Dry Sacks, Compression Sacks & Travel Pouches

Keep your trekking and travel gear protected, compact and organised with Gokyo dry sacks, compression sacks & travel pouches. The collection includes waterproof ultralight dry sacks, compression bags for bulky clothing, toiletry organisers, waterproof ziplock pouches and an insulated pouch for mobiles and batteries.

Waterproof Dry Sacks for Trekking & Travel

Dry sacks help separate and protect clothing, electronics and other essentials inside a backpack or duffle bag. The Makalu Waterproof Dry Sack Set provides three ultralight sizes for organising smaller items, while the Makalu 25 L Waterproof Dry Sack & Compression Bag provides greater capacity for clothing and larger trekking essentials.

Using separate dry sacks also makes packing easier on multi-day treks, allowing clean clothes, used clothing and important equipment to be organised independently while adding protection against moisture inside your luggage.

Compression Sacks for Jackets & Clothes

Insulated jackets, fleece layers and spare clothing can occupy a large amount of backpack space. The K2 Compression Sack uses adjustable compression straps and secure buckles to reduce the packed volume of soft gear. Made from lightweight polyester and weighing approximately 83 g, it is designed for treks & expeditions, camping, backpacking and travel.

Toiletry & Travel Pouches

Keeping toiletries separate from clothing and equipment makes packing more organised and helps reduce the risk of spills inside your luggage. The collection includes the lightweight Kalimpong Water-Resistant Toiletry Pouch for practical outdoor and travel use, along with Como and Alpino genuine leather toiletry pouches for travellers looking for a more premium organiser.

Protect Mobiles, Batteries & Electronics

Cold temperatures can affect the performance of phones, power banks and camera batteries. The Kaza Mobile & Battery Insulation Pouch uses Thermofill insulation and waterproof synthetic fabric, with three internal compartments for separating devices and small essentials. At approximately 40 g, it is designed for high-altitude treks, snow trips and winter travel where conserving battery power becomes important.

The collection also includes waterproof ziplock PVC pouches for laptops and smaller accessories, providing additional organisation and moisture protection for electronics while travelling.

Pack Better for Treks & Expeditions

Good packing is not only about fitting everything into a backpack. Separating gear by purpose makes it easier to find what you need without repeatedly unpacking your entire bag. Dry sacks can organise and protect equipment, compression sacks reduce the volume of bulky clothing, and smaller pouches keep toiletries, electronics and frequently used accessories in dedicated compartments.

FAQs

What is a dry sack used for?
A dry sack is used to organise gear and provide additional protection against moisture. It is particularly useful for separating clothing, electronics and other essentials inside backpacks and duffle bags during trekking, camping and travel.

What is the difference between a dry sack and a compression sack?
A dry sack primarily helps organise and protect contents from moisture, while a compression sack is designed to reduce the packed volume of bulky soft items such as jackets and clothing. Some products combine both functions.

Are compression sacks useful for trekking?
Yes. They are particularly useful for insulated jackets, fleece layers and spare clothing that occupy significant backpack space. The K2 Compression Sack uses adjustable straps and buckles to compress soft gear into a smaller packed volume.

What size dry sack should I use?
Smaller dry sacks work well for accessories, electronics and individual clothing categories, while larger options are better for jackets, multiple garments or larger equipment. Gokyo currently offers a set of three smaller sizes as well as a 25 L option.

Why use an insulated pouch for a mobile phone or batteries?
Battery performance can decline in very cold conditions. The Kaza pouch uses Thermofill insulation to help protect phones, camera batteries and power banks from rapid cold-weather battery drain.

Are toiletry pouches useful on treks?
Yes. A dedicated toiletry pouch keeps personal-care products organised and separated from clothing, food and technical equipment. The collection includes an ultralight water-resistant option suited to trekking and travel.
