Roll top closure systems provide better protection. 

The roll top design also creates that watertight seal which protects your gear from the elements, including rain, dust, mud and snow. 

North Storm® dry bags are a great way to eliminate unnecessary volume when you close them up. 

Because they allow you to compress any unwanted air out, so they're less bulky and way more compact.

When you're planning your next outdoor adventure, make sure you bring along a North Storm® dry bag because of the roll top closure system. 

It is more reliable and provides better protection for your gear. 

Therefore, it'll help you save space so you can pack more into your adventure!
