The Frelaxy Hi-Visibility Rain Cover is a functional accessory designed to add a layer of moisture protection to your outdoor gear. It utilizes a high-density polyester fabric treated with a polyurethane coating rated to withstand a 5000mm water column. This specific model addresses the common "parachute effect" found in many covers by incorporating a reinforced cross-buckle system that keeps the material tight against the bag even in 30mph gusts.
Features include a bottom-mounted drainage grommet, which is a practical addition designed to let any moisture escape should it enter through the back panel of the backpack. This prevents water from puddling at the base and soaking into the bottom of the bag. The fabric is thin enough to compress down to the size of a small citrus fruit, making it easy to store in a side pocket for quick access during sudden weather changes.
- The integrated drainage hole prevents internal water accumulation.
- A wide range of sizes (S to XXL) allows for a more tailored fit across different pack volumes.
- Heat-pressed reflective strips help with safety in low-visibility environments.
Users should note that these covers tend to run large. If your backpack is relatively slim or lacks external attachments, selecting one size down can help ensure the elastic perimeter remains taut. While the material is designed to resist minor brush abrasions, it is best kept away from jagged gear. It is also recommended to air the unit out for 24 hours after purchase to clear any initial manufacturing odors from the waterproof coating.
If you are looking for a more heavy-duty option for military-style packs, the M-Tac Waterproof Rain Cover provides a thicker denier fabric.
