A quick and simple question to brenthaven bag owners: are these bags waterproof? I persume yes, but it is something I cannot find explicitly stated nowhere.

    They are hardly 'waterproof,' but...



    I'd say they'd easily keep the moisture out in a light rain or even showers for a short reasonable amount of time. They're mesh / ballistic weave after-all. Plus, the laptop would be in its own covered sleeve within the bag anyway for extra protection from water.

    It seems that you get some protection because of construction and materials used, and not because the bags have been designed as waterproof. So, that's why 'waterproof' is not included in the features?
