Today is huge. Remote Designs is the culmination of the community we have built on this channel. Without you all I never would've dreamed to launch a dry bag line that has gone all over the world. Last year we sold out quickly and due to popular demand, I've brought it back for another round. This time adding a waterproof hip pack to the range. Thank you to everyone for the support!

Seriously can’t thank everyone enough for supporting. I pack each order up and they all mean so much. Cheers!
my order is in. looks like i have to plan a trip to give these hip packs a proper review.
Can’t wait to see the review my man!
There’s no more of this design :// why?
@@EMILNOVEL0 onward and upward! Currently going through an update that's going to be rad. Totally understand some people like the old design but based on sales this year, the new design language has been very well received. I appreciate you considering the gear, Andres!
@@GatewoodBrown definitely upward, im from the island San Pedro which is in Belize and there are fisherman everywhere here it’s basically a living here, saw 4 dudes from USA getting of a plane and coming here to visit the other day with Remote Designs bags the other day and fell inlove, all of them had nothing but praises for the brand I’m definitely getting one!!! S/O from San Pedro, Belize🇧🇿❤️
Amazingly beautiful views - great presentation - thank you!
Thank you so much!
I've been following you for more than half a year. I saw you from a video on best dry bags. I watched your video several times and found some professional and practical expressions. Thank you for sharing. You make canoeing more accessible and interesting
Thanks so much!
Just ordered the hip pack and am very excited to get it. I love supporting small businesses within the outdoor niche. Thanks for making a great product that definitely fills a need
Thank you so much THG! I’ve always enjoyed watching the hiking community on CZcams and it’s neat to see you guys embrace the gear for non-backpacking excursions. Thank you!
You give so much to the outdoors community with your videos and you are a great example of the entrepreneurial spirit. All the best.
Thank you so much Carp! Looking forward to a huge off season full of editing videos for the channel
I just got my order in for backpack and hip pack in sand....LOVE it! I've been waiting....NOW I just have to plan another kayak/camp trip!
Sand is a great look…definitely a strong addition to the line up!
Hell yeah! Excited to get some new bags! Yours are absolutely the best bags I own.
Thanks Chris! Shall we test them in the canyons??
Congrats on another successful launch bro! Use my remote designs gear every weekend and love it!
Thanks my man! You’re in there and filming a ton of these clips
Omg I’m so obsessed with you lol!! I love love your channel! And I’m going crazy knowing you created actual gear for us that’s cheap and soooo well made!!!!!!!!! 🤘🏽✨
It’s all supported 100% by y’all! Sales come through the CZcams channel and word of mouth and it’s been so cool to work with everyone that orders
Awesome! I do like the hip pack design!
Thanks, Jenny! Hope you've been well
Yessss..The wait is over!! Purchased both in sand and I’m so excited. Definitely going paddle boarding on the lake when I get them. And great prices too!
Cheers! Hope you enjoy it out on the lake!
Awesome! So stoked. Just ordered a back pack & really excited about the hip pack. It will work perfect for strapping to my kayak seat to put my vehicle keys and phone for quick grab OR my Gopro!! Keep them coming along with the incredible video! Blessings in this crazy world.
Thank you so much RT! I’m hopeful you enjoy the adventures with the gear. Definitely a good tool out in the wild
After months of waiting after I discovered you I finally got a backpack! Got it in sand. It will be ideal for the three day kayaking trip I’m taking with my bro’s. PUMPED! Love the 20L dry bags I got a while ago too!
I appreciate your patience! I wish they were released sooner but getting them before summer ended was clutch. Sand looks brilliant in person, can’t wait for you to see it. Definitely a solid piece for kayak camping!
Wow that was fast, they just came in and i love them im gonna test em out and plan this field review. thank you GB.
Good deal. Glad they made it to you. Those Houston addresses certainly don’t have to travel far haha
Can’t wait for my hip pack Gatewood! Thanks again for designing such a great bag and giving us a great deal
I appreciate the order Steve! You’ll have to let me know how you use it. Always fun to hear those stories
Purchased on this morning as soon as I saw the video. As a photographer and outdoor enthusiast having a drybag type backpack is clutch. Thank you so muchfor these bags and for your awesome content.
Thanks for the purchase Allan! These dry bags definitely are clutch for photo and video missions. No matter the weather you’re in good hands
I like that sand color. I’m going to have to try the backpack one 👍🏻👍🏻
Sand is a stellar look!
Sweet! Ordering a backpack soon.
Thank you bsp! Definitely a fun piece of kit
Thank you Gatewood for the beautiful green hip bag. It arrived very quickly and well wrapped. At this price, it's a steal. I would've paid a whole lot more for this waterproof hip bag. Can't wait to take it out for a day on the kayak. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for supporting Kathy! I was very excited seeing your order come through and packing it up for ya. Cheers!
Yea I hope your shipping to Canada that would be amazing these bags look legendary
I’m definitely trying to figure that out! A couple folks have asked about it
Purchased. Excited. Thanks for the sweet deal
Cheers Brian! Thank you so much for trusting in RD!
Been having the site pulled up checking Daily! Glad to finally been able to snag one!
Haha I appreciate it SLE! I appreciate your business!
i have been waiting for months to grab this bag bro, so pumped to get it. I commented on a vid about a year ago now talking about how i was getting into kayaking and hoping i would like it. Happy to say im going on my 6th trip in two weeks. We hit the upper quad a ton and you actually hit one of our fav camp sites in your last vid. love the content man, keep it up, we thoroughly enjoy it!! (glad to support you man!)
Man I appreciate the support so much! Funding these adventures one backpack at a time brother. You’ve been going on a lot of trips man! Texas has some of the best kayak camping for sure. Maybe see you out there sometime!
Gatewood Brown with the DEALS!!!! Get over there while the gettin is good folks! I am SO excited for this backpack. I am even more excited for the trip to the Narrows I am planning that will be the maiden voyage for my pack. Thank you for making such a great product, and great videos. Wishing you all the success!
pack lite its a trek lol the back pack worked great on my narrows trip
Thank you so much for real! The narrows are special for sure. This is a great backpack for this excursion, let me know how it goes! Also follow blue effigy’s advice, it’s spot on
Packing light is one thing I failed to do lol
@@GatewoodBrown my biggest mistake was i brought a old wetsuit and it was alot heavier coming back and shoes dont wear water shoes on the hike lol take 2 pair. i use sawer squeeze and 2 cnoc bags and filter to cut weight. stay hydrated and bring a headlight.
This is all key advice haha. Definitely count on your wetsuit being heavy during winter months. Appropriate shoes, water filtration and lots of food is key too
How am I just now hearing about this 🤯! Looks like some great products! 🤙
Thanks Nathan! Cheers man!
Such a sick bag!
Looks good on you too boi! Haha
Hip pack order is in! Looking forward to trying this bad boy out! Also buying a new yak within next two weeks!
Right on Jason! I put yours in the mail so you should get it soon
@@GatewoodBrown awesome
I bought the backpack and the hip pack. So excited to take them sailing.
These will be perfect for sailing! Now I kinda want to try sailing haha
NICE! Just ordered a hip pack. If you trust your DSLR in there then that's good enough for me👍
Thank you STA! Yeah it’s always a bold move taking the DSLR on the river but I feel good about the zippered dry bags
Awesome, man! These may be just what I need for a special...ummm... challenge, that I am looking at attempting in the near future. Especially the hip pack. I have been looking for one to use while biking. BTW, I noticed that you included some biking footage. I didn't realize that you rode, too. There aren't many of us in the CZcams world that have that much variance in content. Most are super specialized. Sometimes, I wonder if that is why my channel grows so slowly...but then I remember that I don't put out enough regularly scheduled content! LOL!
Haha thanks my man! It works great for biking, one of the main activities I designed it for. We love to mtb for sure! CZcams definitely rewards niching down in the beginning. Otherwise it’s hard to reach an audience. Choose one activity that you enjoy making videos for the most and push that hard
@@GatewoodBrown The problem is that I get bored easily. I have to spread my activities out! BTW, this challenge that we are looking at attempting would be right down your alley, but it is specifically designed for 50 year olds. You’re a ways from that age, but it is knocking at the door for me!
Aye! I've been checking out the stock on these bags daily. Glad to see I could finally snag one!
Thank you so much for picking one up Steven!
@@GatewoodBrown Super quick shipping, received it over the weekend. Can't wait to use it!
@@TheFriskyClicker love to hear that kind of feedback! Have fun out there using the gear
Love your videos keep up the great shots. is your career photography?
Thank you so much Daniel! Cinematography is my hobby, I’m a corporate desk jockey haha
ITS HERE!!!!!!! buy buy buy!!!!! badass dude!
Thank you Matt! Really appreciate the purchase
@@GatewoodBrown always dude! I appreciate the great product
It’s been a fun one!
@@GatewoodBrown loving the hip pack dude!
Looks great brother!
You’re making me wish I had waited to get my original RD Backpack so I could get one of these new snazzy ones! 😂
Haha I still use the old one interchangeably! It’s just as functional as the new version, trust me on that. You’re still in good hands!
@@GatewoodBrown oh I believe it. There’s a reason it’s my current EDC bag
Rad! Yeah the shell didn’t change at all.
Just came across your channel and started sharing it with my friends. Great site, content, encouragement, and ideas on here…
I wanted to check out your dry bags to support you, but for some reason I can’t get your website to come up for remote designs. Should I check back in a day or two, or is your site currently down? Thanks!
Hey Shawn! First of all welcome to the channel! Means a lot to have you sharing it with friends. Regarding the dry bags thank you! Site should be up and running. There’s a link in the description that’ll take you straight there
Ok when is your next kayaking trip. And can I join you plz. Love your videos. Learned a lot from them. I just go to Conroe lake and enjoy there with friends but I wanna get on a river it will be awesome
Wish we could include everyone on these trips! Unfortunately we can’t but I do want to do a subscriber paddle trip soon
Your hip pack product immediately caught my eye because of the zipper too that allows to grab something quick instead of messing with the roll top. The price is amazing to boot! But - any chance you will make one that doesn’t have such a giant logo? I’d rather not feel like I am wearing a billboard
Probably in the future! No plans yet as I’ll need to sell through current stock. I think it would be fun to have a patch on the front and a smaller logo elsewhere. Thank you for the interest!
@@GatewoodBrown Awesome, i'm going to buy one anyway, but I'll stay tuned for the update!
Right when I gotta pay some Bill's man dam been waiting for this one to come back in stock too
Oh no! Be sure to check back when you’re in a better spot after paying the bills. They may still be availble
man i want this in black! i love the price point
That would be slick!
I just got the hip pack (aka kayak, hiking, fishing bag). It is a nice size (It can fit my Nikon D750 with F4 24-120). I tested the waterproof feature by placing a paper towel in both zippers(awesome that even the front small pocket is waterproof) and then holding it under water agitating it for 4 minutes and then I left it for like 2 hours with some 4X4s on top of it, still bone dry.... I also got the backpack months ago and I love the size. I think they are both great for whatever you want to use them for. I am glad the new backpacks come with the velcro, mine has the original snaps which are a little questionable. I love the mounting points the backpack has, maybe hip pack v2.0 will add some loops to easily secure it. Both products seem to be bombproof. The TPU material is MUCH different than standard quality PVC. I wish my inflatable kayaks were built with it (they would have cost 3X as much though....).
Wow thank you so much for the feedback! This comment made my day. I’m excited for you to get out there and go on some adventures with it. Cheers KZ!!
I stumbled upon your videos recently as I have become obsessed with kayaking and kayak camping after also recently being introduced to the hobby. Your videos are excellent. I would love to own a piece of your gear that looks to be exceptionally well made, but unless I missed something, there doesn’t seem to be any availability on the website. When will these items be available again? Thanks.
Brandon thank you so much for the kind words and taking the time to watch videos. That’s the bulky image compliment! The new dry duffels will be available for purchase next week and the new roll top backpacks will be available in June. Stoked you would consider supporting in such a big way!
@@GatewoodBrown Will the original backpack and hip pack be coming back as well?
@@brandoncowan4743 they will not. Officially retired those designs!
Is there an option for shipping to Canada? Was looking forward to ordering one before I found out it's USA only.
Unfortunately not yet due to the cost but I’m trying to figure out a way to make it work
Hey! I have recently come across your videos and quickly became a huge fan! What river do you suggest for a houstonian’s first kayak camping trip?
Wow thank you so much for watching the videos! Are you trying to stay local? If so check out my Village Creek River Guide. That’s a great first time place
@@GatewoodBrown My boyfriend and I just bought our first kayaks, he got an ascend H12 & I scored a vapor 10 😂. Looking to eventually do as much river camping as we can around Texas. Village creek video looks great!! Hopefully hurricane ida doesn’t throw a wrench in the plans!
@@spree3467 you can have him carry all the stuff with that big ole boat! Haha. Yeah definitely smart to watch ida and adjust accordingly. The hill country would be a good option if you’re trying to go ASAP
@@GatewoodBrown thanks so much for the advice!! I’ll be sure to update 👍
nice! will the velcro straps on the backpack hold a fly rod tube?
They should. I have tried it yet but I shoved some tent poles in there and it worked great
@@GatewoodBrown cool, bought one yesterday from you. Cheers!
A fly rod tube fits the velcro straps, fyi. Great bag at a great price!
Love the design.
Would love to get the hip bag if they come in smaller size. I'm a a small person 5'3" and 120 lbs. I'm sure there are other petite people like me that would love to own this beautiful bag. Thank you.
Thank you for considering it! For perspective my wife Lisa is nearly your same dimensions so if you’re looking for a frame of reference she’s a great one.
Oh I had no idea. She looks tall in the videos. Thank you.
@@missUn1verse81 yeah she’s 5’4”!
Been really wanting the Backpack. Can you tell me the inner dimensions. Need to know if it will fit my long lens. Thanks. Love your videos.
Thank you so much Beth! I’ll check the dimensions for you
@@GatewoodBrown Thanks so much Gatewood
Hip pack would be nice again
I agree! Working on that as we speak…it’ll be worth the wait I think
Man if you still have backpack in sand in stock after the holiday I’m so buying it!!!
Fingers crossed! They’re going fast now but I’m trying to line up another round of stock for the holidays
Is there anything interior pictures of the backpack? Can't find any online.
Hey Joe! Shoot me a message on Instagram and I’ll send some photos over
Hey, is there any chance to ship to germany?
i would love to get one! these look so freakin cool!
greets!
I’m working on international shipping! I really appreciate your interest!
We are big fans of the backpack but wonder how it will sit over the hip pack. Hopefully take some weight off the shoulders. Guess I’ll have to buy and find out.
The backpack comes with a waist belt and chest strap so that will definitely help take weight off the shoulders!
Hey man how long does it take to receive them! I want me and we just bought the yeti panga but want to return and rock yours! We leave on a trip the 15th is the only bad part wasn’t sure how fast they ship out lol
Dude that would be sick to hav you rocking one! I ship them out next day after order so it’ll arrive by Wednesday / Thursday if you order tonight.
@@GatewoodBrown sweet ok I’m gonna call and see if we can return the panga tomorrow morning if so I’m ordering yours! Thanks so much man! We literally just bought it Saturday too 🤦🏼♂️I wish I would of seen this video b4 then lol
can you share any videos or pictures of the inside of the bag?
Next video I need to show the interior!
I hope they're still in stock next week. Been wanting one for almost a year haha. This is truly your calling. Thank you for remote designs.
You should be good Andrew. Still plenty to go around in every color too
Gatewood, ordered one on Friday, can't wait to gear test it, definitely going to purchase the hip pack too, going to be looking for the restock on the 20L bag also, have plans to purchase 3 or 4 of those for myself and gifts for my River Rat crew . I've been plugging you and remote designs website all over my Illinois kayak pages.
how is that hip bag attached to your kayak between your legs?
I loop the hip straps around the base of the seat to make it secure, but also in useable reach while paddling. I’ve found that works perfect for me
Hi, I just tried to purchase one of the backpacks but the only country listed is American. Would you ship to Australia? Also there is no contact option/information on your website.
Unfortunately we don’t ship to Australia yet. Maybe one day thoigh!
I don't see anywhere on your site the size of this dry bag. I know you mentioned it in one of your recent videos tho.
The backpack is roughly 28 liters in size
Got the 5L to carry my Glock G40 while kayaking
It should work well for that!
What type of fabric are the packs made of?
1680D TPU. Very durable material that has withstood the test of time. I’ve been putting them through their paces for 2 years now and not even close to a sign of failing
What are the dimensions of the backpack
Hi, can the backpack helps in floating on water? *I am bad at swimming
I would only use it for that in an emergency situation. It is not designed to be a flotation all device
@@GatewoodBrown and the IP rating for this backpack?
I haven’t had it rated but it is water tight. I don’t recommend for extended submersions but certainly it’s withstood all the abuse I’ve put it through
Why are these not on your site anymore I was literally about to buy one (still will)
They ran out of stock! The new roll top backpack arrives in June and the new zippered version will launch in 2024. It means a lot that you’d considering supporting through remote designs. Definitely the biggest contributor to making content!
@@GatewoodBrown awesome looking forward to the new zipper backpack i loved the last one in tan guess i was too late getting it i had been watching your videos for a while and was just now able to get one LOL!
Where i can buy this gwar in Europe? Thank you
Will my Sony a7c fit in the hip bag?
It will! I shoot an A7iii with a sigma 24-70 2.8 which is a massive setup. Fits great!
@@GatewoodBrown heck yeah! Are you going to make any new colors? I’m hoping for a blue one like the color of the zipper on the green bags you have
@@IMGhostRogue not this year or next but one day that would be slick! Blue is my favorite color so there’s definitely an emphasis on that color with the gear
Are you still selling the hip pack? Super interested in using if for camera gear. Thanks!
I’ll have a hip pack available next year! Agreed, I use the hip pack for my big camera since it’s so quick to access for filming
@GatewoodBrown great to hear! Thanks for the response. I just found your channel and your gear, and I'm absolutely hooked. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience in an extremely well shot and well produced way! Would love to hear more about your filming/ bts of your adventures! Thanks again!
@@noahsohacki5891 thank you Noah! Stoked to have you along for the ride. Posting these videos is made better through interactions like this. Cheers to that! Man one day I’ll do a run through on what it takes to film this trips. It’s nothing crazy but could be insightful
@@GatewoodBrown another interested hip pack customer. Looks like a much needed design in the space. Perfect for SUP.
Hey brother whats the name of your kayak?
I use an old town sportsman 120!
What are the backpack's dimensions?
Let me check for ya!
What are the dimensions of the hip bag? If I can fit my camera in it, it might be a winner for me!
I’ll have to check actual dimensions but it fits my Sony a7iii with sigma 24-70 f2.8. That’s no small rig and I find it to be perfect for storing it
How do you want to be contacted with questions about your products? I don't see any contact information on the website. The returns page says to email you, but it doesn't show an email. I am not looking to return anything. I am actually considering pruchasing, but I have a few questions I would like to ask first. Thanks for the help.
That's a great question! I'm free for email at gatewood_brown@yahoo.com or instagram DM. Whichever is easiest for ya. Thanks for the interest!
Thanks. I created an account on you site and responded to the email you guys sent.
@@chuckwqn that should go straight to me. Thanks my man!
Are they not making these anymore?
Currently out of stock! I’ll be releasing a submersible duffel this spring and a submersible roll top backpack this summer
@@GatewoodBrown also, if you're going to get them back in stock can I pay you for one now and you send it when you get thwm back in, so I don't miss when they come back in stock?
And any chance you might make this zipper top pack in a 35L or 40L?
@@Drebole I should have plenty in stock when they come back in this summer. All new design too so I won’t be doing a pre-order. Rather just available when stocked up. I’d hate to take pre-orders and then the supply chain messes with delivery timing. The roll top will be 30L and pretty good size. I do eventually want to make a 40L zipper but the duffel may be a good bigger option at 60L. It’ll be backpack primarily for the carry system instead of grab handles
I have tons of roll top styles, not the biggest fan of them. I may buy the duffel just to support you and torture test in the ozarks.
@@Drebole That would mean a lot! It'll have a TIZIP closure which is among the best waterproof zippers out there. Really trying to step it up this year. The ozarks and Arkansas have quickly become a favorite destination of mine! Probably going to do 2 rivers up that way this year.
better hurry before i order them all lol
Haha I can always count on you to show up on launch day! Saw your order come through, thank you so much! Very generous
👋😎👍
Cheers and howdy!
Just ordered your duffel, cant wait to rep it on the next video with @OzarkMediaCo
Keep up the great content, happy to support great talent
You’re a legend thank you! I’ll pack that up this morning and get it sent your way. Stoked to see y’all on your next trip video! Grant sure knows how to make a trip recap that highlights the beautiful rivers you paddle. Cheers!
Just sent you a DM on Instagram! I love how I found this bag as I was looking at other companies bags but have ultimatley chosen this one because of your content and charcter! keep up the great work and products Gatewood!
Glad we could connect man!
