Difference between water repellent and waterproof?
A water repellent bag like the Scout Duffle has a DWR-coated outer fabric that sheds rain briefly. In sustained rain or submersion water gets through the fabric and seams. A waterproof bag like the HH Duffel Bag PVC or the Light series has fully welded or rolled closures that prevent water ingress. Check the Helly Hansen accessories for wash bags and small waterproof pouches.
