I have found the possibilities bag to hold up very well. Right now, I use it to haul my swim gear to and from the pool from work. While I’m not tossing it in the dirt left and right, this does give it a chance to encounter floors, wet swim trunks, towels, my shoes, etc. I think the color holds up very well. The durability is great.

I don’t think you would have any embarrassment related to these bags, they look great and hold up well. Your stuff will be protected in it. I don’t think the bag is technically water proof, but it is very thick canvas. And if you want to go the extra mile, I know there are wax treatments you can add as well. If you have any questions you should just give them a call. They’re very open to discussion, and are willing to customize the bag as much as you like.

The War bag is huge, by the way. Check the sizes before ordering that thing. Best of luck, they really are great bags.

I like the natural colored bag, but I’m hesitant to buy it. How does the color of the bag stand up to dirt and wear? How noticeable is it when it gets dirty, especially the bottom of the bag? Would throwing the bag in the storage area at the bottom of a bus or dragging it on an airport floor embarrass me? Would my stuff be protected in it, is it water resistant?
