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.
Counting the ounces? Those looking for weight savings will love the DromLite bags. A mountaineer's favorite, this Fast & Light version of our Dromedary Bag is 30% lighter than a standard Dromedary yet still tough enough for the most extreme outdoor pursuits.

The Dromlite has tough enough material to keep you from worrying about where you set it down or about anything else in your pack potentially puncturing it. It is easy to use and best of all, when your done using it, it flattens down to almost zero volume for the return trip back. It is easy to clean and dry. Make sure to swish some soapy water around and rinse before using. There's a little bit of a subtle new plastic taste upon first use. So I'd rinse it out and use it once before you head out in the field then you should be good. | |

Tough and Reliable Bladder | |
| Rating: | |
I have yet to find a water-storage device that is as tough as the Dromlite is for its weight. I primarily utilize the Dromlites in drip-filter systems and water storage for groups (>4). But they have been used as pillows, shelter anchors, cold (ice) packs and ballast without spring a leak. A couple of times they have served well as hydration bladders though that is not what they were designed for and are not as good as Camelbak or Platypus bladders. The new handle design makes filling and cleaning much easier than previous versions. IMO, its biggest shortcoming is its rather absorbent outer fabric. | |

Drop it, sit on it, pull on it, run it over with a car...(yes it's been done) and it's not going to break. Very versatile bag since you can run several types of attachments through it for various needs. Run a rope through the eye hole on the top and hang it for use in camp, or use the drinking tube for use on a hike. Stores nicely in a backpack for back country outings and very easy to fill and clean. No nasty, stale, toxic, plastic, chemical taste whatsoever! Literally, indestructible. | |

| Love this! I didn't think it would hold that much water - but was very surprised. Enjoyed being able to brush my teeth and wash my face with running water. Being able to hang it up is a great perk. Fit great in the kayak and is very durable. Will be purchasing an additional MSR DromLite Bag soon. | |

Nice dromedary bag | |
| Rating: | |
The 6 liter bag is good for extended trips where water is sparse. It's easy to fill right from the river and add a water purifier. Its great for hanging in a tree for a shower or to wash hands before cooking. The only downfall is that carrying six liters of water is pretty dern heavy. | |

I bought the 6L version of this bag, and it's great. It's really, really durable while still being light and manageable. It folds up small for when it's not being used, and the grommet at the top is great for enabling you to hang it from stuff. Good buy for sure. | |

| This bag has been through hell already!! Have made inprovements since previous models. Folding the bags used to make them weak in certain areas. MSR has extended the live of this product two times over. Great results in the field. No leaks, better weeks | |

i love my water sack | |

This thing seems to be holding up to some pretty rough use. Like the little spout but think I need to get a hose for it. Not the best for hanging on the outside of a pack needs more grommets. | |

| This is a great addition to my Backpacking gear. The DromLite bag allows easy backpacking portage of water for dry camps. Then it fold away until needed again. the nylon skin makes the DromLite pretty bombproof for camp use. | |

| I am not too sure what you might be sacrificing to gain the weight benefit of the DromLite, as these are still pretty tough. Have carried them in packs and used them car camping. Easy, light and useful. | |

Design Needs Work | |
| Rating: |  |
Sometimes it is better to get your hands on something first rather than buy it just by the description and picture. Kloogy would be the best word for this bag. It neither is easy to fill nor easy to empty nor easy to dry (inside or out - the outside material doesn't shed water as I expected - it actually absorbs it and it is extremely difficult to dry) and the huge cap/cover makes it difficult to load into your backpack water sleeve. It retains no shape unless its completely full. It is only good for using with your MSR filter screwed into it. I was disappointed in the design and material. If you use it only with your filter, fill it all the way, and never get the outside wet, it is a decent piece of equipment. | |

| I have used the product on two 6+ day trips and found the contained water to taste more than reminiscent of chlorinated solvents or phthaltates. The folks at MSR ned to rethink the product line. | |

light weight? | |
| Rating: |  |
It seemed the right time to go lighter on a few standard items in my backpack, so I ordered a 4 liter MSR Dromlite Bag to replace my standard blue 4 liter MSR Dromedary Bag. Lo and behold, when I weighed the two sans caps & hoses, I found that my older bag was .65 ounces lighter. I'm guessing that the addition of the "low-profile handle" to the Dromlite adds weight.While the weight differential is minimal, it wasn't worth it to me to shell out $26 or so for a new bag. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the MSR hydration system and always carry an extra bite valve just in case. | |
