To ask which branded backpacks are waterproof?

My son has Adidas and it’s a canvas material so when it rains everything in his bag gets soaked.

He loves Adidas, hype, Nike etc but can’t really tell online if the bags are waterproof and doesn’t often mention it. Has anyone got a backpack with a link to it, that’s waterproof?

£130 is a bit above my budget for a school back pack but north face is a good idea. Hadn’t thought of them so will have a look.

I use fabsil waterproofing spray on my sons rucksack - it def helps (though I’m not sure exactly how much). Worth a try though.

I put one of these inside my bag, they are cheap

IME waterproof rucksacks are either very expensive or require quite careful treatment to stay waterproof.

Dry bags can be got for under 10 and stay waterproof and are protected by the bag, which can still be treated like bags get treated

The specialist camera/ photographers backpacks are very rain proof but that’s not much use for you particularly.
