At 65 litres, the same bluesign-approved recycled 70D nylon waterproof body and eVent air-permeable waterproof base that define the EVAC system work at expedition scale — providing genuine valve-free compression across a full load of sleeping bag, insulation, and clothing simultaneously, while maintaining 10,000mm hydrostatic head waterproofing throughout. For South African backpackers, paddlers, and overlanders who want to waterproof and compress their entire kit in a single sack that doubles as a pack liner, the EVAC 65L in Blue is the most comprehensive dry compression solution in the Sea to Summit range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Full Pack Liner at 65-Litre Scale: At 65 litres the EVAC sack functions as a complete internal pack liner for 50 to 65-litre rucksacks — eliminating the need for a separate rain cover by waterproofing the entire pack contents from the inside, a more reliable approach in South African mountain weather where wind-driven rain bypasses external covers and pack seams remain the primary water ingress point\u003cbr\u003e* eVent Air-Permeable Waterproof Base: The 70D eVent fabric base allows air to pass freely outward when the sack is compressed, while preventing water from entering in the opposite direction — at 65 litres, this valve-free compression capability consolidates a full overnight kit including sleeping bag, insulation layers, and clothing into a meaningfully reduced packed volume without straps, valves, or mechanical components to manage or fail\u003cbr\u003e* Valve-Free Compression Without Straps: Pack your complete compressible kit, roll the hypalon closure down, and sit on or firmly press the sack to push air out through the eVent base — the 65L volume accommodates an entire multi-day kit for overnight routes in the Drakensberg, Cedarberg, and Cape mountain ranges, or a complete kayak expedition sleep and clothing system in a single waterproof, compressed package\u003cbr\u003e* Bluesign-Approved Recycled 70D Nylon Body: The main body fabric is both recycled and bluesign-approved — meeting independent certification standards for responsible material sourcing and ethical production — with a C0 non-PFC DWR finish across both the body and eVent base fabrics, maintaining full waterproof performance without PFAS chemicals across the full working life of the sack on South African trails, rivers, and overland routes\u003cbr\u003e* Hypalon Non-Wicking Roll-Top with Field Repair Buckle: The hypalon roll-top closure maintains a reliable waterproof seal at the closure point without wicking moisture into the sealing material, and is secured with Sea to Summit's patented Field Repair Buckle replaceable in seconds with a standard Phillips screwdriver — a practical field-serviceability feature that becomes particularly valuable on multi-week expeditions far from any gear retailer\u003cbr\u003e* Double-Stitched and Tape-Sealed Seams with White Interior Coating: All seams are double-stitched and fully tape-sealed for waterproof integrity across the complete 65-litre sack body — not limited to the closure — ensuring the 10,000mm hydrostatic head rating is maintained throughout, while the white interior coating provides maximum contrast for gear visibility when locating specific items inside the sack in low-light camp conditions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EVAC 65L in Blue represents the complete-system application of the EVAC technology — rather than organising individual gear categories into separate sacks, the 65L consolidates an entire kit into a single waterproof and compressed unit that slides into a pack, sits inside a kayak hatch, or stows in a vehicle storage bay. The Blue colourway provides clear visual identification alongside other EVAC sizes and Big River dry bags in a mixed dry storage system. Pro tip from Sea to Summit: after compressing the air out through the eVent base, immediately close the sack inside your pack so it cannot draw air back in through the base — pack the 65L into the bottom of your rucksack as a fully waterproofed liner and build the rest of your kit around it for a clean, protected load on every South African adventure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnical Specifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Volume: 65 litres\u003cbr\u003e* Body Fabric: Bluesign-approved recycled 70D nylon with C0 non-PFC DWR finish\u003cbr\u003e* Base Fabric: 70D eVent air-permeable waterproof laminate with C0 non-PFC DWR finish\u003cbr\u003e* Closure: Hypalon non-wicking roll-top with Field Repair Buckle\u003cbr\u003e* Seams: Double-stitched and fully tape-sealed\u003cbr\u003e* Interior: White coating for improved gear visibility\u003cbr\u003e* Base Shape: Oval for pack-contour compatibility\u003cbr\u003e* Hydrostatic Head: 10,000mm\u003cbr\u003e* Non-PFAS: C0 non-PFC DWR on both fabrics\u003cbr\u003e* Best Use: Pack liner for 50–65L rucksacks; full overnight gear organiser; expedition kit consolidation\u003cbr\u003e* Colour: Blue\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect For: Full internal pack liner for 50 to 65-litre backpacking rucksacks on multi-day routes in the Drakensberg, Cedarberg, and Swartberg mountain ranges, complete overnight kit waterproofing for kayaking and canoe expeditions on South African rivers and coastlines where hatch integrity cannot be guaranteed, consolidated expedition gear organisation for overlanding and 4WD adventures where the entire sleep system needs waterproof storage in a single unit, bikepacking multi-day routes on South Africa's gravel and mountain passes where full kit waterproofing replaces the need for individual item dry bags, travel packing where a complete camping or backpacking kit needs waterproof consolidation inside checked luggage or a large expedition duffel, multi-day fishing and shore angling expeditions where a full overnight kit including sleeping bag and clothing needs reliable large-format waterproof storage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReady to waterproof and compress your entire South African adventure kit in one sack?
