The reviewer described the SERK Drawstring Backpack's thick, slightly stiff waterproof canvas as durable, although it required adjustment to fit the back and shoulders. The bottom compartment can be rolled up and stored until needed, keeping it out of the way during conventional use. The reviewer found several internal pockets and two small RFID-protected external pockets useful for quickly reaching items through weather-sealed zippers.
The reviewer said the SERK Drawstring Backpack is not totally waterproof because its drawstring opening leaves an opening about the circumference of a small egg. The reviewer accidentally pulled the knotted nylon ropes through the D-rings several times, though a larger or thicker knot could remedy that issue.
