DESCRIPTION

EWS22 prioritizes weather protection but does not sacrifice utility for your everyday pursuits. Easy-access entry to the main cavity comes via a flexible weathertight flap, which is secured by two self-engaging, directionally-locking, magnetic fidlocks.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L Fabric

STORM-READY

EWS is constructed out of a custom-developed and stunning waterproof textile. We took the same textile in our MOUNTAIN line, a balanced-woven and solution dyed 420D Nylon 6, and had it finished with a light-colored TPU laminate and a PU kiss-coated face for waterproofness and weldability.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L Waterproof

ADVANCED TECHNICAL CONSTRUCTION

The emergence of years of in-house R&D work, EWS utilizes seam sealing, radio-frequency welding, and a myriad of simple, yet elegant engineering feats, resulting in a waterproof daily driver true to EVERGOODS signature form, access, and utility.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L Front Pocket

INTUITIVE ACCESS

Protective gear often sacrifices access. We designed EWS to be different. The quick access admin panel, hidden behind the front flap, offers mobile organization. At the ready is a water-resistant zippered pocket with key leash and two drop in pockets, one empty and one with pen slots. A stowable drop-in flap offers additional protection.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L Durability

AUTOLOCK: ON

The main flap of EWS automatically secures in place via two directionally-locking magnetic Fidlock closures. When locked, these closures secure against unintended openings when the pack is inverted or lifted by the flap. To unlock, simply pull downward and the magnets will disengage.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L Internal Cavity

TECH PROTECTION

The main cavity opens wide, is light-colored for better visibility, and offers a large, versatile volume for all your daily carry needs. Inside is a low-profile padded laptop sleeve and a smaller tablet sleeve. The stretch fabric of the sleeve hugs the back of the bag so it is out of the way when you don’t need it.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L Breathable Back Panel

BREATHABLE BACK PANEL

Our custom-developed back panel is built from a two-layer construction of 3D spacer mesh and abrasion-resistant 50D monofilament. In short: it’s a durable, smooth, high air-flow harness. The back panel is seam sealed with a subtle drainage hole to allow water runoff.

Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 7 reviews.

This is a very underrated bag and I would argue is one of if not the best Evergoods bag. It's comfortable, looks great, and is very versatile. Tht waterproof material is great and the overall design is top notch. My only complaint would be that there are no water bottle pockets. I hope EG continues this line and material.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L

So far so good! Love the quick and easy access! I try to work in Florida in the Summers as an outdoor guide, so I think this will be great with the random rains that come my way on the islands. Not sure how lamination will hold up, especially it being black and getting hotter in the sun than a lighter colored bag, but time will tell! (honestly might resort to other bags on super sunny and mostly non rainy days to protect my investment, but we'll see what my future self decides)

Customer photo review of ELEMENT Weathershed 22L

This is by far the best backpack I’ve ever used!! I’ve been through many. It’s perfect. A huge big bag inside. Perfect laptop and pad storage. One big zipper in front is awesome. The closure system works perfectly! Truly best bag ever! Simplicity at its best that works! So practical and useful.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L

Love it! I especially like the light color of the interior which makes it so much easier to see what’s down there.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L

Very well made. I love the waterproof feature of this backpack. I just wished they have a waterprrof zipper compartment on the front flap and a side zipper for easier access to the main compartment.

ELEMENT Weathershed 22L

I ordered the bag at launch, and held off writing a review until I used it several times. It is not my first choice as an everyday bag because of the limited pockets. However, I really enjoy the weathershed as a daypack when I am traveling. I’ve used it in downpours and unexpected snow storms and it has always kept my gear dry. The expandable capacity is also a big plus in my book. I also appreciate how comfortable the bag is. Now, it is my preferred backpack when I am planning to be out and about. I get the comments on the price, but I feel like I am getting my money’s worth.
