There's nothing worse than opening your bag after a dive and finding everything soaked. Whether you're on a liveaboard in the Red Sea or a quick shore dive on a rainy British morning, wet kit contaminating dry kit is a frustration every diver knows. Fourth Element's newly redesigned Lightweight Dry-Sacs are here to solve exactly that problem.
Introducing the Fresh New Look Fourth Element Dry-Sacs
Fourth Element have long been a brand that takes gear organisation seriously, and their latest refresh of the Dry-Sac range is a clear statement of intent. The new-look Dry-Sacs carry forward everything divers loved about the original — lightweight build, compact packing, and honest waterproofing — while introducing a cleaner colour-coded system and refined construction details that make everyday dive life noticeably easier.
The result is a bag that doesn't just protect your gear from water; it helps you think more clearly about how you pack, separate, and retrieve your kit before and after every dive.

What Makes Them Worth It
These aren't just glorified bin bags with a roll-top. Fourth Element have put genuine thought into the construction of the new Dry-Sacs, and it shows in the details.
Fully Tapped Seams
The fully taped seam construction is the most important element of any waterproof bag. Stitched seams left untaped are the number one source of leaks in lesser dry bags. On the Fourth Element Dry-Sac, every seam is taped from the inside, ensuring that water has no route in — even when the bag is pressed against wet kit or packed tightly inside a flooded dive bag.
Waterproof PU Coating
The outer fabric carries a polyurethane waterproof coating that repels water on contact. Combined with the taped seams, this creates a genuinely reliable barrier for your dry gear. It also means the exterior wipes clean easily — useful when the bag has been sitting in the bottom of a wet equipment crate.
Roll-Top Closure
The roll-top closure is a proven system for dry bags, and for good reason. By rolling the top of the bag down several times and fastening it, you create an air-tight and water-tight seal without any zips to corrode or buckles to break. The Fourth Element version rolls down cleanly and stays sealed reliably — no fiddling required, even with cold or gloved hands.

Sustainability at the Core
Fourth Element's commitment to sustainability is well established — it runs through everything they produce, from their recycled ocean plastic wetsuits to their ECONYL dive clothing. The new Dry-Sacs are no exception. The fabric is made from recycled materials, meaning your packing system has a lower environmental footprint without any compromise in performance or durability.
For divers who care about protecting the underwater world they explore, choosing kit made from recycled or responsibly sourced materials is an easy win. The Dry-Sac lets you organise your gear and do it with a clear conscience.
"Made from recycled materials, with performance that doesn't compromise — Fourth Element's Dry-Sacs are the sustainable upgrade your dive bag needs.”
Choose Your Size — A Dry-Sac for Every Job
The range is available in four sizes, each colour-coded so you can build a complete organisation system for your dive bag. Whether you're carrying a single change of clothes or sorting an entire equipment load-out for a liveaboard expedition, there's a size that fits.
The colour-coding makes it especially practical to use multiple sizes together. Pack the 5L with your dry phone, wallet and keys. Put your towel and base layers in the 15L. Use the 20L for your dive computer, mask and accessories. Your wetsuit or drysuit hood and gloves go in the 30L. Open the main bag after a dive and you know exactly where everything is — without even thinking about it.

A Simple Upgrade That Makes a Real Difference
Dry bags sound like a basic accessory, and in some ways they are. But the best gear is often the gear that solves simple problems so reliably that you stop thinking about them. The Fourth Element Lightweight Dry-Sacs do exactly that. Fully taped seams, a waterproof PU coating, a roll-top closure that works every time, made from recycled materials, colour-coded so your bag stays organised — there's no wasted feature here and no missing one either.
If your current system involves stuffing dry clothes into a plastic bag and hoping for the best, the upgrade is overdue. And if you already use dry sacs, the new Fourth Element range is one of the cleanest, lightest, and most thoughtfully designed options we've seen at this price point.
Available now at Mike's Dive Store in 5L, 15L, 20L and 30L. Order online for fast UK delivery, or come in and see us in store.
