About: I joined Gear Patrol because I love searching for gear in my free time, and I felt the need to pass on my knowledge. As an avid reader of everything online, my bookmark list is about as bloated as George Costanza’s wallet; needless to say, my tastes are eclectic. So, readers, prepare yourselves for variety.
That said, I know that you work hard for your disposable income, so if I recommend something you can be sure I’ve done the research to know that it’s worth your while.
Outside of the gear, I am a born and bred New Englander who recently completed a 2 year stint below the Mason-Dixon Line, and I’m glad to have the Sox and Pats on local programming again (Please refrain from any TB Rays or NY Giants jokes). I’m also a Social Media dork so feel free to hit me up on Twitter @jongaffney.
I graduated not too long ago with a BS in Marketing and, according to my friends, an MS in the History Channel. As a collegiate athlete, my interest and passion for sports and fitness has carried with me. I’m always up for an adrenaline fix whether it’s from the gym, from skydiving, or from an intense game of ultimate.
That’s me in a nutshell, and if any one has suggestions, comments, disagreements, or something you think I should review just shoot me an email. Slainte!See Authors Posts (61) on Mon, Oct 19, 2009 | Email To A Friend

The urban commute can be a harrowing and dirty business, even when the weather’s nice. When inclement weather comes a calling though, it’s a challenge to keep yourself dry, even more so your beloved gear. The SealLine Urban Backpack is made to solve that very problem. As one of the world’s leading water resistant bag manufacturers, SealLine has taken the technology applied to bags for canoeing and kayaking, and adapted it for the urban commuter. The Urban Backpack is constructed with a RF-welded, PVC-free 600D PU-coated polyester body, and a water tight roll down top, secured with their QuickClip technology. We found the QuickClip to be the key to this crossover bag, allowing easy access while still maintaining water resistance. The external pocket also allows easy addition on modular storage with their M.A.P. system. With it’s two sizes and well ventilated back pad, you’ll be ready for any commuting hazards mother nature throws your way.

Author’s Note: With only one main interior compartment, we’d recommend picking up the Urban Backpack Organizer as a handy addition.
Cost: $120
