Sea to Summit Evac Compression Dry Bag 8L (High Rise RCS) compresses mid-sized soft kit using the eVac® base to expel air while keeping moisture out, saving pack space for multi-day trips.
Overview:
The Evac 8L Compression Dry Bag is designed for backpackers and travellers who want to compact jackets, midlayers and other soft gear without sacrificing dryness. The eVac® base is engineered to be waterproof but air-permeable so that pushing on the bag squeezes air out through the base while preventing water ingress, eliminating purge valves. The body uses Ultra-Sil 30D nylon with a PFC-free DWR finish, and seams are double-stitched and tape-sealed to give internal dryness. Multiple ultralight compression straps with ladderlocks and quick-release buckles provide even compression and secure load retention, while the Field Repair Buckle secures the roll-top closure.
Ideal as an internal compression and organisation solution, the Evac 8L reduces bulk on hikes and travels and helps keep gear neatly stored and protected. It’s more focused on internal pack efficiency than heavy external mounting.
