When it comes to embarking on adventurous journeys or long-distance travels, having reliable luggage is paramount. For outdoor enthusiasts and riders, durable and water-resistant luggage can make all the difference in keeping gear and belongings safe and dry. 509 offers a range of purpose-built luggage options, each designed with specific compartments and organization to cater to the needs of adventurers. But are 509 luggage items waterproof?
All 509 luggage items are equipped with a PU coating applied to the inside, making them water-resistant. This PU (Polyurethane) coating acts as a protective barrier that repels water, ensuring your gear remains dry and protected in light rain or snowfall. While 509 luggage is water-resistant, it is important to note that it may not be fully waterproof and may not withstand prolonged exposure to heavy rain or water immersion. Therefore, additional protective measures, such as using waterproof covers or dry bags, may be necessary in extreme weather conditions or water-related activities.
PU, short for Polyurethane, is a versatile polymer used in various applications, including coatings for outdoor gear and apparel. PU coatings provide enhanced water resistance and durability, making them a popular choice for protecting luggage and other items from moisture. The flexible and lightweight nature of PU coatings allows for breathable and comfortable use while effectively keeping water out.
