MLD Is Closed Until the First of Next Month. Interest in super ultralight gear has grown far beyond our production capacity, and in order to maintain reasonable lead times and the quality Mountain Laurel Designs is known for, we’ve moved to a monthly ordering system for 2026. How It Works: At the beginning of each month, we open ordering for a limited time. Once our production capacity is reached, the store closes again until the 1st of the following month. You’re still welcome to browse the site, research products, and build your wish list while ordering is closed. LEARN MORE.

• Small size is perfect for: Emergency kit, medical kit, GPS, phone, small items.
• Medium size is perfect for: Very small down quilt or sleeping bag, clothing.
• Large size is perfect for: Down and/or light synthetic quilt or sleeping bag, bear hang bag w/ an OP Sak
• X-Large size is perfect for: Use as a small pack liner, or for other large items in your pack. (It’s big but – NOT A BEAR HANG BAG!)

Purchase them individually, or as a set. Set of three includes one small,one medium, and one large. Set of four includes one small,one medium, one large, and one x-large.

FEATURES

• Maximum strength construction w/ all bonded seams.
• Extremely light and very strong.
• Top buckles are securely bonded and sewn to the main bag using two layers of 3 oz per sq/yd hybrid DCF.
• 1.5 oz per sq/yd Tough DCF (Dyneema® Composite Fabric A.K.A. Cuben Fiber) – DCF laminates (there are many types, strengths and weights) use unidirectional pre-impregnated tapes of in-line plasma treated Dyneema/Spectra fibers spread to mono-filament level Mylar films with titanium UV protection. This weight and type of DCF is over three times stronger and more waterproof then what we use in our tarps. Plus our bonding is highly UV resistant.
• Envelope Shape – An MLD Innovation in light stuff-sacks – allows for the shortest and strongest seams with the least pressure on the seams when stuffed. This shape packs easier too.
• Top rolls down and then buckles closed like a dry bag. Large sizes can be rolled down to become one size smaller. * Size up when in doubt*
• MLD product tag functions as the bottom pull grip to ease removing stuffed clothing, etc.
• Tough Lightweight Buckle – OK to hang and use as a Bear Bag. Max weight is 10 lbs | 4.5 kg for hanging.

NOTE: Exterior should be protected from puncture and heavy abrasion. The MLD DCF Dry Bag is very strong and waterproof – but its not a 12 oz super burly river dry-bag to shove into the bow of your kayak either.

    Love, love, love…..
    Great product, well made, fits my stuff.

  2. nelsonpagel1 (verified owner)

    I bought the large size, very sturdy material and well made, price is decent compared to the other options. I also bought other storage bags – all well made.

  3. kahmadllop (verified owner)

    The best lightweight drybag. There are more durable or dry options, but those are at least 5 times heavier. If abrasion is not a problem, there is nothing better in the market.

  4. Donald Felix (verified owner)

    This drybag fits my tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping pad, with enough room for some extra night time clothes. Everything I need at the end of the day is in one place, and *DRY*.
    Thanks, MLD.

  5. Jeff Corbett (verified owner)

    The small size will hold 3 bags of Ramen Noodles and 3 packs of bacon bits. 4 of these food packs will fit into a kevlar bear bag. Easy to organize and secure the backpack. Then simple to protect your food supplies.
