    Attn: Macpac Lattitude xp owners..

    Can someone who has one of these bags lay the stuff sack flat and give me the approximate dimensions? I have managed to lose my stuff sack somewhere so I want to order a roll top dry bag with similar dimensions. They are a nice size when packed up and the sack is really neat with its roll top and clip closure so I'm bloody gutted I lost it and most of the generic replacement stuff sacks on trademe etc are larger than needed. Any help appreciated. Cheers

    One of these buggers, some of them are a dark red and grey and some blue and grey like mine. Mine is the XL/Wide version but they all come in the same bags. Cheers

    The bag these comes with is a dry bag, it's a neat little setup with a drawstring inside and then a roll top with clip closure. Was a bloody good setup and quite small compared to most bags

    I've got a sanctuary 800 if that helps? I'm heading Bush for a few days so it's all packed up but can measure when back.

    yeap that could be helpful if I can't get something sorted mate cheers. I'm thinking of dragging it in with me to the likes of Bivouac and stuffing it in their dry bags until I find one that suits it, bloody expensive though when they are cheap as chips online.

    I use a XP800 or 900 I can't remember but I now use a Sea to summit compression sack as it compresses down smaller than the original macpac one.

    I have the Sanctuary 800 XP XL- because I'm obviously soft - and can offer the following info:

    Total stuff sack length : 50 cm
    Length of inside volume where the bag actually sits: 31 cm (the remaining 19cm being the waterproof closure)
    Diameter of the base: 20 cm

    Hope that helps and good luck next week. Look forward to seeing some results of the walk.

    Hi Guys please think twice before purchasing from Macpac. They are actively anti firearm ownership and do nothing for out sport. Their history using manufacturers who have terrible labour abuses are well documented. I know its hard when everything seems to be made in China. Thanks

    Look into the sea to summit compression dry sacks. I have one for my sleeping bag. Even better than the original macpac one. https://m.torpedo7.co.nz/products/AN...FY22wAodAH8EZQ
