fill my sink full of water, and fully submerged my bag several times, then left it floating in the sink for almost 30 minutes. I wasn't planning on leaving it in the water that long, but I forgot it was in the sink after a few minutes. Much to my surprise my quilt was 100% dry!Great product, and does exactly what it's supposed to do.

Would recommend
Very light weight. You do need to be careful with the chords and clips when sinching down. Two of my clips broke but is still usable.

Good sturdy ultra light sack
Really good compression sack....a bit wonky for my sleeping bag , which is a Stoic 20 and not ultralight down. I find the compression cords to be sturdy and easy to use. It's very light...I use it for my camp clothes, extra socks and my puffy to keep them clean and dry in my pack in a smaller compressed size

Seemingly Ideal
I tried the 18L sack with a 0 degree down bag and was impressed with the compression. I plan on using this in my kayak, which typically stays fairly dry in the bulkhead but there is always a chance of water getting in, especially in big seas, so the waterproof aspect will save me some space and weight by not having to enclose the sack in a dry bag. At this point in time, I can't vouch for the durability of these bags, as I haven't had it for very long nor tried it out for kayak camping yet. What I can say is that they compress well, are lightweight and from my initial tests, waterproof. They would work out extremely well inside a backpack.

Best Dry Compression Sack!
I used this stuff sack for my tent body on the 2 10 day backpacking trips to Philmont Scout Ranch. it is not only amazing at keeping water out, but it also comes in handy at keeping water inside when you have to move to a new campsite and have wet stuff. Not to mention it is also a compression sack! Well worth the price.

Small but works
I gave this only 3 stars due to the binding lines broke on each of the 2 that I bought. Only 1 line on each item. We still use it but tie instead of cinching it. Works good for small stuff. I thought it was larger.

pretty durable, the straps broke on mine after about ...
pretty durable, the straps broke on mine after about mile 800 on a appalachian trail thru hike, but it takes 5 minutes to replace them with paracord.

I liked the drysack so much I bought 2 of them
I like this dry bag very much, so much I bought 2 of them. I'm using the large size for my sleeping bags. I actually did a complete review of this drysack and posted on Youtube. You can find my review here >> https://youtu.be/Rb-zWuF66YI

70g? ウソ!
他のメーカーと比べて重さを基準に購入しました。2つの秤をもってます。1つは100グラム、もう一つは95グラムをさしました。UL化を考えて購入したのですがとてもイヤーな気持ち。防水機能は?の感じす。今まで持っていたイスカのほうが入れやすいし防水ききそう。
