The MSR Dromlite Bags are a lighter, but equally tough, version of MSR's Dromedary Bags for the weight-conscious backpacker or camper. MSR Dromlite Bags take the hassle out of filling, carrying, and pouring water in the field. MSR designed their Dromlite Bags to withstand the most trying conditions. With a temperature threshold from freezing to boiling, and abrasion-resistant Cordura construction, these sturdy Bags hold up to the most rigorous adventures. MSR added a low-profile handle making it easy to fill. MSR Dromlite Bags have added perimeter webbing allowing you to attach it to your pack or hang it up at the base camp. The bonus 3-in-1 cap ensures effortless filling, drinking, and pouring from the Dromlite Bags.

Review Summary
Customer Images
Here's what customers have to say
The water bags are generally well-received for their durability, lightweight design, and versatility in outdoor activities like backpacking and camping. However, some customers reported issues such as leaks, bad water taste, and difficulty drying the interior. There were also complaints about the caps and nozzles being inconvenient, as well as the larger bags puncturing or tearing more easily. Overall, the bags seem to be a good option for outdoor water storage, but the quality and performance may vary, so it's recommended to carefully inspect and test them before relying on them.

This was a replacement purchase.
This was a replacement purchase. (Don't leave them in the sun at elevation 5300 feet for 2 days. It weakens the material and causes them to develop holes. )

Great bag. The cap is
Great bag. The cap is a bit finicky to tighten back on when the bag is full.

Flip caps string could be better…
Have not used yet. The quality feels good. The middle black refill where the string is on both the 6L and the 10L get caught and are hard to open and close. I’m sure they will be easier to use than the 10L Camelback which is heavier.

Lightweight, small when packed, highly functional
I used these on a backpacking trip into the Grand Canyon. 4L for a water stash on the way in, 4L in my pack and a 6K for camp. These DromLite are replacing the original dromedary backs which have lasted a couple decades. Every ounce matters going down into the Grand Canyon and these are SO light! I hope these light weight bags last as long as the original. The hanging feature is great for camp. The spout and cap work really nicely. It stays closed in my pack even with other things on top of it. The little piece used to hold the cap to the lid isn't well designed and broke on all of mine. I will cut it off next time. The red and black cord on the end isn't well attached and I found it in the dirt a couple times. MSR could secure it better at the factory with a knot which keeps it secure.

Do not hesitate to purchase!!!!!
I have a 4 L and a 6 L bag. Really love how small they pack down when not carrying water. I live somewhere where I dry camp a lot so carrying water in is a necessity and these bags make it easy.

Durable, very well made, thoughtful
Durable, very well made, thoughtful features without a lot of extra, love the ability to hang it and this was designed into the product. Doesn't flavor the water.

DromLite 2L water bag
I purchased this last spring for my motorcycle trip from Spring Branch, TX up to the Arctic Circle in Alaska and back. It performed flawlessly for the whole 31 days and 11,525 miles on the back of my MoskoMoto panniers. The little dispensing valve was great, as I could refill small water bottles, brush teeth, splash face and wash hands, wash/rinse dishes, mix cocktails, etc., all right from the bag holder on the back of my bike. I am very happy with the bag and always pleased with MSR products and their Customer Service Dept.

Can you attach a drinking hose to this? And do the MRS filters screw directly to this as well?
