I'm looking to pick up a hip/fanny pack and I'm not entirely sure which one to get. Right now I'm leaning towards the William Joseph Surge pack. But the Fishpond Waterdance Guide Pack and the Simms Drycreek hip pack all look like great options.

Does anyone have any of these? Any opinions on which one is better?

Also does anyone know if these can be used as a sling pack as well? My requirements were fairly simple. Something water resistance that can be used in the rain and or survive the occasional splashing and accidental dunking, and something with a water bottle pocket.


Any opinions are welcome! Thanks guys!
