Guidewater 29L Backpack keeps essentials dry with fully submersible waterproof protection

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"I use the Guidewater 29L on every fishing trip—it’s bombproof and truly waterproof. I’ve dropped it in the river, packed it for boat days, and hiked through rainstorms, and everything inside stays bone dry. The removable organizer is genius for swapping between gear setups."


From wading waist-deep in river crossings to chasing storms on the flats, we rely on the Patagonia Guidewater 29L Backpack to keep our gear dry and protected. Built with rugged recycled nylon and coated with PU and TPU for full waterproofing, this submersible pack carries essentials safely through any condition. Its IPX7 rating means it can handle full submersion without leaking, making it the perfect companion for wet-weather hikes, float trips, or long days on the water.


A breathable hydrophobic back panel and padded shoulder straps keep things comfortable on the trail or at the river’s edge, while a removable waist belt offers extra support when hauling heavier loads. The internal organizer clips in or out easily, and external lash points and D-rings make it simple to attach rods, tools, or net holders. Whether we’re chasing trout, tarpon, or adventure itself, the Guidewater 29L combines Patagonia’s legendary durability with the watertight performance we trust in the wild.
