Well worth the price
Was cautious at first as its a fairly expensive bag but having had a cheaper one which came apart after two years you can see where the money has gone.
The bay is really well thought out with lots of good sized pockets. Its also very nicely made, feels durable and is comfortable to wear. Several friends have Overboard gear and its all looking good even after years of use / abuse.
Basically I'm sold on it.

Excellent customer service plus very happy with rucsac.
I highly recommend this company

large and the small phone cases
I bought the large and the small phone case last year for a holiday, both were not waterproof, splash proof at best.

We’re sorry to hear this and appreciate you bringing it to our attention.
This certainly isn’t the experience we want for our customers. All of our phone cases are independently tested and certified to an IP68 rating, meaning they are designed to be fully waterproof and submersible up to 6m for up to 1 hour when correctly sealed and used as instructed.
Because of this, what you’ve described is not typical, and we’d really like the opportunity to look into this further for you.
Please get in touch with our support team (support@overboard.com) so we can investigate and make things right.
Thank you for your feedback.
Waterproof backpack for fishing
Bought item at sale price and 3 free products included. Bought for fishing at the coast to keep all my tackle and gear dry. This waterproof backpack was recommended by a well known fisherman/ writer in an online article which is why I chose it. Haven't used it yet but it easily holds all the gear that I will need for a days fishing. It is well made so I am sure that it will perform as designed.

This is the 2nd back pack I have bought from Overboard the first one is still going well after 6 years of almost daily use but is now a little worn which is to be expected. I am sure the new one will be just as good and it’s high visibility colour will be better for when I am cycling
Very prompt delivery

We’re confident your new one will serve you just as well, and the high-visibility colour is a great choice for safer cycling. Delighted you were happy with the delivery too!

Bags are good but warranty poor
The bags are good but my past experience of the warranty is very poor.
Zips not covered. Bad sun fading of the material not covered.

Reply from OverBoard
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you’re happy with the quality of the bags, but we’re sorry that the warranty situation didn’t meet your expectations. Our warranty covers manufacturing faults, but unfortunately damage to zips and sun fading over time isn’t covered, which is why we offered a replacement zip as a solution.
We do appreciate your continued support and that you’ve placed a new order with us. If there’s anything further we can do to help with your new backpack, please don’t hesitate to get in touch — we want to make sure your experience with OverBoard is a positive one.

I recently ordered from OverBoard UK and honestly had a really good experience. I bought the waterproof backpack and it’s probably the best waterproof bag I’ve used so far. The quality feels really solid and well made, and it actually does what it promises, everything inside stayed completely dry. It’s also really comfortable to carry and has plenty of space, which makes it great for travelling or outdoor trips.
The service was great too. Ordering was quick and easy, and the delivery was faster than I expected. My order arrived well packaged and in perfect condition.
Overall I’m really happy with my purchase. Good quality product, smooth service, and fast delivery. I’d definitely order from OverBoard UK again.

Solid brand you can rely on
Overboard is one of those brands that just seems to get it right. Their gear feels really well made and designed for real outdoor use, not just for looks. Everything feels tough, practical, and built to last.
What I like most is how reliable their waterproof gear is. You can tell a lot of thought has gone into making products that properly protect your stuff, especially if you’re around water or outdoors a lot.
Their customer support has also been great whenever I’ve needed help. Responses were quick and helpful, which makes the overall experience with the brand even better.
